You know something
needs to change.
Let’s work out what.

You don’t have to know whether you need a new job, a new career, consulting, or a different way of living. We start with what’s happening now and what your next chapter needs to support.

Let’s figure out your next move

Career strategy that accounts for real life.

A strategy built around you.

01 / Find your direction

Career Direction

“I know something needs to change. I don’t know what to pursue.”

Make sense of your experience, compare realistic options, and choose a direction that accounts for your life.

You leave with a clear recommendation on which career direction to pursue, the research and reasoning behind it, and a written plan for your next steps.

Career Direction

Choose what
to pursue next.

For when you need to make a decision before investing in a new resume, a job search, or a consulting offer.

We examine your experience, priorities, and constraints. Targeted research helps us compare realistic directions against the work you want to do and the life it needs to support.

What you leave with

A clear recommendation on which career direction to pursue, the research and reasoning behind it, and a written plan for your next steps.

The proposal confirms the scope, timeline, and fee before we begin.

For when you want help turning the decision into a clear story, useful materials, and a plan you can put into action.

We move from your career story and market research into positioning and preparation for your chosen direction.

What we work on

  • Your career story, priorities, and market options
  • A focused direction and positioning for employers or clients
  • Materials agreed in your proposal, such as a resume and LinkedIn profile, or a consulting offer and client-facing materials
  • An implementation plan for applications, outreach, or testing your offer

Your proposal defines the deliverables, revisions, and fee. We finish with clear next steps. Additional support is agreed separately.

Talk about the partnership
If relocation is part of the plan

Either option can include moving abroad.

We consider how your intended location affects the career options we research and the preparation you need.

A few things you might be wondering.

How do I know whether I need a new job, a new career, or a different way of living?

We compare what is no longer working, what you want your life to support, and which realistic options fit your experience, income needs, and constraints. Career Direction is designed to turn that uncertainty into a researched recommendation and written next-step plan.

What if I’m still employed?

You can start while you’re working. We account for your income needs, available time, and responsibilities.

Do I have to want consulting or a move abroad?

No. A different employed role or a change in career direction may be the right focus. We compare what fits your situation.

Which option should I choose?

If your main question is what to pursue, Career Direction is the starting point. If you also want help preparing your positioning and materials, we can discuss the partnership.

How much does it cost?

We discuss the support you need on the consultation. You receive a proposal with the scope and fee before deciding whether to proceed.
