Find Your Job Joy Program Waitlist

FINALLY!

I LANDED MY DREAM JOB

I learned how to get clear on what I desired in my career – and life! – (hint: it takes more than knowing your Myers Briggs type!) and built a detailed, down-to-the-hour plan of what to do each day to get closer to my career goals.

In a short period of time, I had landed a job in an industry I had no experience in, doing something I had never done before, and at a promoted level. I felt excited to go to work, knew I was making an impact, and finally had the time and energy to date, travel, and indulge in creative pursuits.

I know what you’re thinking (But will it work now?!) – and here’s my answer: This is a tried-and-trued plan that works no matter the state of the economy and world events. In fact, it works especially well then!

I KNOW WHAT IT’S LIKE TO BE SUCCESSFUL BUT STILL SO UNHAPPY AT WORK… IT’S TIME TO FIND A JOB YOU LOVE – WHERE YOU CAN MAKE AN IMPACT (AND GREAT MONEY!), WHILE ALSO HAVING A LIFE!

Do you feel undervalued, unappreciated, or just plain stuck at work?
but lack the confidence, clarity and plan to do anything about it?

Do you know in your heart it’s time for a change, but have no idea what’s next?
…so you stay in the same toxic, dead-end job for months – or years – longer than you should.

Do you regularly experience the Sunday Blues and have to use sheer willpower to drag yourself out of bed each morning just to start the day?
Maybe you even say “no” to fun on the weekend so as to not let your two days of freedom pass by too quickly.

And worse, now your job is affecting the rest of your life
including the energy and time you have to put into your health, relationship with your significant other (or finding them!), friendships, passions, and just plain enjoying life.

You probably ask yourself, “Shouldn’t I just be grateful to have a job? Who really loves their job anyway?“
Lots of people do, and you can be next. You can be grateful and want more. You deserve to not just love your job and make a huge impact, but to make great money and have a wonderful life outside of the office!

GET RE-ACQUAINTED WITH THE REAL YOU – THE ONE WITH SO MUCH SPIRIT AND EXCITEMENT FOR LIFE – WHEN YOU FINALLY HAVE THE CLARITY, CONFIDENCE, AND PLAN TO GO AFTER YOUR CAREER DREAMS

This is way bigger than just being happier at work. Finding joy and fulfillment in your career means more influence and impact, more leadership, as well as having the respect (and paycheck!) you deserve.

It’s about being fulfilled in your career AND also having the time, energy, space and resources to build a life you love – full of love, connection, adventure and lifelong memories.

I’VE DESIGNED THIS PROGRAM TO HELP YOU BE HAPPIER AND MORE FULFILLED IN YOUR CAREER.

Not only will you feel more in control of your day-to-day happiness at work, but you’ll have the tools to build a career you love, whether you stay put, land a new job, completely change careers, or even turn your side hustle into your full-time gig.

We’re all sold this idea that you graduate college, get a job, and then build your life around it. I want you to do the opposite.

Find Your Job Joy is about getting clear on what you really want from your work and life, and then finding, creating – or even tweaking your current job! – so that it is both fulfilling in it’s own right and also supports the rest of your amazing life.

Many programs give you resume templates and interview tips. Sure, we’ll cover that, but we’re going to go way deeper.

…BUT NOW YOU’RE WONDERING IF YOU’LL BE STUCK IN THIS JOB INDEFINITELY.

A few months, or maybe years?

If you’re nodding your head, this program is most definitely for you! I don’t want you in the same position 1 year from now!

Doing nothing is costing you more than your happiness at work.

Staying in a less-than-ideal job affects the rest of your life – your health and overall well-being, your relationship with your partner, kids and friends, your energy, spirit and love of life! … Basically everything that makes life worth living! You can’t put a price on that!

Jenni

Director of Accounting

“Before working with Kristen, I felt lost and unsatisfied. Now I feel like I have a purpose, like I know how to take steps forward.

My advice to you is as follows – take the class, listen to Kristen (like really listen), listen to your gut & take action…but be patient. Make the list of what you want & go for it.

Know in your heart that you deserve the very best, because what you do for you, affects everyone in your life – your kids, your spouse, your parents & your coworkers. My goal has always been to “make happy moms & dads”…well, I deserve to be one of those too.”

