Guiding purpose-driven careers

Feeling stuck doesn’t mean you’re behind.

Many young adults feel pressure to:

Choose the “right” career
Have a plan before they’re ready
Follow paths that don’t feel meaningful

The result? Confusion, anxiety, and self-doubt.

Why I Do This

For much of my own life, I was searching for clarity. I explored different careers, paying close attention to what energized me, what didn’t, where I felt capable, and where I felt disconnected. It took time—and many twists and turns—to understand how personality, strengths, and purpose truly come together in fulfilling work.

In 2013 I began working for an executive coaching company and was thrilled. After becoming certified as an Integral Coach, that fire had finally been lit inside of me. Through decades of leadership development, coaching, research, and conversations with experts, I eventually developed a clear framework for aligning who you are with work that feels meaningful. Looking back, I often wish I had someone to help me find that clarity earlier.

That’s why I do this work now—to be the guide I didn’t have, and to help young adults move forward with confidence rather than pressure.
