I Help You Accelerate Progress To Make Meaningful Transitions In Business & Life

Do you wake up feeling like:
-You’re successful on paper but something is missing?
-You’re letting fear and self-doubt keep you from taking action?
-You’re tired of feeling like you’re doing everything right, but still nothing is working?

Imagine waking up knowing change was possible. 

What would it feel like to eliminate friction between you and your next step?

To have the right toolbox filled with the right tools to become the doer of your own life.

To transition into building a future instead of going through the motions?

Maybe you want to start a side-hustle but don’t know where to find the time.

Or you want to leave your corporate life behind and start a small business, but don’t know where to start.

Or maybe you’ve started making a transition, but you’re stuck. You know what you should be doing, but you’re not actually doing it. 

If any of this sounds like you, I’m here to help. 

𝗧𝗼 𝗯𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗯𝗲𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗯𝗿𝗶𝗱𝗴𝗲𝘀 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝘁𝗼 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗮𝗳𝘁𝗲𝗿.

I’m not here to sell you perfection or be your magic wand. 
I’m here to help you build an unshakeable foundation and open your eyes to possibility.

Which is what I built for myself after taking my own leap. 
Leaving a stable, corporate environment after 15 years. 

And now I know it’s my mission to help other people do the same. 

To make the first part of your journey easier. 
Doing it alone is possible. Doing it with support makes it a whole lot better.

If you’re interested to learn how I can help you, DM me ‘transition’ or send a note and say hi:  xenia@thepursuitofprogress.ca

We are better together!
