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.

"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!"
"Thank you for the communication. I appreciate you checking in. Helps me stay accountable. I started researching one role. I actually like that the platform gives more structure and guidance in researching roles. I would've been all over the place on my own."
"I feel much more confident and am in a significantly better place after using the WOKEN platform. I appreciated that my coach went above and beyond the scope of coaching to help when I shared challenges with motivation. There is no question that my coach wants me to succeed and is continuously focused on asking the right questions, gathering the right information, and being strategic every step of the way. It was a pleasure to work with my career coach and I look forward to staying in touch."
"I was hoping for guidance on how to make the correct decision about my next career move. I was unhappy in my current position feeling unchallenged and unmotivated; I knew a change needed to be initiated. Prior to the discussion, I was not sure what direction I wanted to take. Through conversation, we were able to clarify my career goals and aspirations. One thing I learned through this process was: if you want a certain industry, why remain complacent? Go for it now. So, that is just what I did. With the motivation from our conversation, I applied to two opportunities that fell in the realm of what space I wanted to be in. As the following two weeks went by, I had multiple interviews for both positions. Two weeks later, I had offers from both positions. I was ecstatic. Per the guidance I received, I was able to leverage those offers against each other to maximize my salary, position and benefits. I am grateful I took the chance to do this because it allowed me to express my desires for career growth that I hadn't even fully shared with myself. Now I can say I am very excited to be moving into a new role which puts me on my path to success."
"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."
"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!"
"Thank you for all of your help and I am grateful I found you. You have helped me a lot. I am definitely feeling more organized and optimistic about my job search."
"The platform kept me very accountable to my mission and helped me flush out exactly what I was looking for in my next professional adventure which in turn, made me highly effective in communicating what I was looking for in job interviews leading to more successful outcomes aka my new job :)"
"Nailed the interview! Wow that was fun!"
"As a career changer, I was very lost, confused, frustrated and desperate to find the right professional path for myself before starting WOKEN. I had moments where I wasn't sure I would find what I was looking for, but I did and I'm ecstatic. My confidence and motivation have grown exponentially. I'm so happy to have finally found purpose and direction! The platform provided a road map, many points of reflection and questions that I had not considered in the past. Unlocking the next stages after completing each section helped keep me on track and bring me back to focus on my goals. Here's who I think would benefit from WOKEN: He/she/they who are ready to take on the challenge of finding professional direction and experience that holds their interest and keeps them motivated and excited. Also, for the individual who is tired of mindlessly applying to jobs without results or purpose beyond getting out of a toxic environment or following the status quo. If you're ready to land the career that brings you joy, aligns with your values, addresses what matters to you and that you deserve, act, and make moves because this is for you."
