Learn how we helped Holly to be proactive, structured, and deliberate in understanding her transferrable skills, confidently deciding on which career direction felt most compatible, and successfully pivoting into that path.
We hear people often say, "where do I start?" or "I fell into this career path instead of choosing a path intentionally" or "money isn't enough anymore, I need to find fulfillment at work" and much more.
We are here to help you expedite your years of frustration, time-block your uncertainty, and take control of clarifying your best fit path before jumping into any job search.

"Getting started is the hardest part, but I felt like having someone to check in with every week or two weeks was what motivated me to actually do these things. I'm super comfortable with my career coach."
"I have clarity on my path! The primary benefit was putting structure to the networking process. This would be beneficial for people who are looking for a structured approach to the job discovery and search process."
"Guiding through the networking process. Networking is typically an uncomfortable experience for me, but the platform gave me the guidance and structure to make it more manageable."
"You've helped me so much this past year and I've found the courage to thrive in a world that can be quite intimidating. I had my 90-day performance review meeting this week and it went EXTREMELY well. It gave me the comfort and motivation to keep working towards my best self, while knowing that I have a great team at my side to help. I wish I had the words to describe just how AWESOME you are!"
"The best part about the WOKEN process was the guidance/support. I didn't have to think about what was next."
"I had genuinely no idea what I was meant to do with my life, I kept jumping from major to major in college before dropping out completely and flailing even more trying to find a career. I know that I want to go back to college, and I know what I want to study! I’m much more certain in the direction I’m going in! It gave me a set of steps to take that really made me look within myself, to take the pieces of my personality and combine them to match it with the right career. This process is best for anyone who may be even slightly unsure about their path, or even someone who wants a new career path! This process is for absolutely anyone who wants to improve their professional life! I am eternally grateful to you and to this process for giving me what I never thought I would achieve, and this isn’t even the end of it! I know that once we continue beyond the career exploration phase, I’ll find the perfect role for me and I can’t wait!"
"confidence to ride the networking wave after having discovered the best career direction for me."
"I was working in a stereotypical dead-end job, with not only no career path, but no idea what my ideal job or career should be. I'm now about to start a new job and career that I feel confident about, both short and long-term. The greatest benefit, to me, was one-on-one meetings with my coach. The assessment stage was also greatly beneficial to my process in that it allowed me to better realize what I should be looking for in a career, both in terms of industries and type of role. The folks who would benefit from WOKEN includes anyone who is looking for direction in their professional life, or even simply looking to pivot. The advice, insight, and self-discovery is invaluable to anyone in any stage of their career. "
"I've made changes at my current job, and am working to make a move to a new industry when the time is right. I feel reinvigorated, and I really don't think I could have gotten to where I am now without the support and guidance that I got from working with my career coach. While I will say, the work has to come from the individual. No one will do any of these things for you. Working with my career coach gave me the confidence to reach out and talk to strangers. It facilitated my journey of finding what I need to be doing with my career, and I couldn't be more grateful."
"The questionnaire is really helpful to get me started thinking about what kind of interests I have and where my skills are. It was helpful to research industries and to give me a program to get started and figure out how to transition to different jobs and verify what I actually want to do for certain jobs. The surveys in the beginning were really helpful. I like the call prep - the one that give a quick overview. I also like the cover letter and resume review."
