Signature Coaching Partnership

MOMENTUM

The custom coaching program helping you to transform your mid-career frustration into the momentum and confidence you need to move your life and career forward.

You're Feeling Like Poop.

But it doesn't have to be that way...

No one tells you how messy the mid-career years can feel. You’re asking yourself, Will I really be doing this same work for the next 20 years? Will I ever get the chance to do work that feels fulfilling? And the scariest question of all: Is this it?

You’ve been racking your brain trying to figure out what should be next in your career, and wondering why you can’t just figure it out. 

If you’re tired of feeling confused, and blocked, but exploring changes at this conjecture feels risky, irresponsible, and downright, scary, you’re in the right spot.

Let’s explore what it can look like to get the clarity you seek in a strategic, sustainable way. 

The Momentum Sessions

Custom Coaching Partnership for Mid-Career Individuals

Momentum” is the three-month coaching partnership I designed after spending over a year exclusively coaching mid-career professionals and leaders who all came to me  in various states of “stuckness.”

My key finding? That deep down, you know you’re not the type to clock in, collect a paycheck, and go home. You want a career you’re proud of because you know how much your work impacts every other part of your life. 

I want to help you move forward strategically. Together we will focus on mindset reframing, cultivating clarity and choice, and moving forward with sustained action. 

If you’re tired of feeling stuck, stagnant, and disconnected from your potential, this is the coaching partnership that will help you finally discover the next steps you need to take to pivot, or step into your potential, move into a role that is more suited for you. 

Who is this for?

I’m a career and leadership coach for frustrated millennials who suspect their limiting beliefs are holding them back from making career changes.

I’m the coach for you if you find yourself feeling these thoughts and emotions….

You’re not alone—and you don’t have to stay stuck. I understand that moving forward can feel risky and even scary. You might be wondering, Can career coaching really make a difference?

I’m here to show you that it can. 

Our Work Together

This is how we do it.

 You don’t want a life and career that is “good enough.” You want to be truly present. You want to feel excited about how you’re living and in control of your future. Momentum is the coaching partnership you’ve been looking for. 

Let's Tackle Your Challenges

Our Partnership

As my client you will get

Hi, I'm Your Coach, Amber J. Adams

Today I am Brown University-certified Leadership and Career Development Coach, but I vividly recall riding NYC buses to my jobs, where each jolt and bump of the ride knocked me into questioning my career and life direction.

I know what it’s like to be sitting at the career crossroads with some major doubts. 

I’ve been there and I understand how scary it can be to want to make changes and feel as if you can’t. 

But, I’m here to challenge you to bet on yourself. 

You might not know exactly what “moving forward” looks like right now (this is where coaching enters the chat!), but if you’re determined to fight for your potential, let’s talk. 

I’m excited to be your partner in reclaiming your power to create change in your life!

Words From Past Clients

Q&A

Book your Discovery Call with me. You’ll be taken to a page where you’ll enter in your name and email.  Our call is free, 30 minutes, and the best way for us to imagine working together. I look forward to meeting you!

You might not know what “moving forward” looks like right now (this is where coaching enters the chat!), but you recognize that you are nearing the point or have reached the point of no return: you are determined to move past your blocks and get on with living your life and building your career on your terms! 

 

  • You’re probably at a point where you can see how staying stuck is costing you. It might be in money, in opportunities, in relationships in your personal life (as your career impacts everything!), and it is ALWAYS in our most precious resource, time.  
  • You’re frustrated, tired, and might even be numb to it all, but you still have a flicker of optimism for what your future can look like. 
  • You’re ready to invest in yourself and fight to turn that flicker into a big ass flame, a roaring fire if you will. 
  • You’re coachable and open to self-exploration. 
 

The best way to discover if this is the move for you is to schedule a call!

People who aren’t coachable and have a fixed mindset or fatalistic thinking aren’t right for this partnership. 

People who don’t have any motivation to change their life right now. 

If you’re in a space where you don’t care what type of work you do (and how you do it), and you’re just in it for the paycheck, (no judgment!)  we’re probably not the best fit to work together. 

I tend to work with people who definitely care about their coins, but they care about HOW they are doing the work. In fact, a big source of their frustration is the disconnect between how they spend their days and how they actually WANT  to spend their days.

Accessibility is important to me, and that’s why I offer coaching options at a variety of price points and also offer payment plans. 

When we talk on your Discovery Call, I can suggest an option that meets you where you are. 

Clients who have worked with me have gained the confidence to pursue new career directions, and have cultivated clarity around what they wanted, which lead them to pursue and land dream roles. 

They have developed the courage to ask for what they needed in terms of compensation and recognition of responsibilities (and gotten both). And they have learned how to release or reframe the negative internal stories holding them back so that they could improve their mindset and their work performance.  

They developed the belief that they can sustain this energy and built the tools to do so. 

I share some of their stories in their words around this site. 

Our time together is finite, but my goal is to help you get results and build a personal framework for yourself that can see you through sustainably in the future.

Coaching is a powerful tool that can lead you to transformation in your life and career. 

As your coach, I am a partner in our equitable relationship, meaning that I’m not there to tell you “what to do” or “give you advice” but to challenge and champion you as we work through your blocks. 

The biggest difference between coaching and mentorship or consulting is that the client (you!) is regarded as being creative, resourceful, whole, and very capable of discovering answers within yourself with coaching support.

My goal is always to create space for you to explore, offer accountability, and ask powerful questions that help you shift your perspective and mindset. All wrapped up in a framework that is the tool needed to get you moving forward!

I’m a coach, so I will always say that investing in yourself is a worthy endeavor!

Once we’re beyond our college and university years, investing in our development mostly falls on us. It becomes easy to spend years going through the motions and not stopping to reflect on if these motions are taking us in the direction we really want to go. 

I still remember the first time I invested in coaching. It was scary, exhilarating, and ultimately life-changing. 

The right investment in yourself moves you forward in more ways than one. Not only do you stop wasting precious time, there is something that shifts in your energy and mindset when you bet on yourself. 

Investing in coaching is betting on yourself.

Whether it is today, or further down the line, know that you are always worth it.

I liken it to if we take a little Kelis, mix in Beyonce (in the Renaissance era, of course), and add in a dash of Oprah. In other words, grounded, dedicated to my craft, and exuberant. 

I’m not a hard ass, but my belief in you is hardcore. 

I am certified as a Leadership and Executive Coach via The Brown University School of Professional Studies and the ACT Leader program. I chose leadership specifically because I wanted to help more people take the lead in their lives and work with emerging leaders who want to lead in new, human-centered ways. 

I like to say that I’m “more flow, less hustle” and that is the energy I embody. I like to help my clients find the calm in the chaos so they can reconnect with who they truly are and how they want to show up in the world. 

I am a big proponent of “career wellness” which means I believe that your career/job/role is a piece of your life (if it’s not a well-suited piece, talk to me!) but not the totality of it. 

Your job isn’t your worth or your value as a human. It’s an opportunity for you to serve yourself and the world in whatever way fits with your ethos.

Absolutely! This session is more individualized, but to learn more about the sessions I do with a “leadership in my role” focus, check out the Elevated Sessions. I’m also able to create custom sessions for you that are a mix of both.
