Hi, I'm Phoebe Gavin

Founder of Better with Phoebe

This is my story:

I'm a career and leadership coach, currently making my mark on the internet as the nemesis of American Corporate Brainwashing – the pervasive cultural messaging that convinces us to put work above everything else in life.

I've inspired and equipped hundreds of ambitious professionals with the skills and strategies they need to design, build, and grow a fulfilling, balanced career.

My emotionally-intelligent, action-oriented approach to coaching has caught the attention of top US publications including TIME, Fortune, Quartz, The Huffington Post, Slate, Inc., and Fast Company.

Reeling from a traumatic military deployment and facing the financial uncertainty of the Great Recession in 2008, I got lucky and connected with a mentor who helped me find my footing. The experience saved my life, set me up for a bright professional career, and inspired me to find as many opportunities to mentor others as possible.

I've put mentoring others at the center of my career well before I launched my coaching practice, helping my colleagues, teammates, and direct reports.

Today I work with my clients to build radical clarity, design custom career growth plans, and leverage effective (and sustainable!) tactics so they can navigate the fast paced and ever-changing labor market without burning out or losing their soul.
