But right now your career isn't feeling so hot.
✔ You dread Mondays. You feel trapped and can't see a way out.
✔ You know you need to make a change, but you don't know where to start.
✔ Your head tells you one thing, but your heart tells you another.
✔ You want to explore your options so you can finally make a change.

“Sarah helped me recognize my superpowers, then develop them and share them with the world. My confidence went from 4 to 10 in a couple of months. Before we were done working together, I got a job that ticked all the boxes!”

I'm Sarah Vermunt, the gal behind Careergasm. I'm a career coach, former business professor, and the bestselling author of Careergasm and Career Rookie.
I've served up straight-talking career advice at places like Forbes, Inc., Entrepreneur, Fortune, and Fast Company. This is not my first rodeo.
I help people figure out what the heck they want so they can get unstuck and do work that actually feels good. And, my friend, that can be YOU.
6 months of career navigation with me.
To help you dig deep, get clear, and get moving in the right direction.
WHAT YOU'LL LEARN
You are your own worst enemy (we all are). The stories you tell yourself about what you can and can't have are holding you back. We'll rewire some of that thinking.
Good career navigation involves both intuition and logic. And you can't actually make good decisions unless you listen to your gut.
Your doubts and fears don't have to stop you from going after what you want. You just need to move through them. I'll help.
“Working with Sarah helped solidify where I wanted to transition my career, but also identified supporting aspects I didn’t realize were important to me. I'm more confident in where I’m taking my career thanks to our work, and more excited about opportunities than I've ever been. She took the time to get to know me and then used that information to help me identify how to structure my career plan.”
— Trevor Seelert
“I am so grateful that I had the privilege to work with Sarah when I did. I didn’t know what the hell my next move in my career was going to be. Sarah, my sparkly career fairy, worked her magic and helped me get really clear on what I wanted and needed in my career. Sarah, I can’t thank you enough for our time together. You are AMAZING!”
— Seja Ateia
“You are my one-stop-shop, 'finger on the pulse of reality', and ‘don’t poop your pants, it’s gonna be ok’ guide. Big hugs and so much gratitude!!!”
— Sara Mason
HOW IT WORKS
Perfectly Paced
We'll connect twice a month — once during our 1-on-1 coaching session, and again at a monthly support call where you can check-in and ask questions. You'll also receive videos and worksheets to complete between sessions so you maintain your momentum. That combo, perfectly paced, is what gives people the structure and accountability they need to get unstuck and finally get moving in the right direction.
Our Coaching Sessions
We’ll spend our 1-on-1 sessions digging deep and exploring your interests, curiosities, and strengths. Maybe we’ll toss in some strategy. Maybe we’ll spend a session or two polishing your resume until it sparkles. How we do this is up to you, and everybody needs something a little different.
It’s my job to help you articulate what you want. I do that by asking good questions. And by listening like a ninja. And by pointing out some of your blind spots. And, occasionally, by calling you on some of your bullshit (it’s done with love, I promise). It’s your job to dig deep, be honest, and do the work.
Homework: The Fun Kind
Accountability is the thing that many people say gets them unstuck. So there will be homework in-between our sessions — deep, introspective, fun, brain-tickling exercises to help you get you unstuck.
+ you'll get this huge BONUS
FREE access to my 15-module
Career Change Course
($997 value!)
The videos, exercises, and worksheets in this program are the perfect complement to our 1-on-1 work together. I'll ask you to tackle different modules during different stages of our work together, so you'll be having career aha-moments even when we're not face-to-face.
Frequently Asked Questions
We'll meet for an hour over video chat. I'll ask you a lot of good questions, and it's your job to simply show up and be honest — about what matters to you, where you feel stuck, all of it.
You'll always feel prepared for our sessions because I'll send you videos, exercises, and worksheets before-hand. And at the end of each session, I'll assign you homework to help you keep momentum until we meet again.
Each month, you'll also be invited to a support call, where you can check in and ask questions.
Accountability is the thing that many people say gets them unstuck. So yes, there will be homework inbetween our sessions — the fun kind!
You'll be doing introspective, fun, brain-tickling exercises to help you get unstuck, which means you'll be having career aha-moments even when we're not face-to-face.
We'll meet twice a month — once for our 1-on-1 coaching session, plus a monthly support call where you can check-in and ask questions. The support call is an additional group call for my current clients and I always allow enough time to answer everyone's questions on each call.
A big part of getting unstuck is having enough time to let things integrate. We don't want to rush. This is a value-packed experience, and we'll pace things out so you maintain your momentum.
If you prefer to move at a faster pace, you can choose the bi-weekly option when you sign up, and complete the program in 3 months instead of 6.
You absolutely can! If you've failed to find the right career path on your own, the structure and accountability that 1-on-1 career coaching provides may be exactly what you need.
Plus, coaching with me is a pretty deep experience. I'll be asking you thought-provoking questions, helping you identify your blind spots, and even helping you navigate the emotional side of things. It'll take you way beyond what you've been able to do on your own.
About 1-2 hours a week. We'll have our 1-on-1 coaching sessions sprinkled throughout our journey, plus the monthly office hours Q&A calls. Plus, you'll be watching videos, completing worksheets and, eventually, taking action with specific bits of homework in the real world.
Towards the end of our work together, your time commitment may be more, as you'll be conducting informational interviews, applying for jobs, and interviewing — all great uses of your time once you have a clear career plan!
Just reach out. I'm happy to answer any questions you have. You can get in touch with me directly here.
This is for you if:
✔ You don't know what you want and you're going bonkers trying to figure it out.
✔ You want to really explore your options before you commit to making a change.
✔ You want help to challenge your assumptions, see your blind spots, and connect the dots.
✔ You're sick of feeling stuck, and you're ready to get this career thing figured out.
This is not for you if:
✖ You only want help with your resume and cover letter. We'll get to that, but only after we figure out what you want.
✖ You want to do a personality assessment. Assessments are fun, but they're also kind of, well, shallow — not nearly deep enough to base big life decisions on.
✖ You're not willing to explore your feelings.If you think career navigation is purely a rational process, you're nuts. It's largely emotional.
Still not sure if this is right for you? Just reach out. I'm happy to answer any questions you have. You can reach me directly here.
1. You'll receive an excited email from me welcoming you to this amazing process! And we'll set a time for our first coaching session.
2. Even before our first appointment, I'll send you some brain-tickling videos & worksheets to get you thinking about things and prepare for our first chat.
“Sarah helped me when I was going through a tough time figuring out what I wanted to do. Actually, I KNEW what I wanted to do, I just didn’t know where to start. Sarah is a calming spirit, which made opening up to her about my goals easy, and she gave me the tools to turn my talking into action. Keep fueling the fires of your clients’ dreams, Sarah. Thanks a million from the bottom of my heart.”
— Jody Brown
“I hated my job so much I panicked when I woke up knowing I had to go to the office. And when I had to cross a bridge that led to work. And when I sat at my desk. This was cell-deep hate — so deep I couldn’t see a way out. But with Sarah and I found a way out. You will too.”
— Jeff D'Hondt
“Combining her natural empathy with her strong guiding touch gives Sarah a truly unique edge when it come to career coaching. There is no tough love with this woman, just honest, powerful support. I would recommend her to anyone looking for clarity on the career front.”
— Liz Nutting
