explore what’s next, take the leap

Career transitions are more than job changes—they're invitations to realign with your true self.

Whether you're feeling the nudge for change or standing at a crossroads, this is your space to explore what's next.

This is for you if…

You’re in between — roles, identities, chapters.
You want clarity, but not just the kind that lives on a spreadsheet.
You want your next step to feel like you — not just look good on paper.

How I can support you

I help you reconnect to what matters, while shining a light on your strengths, so your next move isn’t just smart — it’s true.

Our work might include:

→ Uncovering your natural talents through the CliftonStrengths® and LINC PP assessments
→ Coaching to explore what’s next, aligned with your strengths and values
→ Somatic practices to ground you in your body’s wisdom
→ Mindfulness tools to help you move forward with more presence, less pressure

There’s no formula. Just staying present with what is emerging, one step at a time.

Why this work feels different

I’m a career and leadership coach certified (Gallup-Certified CliftonStrengths® Coach, PCC).
Also a mindfulness and somatic coach, a systems thinker, and a former economist and consultant. With 15+ years in corporate and 6+ years coaching leaders, I bring both strategic insight and deep presence to the table.

What clients say

It's surprising how, during sessions, we remember dreams we once abandoned. As we look deeper into ourselves we find that not only can we pursue these dreams, but we can also succeed.

—Cecilia, Artist

I was miserable at my old job. I didn't know whether to leave right away or to keep working while searching for a new job. I also didn't know what I wanted my new job to be, but I knew I wanted a change. From the very first call, Paula was able to make me feel comfortable and used different tools to help me realize what to do. Highly recommend her as a coach!!

—M. Director, Fortune 500 Company
