Anchor Cards: Shaping Your Work x25

Anchor Cards

People often sense that their work could feel more meaningful, balanced, or aligned โ€” yet struggle to translate these reflections into clear, practical steps.

They may feel uncertain about what they truly need from their work, how their values fit with their current role, or how to make intentional changes without feeling overwhelmed or stuck.

These Anchor Cards are designed to support exactly this process. They offer small, focused prompts that invite individuals to pause, reflect, and re-imagine their relationship with work in a grounded and constructive way. The cards can be used privately for self-reflection, shared in meaningful coaching conversations, or integrated into therapeutic, educational, or organizational settings โ€” helping bridge the gap between insight and purposeful action.

This product includes 25 identical decks each with 5 Shaping Your Work Anchor Cards (micro-tools) โ€” compact, visual, and evidence-informed exercises drawn from practical approaches to career reflection and work design. Each card translates key insights into short, actionable reflections, offering flexible use both within sessions and in everyday working life.
