Join us on the ultimate journey to professional joy and freedom.

Are you feeling burnt out, bored out, or frustrated by work, but can't figure out how to make a change? Do you secretly think there has to be more to life than working long hours in a job you don't like? Trust me, I've been there, and I know there's a way out. Join me on The Career Change masterclass and let's figure out how to create a career (and life) you truly love.

Meet Your Instructor.

Natalia Schmid

I've been a dentist, an education manager, a communication specialist, an entrepreneur, and a life & business mentor. Through it all, I have learned that career change has little to do with transferrable skills and job search tactics (even though both are relevant!). Instead, it has everything to do with answering these questions: Who am I? What do I want in life? How do I make an impact with my career? When it comes to success, there are two things I know for sure. The first one is this: You already have all the answers you need inside of you to create a life and career you truly love. The second is this: It is so much easier not to walk this path alone. It will be my honor and joy to help you unlock your own answers, connect you with a group of like-minded career changers, and support you in creating a life and career you are passionate for.

What clients are saying about me

Thanks.

by Clara, from Spain

Before I met Natalia, I thought I would never be happy at work. She helped me realize everything I had to offer and gave me the courage to apply for jobs that I was much more interested in. Thank you, Natalia!

Irreplaceable.

by Soraya, from Switzerland

Natalia helped me see my potential better than I saw it myself at the time. Her coaching sessions helped me gain clarity of my life and business vision and achieve goals that I thought were out of my reach.

Superb!

by Paul, from Switzerland

When I started my business, Natalia helped me see how my past negative business experiences were getting in the way of my present success and helped me get my entrepreneurial career off the ground.

FAQ

  • What's included in this masterclass?

    By enrolling, you have full access to the semi-live course, running from March 5th to April 9th, and full access to all course materials until December 31st, 2022. You can also join a private LinkedIn group with other supportive career changers and with myself.

  • Is the course live or self-paced?

    The Career Change Masterclass is a semi-live, self-paced course. New lessons and exercises will be posted to the classroom every Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday during weeks 1, 2, 4, and 5 (week 3 is a break designed to help you settle the insights gained during the first two weeks). You are free to access and complete each new lesson whenever you like. However, I recommend that you take the lessons in order, as each consecutive lesson builds on the one before.

  • How much interaction can I expect with the instructor?

    I will be available via the LinkedIn group throughout the entire semi-live course (except during the break week), answering your course material questions. The exercises will not be individually corrected, and 1:1 sessions are not included in this course package but can be booked separately upon request.

  • I'm unhappy at work, but am not sure of what direction I should take with my career change. Is this course for me?

    Absolutely. The Career Change Masterclass is designed to help you tap into your unexplored potential and bring it to life in the form of feasible career options. Not having clarity on where you are going right now is not a hurdle, it's an asset because it means you will stay open-minded and curious throughout the process. The willingness to find your own answers (even when it's uncomfortable) and to take bold steps in the right direction (even when you're scared) is all you need at this point.

  • I have too many ideas for my career change. Is this course for me?

    Yes! If you have too many ideas of what to do next with your career, you might be a multi-potentialite, which is great news. This course will help you both gain clarity on the next step of your career and create a purpose statement that can guide your career in the long-run.

  • Will I be ready to change careers after finalizing this course?

    Maybe, maybe not. Career change is an individual process influenced by many factors, including past experiences and fears, self-love, and your capacity to stay open and take bold (and sometimes uncomfortable) steps in the right direction. It is a beautiful and vulnerable process which cannot be rushed. The Career Change Masterclass is designed to give you the tools, insight, inspiration and strength to make a change. Your timing and actual process will be as individual as you are.

  • I want to change careers, but am not willing or able to take a pay cut or make significant lifestyle changes at this point. Is this course for me?

    No pain, no gain, my friend. Even though this masterclass is designed to help you create the life and career you truly want (and money is indeed a part of that), there is no guarantee that you will not have to take a pay cut or adjust your lifestyle in the short term in order to make your mid and long-term vision work. That being said, career change is a great opportunity to align your career with your life's true purpose, and that is, in turn, a great way to increase your income in the long run. Why? Because the more fulfilled you are at work, the more value you will create, and true value generally attracts money.

  • Will this course offer me the opportunity to connect with prospective employers and headhunters?

    Even though the LinkedIn group offers you the opportunity to connect with interesting people who might be able to open doors for you, it is not the object of this course to connect you with potential employers or headhunters.
