Why you must ‘match your internal to your external’
I promised you the inside scoop and I am delivering!
A few weeks ago, I shared how I was starting to up-level my business before I was ready - this was a fun ‘building in public’ update if you missed it.
(I also made you a gift - keep reading or scroll below for it!)
Now, over the next several weeks, I'm going to show you how I'm using the same tools I use with clients to guide my business growth and how you can apply them to your career.
Let’s start with:
What are the core tenants of my work?
Having coached almost 100 high-achieving millennial women over the past several years, I fully believe:
“Your internal has to match your external” to be successful.
Meaning, your inner mindset, energy and wellbeing has to be as confident and polished as your external assets (career narrative, resume, brand) to get the job you want.
I’ve focused mostly on the external with my clients using a well-honed framework that helps them get clear on their operating principles, strengths and putting those together to identify their purpose and then start taking action.
We work on confidence building, tapping into intuition and improving beliefs as it comes up (I even created a group program, CalmOS, focused mostly on this).
Yet, time and time again, I've seen how feeling calm, grounded and fueled walking into an interview; proud of and secure in their capabilities and unique perspectives; and the deep knowing of “I can do this” propels clients from the phone screen to the final offer.
I want you to feel the same!
So I'm formalizing my focus on the internal and making it an integral part of my approach.
Moving forward, my coaching and content will be focused on:
>> Equipping You with the Mindset, Strategies and Tools to Identify and Create the Career You Want <<
This is a mouthful, tbh, and you might be wondering what this actually means for your career exploration.
So, to bring this to life, I've crystallized the exact mindset, strategies and tools you need to get the job you want (and to thrive once in it!) into “The Guide to Aligned Ambition: Seven Proven Strategies to Create a Career You Love While Building the Life You Want.”
As a bonus, you'll get to see how our main character Nina (NYU Stern MBA, BCG Project Leader, women's health champion) puts these strategies into action.

I had a lot of fun writing this (and am proud of it!) and hope you have just as much fun reading it.
The part I’m most excited about?

[Tools] And lastly, feeling confident and authentic in how you talk about your purpose and career journey will continuously create new opportunities.
Investing in these pieces now will pay dividends over the course of your career.
