let’s work together!

Every coaching journey is unique and needs to be fully adapted to your needs and your goals. Whether you are looking for a new job, curious to start something of your own, or looking to find more alignment and meaning in what you do—coaching can get you there feeling confident and cared for (and likely get you further than you thought you’d go).

let’s start with…

Let's schedule 30 minutes to get to know each other and find out if we’d be a great match.

During our time together, we can explore what coaching could mean for you. Just show up—there is no need for you to prepare anything.

Sometimes, you just need straight answers and a solid game plan—right now. This is a one-time, hands-on session—no big reflections, no fluff. Just concise, research-based advice from someone who’s been on the other side of the hiring process.

I’ve supported people with:

  • Navigating tricky negotiations while keeping things calm and friendly

  • Clarifying their next steps and taking ownership of their career path

If you’re feeling stuck and need clear, actionable steps to get things moving, this is for you.

Kind words

  • I had been feeling stuck in my career direction for a while, but from the first session Silja’s energy was exactly what I needed. She truly listened, providing structure, clarity, and a supportive space making me feel understood. Thanks to her guidance, I now have a clearer understanding of my situation and feel confident in taking ownership, working on the concrete steps we defined together to keep moving closer to my ideal goal. Thank you for your constant help and support!

    Agathe

  • Silja’s approach to helping you will be tailored to your goal, as well as your personality. Her years of specialized experience in finding perfect candidates for a variety of Tech jobs and her positive approach to even the most complex of questions provide reassurance. Moreover, her easy-going, gentle personality, which is a welcoming sight in a grueling process such as job-hunting, made any interaction with her inspiring and pleasurable. Silja's guidance is what I wish everyone who dreams of finding a perfect career match could experience.

  • I recently had the privilege of experiencing a career coaching session with Silja. The session was a deep dive into my personal and professional aspirations, as well as the challenges I face in achieving them. Silja's insightful guidance not only helped me find viable paths to overcome these obstacles but also aligned them with the broader objectives of my organization. It's evident that her blend of technical acumen and exceptional interpersonal skills uniquely positions her to make a significant impact in this field. Her passion for fostering growth and success in others is truly inspiring, and I am confident that Silja's career coaching practice will be a beacon of support and transformation for many.

Her guidance helped me focus on identifying and aligning my personal and professional values with those of potential employers. This newfound perspective has not only boosted my confidence but also allowed me to approach my career journey with greater clarity and authenticity.

  • i love collaborating with silja, and i can’t recommend her enough! i worked with her during my career exploration and job search, and she was a valuable resource to have in my corner. she acted as a cheerleader and moral support, as well as helping me with the nitty gritty details like assessing job roles, understanding if the role was a fit for me, updating my cv, and preparing for job interviews and negotiation. since she has a background in recruitment, i trust her to give really helpful advice about positioning myself and presenting my best self to employers. she has a calm yet firm approach that i really enjoy, and i recommend her as a coach in whatever capacity best serves you.

Please don't hesitate to reach out, even if you are not sure that coaching currently fits within your budget. We aim to make coaching accessible to everyone, regardless of their financial resources. Let us know about your situation, and we’ll get back to you.

If you are an employee, you may be able to take advantage of your company's training and development budget to cover some or all of the cost. Get in touch if you need any support with this.

The coaching sessions can be conducted in English, German, Swiss German or Italian, whatever language you feel most comfortable with.

the wholesome growth club is all about giving introverts and perfectionists the support they need to craft a meaningful career—from figuring out what you need and value, navigating those tricky workplace situations, and boosting your confidence and resilience along the way. With personalized Co-Active coaching and a trauma-informed approach, it’s all about supporting you to thrive in the most authentic way.

looking for answers?

  • There are a few questions you can ask yourself to find out. First, are you looking to change something about your situation, specifically how you show up in your professional life? If that’s a yes—how would you feel about putting some work into changing things up? Are you still on board? Then, we should get things started. It’s always good to remember that reaching your goals takes commitment and courage. But if you sign up for coaching, I’ll be there to support you at every step.

  • That’s unlikely. Certified coaches are trained to coach people, not topics—so we’ll be touching on life more often than not. Plus, work is a big part of life—it can give us meaning and reflect our values. But remember that the only topics discussed in coaching are the ones you are comfortable sharing something about.

  • Big no. Therapy is meant to treat a mental health issue. You work through past experiences with a healthcare professional and explore ways to improve your well-being. Coaching focuses mostly on the present and the future and is all geared up to help you reach those goals that are meaningful to you. It’s less about healing and more about (softly) challenging you to build the life you want and keeping you accountable while doing so. If accessible to you, they can both be part of a great support system when it comes to dealing with life.

  • A safe and confidential space where you can reflect on your present life and future goals without judgment. Depending on where you are on your journey, we’ll be touching on different topics and questions during your session, and you’ll be reflecting on how to move closer to your goals. If you wish, I’ll also keep you busy with insightful tasks between our sessions.

  • Co-active coaching is a highly collaborative approach centered on self-discovery and awareness, avoiding prescriptive techniques or advice in favor of authentic answers. Co-active coaches actively listen, employing sensitive communication to understand body language, show acceptance, and validate feelings—fostering effective relationships and encouraging clients to own their experiences by addressing root causes over surface-level problems. This nonjudgmental approach respects diverse perspectives, enabling meaningful conversations that promote change and personal growth.

  • Sessions happen virtually, over video calls. Would you prefer to meet in real life? Just let me know.
