Transform Your Background Into Your Professional Advantage
The inPOWER Pathways Framework™ helps justice-impacted women secure meaningful employment with benefits, advancement opportunities, and respect. This proven 8-step system transforms barriers into stepping stones through practical strategies, personalized coaching, and employer partnerships.
Traditional employment programs focus only on getting hired.
InPOWER Pathways™ addresses the whole person:
1. Deep Discovery
We begin with your strengths - identifying peak-energy moments, hidden skills, and future vision. Together we'll create a personalized Discovery Sheet that serves as your roadmap and confidence booster.
2. Skill Translation
Transform your experiences into employer-ready language with action-focused skill clustering. We'll create two powerful résumés: your "Love-Letter" résumé for dream roles and a "Bills-to-Pay" résumé for interim opportunities.
3. Background Narrative Mastery
Learn our proven 90-second background speech framework that transforms your record from a barrier to a strength. Practice until it becomes second nature, with video feedback to perfect your delivery.
4. Strategic Employer Matching
Access our exclusive POWER Pathways Matrix™ of employers whose hiring policies align with various backgrounds. We'll match you with opportunities where your specific situation won't be a barrier.
Note: Our POWER Pathways Matrix™ incorporates research-based findings from SHRM (Society for Human Resource Management) indicating that recidivism risk drops significantly 5-7 years after conviction.
5. Employment Potential Evaluation
Distinguish yourself through our comprehensive evaluation framework that quantifies your professional capabilities beyond your background. This structured assessment incorporates professional references from supervision officers, program directors, and previous workplace supervisors-- evidence consistently rated as most impactful in hiring decisions. The evaluation uses weighted criteria to provide employers with a complete picture of your growth journey and readiness for success.
6. Interview-to-Offer Conversion
Master mock interviews with video feedback, closing scripts that demonstrate immediate value, and our "thank-you sprint" strategy that dramatically increases offer rates.
7. 90-Day Retention Support
Our work doesn't end at "hired"—we provide structured check-ins on Day 1, Week 1, and the crucial 30/60/90-day milestones to ensure your success and address any challenges.
8. Community Connection
Join our network of successful graduates who serve as peer mentors and proof that lasting transformation is possible.
Before the inPOWER Pathways™ program, I was convinced my record would forever define my career options. The background narrative training completely transformed how I presented myself in interviews. Within six weeks, I secured a position that values my skills and pays more than I ever earned before. For the first time, I see my past as part of my strength, not just my story."

You'll feel safe to be yourself--messy bun, yesterday's coffee, and all--supported by someone who's not just walked in your shoes, but has tripped over the toys in them too.

You'll feel safe to be yourself--messy bun, yesterday's coffee, and all--supported by someone who's not just walked in your shoes, but has tripped over the toys in them too.
I've navigated the chaos of balancing spreadsheets and sippy cups, deadlines and doctor appointments. This isn't just theory for me; it's lived experience transformed into practical wisdom.
Together, we'll create breathing room in your life where overwhelm once lived, helping you not just survive your many roles, but truly thrive in them without sacrificing yourself in the process.
Your peace of mind matters to me--almost as much as those rare moments when everyone naps at the same time! Try the first two sessions of our cohort with complete confidence. If you decide we're not the right fit for your journey, simply let me know and I'll refund 100% of your investment, no questions asked.

Your peace of mind matters to me--almost as much as those rare moments when everyone naps at the same time! Try the first two sessions of our cohort with complete confidence. If you decide we're not the right fit for your journey, simply let me know and I'll refund 100% of your investment, no questions asked.
No complicated hoops to jump through (because you already jump through enough of those daily), no guilt trips (you get enough of those from that exercise bike you bought), and absolutely zero risk. The only thing you stand to lose is the overwhelm that's been holding you back.
And while I'm completely confident in the transformative power of this program, the choice to continue is entirely yours. The guarantee is real, though between us, I have a feeling, you'll be staying for the whole journey!
I'm not just another appointment--I'm your trusted partner who gets the grocery store meltdowns and remembers both your kids' names AND career goals.
I've juggled conference calls with fevers and deadlines with school pickups. I understand the mental load you carry--from remembering vaccination schedules to presentation deadlines, all whi
I'm not just another appointment--I'm your trusted partner who gets the grocery store meltdowns and remembers both your kids' names AND career goals.
I've juggled conference calls with fevers and deadlines with school pickups. I understand the mental load you carry--from remembering vaccination schedules to presentation deadlines, all while wondering if anyone noticed you wore the same shirt twice this week.
You're gaining someone who celebrates your wins (even tiny ones), helps through setbacks, and believes in you when everything feels impossible. Someone who won't judge when your 'professional' Zoom call features a surprise appearance from a toddler or pet. Together, we'll create strategies that work for your real life--not some Instagram--perfect fantasy world.
This journey isn't about perfection--it's about practical progress with someone who's been there, done that, and forgot to buy the t-shirt because the shopping list was left on the kitchen counter. And that's exactly why I know how to help you find your way through.
