What Is Career Coaching?

Career coaching is a professional, transformational partnership that helps you gain clarity, strategy, and confidence in your work and life. More than just advice or job search help, it’s a personalized process that helps you understand what's really driving your dissatisfaction—and how to make meaningful change.

Whether you’re feeling stuck, burned out, ready to pivot, or craving something more aligned, career coaching offers a powerful path forward. My approach integrates psychological insight, identity work, and proven strategies to support high-achieving professionals like you in designing a career—and life—you don’t need to escape from.

Why Do People Work With a Career Coach?

Clients seek career coaching for many reasons, but most are at a crossroads—something no longer feels right, even if things look successful from the outside.

Here are common reasons high-achievers seek coaching:

  • Career Transitions – Shifting industries, roles, or identity after years in one field

  • Burnout or Overfunctioning – Feeling exhausted, emotionally drained, and unclear on how to keep going

  • Career Dissatisfaction – Knowing your job no longer fits, but unsure what does

  • Work-Life Misalignment – Wanting to prioritize well-being, flexibility, and purpose

  • Leadership & Growth – Stepping into a bigger role with greater impact—but needing clarity and confidence

  • Returning to Work – Re-entering the workforce after a break, caregiving, or personal change

  • Launching a Boutique Business – Building a practice, brand, or offering aligned with your values and expertise

How Does Career Coaching Work?

The process begins with a deep exploration of your career story, current challenges, and future vision. From there, we follow a structured, yet deeply personal roadmap—often grounded in my proprietary Career Harmony Framework™.

Here’s what it typically includes, depending on your coaching goals:

  • Clarity + Self-Discovery
    Uncover what’s misaligned and why. We explore your values, identity, drivers of success, and internal career narratives.

  • Strategic Visioning
    Define what real success means now, and what kind of work, roles, or business structures would truly fit you.

  • Action Planning
    We co-create a clear plan to move forward—whether it's finding a new role, shifting how you show up, or building something of your own.

  • Skill Building + Mindset Coaching
    Enhance leadership, communication, boundaries, or decision-making skills. Rewire beliefs that keep you stuck in perfectionism, fear, or survival mode.

  • Ongoing Support & Accountability
    You’ll receive expert guidance, tools, and structure, with space to reflect, stretch, and course-correct as needed.

The Career Coaching Process

This is not a “quick fix.” It’s a journey of realignment—designed to help you feel more like yourself again.

Here’s what our coaching process includes:

  1. Initial Consultation
    A complimentary call to explore your goals, concerns, and whether coaching is the right next step.

  2. Comprehensive Assessment
    You’ll complete reflective assessments that explore your strengths, identity, values, inner drivers, and current pain points.

  3. Goal Mapping
    Together, we’ll define your top priorities, desired outcomes, and a path that honors both strategy and self.

  4. Coaching Sessions
    Private, 1:1 sessions (virtual or in person) focused on clarity, implementation, and transformation.

  5. Support Between Sessions
    You’ll have access to curated tools, resources, prompts, and occasional feedback between sessions.

  6. Evaluation + Realignment
    We track progress, adjust strategy, and reflect on your growth, celebrating breakthroughs along the way.

  7. Next Chapter Planning
    As you gain clarity and momentum, we’ll map what comes next: from negotiations to transitions to long-term sustainability.

The Career Harmony Coaching Framework™

The Career Harmony Framework™ is a systematic 7-stage process for transforming burnout and career distress into sustainable success that aligns with your authentic self.

The 7-Stage Transformation Process

Stage 1: The Awakening
Recognizing that your discontent, distress and overwhelm.

Stage 2: The Reality Check
Honestly assessing the true costs—physical, emotional, relational, and opportunity costs—of maintaining your current patterns.

Stage 3: The Excavation
Understanding how childhood survival strategies became professional prisons, identifying your specific "High Achiever Inner Type" pattern.

Stage 4: The Reconnection
Rediscovering your authentic self beneath the performance—your true values, what brings you joy, and what genuinely energizes you.

Stage 5: The Rewrite & Redesign
Creating your own definition of success that includes both achievement and wellbeing, designing work that serves rather than consumes you.

Stage 6: Taking Action
Making meaningful changes within your real constraints—from micro-shifts to strategic pivots—without burning your life down.

Stage 7: The Sustaining
Developing systems to maintain transformation in a world that rewards Career Distress, preventing pattern relapse.

Key Differentiators

  • Not about escaping work but transforming your relationship with it

  • Works within real constraints (financial obligations, family responsibilities, visa requirements)

  • Addresses root causes not just symptoms

  • Cyclical, not linear—you revisit stages as you grow

  • Evidence-based combining clinical psychology, nervous system science, and practical career strategy

The Outcome

Career Harmony: Work that energizes rather than depletes, expresses rather than suppresses your authentic self, and creates sustainable success without sacrificing your humanity.

This framework has been developed through Dr. Pérez-Litwin's 25 years of clinical practice with high-achieving professionals and her own journey from severe Career Distress to sustainable success.