Ashley

Financial Advisor

Before working with Kristen, I felt lost, burnt out, depressed, overwhelmed, anxious.

“Kristen and I worked together over this past summer and I couldn’t be more grateful for how much of an impact she has had in my life! Kristen brought out the confident Ashley that I have been so desperately trying to find.

When Kristen and I first started working together, I thought the majority of our work together would be regarding my job; but it was so much more than that! We set habits that I still use to this day and don’t ever anticipate stopping!

Kristen’s energy is what drew me into her coaching program and I am sure that anyone who tries her coaching will be as grateful as I am!“

Geri

Biomedical Technical Educator

Before working with Kristen, I felt lost, burnt out, depressed, overwhelmed, anxious.

“Kristen is so supportive and gives individual as well as group support.

She is always so energetic and upbeat. Plus, the lessons are very well put together – I’ve learned something in each one. I looked forward to the trainings a lot because of that.

With the environment that we have going on today, her enthusiasm is very encouraging and supportive. She isn’t so professional that she’s stuffy and yet just personable enough that you feel like you’re talking to a friend. Let’s say she’s real. I like that a lot!”

Before working with Kristen, I felt lost, burnt out, depressed, overwhelmed, anxious.

Angelene

Web Designer

Before working with Kristen, I felt lost, burnt out, depressed, overwhelmed, anxious.

“I’d recommend Kristen to anyone who’s seeking more clarity and confidence in their career. She truly cares about her clients and helping them find their Job Joy. Throughout our time together, I felt totally supported.

I’d been at the same company for a long time and hadn’t thought about the process of getting a job in a long time. Kristen helped me gain clarity and discover that a shift in positions was right for me. She showed me current methods to get the job…. hint, it’s not just sending your resume out into the ether!

Kristen also brought out a confidence in me that I hadn’t seen in a long time. Because of this I have been truly comfortable talking to people about my story and letting my true light shine through.

If you’re looking for your Job Joy, Kristen’s your gal!

Cheryl

Bank Executive

“Before working with Kristen, I was really disillusioned with my job and felt both tired and trapped. It didn’t feel sustainable. Now I feel like I have options and significant flexibility to make my days better.

Learning about networking and having an effective online presence was so helpful. It was also really helpful to really think about my priorities at this stage in my life. I like how Kristen guides you to consider your whole life (and what you truly want) before making career moves. Clarity first, then action. This helped me avoid knee-jerk reactions and take control of making my current job better where I could.

Kristen is an excellent coach and knowledgeable advisor. She’ll help you look inward to understand what really matters to you then support you while you take action. You’ll realize you have the power to make yourself happier and that change is always possible.”

Sarah

Associate Buyer

Job Joy is now a part of my vocabulary! I’m putting my wellness schedule first this year. You made me realize how to widen my impact as a project manager. Thank you, Kristen!

“I am beyond grateful and excited for what Kristen has done for me. She truly listens to you and what your goals are. She’s not afraid to challenge you and give you steps to achieve your goals. Her follow up skills are amazing!

I am so thankful I found her and I wouldn’t be where I am today without her. I found my dream job with the salary to go with it. I will definitely be working with her more. Excited to see what the future holds. She’s a true JOY!”

WANT TO HEAR MORE?

Over 90% of participants rated the program a 9 or 10/10 and more than half gave it a perfect 10 (except for the person who rated it 11/10!)

IF YOU ARE…

• A high-achiever, frustrated with the corporate rat race
• Desiring more joy and fulfillment in your career (while also getting paid well!)
• Looking for your like-minded community who also want more from their careers
• Willing to examine your long-held beliefs about success, worth and what really matters in life
• Sooo ready to have a career you absolutely love – where you are valued, make a difference, and have time to have an amazing life outside of the office!

Then I invite you to join us in this live, online program!

It’s time to re-define success on your own terms, to have the courage to go after the career and life you deserve, and to step into the best, most vibrant version of yourself.

No more waiting, hoping and praying for things to get better. It’s time to prioritize yourself and your career – and know that when you do, everyone around you benefits.

