Discover The Work Path That's Uniquely Yours
-
"I am excavating and clarifying parts of my past and present self, my values, my needs and desires, in a way that previous career / self explorations have not yielded"
A step-by-step process to help you authentically navigate a career crossroads and chart a next life chapter that you love
You've made some great progress in your career, but that sense of fulfillment you expected hasn't materialized or has faded.
You know that you want more aliveness in your work. You want to feel like your unique gifts are actually being valued.
Changing things up doesn’t have to be scary. With structure and a trusted guide you can bring some sense to this ambiguous process.
Stop wasting time and energy and use my tried and tested method from coaching over 3K sessions to start getting results and actually enjoy your work.
-
"The consistent tone of openness, curiosity, and non-judgment that you provide as the guide leaves my nervous system feeling softened."
Get shockingly clear about what you’re meant to do next
Unlike generic career advice that tells you to "follow your passion" without showing you how, Coherence gives you clear steps and practical tools to navigate the ambiguity of work transitions with confidence.
Through my proven framework developed from over 2,000 coaching sessions, you will:
Develop your personal Inner Compass that aligns your work with what truly matters to you
Identify and articulate your unique strengths in a way that builds confidence and clarity
Break down overwhelming decisions into manageable steps you can actually implement
Create an empowering narrative about your professional journey (even if it feels scattered now)
Design a compelling vision for your future with concrete 30-day action steps
Receive the validation and perspective you need from someone who's been exactly where you are
Transform career uncertainty into focused action.
What’s inside
The Coherence Framework includes nine steps to bring you from hazy to clear.
Here’s a sneak peek:
CREATE YOUR INNER COMPASS →
Clarify your foundation to ensure you’re designing your next career and life chapter in total alignment with what you care about.
← KNOW YOUR STRENGTHS
You’ll create a coherent, empowering narrative that makes a clear case for how you’re ready to actualize your next chapter
EXPAND INTO WHAT’S POSSIBLE →
You’ll create a compelling vision for your future accompanied by a set of worthy goals and a 30 day action plan
Feeling stuck is my least favorite thing
Right now, you might be:
Feeling like your most beloved skills are withering away from lack of use
Watching your creative spark dim as you continue to expend energy on work that dulls you inside
Entertaining too many ideas without the conviction that any of them are worth pursuing
Looking at new job listings in your field with a sense of dread rather than excitement
If any of these resonate, I know how frustrating and energy draining this can be.
This just might
change your life

I’m Melissa.
I didn’t always love my job.
I was a late career bloomer. I spent over a decade trying to figure out what was MY thing. I didn’t feel confident that I was applying my most unique and precious gifts in a way that made sense. So I feel you!
Now I’m the proud founder of Coherence Studio, a life design coaching platform for independent creatives who want to design custom work they love.
I am telling you everything that I’ve gathered from over 2,000 coaching calls and distilled into highly intentional exercises that I’ll guide you through step-by-step so there is no way you can finish this program and not know what to do next.
This is
for you if:
-
It can be painful to know that you are not reaching your potential and that you are ultimately holding yourself back because you’re scared. I have definitely been there and so have most of my coaching clients. Trying out a self-starting path holds more ambiguity than a corporate job. It takes guts!
The good news is that you don’t have to feel this way forever. It’s 1000% possible to start feeling better about the work you are doing. It will just take a little intentional time up front to get clear on what you want to offer and how to start. That’s what this course is designed to help you do!
-
I truly believe that everyone has a special combination of skills, personal strengths, and values that is wonderfully unique. When I see my coaching clients get clearer about how to apply their aptitudes to what they care about, it’s like a magic click that gives them relief and a grounded clarity on how to spend their time and what to do next.
It’s hard to see our own special mix of gifts when we are so close to ourselves. The exercises in this course are designed to help you see yourself with fresh eyes so you can locate your power and understand how to wield it.
-
How we tell our career or work story is SO influential to how we feel about it. Two people could have the same set of experiences but one person tells the story apologizing about how little they’ve done and the other person finds ways to confidently highlight their accomplishments.
Let’s make sure that you are telling the version of the story that supports you to attract new opportunities and makes you feel happy about all that you’ve done. By the end of this course you will have a refreshed career story that will be a springboard to do your own thing.
-
You know that you are holding yourself back from a more expressed and expansive life. You want more. And that is truly great.
Just because you haven’t found work that lights you up yet doesn’t mean you never will. Once you find the right fit, you are quickly going to notice that you feel more motivated and downright pumped to wake up and ‘go to work’ in the morning.
Program FAQ
-
No need to stress about time. You can complete the lessons at your pace and fit them into your busy schedule. You get one year of access so you have plenty of time to return to lessons and rewatch them.
-
This is for anyone who wants to better understand their own unique skill set and professional power. While it was designed to help you consider how you would start experimenting with creating your own income streams and even start your own business, you don’t have to be certain that the self-employed path is one you want to go on.
You also don’t have to be a ‘Creative' to take this course. The exercises will work for anyone who has at least a couple years of work history under their belt.
-
For the self-paced option: It is totally up to you! You may be someone who learns best in small chunks or someone who prefers a few deep dives. Set your pace according to what actually works for your life.
It’s 9 modules long and each one has several lessons so it could take you less than a week to do if you were sprinting, or it could stretch out over a few months if you’d like to let things marinate in between lessons.
For the hybrid option: we will ideally schedule one initial call before you dive in, one call after section #1, one call after section #2, and then a final wrap up call.
-
You have access for 1 year from your purchase date. So if you join now, that’s 365 days to work through it. Ample time!
-
This program is made up of exercises that I do with my 1:1 clients. The main difference is that you get them all at once and you move through them at different speeds. You won’t have a dedicated 1:1 coaching call to digest things 100% focused on you but you can lean into your own reflective powers and always share your experience with close people in your world. And if you sign up for the cohort model you will have a group of peers to share and cross-learn with.
