CAREER COACHING JOURNEY: Discover your next professional step
Would you like clarity on the next step in your career, one that truly aligns with who you are and your talents?
Everything you want in your professional life is to have challenging work that brings satisfaction and enjoyment.
But instead, you find yourself bored and restless. It’s wearing you out.
You keep overthinking about the available options to you.
And then there’s that little voice in your head questioning whether you should even take a step at all, because you know what you have now, that feeling of security is comforting.
Do you recognize this?
- You find no fulfilment in your work and keep asking yourself, IS THIS IT?
- You browse job sites aimlessly, resulting in becoming more restless;
- You try everything to gain clarity, but it just isn’t working;
- Your own limiting thoughts prevent that you can make a CHOICE;
- You ignore your heart and rationalise everything.
If you’re experiencing this, it’s time to take action, or you’ll soon run out of energy, feel a constant restlessness in your body, and in the worst case, end up with a boreout!
How would it be for you if..
- Your new direction provides enough challenge and opportunities for your personal growth;
- The restlessness has left your body, you're clear on the steps you want to take, and you have the confidence to make choices that bring out in the best in you;
- Your heart's desires have become clear, allowing you to identify your next move;
- You know what to do when old patterns and thoughts hinder you in your decision-making;
- You go to work full of energy. You're excited!
When I was in this situation myself, I felt foolish because, as a career expert, I couldn’t figure it out.
But it’s not so surprising since you can’t see your own blind spots or recognise patterns. You don’t know what you don’t know!
What does it take?
- Enhancing self-awareness, uncovering blind spots and understanding your motivations;
- Learning to listen to your body, shifting from rationalising to feeling;
- Knowledge of the job market.
With the Career Coaching Journey ‘Discover Your Next Career Step,’ your career will regain focus. By the end of the programme, you will have clarity on what you want in your career, along with a clear action plan.
This will enable you to take targeted steps towards job applications (internal or external) or starting a business (if applicable).
How does the Career Coaching Journey look like?
Think of it as a ‘career journey’ where we’ll navigate a route that gradually enhances your self-awareness, step by step. This is done in a structured way, helping you maintain an overview.
The first exit in your career journey is gaining insight into your strengths, values, and the main themes in your life. We achieve this through exercises and assessments. Once you understand what motivates you and what you want to achieve, you can consciously steer your career in a direction that suits you, making it easier to make choices that align with your desired future.
Together, we’ll uncover your blind spots and the patterns that influence your behaviour. With this insight, you’ll find that after each session, it becomes more clear what your destination is and where your body is shouting, “This is what I want!!”.
“Felicia is an engaged, experienced, and driven Career Coach.
I started a career coaching journey with her because I had no idea what my next career step should be.
She works with DISC assessment, which provided me with valuable insights. Her extensive experience really shows during the sessions. I now have a much clearer sense of the direction I want to pursue.
While attending the sessions, I was also applying for jobs, and this was incredibly helpful as I was able to clearly articulate my values, talents, and motivations.
She holds her sessions in a wonderful location in Haarlem. I highly recommend her!”
You want this too, don't you?
- To go to work with satisfaction, joy, and full of energy again;
- To have clarity in making choices that truly make you happy;
- To stop postponing and make decisions you can fully stand behind;
- To regain calmness and focus in your career plan;
- To be challenged and know how to keep developing yourself.
“Felicia is a very pleasant coach who knows how to find the right balance between focusing on me as a person and my career development journey. She provides enough space for me to discover the meaning of the various steps in my development process on my own, and by asking the right questions, I was also able to articulate this. This made me truly internalize the outcomes and made it very clear what I needed to do.
Thanks to Felicia’s expertise, it became very clear what my dream job should look like. I could even take steps to find it during the coaching process!”
How do we work together?
- Each coaching session has a preparation and elaboration assignment.

About me
My passion for helping people advance in their careers has developed over 20 years of experience in Talent Development at an American multinational.
The women who come to me are often eager to learn and want the shortest route to see results. Efficiency and clarity are important in this process. I build structure into my programs to achieve targeted results, creating order and focus.
My core values are thoroughness, helpfulness, and discipline. “Only the best,” was my grandmother’s saying, and I live by it as well. This means choosing 𝗾𝘂𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗶𝗻 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗱𝗼. Never agree to less, and go for the best 𝗰𝗮𝗿𝗲𝗲𝗿 𝗼𝗽𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁𝘂𝗻𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗲𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗮𝗹𝗶𝗴𝗻 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝘄𝗵𝗼 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝘂𝗻𝗶𝗾𝘂𝗲 𝘁𝗮𝗹𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀.
I gained my work experience primarily in a technical and corporate environment where advancing is not always easy for women. There, I learned to be strong in a modest and loving way, which has led to a successful career for me.
I have also mentored talented women and have been actively involved for years in helping women advance to leadership positions. I would love to help you!
