 g.philpott@reading.ac.uk

 ""Do or do not, there is no try" might be a cheesy line from the greatest film* ever, but it does get to the heart of the matter. "Try" often indicates that something is holding us back - maybe confidence; doubting it's the right path; worries about what others might think, or something else. Understanding that is the key to Careers Consultancy, and that's why I enjoy my role. 

*Empire Strikes Back, fact not an opinion!"
