Hey there, Midlife Career Changer!
Changing careers is hard — at any age — but you didn’t get where you are by being timid. You’re not afraid of doing the hard work, and you’re brave enough to take chances. And maybe this sounds familiar:
- You ache to do something different, but you’re afraid to make a move that might jeopardize your salary, vacation time, and 401k…
- You vigilantly stalk LinkedIn for new openings, meanwhile your resume’s getting stale and the booming job market is passing you by…
- You avoid calls from your mom because she can’t imagine a job that’s better than the golden-handcuffs position you’re in now (“but, mom” you whimper) …
You’re so ready to transition to a different field or industry, but you don’t know where to start.
You want to be rewarded and recognized for your independence, innovation, and badass work ethic NOW — you’re tired of paying your dues and waiting.
You daydream about:
Instead of:
All while, managing a 9-to-5 (and then some) filled with a cranky boss, backbiting co-workers, and demanding clients...
Katrina Re-packaged Her Experience to Fit a New Market
“I was stuck on one choice - stay at my good job (that was draining the life out of me) or find a new job. But Amber opened my eyes to multiple career possibilities ranging from my dream job in vegan cooking to tweaking my expertise to fit a new market. Knowing that I have so many options and can use my experience in so many ways is such a relief.”
- Katrina B., IT Project Manager, Fortune 10 Company
Career Change is NOT the Same as Job Search
There's no ‘copy and paste’ career advice here. Because career change is NOT the same as job search.
Your career path is UNIQUE and the tools you need to succeed are too.
Duct-taping how-to advice and YouTube tutorials together isn’t going to get you where you want to be.
To land the most coveted jobs on (and off) the market, you need to promote your skills with authority and authenticity.
- The EXACT words to use on their LinkedIn profile and resume to get the attention of top recruiters...
- How to talk-up their expertise and navigate holes in their experience to squash the doubts of the HR cynics...
- How to translate their skills to another field or industry to land a job they’re not quite qualified for...
- My winning interview technique to secure a juicy job offer with a five-figure raise and more work-from-home flexibility...
- Accept an offer that not only comes with a hefty raise, but the ability to set your own hours because your new boss cares about results, not time cards...
- Work with high-energy co-workers, who stop at nothing to make your work shine just as much as theirs...
- Bask in your new-job-glow, knowing the next five years will be filled with unbelievable growth potential...
- Hob-nob with professional heroes backstage before you present the keynote at your industry’s biggest conference...
I’ve helped women from a variety of fields (e.g. marketing, healthcare, education, and consulting)...
- boost their salaries,
- secure more freedom, and
- end the career change overwhelm.

Who am I? I’m so glad you asked!
A Midlife Career Coach for Women Who Want to Switch Careers Without Starting Over or Taking a Pay Cut
For nearly 15 years, as an I-O psychologist in HR, I’ve worked with executives to design and implement corporate programs to motivate employees to do their best work, build productive and happy teams, and develop the next generation of transformational leaders.
Now I’m flipping the script and sharing those secrets with you!
I’ll teach you how to bedazzle your LinkedIn profile and resume, polish your interview skills, and land the job you thought you weren’t qualified for.
Christine Discovered the Perfect Fit
“Working with Amber felt like working with a trusted friend. Her HR knowledge helped me see the bigger picture and how my skills were a solid match for my next job, even down to the keywords I should use in my resume and LinkedIn profile.”
- Christine H., Executive Assistant at Big Four Accounting Firm
When I’m not helping inspiring women change their lives and careers, you can find me…
- Scanning Amazon for the next Melissa & Doug bauble to send to my niece and nephew. Cheeky sound machines and musical instruments are my go-to’s. 😊
- Unpacking my sunscreen, fav spy thrillers, and giant beach towel on the sandy shores of Virginia Beach. Or chillin’ on my patio with a glass of rose, hatching a plan to learn French, so I can live out my vision board dream of summering in Provence.
- Drinking margaritas at my favorite taco shop. 🌮
- Raving about assigned seats at the movies, because I can show up 20 minutes after show-time, miss ALL the trailers, and fully recline in my red-leather seat with my over-priced popcorn!
- Plopping down a deposit on an online course, mastermind, or coaching program to up-level my skills and business. Continual learning is pivotal to my well-being (and my wallet!).
You’ve earned the right to pursue a career that lights you up! (especially, if you’ve been in the same field for years, held hostage by an ogre-like boss, or driven to madness by the mind-numbing tasks landing on your desk daily.)
I’m a no-nonsense kinda coach. Offering big-girl advice, no straight-out-of-college stuff here, because you have a life, a mortgage, and a human- or fur-baby!
Your experience is RICH.
You can transition with the knowledge you have RIGHT NOW. Not someday!
My goal is to show type-A overachievers, like you, exactly how to cash-in on your years of experience and expertise to launch a career in a new field.
You don’t have to waste another minute thinking “I’m too old to switch careers.” Or “I’ve worked here for years, now what?”
Let me show you how to translate your superpowers into marketable skills you can use to get a $10,000, $15,000, $20,000 raise or promotion. Score “Summer Fridays” year-round. And finally reach the height of your professional potential.
Your biggest cheerleader and coach!

Mary Went from Stifled by Corporate to Freelancing from Costa Rica
"I was at crossroads when I started working with Amber - not sure if I wanted to continue as graphic designer in NYC or go freelance. Despite having a creative job, I felt stifled and complacent. Working with Amber was exactly what I needed to move forward. That boost of confidence gave me the push I needed to start freelancing from sunny Costa Rica. And it's been so fulfilling!”
