Queen of the Pivot 👑 I help people leverage their expertise to change to a new industry. Follow me for tips and ideas. DM me your questions!

The rules of work have changed. The linear career path is dead.

Whether you're an experienced executive feeling stuck in a "perfectly good job" or facing an unexpected transition, one thing is clear: you're craving something more meaningful than what you've been doing.

You've done everything right: 
• Climbed the corporate ladder 
• Built expertise others recognize 
• Achieved financial success

But now you're facing new realities: 
• Industry disruption and uncertainty 
• Concerns about ageism and relevance
• A growing desire for work that truly fulfills you

The problem? You're looking at 5-10 more years of traditional work, but the thought of spending that time in your current situation feels like serving a sentence. You don't know how to leverage your hard-earned experience to create your next chapter—whether that's a new industry, consulting, or something entirely different.

What if those final working years could be your most fulfilling? What if instead of counting down to retirement, you were energized by work that doesn't feel like work?

I've been there. I've successfully pivoted across multiple industries:  Teaching → Publishing → Mortgage → Entertainment → Entrepreneurship → Education

Each transition taught me that confidence is the key to a successful pivot—and confidence comes from having a clear strategy.

My mission: Help accomplished executives like you stop feeling stuck and start taking control of your professional future. No matter what changes are happening around you, you have more power than you realize.

Assistant Resident Director

I'm an educator and guide at heart. My mission has always been to uplift through designing learning experiences that uplift those in need. What's that mean? 

Be Gallant Coaching! 

As a certified career coach, learning experience designer, and former hiring manager, I help educators, students, and professionals develop the knowledge and skills they need to navigate the job search (because it's a circus these days) and transition into the right jobs for them so that they feel more engagement, control, and impactful in life and at work.

If you're like me, you want to be happy in your professional life. You want to feel valued. You want to feel excited about the impact you're going to have. But you may not know how to land the job that makes you feel those things. Instead, you might be feeling the opposite: burned out, taken advantage of, and straight up bored.

Well, let me tell you it's possible to break through that and into a professional life that makes you excited to answer when someone asks you, "So, what do you do?"

If you're ready for that, let's chat. Come take a look into my world to learn more about what I do and how I do it!  You can sign up for a free consultation on my website at www.begallantcoaching.com
