What We Cover in Compass Within
Career Transition Coaching
Â
Your career matters, but it’s not the whole story. When people let work become their entire identity, they become resentful and burned out.
Â
Compass Within helps you see work in the bigger context of your life:
Your Strengths, your values, your energy, and the people that matter most.
Â
Let's focus on building a career that fits around the the things you love, rather than letting your career take over everything, okay?

The streamlined core. This program covers the four most impactful tools for aligning your work with who you are.
Talk to Yourself Productively
How does your inner voice talk to you? Is it helping you or holding you back?
-  Use a strengths-focused framework to make intentional choices about your time and energy.
-  Be kinder to yourself in tough moments instead of tearing yourself down.
Maximize Your Power and Potential
What are your greatest Strengths? When do Strengths turn into weaknesses?
- Â Spot when a Strength is fueling your success and keeping you in your best zone.
-  Notice when you’re overdoing it and causing problems for yourself and others.
Plant Yourself in the Right Soil
What's the right work environment? What brings you joy and energy to do at work each day?
- Â Recognize the people, places, and projects that bring out your best and the ones that drain you.
-  Invest your energy where it pays off instead of on things that suck the life out of you.
Nail the Interview
How do you talk about yourself professionally? How do you answer hard or weird questions?
- Â Learn a framework for telling memorable stories that highlight your Strengths in action.
-  Practice reframing “weakness” questions into signs of growth and adaptability.

"When I started Compass Within, I was burnt out and unsure of what I wanted to do next. With Ariela’s compassionate and intentional guidance in the program, I got to know myself better. Now I feel reset, confident, and equipped to pursue opportunities that are truly a good fit for me, not just things that I think 'should' work! "

"So many of us are re-evaluating work and what it means to us. Compass Within led me down a path of deep discovery both personally and professionally, through the use of videos, handouts, reflection tools, and one-on-one coaching sessions which were insightful in guiding my career change.
As both the developer of Compass Within and an experienced CliftonStrengths Coach, Dr. Freedman is well-equipped to guide professionals who are feeling “stuck” in the workplace. I am grateful for the Compass Within program for helping me gain clarity about my next professional adventure!"
