The goal is to see where clients are now and plan where they want to go. We encourage clients to use our career coach Jessica’s book, "The Hidden Gem Within," for self-reflection.

Journaling helps clients stay clear and focused. It lets them take control of their career journey with our support. We also ask for past performance reviews.

We recently worked with a very unhappy client. This person had been in the same role at their current job for 5 years and was passed up for many promotions. During our coaching sessions, we got to the bottom of what they wanted to do with their career and what was holding them back.
We decided to focus on skill-building, networking, and refining their job search strategies. As a result, they landed an upgraded job in a field that they love. This person broke free from the rut they were in and became confident in their career. These are the kinds of transformations that make us feel so rewarded.

I’ve always been passionate about helping people find work that excites them and aligns with their values.
