What stage of change is Emily complains daily about her current employment as she is highly stressed due to not being happy. She has been looking to change employment and has been looking for other job opportunities online but has not yet applied to any of the jobs that she bookmarked as being interested in. She has also talked with friends and family about changing jobs in which they respond with encouragement and positivity. Emily is hopeful that she can get hired for a lot of the jobs that she is seeing online but again still has not applied due to not having enough time or attention to sit down and complete the applications
