Everything starts with a Starter Session. That’s where we get clear on your situation, your goals, and what’s actually getting in your way.

During that session, we’ll dig into your specific context and map out a practical action plan to help you move forward. You’ll leave with clear next steps - whether that’s something you execute on your own or something we work through together.

If it makes sense to continue, I’ll recommend the level of support that best fits your situation. For many people, that’s Career Lab, my 90-day coaching program. For others, it might be a one-off session or a lighter-touch option. After that, some clients continue with Pocket Coaching for ongoing support as they execute.

The structure is versatile and flexible, so how we use it is always tailored to you.

Short answer - because career challenges are rarely as simple as they seem on the surface!

Most people come in with an idea of what they need, but once we look more closely, the highest-impact solution is often different or more complex. The Starter Session allows us to focus on the right problem and identify the right solution from the beginning.

It also gives both of us the opportunity to make sure we’re a good fit before moving into a larger engagement. That way, you’re making decisions based on a real coaching experience with me, not a splash sales presentation.

It’s a focused, 30-minute coaching session - just you and me.

We’ll look at what’s prompting the change you’re considering, what you’re trying to achieve, and what’s been getting in your way. From there, I’ll help you identify the most effective path forward and outline a clear action plan.

After the session, you’ll receive a detailed follow-up with your recommended next steps and, if relevant, a plan for how we could continue working together.

No! It's an introductory coaching session.

The session is fully focused on helping you move forward. I don’t pitch services during the conversation.

If you ask about next steps, I’ll answer directly. Otherwise, any recommendations about working together come afterward in your follow-up, alongside your action plan. That way, the session itself stays focused on you and your situation.

That depends on what you need.

Some people take their action plan and run with it on their own. Others decide to continue working together. If that’s the case, I’ll recommend the option that best supports your goals: whether that’s Career Lab, a one-off session, or another form of support.

There’s no requirement that you continue.

Career Lab is a structured, 90-day coaching engagement designed to help you make meaningful progress on your specific career goal - whether that’s landing a new role, designing a career pivot, or addressing a complex career challenge.

Pocket Coaching is ongoing, month-to-month support via WhatsApp. It’s designed to support execution after the deeper work is done. It ensures that any quick questions and real-time decisions are handled promptly, instead of having to wait for a scheduled session.

In Career Lab, we build the strategy and do the heavy lifting. In Pocket Coaching, we maintain momentum and handle the day-to-day decisions that come up along the way, and you stay on track as new situations arise.

That’s completely fine and actually fairly common!

Some people get exactly what they need from the Starter Session and don’t need additional support. Others may benefit from one or two follow-up conversations rather than a full program.

If a more intensive engagement isn’t necessary or the right fit, I’ll tell you. My goal is to help you move forward effectively, not to steer you into a service you don’t need.

I work with professionals across a wide range of industries and career stages, from early-career to senior leaders.

Many of my clients are navigating career transitions, seeking better alignment or compensation, or trying to move forward in environments that feel complex or unclear. While a large portion of my client base comes from fields like media, tech, and journalism, I work across many industries.

No!

I specialize in supporting women and people of color because I have deep experience helping clients navigate the specific challenges they often face in the workplace. That said, I work with clients of many backgrounds.

My approach, particularly the focus on decision-making, identity, and how you experience your work, is valuable for anyone facing a career transition.

I work with clients who are targeting the U.S. job market, and who are typically based in the U.S, mainly because my experience is within the American private sector.

If you’re based elsewhere you’ll need to be pursuing opportunities within the U.S. or remotely with American companies for me to be the right fit, but I have helped people from around the world to navigate the (often very different!) U.S. work culture.
