From Daydream to Direction at the Career Crossroads

Does this describe you?

  • Overthinking what’s the “right” path?

  • Bored and not living your purpose?

  • Under-valued and underutilized?

  • Feel like you were meant to do something else?

Then coaching is just right for you

If this is your first career change, or your next one, I’ve got you covered. Career change typically means there’s a personal identity change happening now too. I know what it’s like to be faced with the crossroads. I know oh so well what it feels like wasting time in a role that doesn’t come close to tapping into the capacity you know is inside you.

As a certified executive coach for the last decade, I’m hired by over-thinking, mid-career professionals who want to reach their next level. During that soul-searching, they may second-guess themselves. They’re not sure how to face all the unknowns ahead.

What these introverts, perfectionists, and achievers have in common is wanting to make a bigger impact in the world. They aren’t done learning. They’re tired of quick fixes and compromising the part of themselves the feel is the right time to set free.

    Lakshmi

  • "This is a very practical book. Is designed as a workbook for you. Fill out and write extensive notes. This makes it a lot more actionable than many other books where you are. Just supposed to read the information and hopefully do something with it. The book follows a clear process with little fluff and gets straight to the point. However, it's clearly well researched and thought through to walk you through incremental steps and follows a system. Me I would strongly recommend this book to anybody who is looking for clarity in their life."

Results-Based, Career Coaching Programs

GOAL SETTING

To start, we define a career goal and set clear intentions in a 1-hr workshop. We identify blockers and visualize outcomes so we both know what success looks like. You prepare by completing a Self-Assessment. We capture the revised goals inside the Ultimate Goals Template (see image to the right).

COACHING + ACCOUNTABILITY

Stay consistent with regular coaching every two weeks for best results. Book appointments in advance.

Sessions are up to 60 minutes and include built-in accountability to help you follow-through so your words and actions match.

FINDING PASSION WORKBOOK

Go from daydreaming to action plan with 10 chapters and 20+ self-discovery exercises from my book, Finding Passion. We’ll add structure to your soul-searching.

RUNWAY FOR RESULTS

A typical career program is 4-6 months. However, we work at your pace, and check in every three months to ensure you’re on track.

We review progress, track and revise goals. We also go the extra mile to ensure changes (and habits) are maintained and fully integrated beyond our coaching.

NO EXCUSES APPROACH

In coaching, there will be setbacks. Life will get busy and you will encounter distractions. It’s my role to help hold you accountable to your goals, including why these are important now.

When setbacks do happen, we unpack them for the feedback to help refine and improve strategies.
