I had just transitioned out of full-time ministry—a field I deeply loved and had dedicated years to. Stepping away from that and trying to re-enter the job market was overwhelming. I struggled to find the confidence to identify a new career direction and often felt lost, applying to jobs without a clear sense of purpose. My job search had been filled with rejections, leaving me feeling stuck and unsure of what I truly wanted to pursue. 

Honestly, working with Corey felt like having a therapist, friend, and career coach all in one. He brought out a confidence in me that I hadn’t felt in a while, helping me see my own potential and providing solid guidance on how to move forward. Corey was relatable and empathetic, meeting me where I was while being real and inspirational. He shared practical tools and gave me direct, personalized feedback, walking me step-by-step through what I needed to do. By the end of the session, I felt hopeful and capable of pursuing a career that excites me—not just a job to pay the bills. 

I specifically looked for a coach of color because that representation is hard to find in professional settings, so that was a major plus! Corey has a unique balance of leader and friend, which I think is crucial in coaching. He has a natural sensitivity to where you’re at emotionally—he knew I was in a vulnerable place but stayed focused on building my confidence. Instead of being judgmental or giving quick-fix answers, he listened, accepted, and offered thoughtful guidance, showing me practical steps to reach my goals. In terms of showing up as a friend, he held space for my emotions, gave affirmations, and never made me feel rushed. Corey genuinely invested in me as a person. He's the type of coach who probably would continue to check in on his client's progress. 

It’s given me the confidence, direction, and support I needed. Rather than feeling defeated, I’m excited to tackle the challenges ahead. I’m confident that the next job I land will be due, in large part, to the coaching I’ve received here. Before, I doubted I could find anything outside of ministry that would genuinely excite me, but now I can envision a career path I’m thrilled about, allowing me to fully embrace this new chapter. 

I hadn’t realized just how invaluable having a career coach would be. Sometimes, you really don’t know what you don’t know, and having someone to guide you and streamline your efforts can save a tremendous amount of time and energy. Talking things through with someone who can not only direct you but also help you uncover personal insights is incredibly empowering.
