Career Transitions Coaching

You’ve built a life that looks successful on paper.

So why do you feel so unfulfilled?

You’ve come so far in your career. Followed all the rules. Paid your dues. Climbed the ladder.

But still, you feel like something’s missing. Each day feels like going through the motions. Work no longer energizes you – in fact, it’s downright draining.

Maybe you already know what you want to do next, but the pragmatic voices in your head are listing all the reasons it won’t work. Or maybe you’re feeling uncertain about your direction, knowing it’s time for a change but uncertain about what that next step looks like.

Either way, you’re feeling stuck. Part of you says it’s simpler, and less risky, to stay with the status quo than to venture into the unknown. After all, you’ve worked so hard to build your reputation.

But another part of you longs to feel alive again.

It’s time to get out of analysis paralysis

If you’re like most people I work with, you’re highly intelligent, articulate, and have probably already spent quite a lot of time analyzing your situation. You may even already be scrolling LinkedIn endlessly, applying to jobs that don’t truly excite you, just to feel like you’re doing something.

You’re looking for help with defining a vision for your next career step and a plan for how to get there. And while we often work together on those topics, I believe this isn’t what’s ultimately holding you back from making a change.

Intellectual analysis and action plans, while comfortable, rarely creates transformation.

We dive deeper.

The inner journey of change

My approach isn’t about updating your LinkedIn profile or practicing your interviewing techniques. It’s about untangling yourself from what’s really holding you back, so you can move forward with confidence.

Over my years of working with clients, I’ve found that the path to changing careers has four main steps:

Create Space 

Creating meaningful career change requires mental and emotional space first—without it, reflection and clarity become nearly impossible amidst the demands of work and life.

Dream Big

Once you have space, we follow your curiosity and energy to envision multiple futures that ignite a sense of aliveness, without limiting ourselves with practical constraints.

Address Barriers

We work through barriers that emerge—from limiting beliefs to practical considerations—that keep you from moving forward with your dream.

Get Practical

We develop a practical, targeted strategy focused on actionable steps that bring you closer to your vision.

“People only change when the dream is big enough and the pain is real enough. We look at both.”

The transformation you’ll experience

Outcomes vary widely with my clients, depending on their starting point. Some transform their current roles, others move internally or leave entirely. Success means getting clear on what the right next step is for you – and taking it.

Working with me, you’ll find:

Clarity

Knowing what truly matters to you, including what’s non-negotiable for your next step.

Grounding

Finding your feet again, feeling more comfortable in the uncertainty of the transition.

Mental peace

A more clear mind, less second-guessing, rumination, and self-doubt.

Direction

A clear, compelling vision that guides you, plus actionable steps to move forward.

Courage

The confidence to take those steps, including sharing your hopes with others.

Alignment

A life and career that honors who you are, not just what you can do.

Here’s what clients are saying…

“After over a decade of a successful corporate career, I started working with Kate when I realized that my professional life was becoming out of sync with my values. Under Kate’s coaching guidance, I was able to reconnect to my deeper purpose in life and use it as a north star for major personal and professional decisions. As a result I moved continents, started a family, and pivoted my career to empowering tech entrepreneurs in emerging markets. I would highly recommend Kate to others!”

Maciej, founder, ex-Google

“Despite knowing the role was not fulfilling me, I was denying myself the opportunity to freely imagine and explore alternatives.  Kate’s coaching is powerful – in just a few sessions, she helped me to unpack my internal barriers to change.  I not only gained greater awareness of my unconscious beliefs, but most importantly, learned to enjoy the journey of exploration and have fun along the way.  Thank you for all the support and encouragement!”

Peter, Head of Strategy, Tech firm

“Working with Kate was one of the best investments I’ve made in myself. I came into coaching feeling frustrated and stuck after changes at work, but through our sessions, I gained clarity, reprioritized my goals, and made meaningful shifts—like moving to a four-day workweek and letting go of the pressure to chase promotion right now. Kate challenged my thinking in the best possible way, helping me question unhelpful beliefs and recognize the real challenges I was facing with more compassion. I left the experience feeling more empowered, less angry, and with a clearer sense of agency in both my current role and longer-term career.”

Katie, MBB consulting firm

“When I started working with Kate, I had been in a demanding but unfulfilling career. Kate helped me understand that the stress and inertia I’ve been feeling are in part a result of assumptions I have been carrying with me as truths. This work has been difficult, but hugely illuminating. I came into coaching with a preconceived notion of what my next steps would be, and I’m pleased to say that I’m now exploring some things I hadn’t previously considered.”

Amy, former Director, EdTech company

Your investment in transformation

Real career change can take 2-3 years—longer than most clients initially expect. One woman I worked with said: ‘I realized this transformation is going to take years, not months!’ Our work together is a meaningful step on that journey, helping you break through what’s keeping you stuck and build some momentum.

Three-month coaching package

6 x 90 minute coaching calls (typically two per month)

Customized reflection exercises, based on where you are in your journey

Clients typically find more clarity about what matters most to them for the next chapter of their life and what’s keeping them stuck

Six-month coaching package

10 x 90 min coaching calls (typically 1-2 per month)

Customized reflection exercises, based on where you are in your journey

Clients typically experience the clarity that comes with a three-month coaching package, and go much deeper on the ‘inner journey’ of creating space, shifting underlying beliefs, and relaxing different parts of themselves that are keeping them stuck.
