Leadership Coaching That Puts Your Career and Growth First
Are you ready to grow as a leader, feel proud of your work, and live fearlessly? I started Live for Yourself Consulting with the sole purpose of guiding leaders to create a career they love.
We help values and impact driven leaders create a job they love and have confidence in their career path and themselves. It’s time you invested in yourself, learned the secrets of navigating your career as a leader, and make the job you want happen.
Live for Yourself (LFY) Consulting, based in Chicago, IL, and Austin, TX, offers leadership coaching, executive coaching, and career coaching services for values-driven senior leaders that know there is more to life than work, and feel stuck in their professional development or unfulfilled at work. Our clients tend to be high potential and impact driven leaders that lack clarity, confidence, and control over their career. They are unsure about next steps in terms of their work, doubt their executive presence, and despite professional success do not feel successful.
In short we work with senior leaders to develop your professional brand, leadership story, and executive presence; get clear on the work you were meant to do and create greater career clarity; grow that into a meaningful career either in an organization or out on your own – we make the job you want happen.
