Hey lovely,

I’m Marija – your go-to Career Coach helping you build a fulfilling & thriving career. I’m here to support you to design your dream career and rise as a courageous leader, but without the burnout and soulless hustling. I want you to feel successful and fulfilled in your career, in whichever way YOU define it. Not by societies, metrics, but in YOUR own way. 

Where it all started 

My biggest inspirations are my parents, who came to Australia from Macedonia with my brothers and nothing else. They’ve instilled work ethic, resilience and courage into me. They are the reason why I deeply believe that no goal is too big to achieve.

I’ve worked as a lawyer for six years and I pursued law with a passion for wanting to make a difference in this world. I got my dream job in a big commercial law firm and thought I’d made it, until I felt like something was missing.

A few years ago, I had a huge light bulb moment and realised working in a big corporate firm was not what I wanted to do for the rest of my life. I decided to quit my first job as a lawyer. This was scary, but this was the first step to me saying YES to myself and my dreams and was the beginning of me getting back into the driver’s seat of my life.

I quit my job with nothing else lined up (more on this on my podcast) and so the soul searching began.

I had time to myself and that time was a blessing. I started my podcast, The Raw Pod with the intention to share my journey navigating my life and career as a young lawyer and I also signed up to my dream life coaching course at the Beautiful You life Coaching Academy.

Oh, but I didn’t quit the law all together, I got really clear and intentional about how I wanted my next role to look like and I attracted exactly what I wanted. I now work as a lawyer for a company that aligns with my values and fits into my life and my business so well.

Fast forward… I now get to coach amazing millennial and Gen Z women and help them overcome self-limiting beliefs, build their dream career, become leaders and truly thrive.

What lights me up the most is empowering women to stop playing small and to recognise their gifts. I believe that every woman deserves to have a career that she loves because a woman that is in love with her career shows up as her best self in all other areas of her life.

My purpose is to help millennial and Gen Z women thrive, feel fulfilled, become leaders and make more money in their career.

Other than being a super driven type A woman and dreaming and creating big, I love nothing more than road trips with my boyfriend to the beach, singing at the top of our lungs and completely butchering the lyrics, snuggling up with Cardi (my adorable staffy pup) and walking to my parents house for an afternoon coffee and catch up.

Thanks for being here & I can’t wait to support you.

Have you been coasting along in a career that you’ve outgrown? 

I get it, it’s comfortable to stay and comforting knowing you have the security of your role. 

Perhaps you’ve been questioning a career change for some time, but haven’t made that decision yet being in fear of what that new path can look like. Can you relate? 

If this is you right now, ask yourself these questions: 

🤔 What’s staying in this role costing me? 
🤔 What am I losing by not making a decision? 
🤔 how am I holding myself back by staying? 

The truth is, the cycle of indecision will continue until you make A decision. 

If you’re wanting to make a change in your career but you’ve been paralysed with indecision, let’s change that.

I’m offering limited free 30 min Career Assessment calls where we’ll:

✨ look at what’s currently working for you in your career
✨ consider what’s not working for you
✨ assess whether there’s opportunity to create more from your current role or pivot into something that feels more aligned for you

By the end of our 30 mins together, you’ll have clarity on the next steps you want to take in your career that feel best for you.

The best way to build confidence is by taking action, even if you’re scared and don’t fully believe in yourself just yet. 

Often we don’t have confidence because we don’t have the evidence that we can achieve something. This comes up a lot as fear when we’re doing something for the first time. But how will you ever build evidence if you don’t take action? 🤷🏽‍♀️

Your action doesn’t have to be perfect, just start somewhere and build on it as you go. You’ll soon realise that you can in fact do the thing that you told yourself you couldn’t & the confidence will soon follow. 

Start today, take one step towards your goal even if the confidence is not there yet.
