THE PROBLEM

Pivoting Over 40 is Different

         Its a season of learning how to balance your ambition
​​​​​​​         with your capacity.  And that can be both exciting & exhausting.
In some ways you have SO MUCH
Years of experience
Years of expertise
Years of education
And that can feel exciting, empowering or overwhelming

In other ways you have SO MUCH LESS
Less energy
Less focus
Less time
And that can feel exciting, empowering or exhausting.

And it can be hard to reconcile the two.

Regardless of what has changed, positive or negative, some things have not.  You Still Have

The Fire to Impact Lives

And The Desire To Change The World

arrow_forward
That means moving beyond good intentions to moving with intentionality

arrow_forward
 That means having personal satisfaction not just professional success 

arrow_forward
 That means getting clearer on exactly what your building 

arrow_forward
 That means less throwing spaghetti at the wall to being strategically 

If you KNOW you are called for more & are committed to finishing, not just starting, your assignment, Pivot School is for you.

    OUR PHILOSPHY 

The World Doesn't Change Because People Care.

​​​​​​​It Changes When the People Who Care Have the Capacity to Create Real Solutions for the Things They Care Most About


Care is Abundant Among Helping Professionals
They already care deeply.  They are already competent,  They don't need to be convinced to do the work.

But Care Without Capacity Turns Into Sacrifce
When you care deeply but lack the resources to solve the problems you care about you often resort to self sacrifice.   Working more, taking on more, charging less.

We can't continue solve more people problems by continually sacrificing the humans committed to solving them.  

Self sacrifice Turns Into Survival Mode
When your surviving, even successfully, the capacity required to creatively solve complex issues is consumed with dealing with the immediate and urgent vs the priority.

Pivot School is the bridge between practitioner and becoming an industry leading pioneer, showing you how to combine design principles & your expertise to change the world.

Design Creates Capacity.
We show experts how to design the solutions so their impact isn't dependent entirely upon their personal capacity.

CLIENT TESTIMONIAL

WHY OUR CLIENTS LOVE US

format_quote
Before working with LaChelle, I had shut down my primary coaching programs and was working on developing a refined curriculum for a program I'd historically had a hard time positioning, but also most loved and most wanted to be known for. It was a lot of facing hard truths and digesting reality to get to a place where I was open to the idea of creating something that was both exciting and authentic for me AND would really deliver for my clients. Luckily, LaChelle has a background in therapy so she was very equipped to handle all the resistance and difficult emotions that came up for me through the process.
​​​​​​​

Today, it feels really good to look ahead to the future of my business with enthusiasm for where I am now focused. I have direction and drive that I haven't felt in a long time, and I believe in what I'm doing. In the past, I've joined coaching programs where I've been coached out of doing what felt best and right for me, and this is the first time I've received the exact right balance of best practices with what I truly feel called to do. LaChelle does an exceptional job of holding your ass to the fire where it matters, and trusting you to guide yourself through your decisions. She loves program design like no one I've ever met before, but more than anything she loves helping you answer the call of what you're most passionate about doing with your life, expertise, and therefore business.

OUR APPROACH

WHY WE'RE DIFFERENT

We know you have options.  Here's when we are the best one for you.  

When You Need An Architect

REASON #1
Many learning environments teach you a lot of information that prepares you for very little. We understand what it takes to ensure your next chapter creates what you deeply desire - the life you've been longing for - both the internal satisfaction and the external success.  

When You Want Clear Instructions

REASON #2
Most education, be it formal institutions or free online info have gaps in instruction.  We understand our students.  Over 40 with fluctuating schedules and changing capacity in a season of change leads to decision fatigue.  We provide step by step instruction with primary purpose or reducing cognative overload.

When You Need Structure

REASON #3
Most people do not have the personality to support big personalities or high achievers.  We do.  We provide direct feedback, high accountability minus any mean girl energy.  We challenge your thinking, address conflicting ideas and encourage you to think about you not just your mission. 

When You Have Mixed Emotions

REASON #4
Most programs include mindset support but what they provide isn't very effective.  We understand pivoting is vulnerable, filled with uncertainty, changes and growth.  Our coaches are trained professionals, from licensed mental health therapist to certified coaches - who have the skill to ease feelings of fear.

CLIENT TESTIMONIALS

"I was at a very confusing, low point, and we decided to do some coaching. Working with LaChelle is different than working with any other coach I have worked with in the past, because not only does she not allow me to get away with gaslighting myself into complacency, she always has an actionable step for me to take to get back on the right path. Her ability to reframe things for me is a huge game changer and I'm getting so much clarity and momentum every time we speak."

"I had been curious about transitioning into the coaching space for awhile. Working with Lachelle helped me to not only get clarity about what could be possible, but also provided me with a road map to get there.  She challenged me to "dream bigger," and provided support which helped me to push through some of the inner resistance and self-doubt I was experiencing with regards to entering the coaching space.  She also very practically helped me get more clarity with a strategy that aligns with my vision.  Working with LaChelle is pure gold."
