Hi there!
I’m a former in-house coach at PayPal and other companies, and through my business I I’ve worked with tons of professionals in a similar position as you, with success.

I would love to help you.
Here’s a link to my website and I have a cyber week special right now that you can take advantage of. 🙂

Are you sure you need a coach or is it something you could teach yourself on YouTube, etc? I feel like a lot of career consulting is a money grab, and while it may be helpful sometimes, it's often not worth the cost. Could be a pessimistic take from me though because I way overpaid for a career consultant last year lol. Just be cautious is all I'm saying

Oooof! I’m sorry you had a negative experience. I am curious, where did you find the person you worked with? Are there some people that may not deliver on expected results out there? Yes. But there are coaches and consultants out there that are results driven.

I do want to point out though that consulting and coaching are two very different things.

Consultants provide (expert) advise and solutions, meaning they tell you the how and help you implement.

Coaches help you find your OWN solutions based on your strengths, interests, resources etc., and support you as an accountability buddy with execution.

The internet has TONS of information available, this is true, and the OP can go that route, but the odds of finding information that is tailored to them specifically are slim.

P.S. Your feelings are valid btw, they are informed by your experience. My response isn’t meant to debate where you stand but to offer some perspective. I hope you don’t shy away from getting help if/when you need it again in the future. 🙌🏾
