1:1 career coaching to get you unstuck

Take the first step to getting UNSTUCK and schedule a Discovery Conversation

You didn't build a career like this by accident.

You solved problems other people gave up on, said yes when it mattered, and kept your head down through the parts that weren't fun.

And somewhere in the last year or two, the ground shifted.

The job still looks right on paper.

It doesn't feel right anymore.

Maybe you're already past your breaking point.

Maybe you're nowhere near one and this has just been quietly wrong for a while.

Either way is reason enough to start.

You’re sick and tired of:

  • feeling so exhausted and unclear

  • not knowing where to start to make things better

  • pretending that everything is okay

What you really want is:

  • to look forward to the work week with happy anticipation

  • to feel worry-free enjoyment during your time off

  • to feel confident, energetic, and hopeful

  • "Jeanette is an excellent person to chat through ideas and asks really insightful questions. I could tell she really tries to get to know her clients and understand what will make them happy in a career as well as in life."

    LC

  • "I highly recommend working with Jeanette. She is a good listener, asks helpful questions and provides insightful comments. She was able to nudge me to be realistic and honest myself without judgement. Her coaching helped me to figure out how to move forward to a more beneficial career path."

    NB

  • "Jeanette has been an invaluable support during both my career transition. She listens attentively and consistently asks the right questions that prompt deep reflection on my current situation and future goals. Each session evolves from brainstorming ideas to identifying concrete steps needed to reach my objectives and overcome challenges. Her approach is both realistic and positive, especially considering my already busy schedule. Having someone to guide and oversee my process has been immensely helpful. I’ve already seen a positive impact on my career, starting from week one."

  • "Jeanette is amazing. She helped me set goals and intentions and work through some issues I was experiencing, while giving valuable feedback regarding my current situation. I have really enjoyed working with her!"

    HC

  • "Jeanette is a great coach and I deeply value the time we've spent together and the progress she has helped me make in my life. I wouldn't be this far along in my decisions and goals or have this much courage to push forward to make decisions without her support."

    LC

It’s not that you haven’t already tried to fix things

and it’s left you feeling more discouraged and frustrated than ever

  • You’ve probably wondered if your problem is with this particular job in this particular organization and wish you could get some guidance from your boss or even HR. But that would mean admitting your disengagement which isn’t likely to end well…

  • You think about quietly updating your resume and looking for another job, but when it comes to describing your skills and accomplishments you have never felt more uncertain. You used to be confident and it never felt this hard. 

  • You have wondered about burnout and researched the signs and solutions. 

  • You may have reached out to a therapist to address anxiety and low-grade depression. 

  • You’ve looked into early retirement, but either financially or mentally, you’re not ready for that yet. 

I’ve been there myself and I understand!

Yes, your career can feel easy again!

Get Back to Easy

2 to 4 months-long 1:1 coaching program for mid-career professionals to move from career crisis to career ease, helping you to:

✔get clear and creative with your career options

✔stop feeling fear about your future

✔end the exhaustion of anxiety and worry

✔improve your productivity and resourcefulness

✔replace hopelessness with hope

✔enjoy your weekends again

This isn't about finding the one right answer.

It starts with getting honest, really honest, with someone who isn't just listening but knows this territory well enough to help you see what you can't see from inside it, about what you want and what it's been quietly costing you to ignore.

Then it gets specific: not fantasy options, real ones, inside your current role, outside it, or somewhere you haven't considered yet.

And then it gets tactical:

  • a resume that sounds like you, not a template.

  • a LinkedIn profile that keeps working while you're in back-to-back meetings.

  • the negotiating instincts to ask for what you're actually worth,

  • and the networking instincts to find the opportunities that never get posted.

What’s included in the Smooth Sailing Package:

  • Customized goal plan development, designed to meet your unique objectives

  • Eight virtually facilitated (Zoom or phone) 60-minute 1:1 coaching sessions held on a weekly or semi-weekly basis, with flexible scheduling

  • Ongoing support between sessions: including session notes, additional learning resources, direct phone/text/email connection

  • Support to address the job search process including development of a networking plan, LinkedIn profile and search, resume and cover letter, customized application, interview prep, offer negotiation

  • Bonus ninth session, 45 to 90 days after your last, to see what's actually sticking and troubleshoot anything that isn't
