Have you decided it is finally time to go after your dream job? Or maybe you're ready to admit that 6-figures and a 60 hour work week isn't working anymore. Career Makeover Strategies is a 60 minute show offering practical tips for and real success stories of people who have dared to pursue their passion.

My personal career makeover...

My professional history is a prime example of what it looks like to make over a career. My resume includes titles like classroom teacher, administrative assistant, employment coordinator, and principal e-learning designer over a 15-year span. I’ve worked in New York’s financial district, for a Fortune 500 company, and a global top ten software development company.

As I look back over the last 4 years, it has been an amazing ride – especially as a single mother. During the last four years of my corporate life I more than doubled my starting salary by reinventing myself to get into the industry and job that I knew would be a great fit for my skills and interest. I also made sure that I chose companies and bosses that would allow me to advance.

Here’s a habit you want to develop:  if you don’t know find out. Simple right? But how often are you aware that there’s something that you don’t know, and instead of following up, you just let it go. There is that other place of not knowing what you don’t know. And that’s when it’s time to call in the reinforcements – mentors, colleagues, family members, peers who have gotten to a place where you aspire to be. But what if you don’t have that? Not to say that your family and friends aren’t loving and have well wishes for you, they just simply may not have the resources and insight to get you to the next level. This is where coaching comes in.

The success I experienced with my coach, inspired me to launch my own coaching practice. The career coaching services I offer are based on my own experience of successfully climbing the corporate ladder and the training I received from the International Coaching Academy.

One of my core values is that in order for work to be fulfilling – it has to be about more than a paycheck. I am passionate about helping women discover, pursue and excel in their professional passion. Bottom line – I love to see people succeed. And what could be better than the privilege of helping them do it!
