“Do what you love and you’ll never work a day in your life.”

Are you enthusiastically nodding? Or is your BS-o-Meter blaring?

Honestly, I’m somewhere in the middle! Like most oversimplified quotes dubiously attributed to Confucius, the truth is in the nuance.

This has been the mission of my coaching practice since day one:

Design a career you love

This is the ROI that I promise to my clients.

And I take that promise seriously. As a data nerd who measures success by real impact on real people—and has a deep aversion to grifters (in an industry full of them)—I spend a lot of time defining exactly what "love" means in the context of work so I can consistently deliver on it.

A career you love does not mean:

• Making your work your primary source of identity, validation, and community
• Indexing on passion over paycheck (in this economy?!)
• Never having to do boring, stressful, or tedious tasks
• That your perfectionism and people pleasing tendencies will magically disappear
• The systems that make labor soul-sucking no longer apply to you

A career you love is one you intentionally choose

Yes, we celebrate your job offers, business launches, and promotions. But the real ROI of our work together is greater agency over your career and the life it supports—today and as you and the world continue to evolve.

“I feel grounded, expansive, and confident about what I actually want now.”
​—Chief of Staff, Nonprofit

“I now have much more confidence in my abilities and clarity around what I want.”
​— Marketing & Communications

“The world seems more full of possibility. I’m in control of my destiny.”​
—Engineer & Writer

“I have so much clarity and agency over my career.”
​—Staff Software Engineer

“I now have a framework to make sure every career decision aligns with my values.”
​—Teacher to Executive Assistant

And selfishly, I want you to love your career!

Because when passionate powerhouses like you are grounded and moving with intention (and not sprinting 1K mph towards some nonsense), you launch innovative products, lead inspiring movements, and show up beautifully for the people who matter most to you.

Yes, even in #LateStageCapitalism.