It’s time to become living proof to your family, friends and community that they, too, can be happy, fulfilled and successful in their career AND have an amazing life full of meaning, love, joy, adventure and treasured memories.

This is not for you if…

• You’re looking for a magic pill or someone to just tell you what to do. Of course, you’ll have all the tools, accountability, and support needed to make your dream career a reality. But I won’t simply tell you what to do in your next role, for example. Why? Because listening to others’ (instead of tuning into your own truth) is likely what got you in a less-than-ideal place to begin with!
• You’re unwilling to do the work (both the tactical and inner work)
• You’re just looking for a j-o-b (versus a career that you’re going to love for the long-term)

“My confidence is back! I am interviewing a lot. I’m asking for interviews. The confidence is shining through… I feel like the spark is back and I’ve learned so much.

If you’re on the fence, I was in your position. I was concerned about the money. I was looking for a job; I was unemployed… For me, it was worth it – I made great connections, got my confidence back, and I know what I’m looking for. Commit to the program. It is a great investment.“

UPDATE: Shortly after taping, Courtney landed her fairytale dream job and couldn’t be happier!”

Courtney

Global Marketing Manager

“I burnt out in the process of getting my PhD and I needed some time off…

I still don’t have a job but that’s because I’ve been taking things at my own pace. But I feel a lot better because I’ve been taking proactive steps.

For me the main takeaways were confidence and I know more what I’m going for… I really have enjoyed being part of the community, in addition to the coaching.”

Jill

Urban & Environmental Health Researcher

“[Before Find Your Job Joy] I was looking for a job, but instead of being focused on this being a fantastic opportunity… I was still in total emotional overwhelm.

Now I can speak confidently about the great work I’ve done in that last position, without going into all the stuff that was horrible. I’m having fantastic conversations with people… Another outcome beyond owning my story was that I changed what I was looking for.

The community was just beyond wonderful – a fantastic group of women from so many different backgrounds and places in their career. It was great to have that support.

[The program] was definitely worth it for me.“

Johanne

Sr Business Analyst

“I had been at my job for four years, and was feeling squelched… I really needed a change. I felt dismissed and discounted – it was a drag.

[Since working together] a whole lot has changed. I resigned from my old job and took a new job in my field. … I feel renewed energy, … like I have a career that fits.

Some things I found super helpful: the interview coaching, a new enthusiasm for professional networking… plus holistic things like being intentional, thinking about how I want to show up.. and most of all, I really enjoyed the experience of community with other Job Joy people – and you for providing a really safe, supportive environment.

The investment in a career coach is well worth it. And I didn’t just have any career coach – you’re amazing, and so intuitive, and not judgmental … and you’re so skilled. I’m going to carry this with me throughout the next decade of work.”

Barb

Grants & Contract Specialist

WHEN DOES THE COURSE BEGIN AND END?

Find Your Job Joy begins as soon as you register when the doors open in September! You’ll get instant access to my Jumpstart Orientation materials, so you can be sure to get the most from the program!

The first official training will be released on Monday, October 18th and the program will continue for 11 weeks (8 weeks of trainings plus 2 integration weeks and holiday break).

While I encourage you to participate throughout, you’ll have access to the trainings forever – so you can go at your own pace and re-visit the content as often as you like, from anywhere in the world. What won’t last are the awesome bonuses, so get on this, and take the first step towards joy and fulfillment in your career!

WILL ALL OF THE TRAININGS BE RECORDED?

Yes, all the trainings and Office Hours calls are recorded – meaning you can download and listen to each call as many times as you want.

And if you have questions, you can post in the private Facebook group or ask during our weekly live Office Hours calls.

WILL THERE BE A WAY FOR ME TO ASK QUESTIONS?

Of course! In addition to 24/7 support from me in our private Facebook group, you’ll also have the chance to experience laser coaching with me on our weekly Office Hours calls.

WHAT IF I DON’T WANT TO LEAVE MY CURRENT JOB?

No problem, I get it. I’m not about encouraging people to leave their jobs – unless that is what will make them happy.

Many of my clients are able to drastically improve their current roles while maintaining and leveraging the experience and reputation equity they’ve built up.

