Strategic Career Advisory for Women Making High-Stakes Decisions in Unstable Markets

This is not career coaching.
It’s decision support for accomplished women who know staying still is no longer neutral.

You’ve built a strong career. You’re respected. You’re compensated well enough.


But lately, something feels off.

Not dramatic. Not urgent.
Just… misaligned.

You don’t need inspiration.
You need a clear read on the landscape, a grounded strategy, and the confidence to move without second-guessing yourself.

That’s what this work is for.

“I needed clarity around my career transition, and Kristina overdelivered! She’s warm, relatable, and her follow-up roadmap gave me direction immediately.”

What This Actually Is

The VIP Intensive is a private, high-trust advisory engagement designed to help you:

• Make sense of a chaotic hiring market
• Decide what’s worth pursuing and what isn’t
• Position yourself for roles that match your level, not just your resume
• Move forward without rushing or freezing

This is for women who value discernment over reassurance and strategy over noise.

Who This Is (and Isn’t) For

This is for you if:

  • You’re accomplished, not early-career

  • You want decisive movement, not emotional processing

  • You’re ready to stop circling the same questions

  • You want a partner who will tell you the truth calmly

This is not for:

  • “Pick my brain” conversations

  • Endless exploration without execution

  • Being talked into confidence you already have

Before the Intensive

You complete a focused intake and asset review — including a Google Form Alignment Assessment and your CliftonStrengths34 assessment — so we don't waste time getting oriented. Your strengths results and career assets are reviewed before we ever get on a call.

The 90-Minute Strategy Session: We assess your current position, define what makes the most sense next, and make decisions on role direction, compensation targets, and strategy.

You'll leave knowing:

  • What to pursue

  • What to ignore

  • What to do in the next 30 days

Your Custom Alignment Plan (Delivered within 72 hours): A clear 12-week roadmap that translates decisions into action without overwhelm.

12 Weeks of Strategic Follow-Through:

  • Light-touch weekly prompts to keep momentum

  • Private Slack channel access for real questions and curated job leads

  • Two focused check-ins to refine strategy, not rehash emotions

Final Strategy Session (Week 12): We close with a forward-looking conversation focused on interviews, negotiation, or onboarding, depending on where you are in the process.

Professional Brand Refresh (Resume + LinkedIn): Your materials are aligned with the strategy, not the other way around.

What Clients Walk Away With

Not hype. Not hustle. Not vague confidence.

Clients consistently report:

✅ A career narrative that finally makes sense

✅ Clear role criteria they can say yes or no to quickly

✅ Relief from constant second-guessing

✅ A plan that feels realistic and grounded

✅ Stronger interviews and better-aligned opportunities

Results Partnership Promise:

If you complete your plan and haven’t secured at least one interview by the end of our 90-day partnership, I’ll continue supporting you for an additional 30 days at no cost.

Not as a refund.
As a signal of shared accountability.

  • The VIP Intensive is a 3-month deep-dive focused on strategy, setup, and positioning. It's perfect if you need expert guidance to overhaul your materials and build a strong foundation, but you're comfortable executing the search independently after that.

    The Six-Figure Executive Search Package includes the full VIP Intensive PLUS 6 additional months of ongoing support—interview prep, accountability, strategy adjustments, offer negotiation, and first-90-days onboarding guidance. It's ideal if you know this search will take 6-9 months and you want expert support through the entire journey.

  • Your three months start when you book your first call, giving you flexibility to schedule.

  • We shift to salary negotiation and onboarding planning. You still receive the full 3 months of support.

  • Additional months are available at a reduced rate after the initial three months have passed.

  • The VIP Intensive is a results-driven partnership. If you’ve completed your action plan and haven’t secured at least one interview by the end of our 90 days together, I’ll continue supporting you for an additional 30 days at no cost to refine your strategy and follow-through. This isn’t a refund policy — it’s a commitment to partnership and progress.
