CAREER COACHING FOR PARENTS
High-touch coaching programs for parents so you can figure out how to create work-life balance that works for you.
Hey there you high achieving parent 👋
You’ve been contemplating your next career move for a bit too long, right?
(OMG HOW DID SHE KNOW?!)
Maybe for you, it looks a little something like this:
❌ Scrolling through LinkedIn more than you’d like to admit
❌ Dreaming of your resignation only end up back at the same job every Monday
❌ Getting excited by a job posting, but not following through with an application
❌ Feeling overwhelmed by fitting in a job application and interview process when you already have a job and family that requires most of your energy
IN SUMMARY…
YOU’VE GOT BIG ASPIRATIONS, BUT YOU HAVEN’T DONE ANYTHNING ABOUT IT.
I promise you this:
You’re not broken.
You’re not lazy.
You haven’t “lost it” since becoming a parent.
You just need some help.
Making a values and family-aligned career move can change your life.
Bye bye Sunday scaries, and sad daydreams.
Oh hey motivated Mondays you sweet thing.
After working with hundreds of clients, I’ve noticed that people don’t stay at crappy jobs because they want to.
It’s because they’re chasing their career dreams ALL wrong.
What’s blocking your career dreams:
Talking to your partner, friends and family on repeat about what you really want to be doing…without follow-through
Telling yourself that it’s “not the time” to make career moves and you’ll “wait until all the kids are in school full time”
Doom-scrolling LinkedIn and hitting the easy-apply button for jobs you don’t even want
What you actually need to do:
Learn how to translate your varied experience and skills to win your dream job interview
Uncover the work-life rhythms that you really want and need for your family to thrive
Get support in finding ways to maximize family time, while moving your career forward
Stop wasting time dreaming and chatting, and get laser-focused support to propel this change…ASAP
Career Coaching for Parents
This program includes everything you need to FINALLY make that intentional career move you’ve been craving.
1: FIRST
I pamper you with a VIP Day and we create an action plan.
So we can go DEEP and uncover where you are, where you want to go, and an action plan to get there.
*Very Important Parent
2: SECOND
You put the action plan in motion.
With follow-up coaching sessions and my proprietary resources folder (think resume templates, interview prep workbooks etc), you’ll go out and test out the action plan we co-created.
3: THIRD
We recalibrate the action plan.
You aren’t getting rid of me. I’ll be the coach in your corner for 3 months with unlimited email support and cheerleading.
This ain’t your average coaching program. Because parents aren’t “average’.
Here’s what makes you different (and why you need a coach who gets it):
💸 Your time and financial resources are being…shall we say, tested
🚗 You need to take things like daycare drop-offs and midnight wakings into account when thinking about a new job
📈 You’re motivated to grow professionally to the point of still maximizing quality time with your family
✨ You need to think about your long-term life and career aspirations to ensure you’re setting your family up for success
Here’s how it works
-
We’ll hop on a quick Zoom or phone chat to get to know one another, ensure this is exactly what you need at this time, and plan our day of fun.
-
I know..you don’t need one more thing. But hear me out. To make the most of our time together, so we can dive RIGHT in, I’ll have you do a bit of homework including a personality assessment and a short reflection-based workbook.
-
We start with brunch: the most important meal of the day. Then we will head to a co-working space in or near Vancouver to dive into every nook and cranny of your work-life-parenting setup. We’ll identify the cracks, and put a plan in place to get you back to feeling like a rockstar.
-
After our VIP Day, I will send you a detailed action plan. We'll use our 3 follow-up sessions to make tweaks and recalibrate. I'll be your accountability partner, cheerleader and career fairy godmother to make the changes you truly desire in your life.
What my lovely clients are saying…
“I reached out to Andrea for help with achieving some balance in my life as a full time working mother, while also trying to gain some direction with navigating what I wanted my career to look like in 1, 3, 5 years and beyond. Suffice it to say, Andrea was incredible. She was able to draw out a focus in me that, while I knew I had, it had been a long time since I felt truly able to harness and exercise it.”

You’re the perfect fit for career coaching if…
✅ You’re a high-achiever and want to reconnect with your career vision after becoming a parent
✅ You want to make the right career move, not just take any job
✅ Your priority is quality family time
“How can I justify spending money on myself right now?”
Let me play out a scenario for you…
It’s Friday. You’re asked: “So, how was your week?”
And your hand-to-heart reply is…
“I had a super fulfilling week at work".”
“I had a lot of really meaningful time with my family.”
“I’m just loving my work these days.”
“I feel like I have purpose and direction in my career now.”
It sounds dramatic…but truly, you need to ask yourself:
“How much is this kind of fulfillment worth? And what positive impact would this have on my family?”
“How do I know if it’s the right time to make a career move?”
The fact that you’re here and have scrolled this far says something. There’s likely something simmering inside of you, intuitively telling you that a change is needed. Whether that’s for you and your mental health, the needs of your family or…like most of my clients, both.
And like breakups or bringing a baby into the world, there’s no such thing as the “right time”.
It takes courage and strategy to make an intentional career move, but there’s no time like the present. And remember, nothing in life is permanent.
“But I don’t want to make a big career change…”
Career “tweaks” should never be downplayed.
They are just as important and can be just as impactful on you and your family.
A career tweak requires just as much intention as a full-blown career pivot because it has the power to shift the trajectory of your career (I’m talking roles, titles, and financial possibilities).
So yes…if this is you, let’s talk tweaks.