The tools, techniques and strategies I teach you for job search are also crucial to establishing yourself as a leader in your organization and industry, and building the connections that will lead to all sorts of career-boosting opportunities like speaking engagements, media quotes, and more.

I’M NOT CLEAR ON WHAT I WANT TO DO – WILL THIS PROGRAM HELP ME WITH THAT?

You’re in EXACTLY the right place. Even those who do know what they want to do could benefit from more clarity!

Clarity is a foundational piece to building a career you love. Without it, you land the job, get the promotion or change careers and then months later realize you’re still not happy.

This program will support you in gaining clarity, and then help you build a plan to explore your options and go after the one that is most aligned.

THIS ISN’T A GOOD TIME. WILL YOU BE OFFERING THIS AGAIN ?

Truth: Life will always be busy and you’ll always have a lot competing for your attention. It’s time to choose you, to make yourself and your career a priority. If you don’t do it, no one will. And in one year (heck, maybe even 10 years!), you could be in the same position, wishing you had started today.

Another truth: I’m not sure I’ll be offering this program in this way again – and if I do, when that would be or what the investment would be. If you’re interested but on the fence, let’s talk and I’ll help you decide if now is (or isn’t) the right time.

HOW IS YOUR PROGRAM DIFFERENT FROM OTHER CAREER COURSES?

One of the biggest differences is that we go way beyond resume tips and interview prep. While that’s included, of course, it’s much deeper and more holistic than that.

This is not just about finding a job – you can do that! It’s about landing the right job and building a career that lights you up – that’s aligned with your personality, passion and priorities in life.

We start from a place of clarity to ensure that you’re on the right path (no more action for action’s sake!), and we build a personalized plan and take ACTION. Because all the reflecting in the world does us no good without inspired action.

HOW MUCH TIME WILL I NEED TO SET ASIDE EACH WEEK?

It depends. Each week’s training will be about 1-2 hours, and then it’s up to you to take action. I recommend spending at least an hour outside of our content call implementing.

But remember – you’ve got access to this information forever. So you can go at your own pace, catch up and re-watch later, and choose to focus on the topics that are most pressing to you right now.

IS THIS PROGRAM FOR WOMEN ONLY?

Great question! No. In the past we’ve run separate groups for men and women, but after hearing from you that you’d love to hear the perspective of the opposite sex, we’re going co-ed! See Men’s Testimonials here.

“My advice for you all who are thinking of working with Kristen is definitely go out and do it.

I feel like she’s my personal cheerleader in my career. Every time you think you’re struggling or don’t know what to do, you message her and she’s like “You got this. Here are some steps.

She’s there cheering you on and making sure you’re being true to you. So definitely do it; don’t be afraid. It’s a safe, comfortable, space.”

Liz

People Operations Consultant

“It’s been very inspirational, being able to connect with people who are also wanting to be high achiever in their roles.

The advice that I would give someone interested in working with Kristen would be to be ready to have change come. She keeps you accountable. If you’re going to say your goal out loud, just know you’re going to be working through it.

Change is hard, but she walks you through it, holding your hand every step of the way. But you’re doing the work. It’s empowering. She’s inspirational and empowering.”

Mara

Occupational Health Professional

“I want to make others happy when I go to work, and sometimes I forget about making myself happy.

If anyone is thinking about working with Kristen, I would say “Don’t even think twice.” When I met her for the first time, she was so enthusiastic, so happy to help me make a change in my life.

The only hesitation was making the time to make it work and meet with the group. You have many reasons why you can’t like family and other responsibilities, and you just have to decide to choose you. And that’s what I did.

Kristen’s going to help me all year choose me! I think I’m going to be 100% better – a better boss, a better leader, a better mom, and I hope that it exudes happiness on everyone around me and they can just trickle that out into the world.

I would not give back any second – so thankful to you, Kristen for helping me through it.”

Jennifer

Director of Accounting

“It’s been very inspirational, meeting all the wonderful women that were part of it, and hearing their stories and path to get to where they’re at currently – that’s been my favorite part.

My advice for anyone who is considering a career coach and looking at Kristen is to know that she is very real and genuine. She truly cares about helping you get to a better place in your career and life. I think she’s great.”

Amy

Sr Director, Finance & Reporting
