"I keep being so hard on myself to know what I want to do right now but I like that this platform encourages me to take my time and doesn't push for me to have a definitive answer right away."

"I would recommend WOKEN to anyone who wants to spend a bit of time really considering the best career path before diving head-first into the job search. As a mid-career professional, I was not sure that I needed career exploration, but I got a lot of value out of this step. Without this service, I know I would have wasted a lot of time applying to roles that were not a great fit for me. Having the confidence to approach the process with patience allowed me to land not just a job, but a great job that feels perfectly suited to me."

"I'm getting insight into roles I've never even thought about."

"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."

My coach at WOKEN provided wonderful advice/training. I was able to think of things from an outside perspective which really helped. The benefit of WOKEN for me was being able to better understand what types of roles I’m interested in and why. I think anyone and everyone could use this type of platform.

"I'm so grateful to have worked with my career coach. She is knowledgeable, responsive, and overall a great coach - she knows when to support, when to push a little harder, and how to help her clients get out of their own way. I can't recommend her highly enough."

"Whether you are feeling stuck, unfulfilled, or just starting out in your career, I would highly recommend working with my career coach. She will help you find a career path that you will love and is best suited for you. Her framework is both methodical and well structured, and she genuinely has your best interest. She is highly skilled in all aspects of career development and exploration. My career path is unique and has a lot of nuances, but she was able to guide me to significantly more clarity, as well as develop solutions to identify the best career path and course of action for me. I am very glad to have crossed paths with my career coach!"

"Thanks so much for all of your help and for pushing me to pursue a better career for myself. I wanted to let you know I was recently offered a new job last week and I'm going to accept it tomorrow. I think WOKEN is amazing and you are truly going to help so, so many people. Thank you again for all the work and time you committed to help me pursue the best opportunities. I really appreciate it!!"

"During the past few months, I’ve been working with my career coach to help determine what my next career steps are. I entered the process feeling stuck, defeated and open to suggestions for finding what my path and purpose is. Through the assessment, the one-on-one coaching, the group coaching sessions (realizing I’m not alone and hearing others’ strategies), and self-reflection and journaling, I now feel SO FREE, excited, & relieved in pursuing my PhD in Psychology. During the process, I have been overwhelmed with gratitude for my career coach and her team at WOKEN for her grace and expertise in helping me get there. I now feel like I’m doing what I was put in this universe to do, and I have never felt so much joy or freedom in my vocational pursuits." #gratitude #coaching #freedom #reflection #dothework #getunstuck

"Everything I have done so far has been valuable. Thank you!! I think this is a really great platform. Thank you for making me take a step back and trust the process!! "
