Learn how we helped Holly to be proactive, structured, and deliberate in understanding her transferrable skills, confidently deciding on which career direction felt most compatible, and successfully pivoting into that path.
We hear people often say, "where do I start?" or "I fell into this career path instead of choosing a path intentionally" or "money isn't enough anymore, I need to find fulfillment at work" and much more.
We are here to help you expedite your years of frustration, time-block your uncertainty, and take control of clarifying your best fit path before jumping into any job search.

"Structured approach to research/learning, a proactive way to channel career uncertainty/anxiety, accountability."
"As I'm going through a career change myself, from being a lawyer to pursuing my passion as a UX designer, I could not relate more to WOKEN's mission and I truly believe in your product's value proposition and potential. After graduating from law school, I felt like I didn't have the tools to make an informed decision about my professional future and worked as a lawyer just because it was the natural path. Thanks to you, I now know the importance of self-reflection to ask the right question that would lead to the right answers about your career path."
"I've made changes at my current job, and am working to make a move to a new industry when the time is right. I feel reinvigorated, and I really don't think I could have gotten to where I am now without the support and guidance that I got from working with my career coach. While I will say, the work has to come from the individual. No one will do any of these things for you. Working with my career coach gave me the confidence to reach out and talk to strangers. It facilitated my journey of finding what I need to be doing with my career, and I couldn't be more grateful."
"There is a difference between being casually interested and actually wanting to live, eat, and breathe an industry/role."
"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!! "
"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
"The well-organized platform was particularly helpful during the career exploration and networking phases. As the job search progressed, biweekly coaching calls were incredibly useful in helping prepare for interviews. On the platform, I particularly liked the prompts to prepare for networking calls."
"I’m so grateful to have worked with my coach at WOKEN. 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."
"The program provides the structure to methodically work through the process of career exploration, job searching, and networking. I love the platform, the ability to move at my own pace, and the promptness of the feedback. I have gained clarity in how my skills can be transferred to other careers beyond education."
"The structure and focus of WOKEN's's program are absolutely on the ball. The feedback and fine tuning of application materials, networking strategies, and the job hunt itself are timely, specific, actionable, constructive, and definitely appreciated. Highly recommend."
