I'm Michele Martin and I am a certified Career Development Facilitator and Instructor with over 15 years of experience in helping people figure out what they want to be when they grow up.
I'm also a product of most of the experiences and activities I share with you here. I have used these resources for my own personal and professional growth and have been able to construct for myself a life that is flexible, productive, and purposeful. I work for myself out of my own home, in large part because of the work that I've done and share here. These resources have also helped me support myself and my family and continue to grow both personally and professionally, even through hard times in my life.
I personally believe that women have unique career needs that can only be addressed within a community of other women. I also believe that in today's world, we can only survive if we are paying attention to our lives and our careers on an ongoing basis, just like exercising every day. My goal is to give you a space to take care of yourself and your career--a space that is safe, but challenging, where you can explore and grow and create for yourself the best life you can with the support of other women who know what you're going through.
And in case you're wondering, those are my two daughters, Jessica and Ali, in the picture above. They are two of the biggest reasons I want to support women's career aspirations. I want to make sure that they have a great range of options, the tools to access those options and a community to support them.
