Is this you?

You might be:

  • Feeling stuck in your career but so busy you have no time to think about how to make a change

  • Wondering is this really it for the next twenty years

  • Exploring a new path after running your own business

  • Unsure how to make sense of your experience in a way that’s compelling to recruiters

  • Feeling in limbo between what you used to do and what you want to do now

You’re wondering:

  • “How do I make sense of everything I’ve done?”

  • “How do I talk about my experience with confidence?”

  • “What kinds of roles should I even be looking at?”

  • “How do I find something that works for me now - not just what looks good on paper?”

If that sounds familiar, I wrote this course for you.

This is me
I have questions

You’re ready for change -

And you want a path forward that feels like progress, not pressure.

This 4-part small group workshop series is designed to help you:

✅ Understand what you want & need from your next role
✅ Build a strong career story and practical job search tools
✅ Take simple, focussed steps - even with limited time
✅ Leave with a realistic, motivating action plan to find your dream role

Designed with time-poor women in mind:


One hour every two weeks for the call, and one hour per week for your own action - all doable in the time you'd usually spend scrolling or watching Netflix.

Let's get started

What We’ll Cover

Session 1: Where Am I Now? Reclaiming Control
Reconnect with your story, strengths and what matters to you now. Reframe a fragmented career journey & regain authorship of your future career.

Session 2: What Are My Options? Values, Goals & Defining Direction
Explore career directions and uncover practical ideas for your next move. Identify your non-negotiables & explore not just what roles are out there, but what feels aligned with you - now, not five years ago.

Session 3: How Do I Position Myself? Career Positioning & Narrative
Refine your CV, LinkedIn, and professional narrative to reflect where you're going. Craft a strong, cohesive & compelling career story and vision for recruiters and your network. Get personalised feedback from me.

Session 4: What’s My Next Step? Taking Action & Building Momentum
Bring everything together into a realistic, motivating action plan. You'll identify the key priorities for your job search, build simple weekly habits, and take your next bold step — whether that’s sending a pitch, booking a networking call, or applying for a role that fits who you are now.

FAQ’s

  • This is for women who are at a career crossroads - whether you’re returning after a break, leaving a business or industry, or just unsure what you want next. You do not need to have a polished CV or any kind of career plan - just a willingness to explore and take action.

  • The live calls will be held on the following dates:

    Tuesday 9th September 12:00-13:00

    Tuesday 23rd September 12:00-13:00

    Tuesday 7th October 12:00-13:00

    Thursday 16th October 12:00-13:00

    Please note the final date is a THURSDAY.

  • No panic! Ideally you’d attend all four sessions live, as this is best for you to get the most out of the programme. But I know life is busy, so I’ll be recording all four sessions and making these available after the call.

  • Nothing upfront. Once you sign up, you’ll receive a short questionnaire to complete before we begin. This will help me to tailor the experience to you.

  • After Session 3, you’ll be invited to submit your CV, LinkedIn profile, and personal narrative draft. You’ll receive personalised feedback from me to help strengthen your positioning on all three items and boost your confidence. You will also be able to join the WhatsApp group for support between calls.

  • Yes - each live session includes space for discussion and Q&A, and you’ll also receive tailored feedback on your materials after Session 3. Plus, I’ll be in the WhatsApp group with you for anything between sessions.

  • That’s part of the process. This course is built to help you explore and refine your direction - it’s completely normal to shift focus as you uncover what fits.

  • Perfect. This course is designed for exactly that - helping you take practical action and create a direction that works for you.

  • Yes.

    For obvious reasons, I can’t promise you will get a job. It’s not a job board or CV template class. But it will help you move forward with a stronger personal story, better tools, improved confidence and a clearer map of where you’re heading.

    All vital ingredients in your career and job search.

  • I coach many women on a 1:1 basis to help them go deeper and enable personal career and leadership transformation. You’ll have the option to explore that at the end of the programme.

    I’m also launching FOUNDHER - a collective for women in leadership for co-coaching, support, growth and community.

  • The programme is designed to be low time commitment and high impact. Expect one 60-minute live session every two weeks, and around one hour of self-paced action each week. The time you’d spend on the sofa watching Netflix!

  • Yes - this isn’t only for job seekers. If you’re exploring freelance, consulting or pivoting into self-employment, this programme will help you take clear steps in that direction.

  • Yes, if you're considering what's next, this course is absolutely for you. Whether you want to pivot, reposition your services, or explore returning to employment, the sessions will help you reflect on what you truly want, strengthen your professional story, and take practical steps toward your next chapter - in whatever form that takes.

  • Yes - all recordings and the workbook will be available for you to revisit for 3 months after the programme ends.

ok I'm ready!
