NEW FELLOW MASTERMIND
NEW FELLOW MASTERMIND
Congratulations! You are a new FELLOW!
With the celebrations over,
it's time to Create Your Future.
The first thing that I felt when I FINALLY crossed the finish line and held my long awaited FSA certificate in my hand was… uncertainty.
The road to this point was so clear. Pass the exams. Get promoted. Repeat.
How do I navigate the next steps in my career (and my life) without a structured path?
I invite you to join a select group of new FSA’s and FCAS’s to set off on the adventure together.
With the insight and guidance from a seasoned actuary and coach (me), the future is yours to create.
– Aree
The road behind was challenging… and you loved it… well, most of it.
And now you are standing at the edge of a wide open landscape of opportunities.
You might be thinking…
- What are the next technical and soft skills I will need, and how can I learn them?
- How can I effectively manage and/or mentor others?
- What is this work-life unicorn I hear about?
- How do I find allies along the way?
- In short… what’s next?
Cohorts are limited in size to ensure that you get the most out of both the community nature and individual attention. Yes, you will be more than a candidate number here!
The next cohort will kick off soon.
The application process is open now! (Okay, it is not rigorous… just a conversation with Aree to start strategizing about your future and see if the mastermind is a good fit for you.)

FAQ
When all the participants are signed up for a cohort, we will work together to determine the dates and times for the group sessions to ensure that we can get as many people to all of them as possible. The group sessions are virtual and happen on the zoom platform. Sessions will be recorded and made available to all participants to revisit or catch up on what was missed.
Each participant will have two one-on-one individual coaching sessions with Aree. These will be scheduled by each participant and can happen at any time from the first group session until four weeks after the final group session. Each participant can determine what when to schedule those to best meet their needs. Individual coaching sessions will be 50 minutes long and be conducted either on zoom or audio only call.
No. While all of the topics that we delve into are common concerns around the same time that you finish exams, they are topics that you could be challenged with at any point in your career. If you might like to work on these topics in a group environment, please apply!
Many employers have budgets available for professional development and training. Participants may consider seeking partial or full reimbursements from their employers given the benefits that this program has in the workplace including greater job satisfaction, decreased burnout, increased drive, and skill development. Contact Aree for materials and a letter that you can customize to submit to your employer.
Yes. We are able to create cohorts of internal teams. The structure is similar and topics can be adjusted to reflect the company structure and culture.
There will be four group sessions of one hour each. These are a mix of training, discussion, exercises, and coaching. There are two one-on-one sessions of about an hour each. Exercises/homework will be provided to participants at each group session. Those who benefit the most will commit to spending a small amount of time on these assignments between sessions.
