Pivot Pro: Changing Careers without the Overwhelm
Are you feeling lost in your current job, constantly chasing goals that leave you unfulfilled? Do you suspect your true talents and passions lie elsewhere but are unsure how to find and follow them? Are you ready to take charge of your career and find a path that aligns with your passions, strengths, and values, while meeting your financial needs? This comprehensive package is designed to help you discover, refine, and match to the 'right fit' role and job descriptions. This approach leads with your life's compass, not just what a company posts as a job opening. Just because you can do a job well doesn't mean you should apply for the job. This is especially true if you haven't done the work to learn more about your unique differentiators and combination of talents, skills and desires. Unlock your potential, align your career with your true self, and start thriving in a job that brings you joy and satisfaction. Here's how it works: Complimentary Intro Call (45 Minutes) - This is your opportunity to share your aspirations, challenges, and goals. I'll introduce you to the process and answer any questions you may have, so you can feel equipped and confident to understand the journey ahead. Session 1: Self-Assessment Workshop (60 minutes) - Dive deep into a guided Q&A discovery session where we explore questions that will net multiple career category fits and personality assessment outputs. This workshop lets us dig deeper to align your skills, values, and strengths with the right career categories. Before choosing a direction, this is an important deep-dive to ensure proper alignment for your next phase. Session 2: Clarifying Directions (60 minutes) - In this session, we will review the results of the last session together with a robust and comprehensive report. We’ll narrow down your options to 2-3 promising career paths that resonate most with your unique profile. This clarity will set the stage for focused and strategic career planning. Session 3: Choosing Field and Focus (60 minutes) - Now that we have a clear direction of the field(s) you're most interested in pursuing, we'll drill into one or two selected career paths that rise to the top. We'll identify skill gaps, confidence gaps, or limiting beliefs and understand market demand. Together, we'll build a strategy to enhance your skillsets and discuss how to naturally expand your professional network. Session 4: Harnessing Your Right Role (60 minutes) - This final session will prepare you for the job market with a “Think like a Recruiter” approach. I'll teach you how to use this stakeholder perspective to tighten your approach and become an obvious choice. We'll optimize your LinkedIn profile to make you stand out, help you create a compelling personal and professional narrative, and review your resume with suggested edits. I'll prep you for interviews and give you two optional interviews if you want to practice and refine your technique. Why Choose This Package? Personalized Attention: Tailored sessions that focus on your individual needs and goals. Expert Guidance: Insights and strategies from an experienced career coach. Comprehensive Approach: From self-discovery to job acquisition, we cover every step in a systematic and proven way. Practical Tools: Actionable advice and tools to help you stand out in a competitive job market. AI-Informed Resources: We use cutting-edge tools to help you maintain your evolving journey.
What's included
After you complete a 5-10 minute pre-assessment survey, you'll take assessments on your own and then come back together to discuss self-discovery insights. This initial session will lay the groundwork for our future meetings, starting with broad exploration and gradually focusing on specific job search strategies, identifying open roles, conducting mock interviews, and thorough preparation. Our partnership will include a mix of live sessions and self-study homework between sessions, designed to deepen your understanding and progress over a span of 2 months.

Career Coach | Unlock Your Growth Journey | Former Google Leader
Hi! I'm Lindsay Schultz, a Certified Professional Coach passionate about helping people navigate their life and career journeys with resilience, creativity, and confidence. I'm also a mom to three kids and a wife to my partner, Scott. For fun, I also volunteer my time at senior homes and hospitals with my certified therapy dog, Lydi! We all live in Ann Arbor, Michigan. Before becoming a parent, I was a coach and also mentored people for a few decades. I hold degrees in Psychology and Organizational Studies from the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor. I spent 14 years working at Google, helping businesses digitally adapt and transform to their customers' changing wants and needs. It was a fast-paced, ever-changing world as you can imagine. After 19 years in corporate America, I’ve shifted my focus to help you thrive in your career. The essence of my work is to empower growth, resilience, creative problem-solving, and confidence in people like yourself. My background in business, psychology, and technology combines in a unique way that dials in specifically to you. Through guided prompts, we workshop your story together and go from broad confusion to clarifying specific directions with actionable next steps you will know how to own. Your direction becomes more clear as you harness the 'right-fit' role or the next big goal in your life that aligns your values, interests, and desires. I am convinced that with the right mindset, openness to learning, life hacks, tools, and a strong support network, humans can overcome absolutely anything. That includes moving from confusion and chaos to clarity and alignment. I believe in the art of the possible and that we can rewire and reframe our approach to create better life experiences. My personal experiences have taught me how to overcome significant challenges and turn obstacles into opportunities. We have kids with multiple food allergies who navigate life daily and also had twins born weighing only two-pounds each. Through these battles, I choose resilience and empowerment. I bring this same determination and creativity to my coaching practice. I’m passionate about making space for your story, and committing my time to help you see how to get 'unstuck' so you can have forward progress and find fulfillment. What I Offer: Personalized Career Coaching: Customized sessions designed to meet your specific career needs, whether you’re seeking a new direction, aiming for a promotion, or transitioning into a new industry. Resume and LinkedIn Optimization: Creating impactful resumes and LinkedIn profiles that highlight your strengths and attract potential employers.
