After working part-time in the non-profit world and taking some time to prioritize my family and…read morevolunteering in the community, I was ready to transition back into a full-time career and wanted guidance to navigate the process. My first meeting with Coach Colleen Campbell felt like meeting with a long time friend, she is warm and encouraging. At first I thought I only required resume review assistance and interview coaching, but over the approx. 8 months that I met with Coach Colleen Campbell, she provided much more. We collaborated together to articulate my work-related values, strengths and overall career criteria. As we identified potential industries and roles that would be a fit, she provided valuable targeting and interviewing strategies to help stand out. I am now in a rewarding analytics role and feel confident in my new professional identity. Thank you Coach Campbell!

I remember starting and feeling so confused and uncertain. And now I feel more certain than ever about what I am supposed to be doing.

Happy Sunday... Reflecting on this post, I found myself looking back to the beginning of my journey…read morein discovering my work, calling, and purpose. In 2020, when I left social work behind, l didn't immediately search for the next job. Instead, I sought resources to help me find myself and uncover my true purpose in life. That's when my good friends, Nat & Dan, recommended A Path That Fits-a career und life coaching program that truly made a difference in my journey. From that moment, l knew I was heading in the right direction. I am not here because I needed a JOB... I am here because @connectmortgagegroup and I - ARE MEANT TO BE HERE!!! This passion has started since 2004 when I started as a part time College Student and part time Loan Processor. If you're feeling lost, stagnant, or even complacent, turn to prayer-and if you're looking for additional guidance, I highly recommend A Path That Fits to help you discover your true purpose and calling, one that brings you 1000% happiness! I'm so grateful I found Adrian Klaphaak - Purpose Coach before getting married and having kids-it gave me the chance to truly find ME - MYSELF.

I cannot say enough good things about Gretchen. I started working with her when I moved from…read moreCalifornia to a new state where I had no professional network. First, Gretchen helped me define what I was looking for in a new job and research organizations aligned with my goals. Next, she took the pain out of writing a resume and cover letter by helping me highlight and take credit for the important stuff and rolling accomplishments up into big measurable wins. Finally, she's an ace at interview prep. She can quickly assess what themes to focus on and which to leave out and how to answer those annoying 'tell me about yourself' questions. An hour spent with Gretchen will save you 5 hours of muddling through, iterating, and second-guessing yourself - a spectacular return on investment for a busy mom like me. I just nailed my first C-suite level interview and am on to the final round. Thanks Gretchen!

Gretchen Hellman is one heck of a coach. If you're looking for someone who will give it to you…read morestraight, and not waste your precious time - Gretchen is the way to go. I highly recommend her for the initial stages of career transition and new job hunt. I was looking to transition out of nonprofit + education into the tech industry and she single-handedly transformed my resume to be more appealing to tech companies. Before meeting with her, I was only getting those automatic - robotic responses from companies indicating that they were not interested in moving forward with me. Once I began using the resume that Gretchen supported me with, I was getting ~50% response rate and landed A LOT of interviews! After 2.5 months of getting her 1:1 support, I got offered a position at a tech startup in Palo Alto within my desired salary band (60% increase of past salary). Strengths: - resume support - tech industry knowledge - confidence builder - organization (google drive with all of our notes and next steps) - networking - LinkedIn optimization Areas of Growth - response rate + email communication - interview prep (using time to go through the story arc and providing real time + realistic feedback - her feedback overwhelmed me more so helped me) I truly appreciate Gretchen. She is an amazing human + coach.

From beginning to end it was a pleasure working with Lucas. He really takes the time to understand…read moreyou as a person and asks great questions to put together the perfect plan for you. I had a career journey that was a bit different and Lucas gave me the confidence to put my best self out there. Lucas is a genius when it comes to resumes, LinkedIn updates, interview prep, and cover letters. The interview process was where I was the most nervous but with all the tips and tricks Lucas provided I was extremely confident during each interview as the prepping really paid off. While going through interviews Lucas was extremely supportive and flexible with his schedule to ensure I was ready for every round. I received an offer and I could honestly say I could have not done it without Lucas's support and guidance. Thank you Lucas!

I toyed with the idea of making a drastic career change but was paralyzed with indecision for a while. I figured I should probably find a professional career coach to help me get some clarity, and that is when I met Lucas. Lucas took the time to really try and understand my career situation, so that we could formulate a plan that was unique to me. We started with career aptitude tests which helped me learn more about myself. We defined and prioritized my career goals, and explored the many paths I could take to reach them. Also, Lucas is a resume magician, transforming my plain, wordy resume into a much more impressive, concise one. He also helped me with my LinkedIn profile which I appreciate since I am a total LinkedIn newbie. He basically did almost everything he could to set me up for success. I highly recommend Lucas whether you are starting out in your career or changing your current career path. He can provide the support, insight, and accountability to help you achieve your goals.

