"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!"

"I personally think our conversation opened the door to me thinking about a move into education / being open to a move into education. I often think about you as people ask me how I approached this career transition - you were really the first person to push me to focus on what *I* wanted to do, rather than using it as a relative tiebreaker factor. "

"The assessment was hard but really made me think!!!!"

"I started using WOKEN at a time in my professional life when I was very direction-less. I was confused and unsure. I had been in a role that was not a good fit for me and what I wanted to do, but I felt stuck and out-of-control as to how and when to make a change. The biggest difference after using the WOKEN platform is a mindset change. My coach's confidence rubbed off on me, really just because I feel prepared now. I feel informed. I feel like I am in control now and that naturally lowers anyone's anxiety. What was the biggest benefit for me was not just keeping myself accountable, but USING the platform's tools to make things easier for me. Tracking who I wanted to network with, which companies I wanted to target, notes from networking calls, as well as questions I wanted to ask. It acted as a central hub to keep myself organized through what I assumed initially would be a very chaotic process. And practically, the direction in updating my resume was SO valuable! ...Who should use WOKEN? Everyone. People who naturally have networking and "career-building" personalities would probably thrive with the platform, but people like myself who find professional networking more challenging would benefit immensely from the guidance the platform provides. It's not magic and it's not EASY. It takes a lot of work, just like anything. But it is guidance. It is specific direction. It is not vague or ambiguous. It is a toolbox for anyone confused or unsure about their next professional move."

"During the past few months, I’ve been working with my career coach to help determine what my next career steps are. I entered the process feeling stuck, defeated and open to suggestions for finding what my path and purpose is. Through the assessment, the one-on-one coaching, the group coaching sessions (realizing I’m not alone and hearing others’ strategies), and self-reflection and journaling, I now feel SO FREE, excited, & relieved in pursuing my PhD in Psychology. During the process, I have been overwhelmed with gratitude for my career coach and her team at WOKEN for her grace and expertise in helping me get there. I now feel like I’m doing what I was put in this universe to do, and I have never felt so much joy or freedom in my vocational pursuits." #gratitude #coaching #freedom #reflection #dothework #getunstuck

"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!"

"The accountability, direction, and motivation from my career coach. And also, really taking the time to reflect on what I have done, what my strengths, weaknesses, and what I can do, through the platform."

"Definitely helpful, allowed me to change my thoughts about applying to jobs and helped me narrow in on the right career path for me. WOKEN was definitely very helpful to realize that my desired goal is attainable."

"The WOKEN process really is different."

"You've been an amazing help!!! I couldn't have done this without your support and encouragement, especially in my darkest days these past few months."
