You've always worked hard, taken pride in what you do, and known how to handle difficult situations. But after experiencing a toxic workplace, things feel different.
Maybe you're:
Constantly on edge, anticipating criticism, expecting something to go wrong, or struggling to relax.
Feeling disconnected from yourself professionally, questioning your abilities, accomplishments, and what you want from your career.
Struggling to trust people, keeping your guard up, questioning their intentions, or finding it difficult to advocate for yourself.
Dreading the thought of work, even though your career used to bring you purpose, satisfaction, and a sense of accomplishment.
You know the experience has changed you, but you haven't figured out how to navigate your career as the person you are now.
You've spent a lot of time trying to make sense of what happened.
You've replayed conversations, researched toxic workplace behavior, talked it through with people you trust, and tried to figure out what you could have done differently.
But a toxic job doesn't just change how you feel about your former workplace.
It can change how your body responds to stress, how you see yourself professionally, how you relate to other people, and what you expect from work.
Over time, those changes can influence the opportunities you pursue, the risks you're willing to take, and the decisions you make about your career.
Understanding what happened is important. But understanding it alone doesn't necessarily change how it's affecting your professional life today.
Imagine knowing who you are professionally, what you want from your career, and feeling able to make decisions about your future based on your own goals and priorities.
You could:
Feel more at ease navigating professional challenges, with less of the tension and fear that followed you out of your toxic workplace.
Connect with a new professional identity, recognizing your experience, abilities, and accomplishments as you decide what you want next.
Navigate professional relationships with greater intention, trusting your judgment, establishing boundaries, and advocating for your needs.
Consider career opportunities without your past experience defining what's possible, whether that means staying, leaving, pursuing career advancement, or exploring something entirely different.
Have a healthier relationship with work, where your commitment to your career doesn't come at the expense of your health, relationships, or personal life.
Take ownership of your professional future, making intentional decisions about the career and life you want now.
You can be ambitious, successful, and in charge of your career without sacrificing yourself in the process.

A structured, personalized approach to recovering from a toxic job and getting your career back on track.
The Career Reset is a four-month private 1:1 coaching experience designed to help experienced professionals rebuild safety in their relationships with their bodies, themselves, other people, and work so they can reclaim their professional identities and make career decisions on their own terms.
Using my Toxic Job Recovery Framework, we'll work through how your toxic workplace experience has affected your relationship with yourself and your career, so you can make decisions about your professional future based on your goals, values, and priorities rather than what you've experienced in the past.
MONTH 1:
Understand how your toxic workplace experience has affected your body's response to stress and what helps you feel safer.
Prolonged workplace stress can leave your body anticipating threats, even when your circumstances have changed. We'll explore how these responses show up in your professional life and how to support yourself when they do.
You'll learn how to:
Recognize your body's stress responses and understand what triggers them.
Identify when past workplace experiences are influencing how you respond to current situations.
Develop practical ways to feel more grounded when navigating professional challenges.
Recognize what helps you feel safer and more supported in your everyday life.
Approach career decisions and opportunities with greater capacity to consider your options rather than automatically preparing for the worst.
MONTH 2:

Understand the protective patterns you developed and how they may still be affecting your career decisions.
Reconnect with your strengths, values, needs, and priorities.
Recognize where you've been prioritizing others' expectations over your own needs.
Make intentional career decisions that reflect who you are and what matters to you now.
MONTH 3:
Build healthy professional relationships without compromising your needs, values, or boundaries.
A toxic workplace can change how you experience relationships with colleagues, managers, and other people in your professional life. We'll explore how those experiences have affected your sense of safety and trust, and what it takes to navigate relationships differently.
You'll learn how to:
Recognize unhealthy workplace dynamics, including manipulation, gaslighting, and boundary violations.
Understand how past experiences may influence your expectations of and responses to other people.
Identify what helps you feel safe, respected, and supported in professional relationships.
Establish boundaries and advocate for your needs without taking responsibility for other people's reactions.
Navigate professional relationships and difficult conversations in ways that support your career goals and priorities.
MONTH 4:
Take back ownership of your career and redefine what professional success looks like on your terms.
A toxic workplace can change what you expect from work, how you define success, and which career opportunities feel possible. We'll examine how those experiences have influenced your relationship with work and what you want your professional future to look like.
You'll learn how to:
Recognize how your workplace experiences have shaped your expectations of work, success, and professional achievement.
Distinguish between healthy, dysfunctional, toxic, and abusive workplace cultures so you can evaluate professional opportunities more effectively.
Understand workplace dynamics and employer priorities so you can make more informed career decisions.
Redefine success in ways that reflect your ambitions, values, and priorities without sacrificing your well-being.

