If you’ve been thinking about a move away from your current role for a while now, chances are summer was when you let the idea drift to the back burner. You’re not alone.

It’s been a long, warm one. When the evenings stretch out and you’re with the kids, or your friends, or simply enjoying the sunshine, the itch to change something about your working life tends to fade. It’s hard to feel restless about your job halfway through a barbecue. Nothing wrong with that at all – it’s exactly what a good summer is all about.

But Autumn has a way of changing that

The rain’s back, the lawn’s green again, and the old routine has a way of reasserting itself. With it comes that thought you parked a few months ago:

Is this really what I want to be doing? Could I be building something of my own instead?

If that’s true for you, it’s worth remembering how other Radfield franchise partners reached exactly the same point.

Rob Dancy spent 25 years advising other business owners before backing himself, and broke even four months ahead of the Radfield model’s target. Julie Scott had no care background at all when she started, and has built a business now turning over around £1.1m. Glyn Clark was made redundant from a 40-year finance career at 57, but chose to start a Radfield business rather than retire, and at 65 has no intention of slowing down.

None of them was waiting for the perfect moment to land in their lap. The right time was never about the calendar, their age or the season, it was simply the point where merely thinking about a change stopped being enough.

Is that where you are now?

If so, let’s pick up where the summer left off. If that “what if?” has started making itself heard again, let’s have a conversation about where it could take you.

If you’re new to the Radfield Home Care franchise, and are ready to dig a little deeper, now is the perfect time, and I would be more than happy to help.
