it doesn’t matter what your salary is if your job makes you cry
1:1 Career Transformation coaching
-
This is not the future I wanted...wtf do I do now?
I see you.
You’ve worked your face off for years to get to this level in your career, and now that you’re here, you hate your life.
It’s easy to think that getting a new job— or FINALLY getting that raise or promotion— is the answer.
But I’m here to tell you: if you accept the same conditions, you WILL find yourself back in the exact same place.
I don’t want that for you.
-
What if you could have both the paycheck and the energy, and didn't have to choose?
A lot of career and executive coaches will take your money to rework your resume, spruce up your personal brand, and help you line up some interviews.
That’s not what I do.
Making money doesn’t have to make you miserable. But first you have to decide what you WANT, rather than what you are willing to hold your nose and endure.
That’s where we begin.
-
Stop letting them dictate your terms
When you don’t know what your own terms are, you keep agreeing to theirs.
It’s no wonder you feel resentful, even abandoned; the person whose job it was to negotiate on your behalf— YOU— didn’t know how to do it yet, so she has been accepting some less than optimal conditions on your behalf.
Everything changes for my clients when they realize they’ve been leaving power, sanity, and money on the table.
When you know in your bones what you are and are not willing to accept, and what your contributions are worth, you present yourself, negotiate, and generate opportunities from a position of confidence and power.

Becoming the "CEO of ME"
Most Career Transformation clients make back their coaching investment (and then some) in a SINGLE new salary or pay raise negotiation.
While the pay increases are usually quite significant (230% is the record so far!), for most clients, “more money” is not the most important benefit.
When you become the CEO of Yourself, you become able to
꩜ negotiate more sustainable, humane work conditions
꩜ demand pay and title equity and fairness
꩜ refuse shitty bosses, cutthroat cultures, and unpromotable “office housework”
꩜ co-create your schedule and role with your employer to work WITH not against your health, family commitments, and personal passions
꩜ perform and be brilliant in your role, now that you aren’t incurring abuse and seething resentment on the job.
-
make unexpected connections. make different decisions.
Working with the structured techniques they learn in my coaching practice, career transformation clients develop a healthier, more sustainable and regenerative relationship to their work and career trajectory.
They’re RECOVERING from people pleasing and perfectionism.
They’re reassessing their goals, defining “success” across their work and life such that when they get it, they actually FEEL SUCCESSFUL.
They’re rooting out old kneejerk habits and limiting beliefs that incline them to say yes too quickly.
Instead, they build new critical self-reflection habits that give them the CONFIDENCE that comes from EVIDENCE to keep growing towards that feeling of success, and to TRUST IT when they get there.
This work is deeply personal and transformative.
It’s not fast.
It’s not cheap.
But the time and money you invest in yourself will keep paying you back forever.

of all the Brilliant, ambitious women who came to me
outperforming their role by 1-3 levels
with insufficient recognition or compensation
ready for something bigger and to get paid accordingly,
I have a 100% success rate supporting them to make their next confident move within 3-6 months.
The majority have decided to search for a new job
Thus far ALL of my job searchers have done it in 3-6 months
ALL have negotiated for themselves more desirable roles and work conditions, better benefits including signing bonuses and equity grants, and in most cases significant level and pay raises (the largest was 230%!)
Of the stayers, one loved her company and team enough to advocate for and get the promotion to head of department, with the raise and recognition she had hoped for. She’s still kicking ass two years later!
One stayed another year, collected mad money, planned her part time consulting business, and has now retired early!
Ready to make your move? Let’s do this!
