You’ve come to the right place! Meet your Alignment Activator Coach

I remember it like it was yesterday. The aroma of freshly brewed coffee filled the air as I went about my morning routine. But then, a voice behind me shattered the peaceful silence.

“Mommy, can I quit?”

I turned around, startled, to find my daughter standing there, her eyes brimming with tears. A knot tightened in my stomach as I noticed she looked like life had been drained from her.

This was the same young woman I had coached to prepare for a job interview just four months ago. The same one who had landed a job she was so excited about.

“What do you mean?”

I asked, my voice barely above a whisper. She explained that her job was sucking the life out of her. She had been experiencing crying spells between calls, and as soon as she finished work, all she could muster the energy for was a shower and sleep.

“It’s like I’m slowly dying inside,” she confessed.

Those words pierced my heart like a dagger. They echoed experiences I had buried deep within myself from over a decade ago. At that moment, I saw myself in her. I remembered the years I spent feeling trapped in misaligned careers, sacrificing my well-being for a paycheck.

I knew I couldn’t let her go down the same path.

With my expertise in career coaching, training, and organizational psychology, along with years of experience working in a corporate environment, I knew I had the tools to help her.

I guided her through the steps she could take to improve her situation. We did reflection exercises, mapped out her ideal role, rewrote her resume and cover letter, and role-played in preparation for interviews.

While working through this, I came to realize that it was more than just a “bad job” situation. What she experienced was the result of career misalignment — a disconnect between who she is at the core and the work she was doing. She is now in a role that brings her joy and satisfaction (working with pups!).

It has been a night and day transformation! Her smile returned, her energy was renewed, and she was back to her old self, but better!

After this experience, I began wondering if perhaps the problem of career misalignment ran deeper than just this situation.

Was it too far-fetched to say that career misalignment is silently stealing the joy, motivation, and potential of countless people worldwide?

After all, burnout is a global epidemic, affecting countless individuals who sacrifice their well-being for the sake of a steady paycheck every day.

So, I did some research. And what I have found so far has left me unsettled. Misalignment is a major contributing factor to burnout, but it doesn’t have to be your destiny, and with my help, it won’t have to be.

You deserve to do work that energizes you and reflects the best version of you. The work you were meant to do is waiting for you! Let’s go find it!