Earlier this year, I found myself at a crossroads in my career. I had worked hard to become a…read moreProduct Manager and, while I found success, I also faced some real challenges. Being a new father, balancing work and life as a PM was tough--and on top of that, I wanted to master my current role so I could confidently move into the next phase of my career. I reached out to my mentor and dear friend Vikas, who suggested I connect with Merideth. I'm so glad I took his advice. What I appreciated most about working with Merideth was that she didn't just side with me on every gripe or frustration I had. Instead, she offered a fresh perspective that challenged me to see things from a more balanced viewpoint. She then helped me develop skills to address these challenges constructively, empowering me to manage difficult situations with more confidence and clarity. Merideth also helped me carve out the time and space for self-reflection and discovery, allowing me to dive deeper into understanding my strengths and what truly brings me joy. This led me to realize that much of my focus had been on trying to conform to what I thought others wanted, rather than leaning into my strengths and passions. Merideth helped me build a framework to approach career decisions with confidence--both in my day-to-day work and during my recent job search. This enabled me to be selective about the opportunities I pursued and comfortable walking away from those that weren't the right fit. If you're looking for a coach who can help you grow in your career, I can't recommend Merideth enough. Feel free to reach out if you'd like to hear more about my experience, or contact her directly. You won't regret it.

I practiced law for many years and stepped away after my second child was born to spend time as a…read morefull-time caregiver. When I started to think about how and when I would re-enter the workforce, I hit a mental block. I didn't know if I wanted to go back to lawyering or to pivot to something new. I also wasn't sure how I would focus my career exploration, in light of the time constraints of being home all day with two small kids. I engaged Merideth for a 3 month coaching program to help me navigate these challenges, and I am so thankful for my experience with her. Merideth helped me gain clarity about what I want my life to look like once both my children are in grade school, and how I want my work to fit into that vision. Through working with Merideth, I was able to assemble a list of career "non-negotiables" with respect to the skills I want to use, the values I want my work to reflect, and the way I'd like to structure my work schedule. Moreover, Merideth and I fleshed out concrete ways of exploring my interests in small, focused steps, and compiled a list of concrete career ideations about which I am truly excited. In addition to helping focus my career planning, Merideth helped me work on my mindset. Even though I am an accomplished person who has met "long shot" goals in the past, it is a major challenge for me to imagine I can curate a career I am passionate about, and in which I have control over my time and energy expenditures. Merideth helped me with this mindset shift (and I continue to work on it). Merideth also taught me about the "negative tapes" we all play in our minds, and how it is possible to re-record them. Doing this work required more vulnerability and self-reflection than I initially anticipated, but it has empowered me to indulge interests I'd long dismissed as "impractical," and to see new possibilities for myself. Merideth is warm, friendly, caring, and a great listener. She is also an excellent accountability partner. The process of completing her Career Compass exercises was so thorough, I have peace of mind that I have left no stone unturned in examining my values, skills, and preferences. I am also so grateful to her for continually reminding me of what is possible, and that I am capable of having a satisfying career that is compatible with the personal demands of this season of my life. Thank you, Merideth!

To me, writing my own résumé was like cutting my own hair. You might think 'who knows your head…read morebetter than you?' but personally I find it comes out better if someone else with experience does it. Working with Madelyn and Nikki I encountered first-class people, top-drawer service, and a great outcome. My résumé got such a great makeover, I hardly recognized that it was me that it represented, it seemed like someone much more impressive. I was amazed that while the content was basically the same, the layout, and language was so much more eye-catching and compelling. Since I started using the revamped version, I've actually been getting more contacts, phone screens, and interviews. Coincidence? TBH I don't know but I'm glad I took the step to get help from Madelyn and Nikki. As others have said, there are lots of people offering to re-do your résumé and it's hard to know who to trust. I'm glad I went with these guys, however. They really get it, their creativity, professionalism, and enthusiasm are hard to top.

One day, I reached out and was connected with Tess Zeito. Our first call was serendipitous - I knew at the end of the 30 minutes that we were meant to work together and meet. I started with the 8 weeks plan with the option to extend. I am finishing up my 8 weeks and I put in the work and stayed committed to working with Tess every week. I feel transformed, empowered and have so much clarity. I trusted the process and now am going to extend my time with Tess as there is more ground to cover, especially around professional development. I am so glad Tess is my life coach.
