I’m Rachel Garrett.

A Career Transition Coach. A former marketer. A mom to two daughters. And a feminist to my core.

I inspire meaning-seeking women to create energizing careers, make a bigger impact in the world and be the mothers, partners, colleagues and friends they want to be.

I believe, as women, we are following the wrong rules…the ones that keep us small, stuck and overwhelmed. To feel fulfilled in our work and our lives, we need to create our own rules. 

I will help you define your own set of career rules, gain clarity about what your career path/s can be, then build your confidence by going out there and making your vision a reality. 

No B.S. No excuses. Just action, guidance, and support to help you design your career on your own terms.

 
 
 

Why am I doing this? 

I was a happily married mother of two dynamic daughters. I had a “great” career in corporate digital marketing for more than 15 years… but I wasn’t happy. It wasn’t my family life making me unhappy, it was my career.

After 15+ years in a very specific field, many people I know thought I was crazy when I decided to make a career change. And for a while I listened to them, worrying about their opinion. That was until I ran the NYC marathon in 2014 and decided I was going to take command of my success. I accomplished something only 1% of people can say they’ve done, complete a marathon...and I’m a pretty shitty runner. I started to imagine what I would be capable of if I put all my determination into something I’m already good at.

Now it’s my life’s mission to help women step into their power and confidence...without having to run a marathon!


How did I get here?

After 15+ years in digital marketing roles for top tier firms like American Express, Scholastic, Reader’s Digest and most recently the Visiting Nurse Service of New York—I decided I needed to finally make the change I’d been inching toward my entire career. 

I became a coach—supporting women, like you, in finding confidence and agency in your lives. 

Helping you step out of overwhelm and into meaningful, energizing, creative work. 

Helping you make a change. You may think you’re not good at change, but watching women adapt like fucking warriors in a global pandemic has proven to me (yet again) that you’re capable of so much more than you know. 

So, here I am. Your coach, your mentor, your motivator, reporting for duty.

You can do this and we can do this together.
