Hi all! I'm doing market research for an offering and looking for a 5-7 women who would be open to sharing their insights. In return, I would gift a 30-minute career strategy session. No pitch, I'm just looking to understand the experience of others.

The full list of who I'm looking to connect with is in the comments, but the short of it: Mid-career women who know they are a rockstar but are struggling to live up to their potential in their current role/org.

Drop Rockstar in the comments.

I am always skeptical of these offers, someone who takes her up on it please restore my faith in humankind and tell me they did not try to sell you something!

No offense but you can’t really accomplish anything in 30-minutes. Why not offer an hour or two hours?

helpful

If you laser focus, you can. I've personally experienced pretty massive insights from 30 minutes of coaching from an external and objective perspective. I've also helped others gain clarity and perspective on their situation and walk away with tangible action steps in a 30 minute time frame.

Thank you, I sent you a message.

I'm more mid/late career so have gone thru that stage already and can talk about the other side. Happy to help.

If you've been there, I'm sure you relate. Thank you, I'll drop you a message.

Awesome, I tried to send you a chat but looks like you don't have that feature yet. If you're open, let's connect on LinkedIn. My name's Carin. https://www.linkedin.com/in/carinpaupore

Is this valid or helpful for outside the US? Because I feel like a rockstar but I’m Europe based and I’m sure the market is quite different.

Good then I’m in if you like

Specifically, I'd love to chat if you:
✅ Have 10-20 yrs experience and are struggling in your current role (or were there in the past)
✅If feels like the harder you try to improve the situation, the worse it gets.
✅On one hand, you know you're a rockstar, on the other you're fighting imposter syndrome and feelings of unworthiness.
✅ You keep saying "it'll get better when..." And it keeps not getting better
✅ You're growth minded and understand we all have areas where we can learn more about ourselves and grow.

🙌Drop ROCKSTAR in the comments🙌 or send me a DM for more. Again, I'm gifting a 30 min career strategy session for 20 minutes of your time. TIA.

Because I'm actually doing market research. I do get it- I've been bait-and-switched plenty of times and I know it isn't a good feeling. Integrity is important to me and I don't want to make others feel that way. I don't pitch people or make offers on calls unless it was clear in the invitation they accepted that talking about how to work with me was part of it. I also know that to get something, you gotta give something. So for 20 minutes of someone's time, I'll give them 30 of mine. Or a Starbucks gift card if they prefer.
