Supporting Your Career Transition

Navigate Your Impact Career with Expert Guidance

You've built a strong career in education, philanthropy, or international development. Now you're at a crossroads. The question shifts from "How do I advance?" to "What's actually mine? What aligns with how I want to live?"

I work with experienced women navigating this liminal space: the unknown territory between who you've been and who you're becoming. Through mentoring, retreats, and peer cohorts, I help you move from circling questions to taking action with clarity and confidence.


1-on-1 Career Mentoring

Work directly with me, Nora, on your career strategy, positioning, and next moves in education and philanthropy.

Focus areas:

  • Defining Your North Star: Strategic direction that aligns with your values and energy, whether that's a foundation role, EdTech leadership, consulting, or portfolio work
  • Finding Your Positioning Thread: Clarity on what differentiates you, especially if you're building independent advisory work or a portfolio career combining multiple offerings
  • Visibility & Voice Through Multiple Formats: How to show up authentically. Writing and digital visibility (LinkedIn, articles). Speaking and presence (webinars, panels, events, mentoring circles). Finding what feels natural to you.
  • Testing Your Direction: Designing experiments that help you test your North Star in real time, gathering feedback from weak ties, and refining your approach
  • Application Strategy & Interview Preparation: For those pursuing traditional roles

Format: Single sessions (1h) or 3-session packages (3h)

Investment: €300/hour or €800 for 3 sessions

Experience: 17+ years in foundations, international development, and strategic partnerships, mentored over 50 mid-level and senior professionals.

Virtual Cohort

Six Weeks to Clear Direction, Energized Next Feeling stuck, or sensing that your next chapter is waiting for you to see it? This six-week virtual cohort is for mid-senior professionals in education, philanthropy, and social impact who are ready to move from circling questions to clear, tested action.

You’ll work through three stages:

  • Understand yourself: Read your energy signals, map your strengths and values, and see what drains you and what lights you up
  • Define your direction: Shape your North Star, build a compass for evaluating opportunities, and map the options worth testing
  • Move forward: Clarify your positioning, plan your visibility, and design a 90-day experiment with checkpoints

Between sessions, you’ll complete hands-on exercises and reflections at your own pace. Alongside them, you’ll learn with a small group of peers who understand the same frustrations, with feedback and accountability built in.

Format: Four live sessions of 1h 45min, three informal check-ins, and a January celebration

Timing: Starts December 2026, runs into January

Group size: Small, limited to 8 participants

Investment: €550 (reduced rate of €350 available for participants from low-income countries, marginalized communities, and freelance workers)

Career Transition Retreat in Greece

Three Days to Discover Your North Star

Prefer an immersive, in-person experience?

I offer a 3-day retreat on Kefalonia Island, Greece, designed for experienced women in education, philanthropy, and social impact navigating career transitions.

This retreat is about more than individual reflection. It's about being truly seen and uplifted by peers in the same life phase. Over three days, you'll work through exercises designed to move you from stuck to clarity. Your peers will reflect back what they see in you, name strengths you've stopped claiming, and help you brainstorm possibilities you hadn't considered alone.

You'll leave with:

  • Your North Star: A clear direction that aligns with your values and energy
  • Your Compass: How to know you're on track
  • Your 90-Day Plan: Concrete experiments to test your direction
  • Your Tribe: Peers who understand this work

Limited to 8 participants | 3 days, starting with evening arrival | Held at Rodi Studios, Kefalonia
