Honest fit

Who it's for, and who it isn't

ASCEND is for you if

  • You're making a deliberate, high-stakes career move
  • You want structure, not just a sounding board
  • You'll do the work between sessions
  • You value directness over reassurance

It's probably not for you if

  • You're looking for someone to validate a decision already made
  • You want a recruiter or a résumé service
  • You can't commit to the full six phases
  • You're not ready to hear hard feedback
Custom Pricing Agreed in Advance

Priced to the engagement, not the title

ASCEND is scoped to where you stand and the goals you are trying to reach. Pricing is agreed collaboratively, considering factors such as the seniority of the target role, the complexity of the transition, your timeline, the breadth of deliverables, and the depth of support between sessions.
