*Squeals in excitement for this episode*



What do a bike breaking down in the Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina, Covid travel restrictions, Dubai, and a long-distance love have in common?



Asking for what you want.



Job opportunities are there if you know how and when to ask for what you want.



Today, I break down how to do this and share personal stories where opportunities showed up simply because I dared to ask.



Don't know HOW to ask? I got you. Settle into this epsiode where I break it down for you.



Enjoy!

Connect with Paul on ⁠⁠⁠his website⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.

-----------------------------------------

From web designer to cafe owner, to stay at home dad, and now coach for creatives & non-birthing parents, Paul has a wealth of knowledge about making a career pivot.



Over the past year I had the pleasure of coaching Paul through the start of his coaching business - and the more I got to know him, the more I knew his story needed to be on the podcast.



If you are curious how 30,000 pounds in tax debt to the English government turned out to be a success - listen along.



I can't wait to hear your thoughts.

It is no secret that I love me a Tortured Poet. The other day I read something about the Taylor Swift Effect and it got me thinking:



What is the Maartje Bakker Effect?



I got an instant 'ick' and have been through enough coaching to identify that feeling as an opportunity for growth.



"Interesting", I thought. I feel discomfort thinking about my own brilliance. So I had two choices: shy away from this uncomfortable feeling and stay small or lean into it and learn.



Guess which option I chose. In today's episode, I help you discover your own "effect" and show you how to get comfortable with sharing your brilliance with others.



This is how you land jobs, get promoted, receive a pay raise, and get paying clients.



Enjoy, my love. Go get em.

Connect with Renate on ⁠⁠⁠LinkedIn⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.

-----------------------------------------

Renate was finishing up her degree and didn't know where to go next in her career. She had dreams of entrepreneurship, travel, and fulfilling work - but it felt scary to go after them.



Our coaching brought her clarity on where to go next, the courage and strategy to make it happen, and a new level of intimacy with her own beliefs.



Her bravery in showing up for her own dreams in more than inspiring.



Enjoy this episode with Renate!

If you've never worked with a career coach - this is your episode.



You might feel inspired to explore career coaching, but are doubtful of how it would work and if it could actually help you find a fulfilling career.



This week I am sharing what to expect when you start working with a career coach. Enjoy!

🎉 My coaching program just became even more accessible!



After 450+ hours of coaching women through career changes, dozens of businesses started, promotions made, and jobs landed...



It still breaks my heart when you say you feel dreadful, exhausted, bored, and defeated at work.



I've been there.



And when I was burnt out with no idea what kind of career would bring me joy,



I didn't have a career coach when I needed it the most.



It is a privilege to have support through hard times.



I want to be a part of breaking that cycle.



I want career coaching to be even more accessible to you - because I know what we can create in as little as 6 months is life-changing.



We need more women with healthy, happy jobs.

Who speak their minds with confidence.

Who earn good money.

Who ask for help.



My coaching program remains the same: trusted, tested, and tailored to you.



New is the tiered option to pick the support you want and need.



If you're ready to make a lasting career change for your happiness and health - book a call.



I can't wait to support you.
