Who do you work with?
I work with high-achieving professionals in middle to upper management, typically Manager through VP level. The heaviest concentrations are in Marketing, Analytics, Audit and Operations, though the work applies across functions because the obstacles at this level are consistent regardless of what the team does. The problems that parents and high performers face at work are universal.
What industries do you work in?
Primarily tech, financial services, consulting and healthcare. I have worked with clients inside Fortune 100 companies, startups and everything in between, and the career mechanics that matter at Manager to VP level travel well between them.
Where are your clients located?
About 60% of my clients are in North America and most of the rest are in Europe and the UK. The highest concentrations are the US, Canada, the UK, Germany, Switzerland and France. I have worked with clients in 27 countries.
Do you work with people who are job searching, or people staying and getting promoted?
Both. Asking for and securing promotions and raises is core to the 1:1 coaching. If a move out is the right answer, resumes, interviews and your first 30, 60 and 90 days are covered through the How to Get a New Job module in the community.
Do you work with companies and teams, or individuals only?
Both. Alongside 1:1 coaching I deliver corporate training and keynotes, including the signature programme From Potential to Power, available virtually or in person and customizable for teams or leadership cohorts. Keynote topics cover executive presence, networking and personal brand, and emotional health at work.
Do you work with people below Manager or above VP?
Only on an exception basis. If you are on the cusp of management and have been stuck, needing extra support to break through, the community is an excellent resource for that transition. Above VP level I can partner with you to evaluate acquisitions, run workshops that help your leadership team work more cohesively, and build change management plans.
What do you focus on in coaching?
Everything comes back to three pillars. Play the Game covers the unwritten rules of corporate life, visibility, self-advocacy and politics. Become Her builds the confidence and identity to lead without guilt. Build the Life protects your time, health and relationships while you do it. Every engagement starts with personal branding and career strategy, then customizes from there across networking, building advocates, communication, executive presence, emotional regulation and boundaries.
How long is a typical engagement?
Three months. The Career Breakthrough Program is a 90-day private coaching experience and that is the standard container for 1:1 work. Maintenance programmes are available after your initial three months, and roughly 60% of clients move into one.
How often are sessions, and how long is each one?
Sessions are 1:1 with me on a bi-weekly cadence across the three months. Your first session is 55 minutes, a full deep dive into where you are, what you want and what has been getting in the way. Every session after that is 25 focused minutes on whatever you are navigating right now.
What support is there between sessions?
24/7 Slack support. You also get the Career Strategy Blueprint, a 37-video course covering how to navigate your career, plus personalised branding work, customized programming, and access to the community with 15 or more templates and guides.
How do sessions happen, and do you work across time zones?
Sessions are booked around your availability and then recur on a bi-weekly cadence, Monday to Friday. I keep special availability windows for clients in the UAE, Asia, Australia and New Zealand, and I am regularly available in the afternoon and evening for clients in Europe and the UK. North American clients are covered by standard US hours.
How is this different from resume writing or career counselling?
Other career programmes teach resumes and interviews. This one teaches influence, communication and visibility, the things that actually determine who gets promoted. A resume gets you considered for a job you do not have yet. This work changes how you are perceived in the job you already hold, which is where the next title is decided.
Do you help with interview preparation and salary negotiation?
Yes to both, in different places. Asking for and securing promotions and raises is core to the 1:1 coaching. Interview preparation, resumes and your first 30, 60 and 90 days are covered inside the community through the How to Get a New Job module.
What if I do not know what I want next?
No one knows what they want to be when they grow up. A large part of the coaching is identifying your unique skills, strengths and values, so you can rule out the career paths that do not fit and build a forward-looking strategy aligned with your purpose. Clarity is not a prerequisite for coaching. An open mind and a willingness to build new tools is.
What results do your clients get?
70% of my clients have been promoted or landed an ideal placement within six months of working with me, across 341 clients over the last three years. That means moving to a more senior role at the same company, or finding a role that aligns with their career strategy, internally or externally. The average salary increase is $25,000 across all clients, including those who were not promoted. Many clients receive high performance bonuses even when they are not actively trying to progress.
How many people have you coached?
341 private 1:1 clients in the last three years, and roughly 700 across the life of the business. Alongside that I have delivered speaking and workshops to more than 1,600 people through IAC and VIA, plus around 25 smaller team conferences and workshops.
Do you guarantee a promotion or a new role?
No. I do not guarantee a promotion or a new role. What I do guarantee is that you will learn how corporate actually works and how to navigate it, and those are skills that make you successful long after the programme ends.
What does it cost?
There are two ways to work with me. Private coaching is $900 a month across the three-month programme, which includes bi-weekly 1:1 sessions, 24/7 Slack support, the Career Strategy Blueprint and community access. The Office Insider membership is $27 a month and includes the mini courses, templates, scripts, weekly challenges and Q and A support from the team.
What is the minimum commitment, and can I cancel?
Private coaching runs as a committed three-month programme. Once you start, you are in for the full ninety days, which is what makes the work possible. Maintenance options are available afterwards for clients who want to continue.
Do you offer refunds?
No. Committed programmes are not refundable under the coaching agreement.
Is anything shared with my employer?
No. Every client is covered by a confidentiality agreement. I will never disclose the names of my clients or their positions unless they have publicly shared that they worked with me first. You are welcome to tell your employer or your manager that you are working with a coach, but I should not have any direct contact with them.
What are your credentials and background?
I am a TEDx speaker, a published author and a career strategy and communication coach. I have coached 341 private clients in the last three years across 27 countries, inside Fortune 100 companies, startups and everything in between. I host Secrets of the Career Game, a podcast with over 100 episodes, and wrote the book of the same name. Before coaching I earned five promotions in six years and a CFO offer before turning 30, after a manager told me people did not like working with me.
What happens on the first call?
It is a 15-minute intro call over video with my team. We talk through your goals, where you are in your career and what you are trying to accomplish, then work out whether the programme is the right fit and which option suits you best. There is nothing to prepare.
