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.

"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."
"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."
"The cycle will not break unless I disrupt it."
"Structured approach to research/learning, a proactive way to channel career uncertainty/anxiety, accountability."
"Made me reflect on what I really wanted for myself in a regimented way."
"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."
"I’m starting my new job today!! Thanks again for creating a platform like WOKEN which has immensely helped me while I was stuck & on the lookout for my next opportunity. Appreciate the guidance & feedback to help me take my next career step!!"
"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."
"My experience has been very good actually. It has given me a lot of tools that I wouldn't come up with them if I didn't have WOKEN, like tools with networking and lots of tips. My career stress is horrible before I used WOKEN. From a scale of 1 to 10, It was like 10 out of 10. Right now I'm not really stressed. I am like a breath of fresh air. You know, like, I think it's a new path, a new experience. It's going to give me exposure. It guides me very well like cover letter, the structure of resume, I like how organized it is, for like clean your contact and read the description of each networking phrase. I will rate it 10, honestly. I think the fact that my career coach has been helping whenever I have doubts, I can always call her. That has been very very helpful."
"I couldn’t have done it without you. Honestly."
