Career Compass

Tech Career & Life Coaching Package


If you’re feeling stuck, not sure what to do next, or have too many options – you may need help with career direction.

Career Compass is a coaching package from Thriving Technologist that shows you the way to go by:

  • Revealing why you’re really unsatisfied with your career.
  • Understanding how your career needs have changed since you started.
  • Getting straight talk on what’s holding you back from your goals.
  • Finding freedom from career limitations that the software industry (or your job) have put on you.
  • Having confidence in your unique career purpose so you stay true to your goals when the IT market changes.

How does Career Compass work?


Below is a diagram that summarizes the process:

BONUS: Access the Thriving Technologist Community

When you enroll in coaching, you’ll also get access to the Thriving Technologist Discord Community!

This is a private space dedicated to folks like us – passionate about making software development a healthier, more fulfilling pursuit.

It’s my way of saying a huge thank you for your trust and engagement in your own growth journey.

Inside, you’ll find a bunch of like-minded developers, announcements about content and resources to boost your career, and Discord channels for discussing the 4 focuses of my content today:

  • Career Progression
  • Working Healthy
  • Finding Purpose in Work
  • Escaping The Corporate Grind

These channels are also be available to subscribers of my Patreon who pay monthly to support my YouTube channel.

I’m hanging out there too, ready to chat, share, and grow together.

But as a coaching client, you’ll get lifetime access. You’ll also have access to exclusive text and voice channels only for my past (and present) clients. Here you can get to know other clients of mine who are equally passionate about having a healthy career in tech.

You’ll receive an email after your purchase inviting you to the server.

The Thriving Technologist discord server is a place to hang out, get answers to questions about your tech career, and share your wisdom with other people.

Pricing

Career planning gets more complicated if your job has more responsibility, or you’ve had a long career.

I’ll evaluate your career stage during the consultation, and coaching is priced accordingly.


Career Compass includes 6 1-on-1 coaching sessions to facilitate your results.

You’ll schedule sessions as you complete each step in the process shown in the diagram earlier.

What are clients saying?

Here’s what a few clients looking for help with making sense of career choices had to say about Jayme Edwards Coaching:

J. Max Shaer, a Technical Project Manager who was a client of Jayme Edwards Coaching

J. Max Shaer
Technical Project Manager

“Prior to meeting with Jayme, I was trying to decide whether to go back to school or find a new job. I was split on what made the most sense for my career, and he helped me make that decision. Rather than sticking to prefixed agendas, Jayme actively listens and asks challenging questions to help guide you through the process of making key career decisions on your own. Jayme has helped me restore confidence in myself and my career path.”

Working with Jayme has been a wonderful experience that boosted my confidence tremendously. The nature of the tech hiring process, and dev culture in general, too often led me to question my abilities and self worth.

Minutes into our first session, I realized I wasn’t alone! Before working with Jayme, I was miserable at a dead end job – desperately sending my resume to any job posting I could find. Since then I’ve recalibrated my goals to be in line with who I truly am as a human being. I’m working with great people and enjoying what I do.

Jayme’s positivity and experience in the industry could be helpful for just about anyone. He’s truly honest and will happily tell you what he can and can’t do without any façade. His developer coaching truly changed my life for the better, and I highly recommend it.

Matt Shelley
Senior Software Engineer

“I came to Jayme ten years into my career after feeling burned out, needing to take a long break away from the industry. I had seen his videos on developer burnout for the past few years, and felt like he really understood the troubles with burnout as a programmer. I was happy to see he offered career coaching, too.

Jayme helped me realize that I had taken on too much responsibility, sacrificed too much of my life outside of work, and grown addicted to learning – all because I was trying to climb higher and higher. He encouraged me to consider all sorts of roles, including Engineering Manager, Staff Engineer, and even stepping back to Senior Software Engineer.

Ultimately, Jayme helped me realize that I was much happier as a Senior Software Engineer where I had the right amount of responsibility, with a good income and healthy work / life balance. Our conversations saved me a lot of struggle working in a role that didn’t fit me.

I would highly recommend Jayme’s career coaching. It’s very rare to find someone who has gone through burnout, and has many, many years of developer experience. He really understands the challenges of developers who have been in the industry for quite a while. I am very happy with how much Jayme has helped me.”
