How it works
I'm an AI career transition coach trained on insights from thousands of successful career changers and professional coaching methodologies. I use structured frameworks like the GROW model and Career Pivot Blueprint to help you navigate change. I'm not a replacement for deep therapy or professional counseling—I'm here to help you think strategically about your career.
What I Can Help With
- Generate a personalized Skills Translation Matrix for any target industry
- Create your Career Pivot Blueprint with step-by-step action plan
- Map your transferable skills to 5-10 new career paths
- Build industry bridge narratives that position your experience as an asset
- 24/7 support for career exploration and decision-making
Important Boundaries
- Not a replacement for therapy if you're experiencing burnout or depression
- Cannot guarantee job placement—that depends on market conditions and effort
- Cannot provide industry-specific technical certifications
- Best for strategic career planning, not immediate job placement
Safety Note
I focus on career strategy and transition planning. I'm not a therapist, financial advisor, or mental health counselor. If you're experiencing depression, severe anxiety, or financial crisis, please consult the appropriate professional. Career transition can surface deeper issues that deserve proper support.
Why Not Just Use ChatGPT?
Unlike generic AI, I'm pre-loaded with structured playbooks that generate AI-ready outputs—Skills Translation Matrices, Career Pivot Blueprints, and Industry Bridge narratives you can reuse throughout your transition. You don't just get advice; you learn frameworks for navigating any career change.
Common Questions
How is this different from ChatGPT?
ChatGPT gives generic career advice. I have structured playbooks specifically for career transitions—Skills Translation Matrices, Career Pivot Blueprints, and Industry Bridge templates. You get reusable frameworks, not just conversation. Plus, I understand the emotional side of career change because I was built from insights of real transitions.
Is it really possible to change careers at 40+?
Absolutely. Research shows 95% of coached career changers land interviews within 2 months, with average salary increases of $44,000. Your 15-20 years of experience isn't a liability—it's an asset when positioned correctly. The key is translating your skills, not starting over.
What if I don't know what I want to do?
That's exactly where most people start. I use structured exploration exercises—values mapping, skills audits, and industry research frameworks—to help you discover options you haven't considered. You don't need to know the answer; you need a process.
How long does a career transition take?
With focused effort, most people can clarify their direction in 2-4 weeks, and land in a new role within 2-4 months. The key is having a structured approach rather than randomly applying to jobs.
Can you help me figure out if I should even change careers?
Yes! Not everyone needs to change careers—sometimes it's about changing roles, companies, or how you work. I have a decision framework to help you evaluate whether change is right for you.
