MEANINGFUL CAREER COACHING

FIND CLARITY IN YOUR REAL LIFE’S WORK & BUILD A PLAN TO SOON MAKE A GOOD LIVING DOING IT

for purpose-seeking individuals who AREN'T HAPPY AT WORK AND have bigger impact goals than they are currently meeting

Are you stuck in between doing unfulfilling work, clarifying what you actually want to do, and finding a well-paid & meaningful job?

You feel like you are not making use of your best personality traits at work (for example you are a people’s person doing highly analytical work,…).

Perhaps you already tried applying for a job that fueled you with purpose, but got rejected due to high competition. Or perhaps you are not even trying because you believe it is not possible to make good money doing meaningful work.

In any case, you might be losing your confidence in ever moving out of your non-fulfilling situation. And this is what is making you feel stuck!

“In just 6 weeks I not only got a new job, that pays more & I’m passionate about, but also more confidence & clarity about what I am looking for in a future career.

Alja helped me work out my minimum income threshold, and rewrite my CV. She helped with networking tips, linked-in tips & interviewing tips. But most importantly, she also did a lot of mental work with me, which helped me see all the opportunities out there, and act on them.”

Stop losing your hope, pause, and design your meaningful career from the inside out...

For your career to utilize your full potential and place you alongside like-minded people, you first need to get in touch with your true value and clarify your down-to-earth purpose.

Understanding the social impact of your future contribution will fuel you with the motivation to progress in your transition, and help you see the best matching options with a ‘fresh pair of eyes.’

Already my first career coaching session with Alja was mind blowing and healing in every level. I quit the job that was making me so unhappy that very day. I never went back. In sessions after she started me on a journey to work towards my purpose and true goals. I got a higher paid job in a nicer environment, where I gained more respect and leadership autonomy. I also acted on pursuing my song-writing passion as a hobby.

Alja is truly a beautiful soul. She has come a long way in her personal development and I know she can help you do the same. I found my true purpose after two career coaching sessions with her ! I will be forever grateful for you, my friend. Thank you!

Are you ready to step into your full worth and design your meaningful career?

Start owning your vision by first systematically researching & narrowing down the sectors, companies and roles you feel inspired by and would like to belong to.

Make important notes in the process (for example key messaging for on your future CV) , and explore the transferability of your current experience and skills. This is your foundation for a successful meaningful job search.

Alja's coaching helped me in my journey to better connect with what I really care about and stand for. I was in a corporate job for some years, and felt very unsatisfied but did not know what else there could be. I come from a belief system that you have to work hard and be satisfied when having a well-paying job. I have followed this without questioning it, but suddenly came to a point where I realized this was not what I believed in. This was when Alja's coaching first supported me in understanding what my values are, and what I want my life and career to be looking like. Alja supported me in gaining trust in myself, exploring my career options and standing up for myself. After 'Meaningful Career Clarity' coaching, I decided to take a sabbatical, and do a systemic coaching course & yoga teacher training. Meanwhile Alja helped me with getting a new job in a company that better matches my personality and beliefs. Now, I am about to start a new job, and teach yoga on the side. The whole process has been very rewarding - I grew so much self-awareness, and self-worth that I cannot even believe it.

Heike Bitterle, Customer Success Manager & Yoga TeacherMunich, Germany

Alja has had a big influence in all aspects of my life. Most noticeably, she has helped me to gain better perspective on what is important to me both on a career and personal level. Following on from this, Alja and I have worked together to re-evaluate how I define success and I am no longer bench-marking myself against others but instead setting goals based on the values that are important to me.

Build a personalized career-change plan (purpose-driven job search plan OR upskilling plan) that aligns with your purpose-ambition & lifestyle goals.

A good career change plan doesn’t only contain a list of the top organizations you want to work and/or your entrepreneurial ideas. It also contains consistent mindset elevation and process checklist throughout all the career-change stages.

OPTION 1:

If you find that you are already qualified for the career direction you want to go towards, then you can make a good job search plan: from CV/cover letter creation, interview preparation, to key negotiation points.

OPTION 2:

If you find that you need to gain some additional education before you can make a transition, you should conduct research on which institutions are best to help you quality & cost-wise.

OPTION 3:

If you realize that you want to walk the entrepreneurial path, it is time for business conceptualization and strategy.

6 STEP PROCESS OF WORKING TOGETHER

1. FREE DISOCVERY CALL

This is where you can tell me more about yourself, about where you are at, and about where you’d like to be after working together. I’d like to understand your life situation to assess if I am the right coach for you.

2. COACHING AGREEMENT

If you decide to work with me, I will send you a coaching agreement to sign, and an invoice to pay via e-mail. As soon as I receive both, we are officially ‘a coach’ and ‘a client’ for the reminder of the program.

3. PLANNING SESSIONS

Before our first session begins it is important to agree on the dates, times & location of our sessions. It is recommended to do it weekly at the same time, however +1/2 days of variation is okay.

4. COACHING SESSIONS

Come fully prepared into the session. This means create mental space, be in a private room (if online), have the technology ready to support you (lap top if online), a notebook, and a pen.

5. IN-BETWEEN COACHING

If you have any questions, or need support in between the sessions, you can reach out to me via e-mail or whats-app. I will respond to you as soon as I will be able to, given my other obligations.

6. FEEDBACK

After our last session, our work together is complete. This is the time for you to voice any unmet needs, and to give me feedback to further improve my service. I will also ask you for a public testimonial (optional).
