Career transition coaching for accomplished professionals.
This Chapter is Over. What's Next?
You've built a successful career or business. Respected in your field. You've been the one with all the answers for years.
So why does the next chapter look like a total blur?
I know exactly why. I've been there.
You've reached the summit of professional success. But you're not enjoying the view.
You lived for your work. It gave you security and identity. It also cost you almost everything else.
The trade-off used to make sense. Lately, it doesn't.
What started as a suspicion has grown into a pit in your stomach. It feels inevitable. You can't keep doing this, but walking away is terrifying.
Maybe you sold the business. Maybe you burned out. Maybe the decision was made for you.
Either way, the future — and how to get there — is unclear.
In the quiet of the night, the same questions surface:
-
Who am I without this role?
-
Where do I go from here?
-
What's next?
It might feel like you're at a career crossroads.
You're actually at an identity crossroads.
Whatever ended the last chapter has reordered your priorities. It's changed you. Or maybe it's brought you back.
"Who am I now?" is the question to ask first.
Skip it, and you'll recreate the same intensity somewhere else.
Answer it, and you'll have a clear picture of what you want, the confidence to do what's right for you, and the conviction to bet on yourself.
That's where the Wayfinding Program begins.
The Wayfinding Program
The first step towards the change you want to make.
-
Focus on now, not on dissecting the past.
-
Identify what's strong instead of what's wrong.
-
Shift away from regret and toward belief.
-
Discover who you are today and what you need tomorrow.
Find clarity and courage in eight weeks.
Eight sessions, weekly, blending curated exercises with private coaching.
(Need a slower pace? We can stretch it to biweekly. )
Phase 1: Build Your Power Profile (Sessions 1–4) Capture what matters most in your career and life, and what you will and won't accept going forward. You'll leave with your Power Profile — a one-page picture of your strengths, your priorities, and the value you bring anywhere. It's a mirror of the self you've lost sight of.
Phase 2: Explore Your Options (Sessions 5–8) Put your Power Profile to work. Separate realistic possibilities from pipe dreams, test more than one direction — a new role, a new venture, or a better way of working on the path you're already on — and get mentally, emotionally, and practically ready to make the change.
Investment: $3,500 + applicable taxes.
Most clients start here. But if your situation calls for something more tailored, I'm happy to talk through what that could look like.
Meet Lauren
I spent a decade in executive search, where I got very good at answering other people's strategic and tactical career questions. By all accounts, I was successful. I just didn't feel that way. I was exhausted and stressed. I was afraid of staying in the same role for the next 30 years — and, paradoxically, afraid of doing something else.
When my father died, just shy of 60. It planted questions that changed everything:
Was I living life fully? Was I living for what mattered most?
It took seven months, two coaches, and a deep dive into positive psychology, but the breakthrough came when I realized that who I am and what I do had tangled into a knot I couldn't untie alone.
I didn't need to start over. I needed to understand who I'd become.
In 18 years across executive search and coaching, I've worked with 350+ professionals at career crossroads — 150+ of them as coaching clients through the Wayfinding Program, helping them discover who they've become and what to do next.
If any of this sounds familiar, let's talk.
