The Career Clarity Sprint
For experienced professionals deciding between executive employment, consulting, fractional leadership, or a portfolio career.
"I wasn’t sure I could do this."
I was a CFO at a well-known nonprofit. I didn’t hate my job, but I was done. Burned out. Quietly browsing job boards, knowing I didn’t want another version of the same thing.
Kristi helped me get clear, fast. In just 3 sessions, I went from doubt to a paid consulting engagement with an international nonprofit. I had a signature framework, new language for my LinkedIn, and whispers turning into conversations.
And the best part? I never had to pretend to be someone I wasn’t.
— J., Fractional COO + Consultant
This is probably you.
You’ve been successful, but you’re not interested in blindly climbing toward the next title.
You can do a lot of things, which has somehow made explaining what you should do next harder, not easier.
You’re considering a senior W-2 role, consulting, fractional leadership, a portfolio career, or some combination.
Your resume and LinkedIn tell the story of what you’ve done. They may not yet make the case for where you’re going.
You have relationships, experience, and credibility. You need a smarter way to activate them around the work and life you want now.
THIS IS A DECISION SPRINT.
Not a rebrand. Not a mastermind. Not a six-month coaching commitment.
We use the work you’ve already done, the experience you already have, and the opportunities available to answer three questions:
Where am I actually going?
How should the market understand me?
What moves are most likely to get me there?
What you’ll leave with
A DEFINED NEXT TARGET
The roles, work, compensation, environment, flexibility, and tradeoffs that make sense now.
A STRONGER CAREER STORY
A clear explanation of where you’ve been, why you’re moving, and what you bring next.
CLEAR MARKET POSITIONING
An answer to “What are you looking for?” that helps people help you.
RESUME + LINKEDIN DIRECTION
What should stay, what needs to change, and what your materials need to signal now.
A RELATIONSHIP ACTIVATION PLAN
The former colleagues, recruiters, executives, clients, and communities to activate first.
A PRACTICAL 90-DAY MOVE
Not 37 things. The few moves most likely to create movement.
The goal: clarity strong enough to act on.
THREE PRIVATE SESSIONS
SESSION 1: DIRECTION + DECISION
We look at your experience, options, constraints, compensation goals, and what you want your work and life to look like. We narrow the field.
SESSION 2: POSITIONING + CAREER STORY
We clarify your positioning, career story, and the bridge between what you’ve done and what you’re pursuing now.
SESSION 3: MARKET ACTIVATION + 90-DAY PLAN
We identify the relationships, conversations, visibility moves, and opportunities that deserve your attention first. Then we build the plan.
Includes session recaps, applicable messaging and decision tools, and a focused action plan.

THREE PRIVATE SESSIONS. ONE CLEAR DIRECTION.
Bring your resume, LinkedIn, a few roles or opportunities that have caught your attention, your questions, and your uncertainty.
Do not reinvent yourself before we meet. That’s what the Sprint is for.
You are allowed to want something different. Another executive role. Consulting. Fractional leadership. A portfolio career. Or a combination you had not considered yet.
You do not have to know the answer before you start. You need a place to make the decision well.
The work is specific.
A DEFINED NEXT TARGET
Name the roles, work, scope, compensation, environment, and flexibility that fit this season.
A STRONGER CAREER STORY
Explain where you’ve been, what you bring, and where you are going without sounding scattered, apologetic, or generic.
A PRACTICAL MARKET PLAN
Know which relationships, conversations, visibility moves, and opportunities deserve your attention first.

FROM KRISTI
I work with accomplished people who can usually solve everyone else’s problem and then get surprisingly stuck when the question becomes: “What do I want?”
It makes sense. By this point in your career, there are often several things you could do. The harder question is which one deserves the next several years of your life.
Career Clarity was built for that moment.
We look at the evidence. We separate what you are capable of from what you actually want. We clarify how your experience should be positioned. Then we make some moves.
You may leave deciding to pursue an executive role. You may build a consulting or fractional path. You may discover that the best answer is a combination you had not considered yet.
The goal is not to push you toward entrepreneurship. The goal is clarity strong enough to act on.
GET CLEAR. GET MOVING.
This is your place to make a consequential career decision without forcing yourself into a path you do not actually want.
You do not need a rebrand. You do not need a dramatic announcement. You need a structure that honors where you are and where you are headed.
You are not stuck. You are between clarity and action. Let’s build the bridge.
