Workshops

If you're looking for an engaging speaker for your students, employees or event participants, I'm happy to organize an in-person workshop or online webinar about various career topics!

I share insights and strategies I've learned by being a job-seeker, working as a recruiter and guiding hundreds of professionals in my private practice as a career coach. These strategies bring clear results and work in today's complicated job market.

My workshops are inspiring and action-packed without generic advice we've all heard a thousand times. As you can see in the feedback below, participants of my workshops have appreciated the fresh outlook I give on all things career.

I make sure that participants leave with something tangible they created with my guidance during the workshop: a personalized career plan, job-seeking strategy, or networking action plan.

I have ready-made workshops that I can host instantly, but I can also prepare a workshop tailored to the needs of your audience.

It can be a scary moment to realize you're not all that happy with your job. Especially when you've put significant effort into reaching your current position or if it was once your dream role.  However, experiencing this feeling doesn't always mean you must take a radical step, such as quitting. More often than not, […]

You’ve ticked off a few promotions and have an idea of what you enjoy and what’s important for you. But you might also have more responsibilities (house […]

About me

Like most millennials, I went through a deep identity crisis in my mid-twenties. I was so lost about what I wanted to do and felt overwhelmed by all the different choices and what I perceived getting an exciting job would take.

I’ve always been very curious about different people, their paths, and their goals, especially their careers. I love chatting about different jobs and helping people find happiness at work because it affects all other aspects of our lives. That brought me to coaching; I wanted to help people figure out their careers and find the right match for them.

Becoming a mum in 2024 opened a new level of how important having a meaningful job is. As parents, every single hour we spend at work is time away from our children, and it’s so important to make these hours count and make work a perfect complement to the life we want to live.

I’m very open about my own career struggles that have shaped the coach I am today. If you want to get to know me and my story, check out my three-part podcast series on Youtube.

Qualifications

I have a master’s degree in Business Strategy and several years of work experience with startups. My longest work experience was in recruitment, which has shaped my career coaching. I know the ins and outs of the job market and what top companies are looking for when hiring. I give proven advice that works in today’s complicated job market.

I’ve also completed a coaching certification course, a voluntary qualification for coaches focused on gaining and practicing coaching skills. After completing this course, I coached for free for several years to master the art of coaching and build a solid portfolio of success stories before establishing my coaching business.

To this day, I’ve coached, taught or worked with over a thousand people, mainly with business or tech backgrounds.