The Career Reset is designed for experienced professionals who have experienced a toxic workplace and are struggling to get their careers back on track.
This program might be right for you if:
You're still feeling on edge, overwhelmed, or unable to fully relax, even if your workplace circumstances have changed.
You've spent years building a successful career, but you no longer feel connected to who you are professionally or what you want next.
Your experiences have changed how you relate to colleagues, managers, and other people professionally, making it harder to feel safe, trust, or advocate for yourself.
Work no longer feels the way it used to, and you're questioning what success, ambition, and professional fulfillment mean to you now.
You're finding it difficult to pursue opportunities or make career decisions without the experience of your toxic job influencing what happens next.
Your normal strategies are not working but you're not sure what else to do.
You want personalized support to address the impact of your experience and take back ownership of your career.
The Career Reset may not be the right fit if:
You're looking exclusively for traditional career services, such as résumé writing, interview preparation, or job placement, rather than addressing how a toxic workplace experience has affected your career.
You're seeking therapy or clinical trauma treatment. The Career Reset is a coaching program, not a substitute for mental health care.
You want someone to make your career decisions for you. My role is to help you understand your experiences, evaluate your options, and make informed decisions based on your own goals and priorities.
You're looking for a quick fix. Recovering from a toxic workplace and changing your relationship with work takes time, reflection, and practice.
I've worked inside corporate systems, managed teams, and coached professionals through career transitions and workplace challenges. I understand how organizations operate, the pressures professionals face, and how difficult it can be to navigate your career after a toxic workplace experience.
I've also experienced the lasting impact of a toxic job firsthand. That experience led me to study workplace psychology, trauma, and nervous system regulation, and to develop my Toxic Job Recovery Framework.
The Career Reset combines my corporate leadership and career coaching experience, specialized trauma-informed training, and personal understanding to help you recover from a toxic job and take back ownership of your career.
My background includes:
ICF Professional Certified Coach (PCC)
ICF-Certified Somatic Trauma-Informed Coach & Leader
CPD-Accredited Narcissistic Abuse Recovery Specialist
Bachelor's Degree in Psychology
Mental Health First Aid Certification
Nearly 1,000 hours coaching professionals through workplace and career challenges
Here's what clients have shared about their experiences working with me.
"Katie, Thank you so much for your support while I navigated multiple, significant life changes. Your unbiased, objective, and supportive perspective helped me recognize situations where I was reacting from a dysregulated nervous system state. Your coaching helped me process deep rooted trauma and heal my nervous system!"
"Katie provides a safe, non-judgmental space for personal growth, accountability, and practical tools for lasting change. She helped me recognize triggers by raising awareness of my body's responses to stress. She provided tools for nervous system regulation, empowering me to go forward with more ease and clarity and to pursue a life more in alignment with who I am."
"Katie is kind, asks thought provoking questions and brought welcomed humor into some difficult conversations. She is knowledgeable, and straightforward, which is what I needed. She made me feel heard, but also held me accountable to my role in situations we discussed. Highly recommend!"
"Katie challenged me in all the ways that I needed to be challenged. Listened to everything I had to say and asked me questions to help me see a difference in perspective instead of spinning my wheels. I used to hold this constant tension in my jaw and through our time together it slowly loosened up and I’ve not had that tension since. I know that what I’ve learned from Katie I’ll always have to practice, but she gave me the tools to help me so that I don’t end up where I was before. I will tell anyone and everyone that she is the best for as long as I can. If there’s one word for what she’s given me, it’s release."
"When I first reached out for coaching, I was in a desperate state. I wasn’t sleeping, was anxious all the time and felt I wasn’t remotely present with my family. While working with Katie Jean, I’ve been able to think more objectively about work and the outputs without spiraling and being riddled with angst. It’s also helped me set up boundaries to protect myself and my family time. What I’ve loved about Katie Jean’s coaching is these skills will carry with me to any job and even life situations."
"Katie is a fabulous coach and thought partner. She is a great listener and provides thoughtful and practical feedback and reflections. Katie really helped me make a successful career transition, and I am certain that process would have been much harder without her support. I would give Katie my strongest recommendation!"
"An exceptional coach who truly listens and meets you where you are. Insightful, motivating, and grounded in real-world strategy, she helps you gain clarity, confidence, and sustainable momentum. I felt supported, challenged, and empowered every step."
"Katie taught me how to recognize the ways in which past experiences show up in the workplace, and gave me incredibly effective tools to stay calm and centered in the moment. After years of bending over backwards to please everyone, I am finally putting my needs first."
Your toxic workplace experience may have changed how you see yourself, relate to others, and approach work. But it doesn't have to determine the direction of your career.
The Career Reset provides four months of personalized trauma-informed career coaching to help you address those changes, reclaim your professional identity, and get your career back on track.
