“You work at [insert company name]? That’s so impressive.” Everyone’s impressed by your job except you. Even with the big salary and senior title, something feels off. Because a job can look good on paper and still feel completely out of alignment. This happens more often than people admit, especially for Black women in corporate. You join a top company thinking it’ll open doors, build credibility, maybe offer some security. And while it might do all that… → You don’t believe in the mission → You feel disconnected from the work → Every meeting leaves you wondering, “Why am I even here?” You’re not ungrateful. You’ve just outgrown the version of success you used to chase. Money, prestige and titles are nice, but they’re not the whole story. The next level of your career is about more purpose, more alignment and more of what you want for your life. That’s exactly what my clients achieve when they work with me. They go from “Why am I even here?” to securing roles that give them a £10K to £50K salary increase and finally feel aligned. Because if your role doesn’t reflect who you are or what you care about — it’s not success. It’s just a well-paid version of settling. My 1:1 Coaching Program is for high-achieving women in corporate who are ready to go from job searching to job secured with clarity, confidence and alignment. Over the next 3 months, I’ll help you land a higher-paying, more fulfilling role with a £10K to £50K salary increase. Click the link at the top of my profile to book an enrollment call today.
