I’ve been where you are now

☛ Feeling low confidence, like an imposter

☛ Frustrated, wanting more from my career

☛ Lost, with no career direction

☛ Afraid, that I’m losing my edge

I wanted to be successful but had no idea how

What I did know, is that I had to take control to

✔ Grow my confidence and feel competent

✔ Improve my career prospects

✔ Get career direction

✔ Empower myself and be relevant

Career confidence changed everything…

I’ve worked in the Logistics and Supply Chain industry for over 20 years.

My journey was not easy and success didn’t happen overnight.

I faced many challenges, often feeling like an imposter struggling with confidence.

Much later that evolved to the understanding that any career success had to be based on a foundation of confidence nurtured with courage.

This evolved into a journey to understand myself, my needs, and my career desires.

It enabled me to carve out an authentic career path that I felt motivated towards achieving, celebrated my strengths, made me feel happy, and rewarded me with increasingly better compensation.

Coaching with Danielle

Coaching is a powerful one-to-one learning experience that allows focus on the areas that will impact your career the most.

My approach is guided by the COURAGE Model of Change© framework, underpinned by a mixture of coaching, mentoring, and Positive Psychology intervention techniques.

With coaching, you are guided every step of the way. As new challenges arise, they can be tackled straight on and I will be there to motivate you through it.

Stephen McGuirk

Head of Warehouse Operations

I was at a point in my career where I felt it had just stagnated. I’d become disconnected, almost lost on that hamster wheel that kept on going round and round. It started to impact my self-confidence, self-belief, passion, and drive. I reached out to Danielle with an open mind, not really knowing what support I needed to change where I was. Through engaged questioning, coaching, and mentoring Danielle helped me to identify how to unpick/unlock where I currently was in my career path and mindset. She focused on self-awareness and what I had already achieved, strengths, skills, and experiences I have already gained. My confidence and self-belief and courage reignited to the point I could recognize the need for change. I decided to make some fundamental changes to my career path, resigning from my then position of Warehouse Site Manager, taking some well-earned time out, and then starting my new role as Head of Warehouse Operations. I would highly recommend to anyone who is at this point in their life or career who wants change but is unsure how to make that change, to reach out to Danielle. My experience has been career-changing.

From Procrastination to Career Progress

Danielle Drozd0 Comment

Feeling frustrated and stuck because of lack of a career plan is something I come across a lot. The root cause of feeling this way comes from lack of direction. When you have a vision of where you want to go or what you want to achieve, you can get on and plan the steps....

Develop Career Courage

Danielle Drozd0 Comment

Like me, you may have a view of courage that is represented as a lion; big, fierce, strong, with a determination to achieve whatever the danger. The lion is not afraid because it has a mission, however, could carelessly facing danger represent courage? Perhaps the pursu...
