Career Transition

Relaunch Your Career

How Do You Begin?

  • Have you been out of the workforce while caring for your family?
  • Do you feel disconnected from your former professional self?
  • Have you lost contact with former colleagues?
  • Are you struggling to explain your resume gap?
  • Are you concerned about ageism?
  • Are you feeling less professional confidence?

There is hope — companies have become more interested in attracting women to return to work. I can help you with your career relaunch.

Our Process Together

Where are you today?

  • Get clear on your situation — why are you returning to work?
  • Explore your life values — where does a career fit now?
  • Prioritize your values — what is your ideal work/life balance?
  • Identify your skills — what did you enjoy in your former career?
  • Volunteer work may be transferrable — how did you develop during your career break?

What’s your future?

  • What are your interests?
  • What are your transferrable skills?
  • Which careers fit your values and lifestyle?
  • Which ones will be most meaningful?
  • What work culture makes you comfortable?

Develop a strategy

  • Create a clear narrative of your readiness to relaunch
  • Develop a positioning that frames your resume gap strategically
  • Create your impactful career narrative to communicate your value
  • Build a new professional network
  • Develop strategies for flexible work arrangements

Create an action plan – step-by-step

  • Write your resume and cover letters that demonstrate your value — with results, skills, and impact
  • Prepare for interviews — build confidence
  • Feel supported throughout the process — with accountability

As a recognized expert on women relaunching careers, I have led webinars on Strategies for Relaunching Careers for multiple universities, including Columbia, University of Chicago, and UCLA. Working Mother magazine featured an article that I wrote on key strategies for women before taking career breaks.

  • Part-time employee in the office
  • Part-time remote employee
  • Contractor
  • Project basis

I am now an entrepreneur with a successful coaching practice. I have developed effective strategies for flexible work arrangements that are advantageous to both employers and employees.
