Ready to be you when you grow up?

Below is how to work directly with me through one-on-one coaching. If you're a UX Designer looking for group coaching (like UX Portfolio PowerPlay) or community events, check out UX Hustle!

Careers can be disorienting

  • Positioning yourself for a promotion or a new job elsewhere
  • Wanting to change careers but don't know how or where to start
  • Integrating a new method (like OOUX or Research-focus) into your UX toolbelt and title
  • Desiring more time and energy freedom inside and outside of work — no more burnout

And every LinkedIn post and Medium article claims to have the answers

Leading to...

Overwhelm

Self-doubt

Paralysis

What if we could tap into YOUR answers?

  • Based on your experience, your strengths, and where you want to go
  • Knowing that your journey is unique to you
  • Using tried-and-true coaching techniques that go beyond "strategy"

Remember the last time you explored your career?

Hours of journaling

Hours of courses

Hours of talking to people

Constant self-doubt

Questioning every change and pivot


Let's do it differently

Have a roadmap with clear goals based on YOUR unique strengths and desires

With opportunity for changes and pivots as you evolve and change

That will help you build momentum, confidence, and clarity in where you want your career to go — through REAL EXPERIENCE

Clarity

Confidence

Momentum

3x3 Method

3 coaching calls each month for 3 months focusing on 3 steps:

Evaluate

Tells use where we are, how we got here, and where we want to go.

Evaluation also gives us the opportunity to re-evaluate decisions later on.

Embody

The most frequently skipped step when making big changes on your own. Before taking action, it's important to embody what the next steps will look like, what your goal is, and who you'll be in the process.

Evoke

And Action! This is where we let everyone know who you are and what you're doing.

Taking action helps us feel what it's like to pursue our goals and work through any resistance.

Hear me speak

I truly believe that User Experience (UX) Design can change the world -- Both on a personal and entrepreneurial level. I love sharing takeaways and transformations to audiences through captivating stories, lessons, and tools.

If you're looking for a speaker to give your audience tangible actions, I'd love to connect and see if I'm a good fit!

Keynote

Design Your Career

How many of us spend our careers focusing on the wrong things? We crush our to-do lists and brag about how busy we are, but neglect the one thing that really matters -- our careers. In this talk, I provide the tools I use to figure out where you want to go and the actions to get there. And, most importantly, have fun along the way!

Key Takeaways

  • Without intention, you'll be running around in circles instead of achieving your goal.
  • Find opportunities in your daily life to work on your goals and incorporate new, stretch activities
  • Look to your past to find clues for where you want to go

Feeling stuck & don't know what to do?

Whenever you go whitewater rafting, they warn you about getting stuck under the boat if you fall. You know what they say?

Pick a direction and go.

Because our instinct is to go a little bit in one direction, change our mind, and go in a different direction.

Many of us do that in our careers as well.

You know how to take action; What you need is direction

Your career isn't a destination; it's a journey

And every journey needs a map! Full of milestones, obstacles, and rewards.

Your problem isn't doing what you set out to do; you got that covered.

The problem is knowing what the first step is and seeing it align to a bigger picture.

What if you had a 90-day roadmap to not just discover a career path — but YOUR unique career path?


What if you could test and explore that career path with limited risk and maximum fun?


What if when you're ready to leap into the next phase of your career, you're prepared and confident?

I had a fabulous UX coaching session with Amanda. She asked me all great questions that made me realize how many areas I can explore in my UX career. She helped me uncovered my problems, set up milestones and she gave me actionable tips. Additionally to this, Amanda is a super kind person, full of energy and really a passionate UX coach. If you’re lost with your UX career, I would strongly recommend having a session with Amanda 😊

UX Designer & Mentor

Right now, you're wondering

"What the heck do I want to do with my career?"



"How could I leverage my current position to propel me to where I want to be?"



"What are the possible careers I haven't even thought about that would be PERFECT for me?"

Imagine if, you had a customized career roadmap that

Empowered you to take action and stay curious



Was adaptable so you can make pivots without "messing up the plan"



Gave you the power back in your career destiny

1-on-1 Career Coaching

Hi! I'm Amanda and I've been helping UXers & tech professionals with their careers since 2019

When I decided to quit my job and change careers in 2017, I went through all the stages of: what the heck do I want to do, how the heck am I going to do it, and ok, I'm doing it and now what?

I learned that my career path is unique to me and once I released expectations of doing it the "right" way, I was free to explore, get curious, and take serious action.

Now that I've pivoted again to career coaching, I can assure you that your path won't look like mine. And that's a great thing! Through my coaching practice and 3x3 Method, we'll uncover your career journey and get you making moves with confidence!

1-on-1 Career Coaching

And so I help you:

  • Get clear on your career goals using your unique strengths and experiences
  • Embody the new position, role, or career you're getting after
  • Take aligned action to be the version of you that will land you that job, promotion, or new career

What Others are Saying

Michelle Morgan

As a team leader, there are a whole host of things to manage within projects and teams and how your team relates to the rest of the organization and your clients before you even get started on the idea of self-management and career management.  But you can’t let it go because this is a crucial time - you have fewer peers and often don’t really get feedback that you need.  The issues can get cloudy really quickly and make you want to just ignore it.  THIS IS WHY YOU NEED A COACH!  It’s an investment in your self and a way to dedicate time to the work on your own mindset, blockers, and goals.

Amanda has been a great coach for me because she is committed to the big picture and helps me stay on track.  She uses a simple process of helping me resolve the small issues that block me from feeling like I can tackle the larger stuff.  It’s improved my confidence as a manager because I have an outside sounding board.  It’s given me support and validation around my personal goals that might not directly align with my office or my boss.  And she keeps track of things that it’s easy for me to forget - like the fact that I’m on a journey and this is just one part of the whole experience.  On top of all of that, she’s kind and truly funny. . . so that makes the hard things a bit easier.

Amanda works through various modalities depending on what you’re going through. Whether you’re working though a creative block, self confidence and imposter syndrome, or refocusing your career goals to align with human needs and wants, Amanda can help.

When I came to Amanda for 1:1 coaching, I was in a job that wasn’t fulfilling. I was also struggling with whether or not entrepreneurship was for me and if so— what would I do? The workshop type sessions I had with Amanda helped me to articulate some viable interests for a side hustle, while also helping me reinvent my role at my current job. Through her gentle but enthusiastic encouragement, I overcame my short term goals.

I recommend Amanda to everyone who really wants to be happier in their jobs, careers, and side hustles. I have so many Amanda gems (delicious quotes) scribbled in stickies on my desk, monitor, bathroom mirror…
