If you are unable to get to a face to face Career Coven this Circle is for You! Meet with likeminded people from all over the world and get support and advice from international sources. All occupations, age, gender and spiritual practises welcome as long as you are open to the concepts in Staceys books. The International Online Career Coven for the 1st quarter of 2008 will begin mid March with introductions and commitments to the guidelines. The goal of the Career Coven is too provide a safe, confidential place where a group of people can share their concerns about how to be materially and spiritually rich at the same time. All are welcome as long as you are open to the fact that language and approach is that of ritual. Our experience during the inaugural international CC showed that it really is imperative to have read Stacey's book in order to fully understand and participate. If you are leading an onsite CC and one of your members is having difficulty getting to the meetings, please feel free to pass this on to them. Also, if you are participating in an onsite CC and want to also participate in the online CC, you are welcome. However, consider that information that needs to be kept confidential from one CC should not be passed to another CC.

New Career Coven starting soon in Melbourne. At last!! Please contact Stacey via email stacey@themodernwitch.com for details.



I am a firm believer that you can only get so far in certain times during your life without support. Do not get me wrong, I am a fiercely independent type of a person. I always thought that I could do whatever I set my mind to, alone if necessary. However, I have come to believe that this is a slightly erroneous view. I look around me and see many talented, enthusiastic, and skillful business people who feel very alone and isolated. Some of these same people make climbing the corporate ladder or achieving goals harder than it needs to be. These are the ‘heroes’, the ultra-competitors, or as I call them, the Alone Rangers. They are those of us who are afraid to be human, afraid to show any vulnerability and ask for support or help.

Particularly around transition and change, there is generally a lot of fear and chaos. This is where it is hard to operate at your peak on your own. Think about the last time you were really stressed or frightened…could you trust yourself to perform at your best? It is times like these that you are sailing into uncharted territory and wouldn’t it be great to have a couple of extra rowers and a brilliant navigator by your side? Isn’t that just common sense and good management?

What I call a Career Coven can be that crew. You are certainly still the captain of your own career, but you have a crew of like-minded people to give a variety of opinions, advice, and to have faith in you when you do not. This is a crew that is happy and without agenda helping you get to your destination.

A Career Coven is a group of people, as few as two or as many as you feel comfortable with, who get together on a regular basis to support each other in achieving their career and business goals.

Some Career Covens meet fortnightly others monthly or quarterly; how often and where you meet is up to you and the group.

Career Covens should be:

:: Be a safe and confidential place to discuss your career and any current obstacles.

:: Be a forum to discuss and discover ideas and solutions.

:: Offer support to individuals looking to transition from one career, identity, or field into another.

:: Facilitate the raising of energy to accomplish individual and group intentions.

:: Be a non-aggressive place to network.

:: Follow Wiccan guidelines in ethics, although members do not have to be Wiccan or even interested in Witchcraft to participate.

:: Be free and non-profit (except when assisting members to make profit!)

Should you be interested in joining an existing Career Coven or obtaining Career Coven Guidelines in order to start one, please contact me on at stacey@themodernwitch.com
or grab a copy of my book ‘There’s a Witch in the Boardroom’. Twice a year I hold Career Coven Workshops which outline the process and offer coaching to ‘Boardroom Witches’, at no cost to those who wish to come along. Again contact me for dates and details or keep checking our Workshop timetable.
