I sought out Career Design during a “quarter-life crisis” and am forever grateful. Working with Heather helped me identify my strengths and clarify which industries would best align with my skills and values. I am currently pursuing a career in speech language pathology, which was one of my “top 3 careers” on a personality test I took with her. If you are trying to figure out next steps, I highly recommend speaking with Heather and Career Designs to find your next path. Thank you!

Career Design COMPLETELY shifted my approach! My advisor, Heather, guided me from just looking for another job to positioning myself for a career transition! An absolutely profound approach for a 54y/o professional that until now believed my options were limited. Career Design’s process will help you see where YOU FIT even in today’s job market and how your experience, skill sets, and character traits are NEEDED in career fields you most likely never considered! The personalized coaching along with integrating the use of AI technology was like giving me the cheat codes NO ONE thinks about. Forget traditional recruiters – That’s the past! My optimism and confidence are now forever strengthened; and as of this post, I have three options under consideration!

Heather and Hollis provided amazing guidance throughout my career transition. From revamping my resume and Linked In account, to creating clarity around what type of role I desired, they create a custom and comprehensive experience. I highly recommend Career Design for anyone looking for a career coach or specific strategies and advice on landing a new job.

Working with Heather through the Career Design program was nothing short of transformative. She helped me gain clarity around my next career move at a time when I felt stuck and uncertain. The program didn’t just improve my job search—it completely shifted my mindset. I walked away with renewed confidence, a clear direction, and ultimately, a role I’m genuinely excited about. I can’t recommend Career Design—and Heather Hollis—highly enough to anyone who’s ready for real change in their career journey!

I was feeling stuck and unsure about my career direction, but after working with Hollis, everything changed. She guided me through the process with patience, encouragement, and actionable advice — and I landed a job I’m truly excited about! Hollis was amazing to work with and made what felt overwhelming so much easier. I’m so grateful for her support — I couldn’t have done it without her!

I booked an appointment for a free consultation with no intention of continuing, just wanted some quick (free) career advice. But I was blown away during that first meeting. I knew there was no turning back. And now I tell all my friends and family that the best decision I have ever made for my professional development was Career Design. Heather has helped me so much during a confusing and discouraging time in my career journey, providing me with clarity and more defined goals to pursue my professional dreams. She tailored my entire plan/curriculum to perfectly fit my specific situation and individual needs. Whether preparing for interviews, scrolling jobsites listlessly, or simply feeling stuck, these pros at Career Design are here to help, going above and beyond to get you where you need to be. They truly spend the time to get to know you (and help you know yourself) in order to identify what fits you best. Honestly, just the knowledge of having Heather in my corner when I get stuck or feel unsure about career moves, has been such a comfort to me. I know so many people out there are struggling in “career limbo” and it is such an awful feeling, I am so glad Career Design is here to get us all through it.

I came to Career Design completely stuck. On paper, I had everything I thought I wanted. I had the title, the salary, everything I thought I wanted. But in reality, I was burned out, working unmanageable hours, and barely seeing my family. I couldn’t figure out why I was so unhappy, or how to make a career change without blowing up everything I’d worked for. Working with Heather and Hollis at Career Design was a turning point. As career coaches and counselors, they helped me step back and reassess what I truly wanted. We uncovered my core strengths, clarified my values, and redefined what personal success actually looked like for me. For the first time, I could name why my job no longer fit, and what kind of work would. From there, they guided me through every step of the job search process. They helped me build a strategic exit plan, craft a resume and LinkedIn profile that reflected who I am and what I was aiming for, and create a powerful networking message. They even coached me on how to ask the right interview questions to make sure any future job aligned with my boundaries and goals. The result? I stayed in the same industry, and landed a new role at an organization that actually fits. My work hours are manageable, I get time with my family, and I feel excited to show up again. And it all happened faster than I ever expected. If you’re feeling stuck, burned out, or lost in your career, I can’t recommend Career Design enough. Whether you’re thinking about a career change, need help navigating a job search, or just want to find work that actually fits, this is the team you want in your corner. The only thing you’ll regret is not calling them sooner!
