What Is Career Coaching?

Here’s what career coaching is definitely not: Handing you a job, writing your entire resume, applying to positions for you, telling you what you want to hear, telling you there is only one right way to work.

Here’s what career coaching IS: Advice from a trained professional, tough questions that will help you evaluate your goals and next steps, guidance on how to approach your job search, accountability when you need it, support when you’re feeling discouraged, personalized strategies to help you move forward.

Is career coaching for me?

Maybe! If you’re super happy in your job, have no plans to leave, and know exactly what you want to be when you grow up – then you’re probably all set. 

BUT if you are wondering what your next steps are, thinking about making a change, stuck in a career rut, spinning your job search wheels, or are looking to reenter the workforce and don’t know where to start – then yes, coaching might be exactly what you need.

Professional athletes need coaches. High flying executives need coaches. Coaching doesn’t mean you don’t know what you are doing. It means you know exactly what you are doing – you’re asking for help!

How could we work together?

I work with clients 1:1 on career visioning, job search strategies, networking, resumes, cover letters, and interview skills. I absolutely love this work and I promise we can have some fun with it too! We can go super tactical if you want, or we can dig deep into your hopes and dreams. Either way, a mix of both, I’m down for whatever works best for you. As long as we get you where you want to go!
