C.L.I.M.B Group Coaching Program May- October 2025


Discover your Strengths, Develop Key Skills and Build Confidence in Your Leadership

Are You Feeling Overlooked Despite Your Hard Work in these changing times?

You’re putting in the effort and contributing to meaningful work, but it still feels like you’re not being recognized the way you should be.

  • You struggle to advocate for yourself and highlight your accomplishments without feeling uncomfortable.

  • You’re unsure which skills you need to develop versus the strengths you already have but may not fully recognize or leverage.

  • You feel the weight of juggling demanding projects, career mobility, and personal priorities without a clear plan for growing without burnout.

  • You’re trying to build influence and visibility in environments where formal authority isn’t always granted.

  • And let’s admit it: careers in international development and social impact have become more uncertain in these last few months.

But it doesn’t have to be this way. What if you could uncover your hidden strengths, develop new skills with intention, and design a strategic path forward?

Introducing the C.L.I.M.B. Program : Coaching Leaders in International Development for Meaningful Breakthrough

A 6-month group coaching experience designed specifically for professionals working in social impact spaces, including international organisations, non-profits, advocacy organisations, and other mission-driven institutions, ready to elevate their careers.

The program isn’t just about gaining new skills; it's about uncovering what’s already within you, refining your goals and creating a step-by-step plan to help you thrive in your career without compromising your well-being. Through group sessions, personalized coaching, and a supportive network, you’ll build the confidence and clarity you need to navigate the complexities of international development while fulfilling the mission of the organisation.

Why I Created This Program

I know firsthand what it feels like to be overlooked, unsure of next steps, and struggling with self-advocacy while juggling the demands of a high-pressure career. Some days, I wonder how I made it through. After spending over 20 years working internationally, I returned home to Canada and began coaching professionals working in international development and the broader social impact space.

I quickly realized that many of the younger professionals I was working with faced the same challenges I had experienced - feeling invisible, unsure of their next steps, and trying to balance it all without a clear strategy.

What struck me most is this: Organisations often focus their leadership development on executives and senior leaders, leaving mid-level and emerging professionals without the guidance that helps them grow and thrive. Yet these are the leaders shaping the future—the ones already making an impact, who are ready to lead at a higher level when given the space, strategies, and support to rise.

That’s why I created the C.L.I.M.B. Program: to make leadership coaching accessible and to build a supportive, empowering space where professionals can develop the confidence, clarity, and strategy to elevate their careers while advancing their leadership and making a meaningful difference through their work.
