Ex-Google + Indeed recruiter · CPCC · Career strategy for senior, high-earning women

You built the career. Now it no longer feels like yours.

Maybe the role ended. Maybe the company changed. Maybe you changed. Maybe you woke up and realized the life you built around being capable is asking too much from you now.

“I did everything right, so why does this no longer feel like mine?” “The company changed, but somehow I am the one questioning myself.” “If I am not this title, this team, or this version of successful, who am I?”

I help senior, high-earning women figure out what comes next when the ladder stops making sense, without treating the income their household depends on as an afterthought: the story, the numbers, and the leverage to move on your terms.

I spent years reading résumés inside Google and Indeed. I know exactly how the machine reads you, and how to change what it sees.
Why this feels so difficult

The career question is rarely just a career question.

You may be trying to solve several things at once, while still working, caregiving, interviewing, recovering, or keeping the rest of your life moving. That is why generic advice keeps missing.

01

What actually happened?

Separate the facts from the story you have been carrying about yourself.

02

What no longer fits?

Name the work, environment, pace, identity, or version of success you cannot keep performing.

03

What has to be protected now?

Money, health, family, reputation, confidence, and the parts of your career you still want to carry forward.

Women who sat exactly where you are

Real clients, real turning points.

01

Name what is happening

›

Separate the disruption, the emotional aftermath, and the patterns shaping the decision. Most people skip this step and pay for it later.

02

Decide what matters now

›

Clarify the work, environment, priorities, risks, and constraints that need to guide your next move, before touching a résumé.

03

Build the practical path

›

Translate your value, create credible options, and move forward without abandoning your financial or family reality.

More women, more turning points

Erica did not write me a resume. She rewrote how I see the work I have been doing for 10 years. The offer came after that.

Jessica Guy, PMP · Senior Operations Program Manager
Why I do this

3 layoff emails have arrived in my house within 2.5 years.

Mine, November 2023. My husband’s, twice since. We did everything right and got the emails anyway. So I rebuilt. I turned everything I knew about how careers actually work into this practice, moved my family abroad, and landed my husband’s remote role myself. I do not coach from a textbook. I coach from my own kitchen table.

What I want for you is exactly what I want for my own family: that the next email that shows up is an event, not an emergency.
