"What`s your 30-second pitch — the one that makes someone say, `Yes, I want to work with you`?"
Most career changers don`t have a skills problem. They have a "how do I talk about this" problem.

On this week`s How to Get Ahead, Jess Burney breaks down the coaching exercise she runs with clients who are underselling themselves — teachers especially. "I just grade papers, I do lesson plans" becomes: you manage a whole ecosystem, you coordinate with stakeholders, you execute constantly.

"What`s your 30-second pitch — the one that makes someone say, `Yes, I want to work with you`?"

Jess is an executive career coach, consultant, and founder of Tailored Holistic Coaching, where confidence and strategy get built side by side.

"This was never going to be my life." Jess Burney`s first "no" as a teacher wasn`t really about her son`s field trip. It was about everything else.

On this week`s How to Get Ahead, she talks about the moment a principal told her she couldn`t take a day off for her own son`s school trip — and why that was the catalyst that made her start building a career she wouldn`t need permission to live.

"This was never going to be my life."

Jess is an executive career coach, consultant, and founder of Tailored Holistic Coaching — helping professionals pivot into work that actually fits the life they want, not just the schedule they`re stuck with.

Women in business are judged on performance and likeability. Men are not.

Skye van Heyzen, founder of Adaptive Apex, names the double standard plainly on this week`s How to Get Ahead — then gets into what to actually do with it: know who you are before the room decides for you.

"You need to understand who you are — what your non-negotiables are, what`s your ultimate no, and what`s your ultimate yes."

Because plenty of "yes" answers aren`t really choices. They`re fear of the label that comes with saying no.

Skye works with ambitious women in mid and senior roles — especially in male-dominated sectors — helping them step into their power without losing themselves in the process.
