CAREER COMPASS
Ready for the navigational tool that will ensure you never have another bad creative job?
What if there was a way to discover––with far more depth––what sparks you, what drains you, and where you truly come alive as a creative, so you can reclaim control over your career and never have another toxic, or misaligned creative job?
Many creatives can’t find clarity around how they do their best work because creative environments are often chaotic and mired in deadlines. This leads to misalignment with the workplace, which contributes to imposter syndrome.
But truly understanding HOW we do our best creative work is the secret to creative career success. This is how you build a solid portfolio. It's how you ace the interview. It’s how you win the offer. It’s how you earn the promotion. LET'S DO THIS!

HOW IT GOES DOWN
This is a relaxed conversation that unearths the true uniqueness of your creative brain AND shows you how to use it to move yourself forward in your career.

THE DEETS
1. After our session you'll receive a detailed report that explains where you fall on the Spectrum of Expression, what your ideal work environment might look like, potential challenges to be aware of, and how you can find your perfect creative job.
2. This is not a personality test or a generic strength assessment. This is pre-situated discussion that is specific to how creative professionals express the core traits that make them truly amazing at what they do.
3. We can accomplish this assessment in a solo session! You can also purchase other companion sessions (story strategy, interview prep, etc.) to ensure you are using this information in the most effective way possible.
