Services

All of my coaching sessions are tailored to you as an individual. In our sessions, you’ll establish your goals and we’ll create a plan to reach them. I’ll help you uncover the things you value and truly care about. We’ll work together to bring your values and career path into closer alignment.

  • In these sessions, we will establish goals that align with you, your values, your desires, the things you care about, and the personal transformation you want to achieve. We will then create action steps and an accountability plan to ensure you reach those goals, centering you and your identity in the process.

  • Session Topics include: Resume Optimization, Cover Letter Writing, Telling Your Story for Interviews, Interview Preparation, LinkedIn Review, Job Search Strategy

  • In each 90-minute session, I will coach you towards the development of a graduate school application that aligns with you, your strengths, your life goals, and your vision. The resulting materials will clearly convey your purpose, your preparation, and make a convincing argument regarding why graduate school is the right next step.

What to expect

I support a wide range of clients and specialize in helping you bring alignment to your emotions, values, and career. Book an exploratory call with me to discuss your individual needs—we’ll craft a personalized coaching plan to get you where you need to be.

College students & early-careers

If you’re a few years out of college, you might have a temporary gig until you find your “real" job or you’ve got an entry-level job that is not doing it for you. You are afraid of meaningless work, not making a difference, sitting behind a computer all day for years and never making a contribution.

You think about your broader job search a lot and your purpose a lot and when the end of the day will be a lot and when the weekend is coming a lot. Work-life balance is a phrase you had never uttered before, but it's now most of what you think about, want, and desire.

You often ponder, “Will I ever find a fulfilling job? Is this really it? I want authentic human interaction and not just professional niceties. I want flexibility, but also stability, and to be paid well, and to learn, and to grow, and to make a contribution. Does that job exist?”

Sound like you? Book an exploratory call where we can discuss your future vision and goals, what’s standing in the way of achieving those, and how we might be able to work together to help you find work that feels purposeful, meaningful, and in alignment with your values.

What you get:

• Tactical advice to help you discover a career path

• Resume & cover letter templates

• Video guides & resources

Mid-career professionals

If you’ve been on a similar job path for 5-10+ years, you feel pretty good about it on some days, but on others, it feels somewhat empty and not really what you thought you’d be doing at this point in your life.

When you took your current role, you thought, “It’s okay, I can do this for a few years until I figure out what I really want.” Now you find yourself doing a lot of soul-searching to figure out what you really care about and how you could do something else that would feel more purposeful with more potential for impact.

You often wonder when you should take the plunge to leave your job, but then you remind yourself how much stability you have and how scary the unknown is, so you put off any future career steps until another day.

Sound like you? Jump on an exploratory call so we can discuss what’s missing for you, where you’re stuck, and how we can take steps to help you make transformative change in your career and life for the better.

What you get:

• Exit strategy & resume prep

• Clarity & alignment sessions

• Redefine your story

Neurodiverse or emotionally dysregulated

You’re the type of person who is deeply reflective about your emotions, the needs of others (think: people pleaser), and you often put their needs before your own. You’ve had various roles and done pretty well in each of them, but you’ve struggled to find a stable and fulfilling career path. You have a knack for thinking outside the box and coming up with innovative ideas and, despite facing numerous setbacks, you have a strong will to improve your situation and succeed.

You might identify as neurodivergent, been diagnosed with ADHD, or have generalized anxiety disorder. This makes it challenging to maintain focus, manage stress, and navigate the complexities of job searching. You often find it difficult to organize your thoughts and tasks, leading to procrastination and incomplete job applications. The job search process feels daunting, which causes you to feel paralyzed and unsure of where to start.

Sound like you? If so, book an exploratory call so we can discuss the structured guidance my coaching could provide you, including clear, step-by-step support through the job search process, practical tools and resources, concrete deadlines to stay on track, a consistent coaching schedule with regular check-ins, and a trauma-informed, empathetic coaching approach that will provide you with a safe space to express your emotions.

What you get:

• Empathetic, trauma-informed sessions a career path

• Digestible, structured exercises

• Consistent support & goal-setting

Academics & Ph.D. students

If you’re a graduate student or recent PhD, you’re starting to realize that you might not want to spend the rest of your life doing research, publishing papers, attending conferences, searching for tenure-track jobs that don’t exist, and doing short-term adjuncting at multiple far-flung universities in the meantime.

You’re ready to step out of academic life, but you don’t know where to begin, don’t have any professional experience outside of research, and aren’t sure if you have any desirable skills that organizations would hire you for. Overall, you’re feeling over-educated, under-experienced, and stuck with what to do next.

Sound like you? Book an exploratory call where we can discuss the things you enjoyed about academia, the things that are less appealing, the skills you’ve developed, and the steps you can take to use your degree outside of academia.

What you get:

• Career mapping strategy sessions

• Values workshopping

• Tactical advice and resources

“Like therapy for my career, Meredith didn’t just ask open-ended questions, she kept the sessions grounded by addressing the root cause of my meandering career confusions. Nothing seemed too daunting to tackle when it came to how I could align my values with my career moves. Never has someone better understood and helped me uncover my underlying motivations. Every session, I took away actionable insights and a digestible to-do list. Meredith saw the potential of my career before I did and it’s dramatically improved how I show up to job interviews and my current workplace.”

— Grace O., Yale Alum, Class of 2022
