Juliette Dyke

Hi, I’m Juliette, an accredited career coach based in Brighton. I help women who feel stuck, unfulfilled or unsure about what they want next to make confident career changes and find work that fits their strengths, values and life.

You might know that your current career isn’t working for you anymore, but have no idea what you want to do instead. Or perhaps you’ve had a career break, become a parent or reached a point where the priorities that once shaped your career have changed.

My approach is practical, supportive and personal. I look at you as a whole person – not just your CV or job title – and explore what you want from both your work and your life. Together, we can identify your strengths, values and priorities, explore potential career options and work out what could be a better fit.

Coaching can also help you overcome the self-doubt, fear and overthinking that can make career change feel so difficult. Rather than staying stuck in the same cycle, we'll focus on what you can do next and create a realistic plan for moving forward.

Who is career coaching for?

I work with women at different stages of their careers, including those in their 30s, 40s and 50s. My clients have come from a wide range of professional backgrounds, including marketing, HR, project management, academia, events, design and strategy.

Some are still in full-time employment, some are considering a complete career change, and others are returning to work after a career break. What they have in common is a feeling that something needs to change – whether that's finding a more fulfilling career, rebuilding confidence, or creating work that fits better with the life they want to lead.

Why work with me?

I've been through career change myself, so I understand how difficult it can be to leave behind something that looks perfectly good on paper when it no longer feels right.

After 14 years working in advertising, marketing, TV production and journalism in London, I reached a point where I felt like a square peg in a round hole. I wanted to feel more fulfilled and valued in my work, but wasn't sure what the answer was.

Working with a coach helped me understand my strengths and values, rebuild my confidence and see possibilities I couldn't see on my own. That experience ultimately led me to retrain as a career coach, and I've now spent more than 10 years helping other women navigate their own career changes and transitions.

I'm an Association for Coaching Accredited Coach, licensed Firework Career Coach and Certified Positive Psychology Practitioner, with additional training in counselling skills and parental transition coaching.

How I work

I work with clients across the UK online via Google Meet, including clients in Brighton and the surrounding area.

My aim isn't to tell you what career you should choose. Instead, I'll help you understand yourself better, explore your options and make decisions that feel right for you – then turn those decisions into practical action.

Does any of this sound familiar?

• I know I don't want to stay in my current job, but I have no idea what I want to do instead.
• I feel stuck and keep going round in circles trying to work out what my next career move should be.
• I've lost confidence in myself and I'm not sure what I have to offer anymore.
• I want a career that feels more meaningful, but I don't know what that looks like for me.
• I'm considering a career change, but I'm worried about making the wrong decision.
• I've had a career break or become a parent, and I'm not sure what I want my working life to look like now.
• I have lots of ideas about what I could do, but I feel overwhelmed and don't know where to start.
• I know something needs to change, but I keep putting it off because I don't feel ready.

If you're nodding along to any of these, you're in the right place. Coaching can help you step back from the noise, understand what you really want, explore your options and start making a practical plan for what's next.

HOW I WORK

My coaching is practical, supportive and tailored to you. There isn't a one-size-fits-all approach – we'll focus on what you need to make progress with your career.

I use the Firework Career Coaching framework to help you move from feeling stuck or uncertain towards a career direction that feels right for you, and a practical plan for making it happen.

We typically work through three stages:

Explore:

We'll look at your strengths, values, interests, experience and priorities, as well as what you want from your life outside work. This helps you understand what's important to you and what a fulfilling career might look like.

Dream:

We'll explore potential career directions and possibilities, without expecting you to have the answer from the outset. Together, we'll identify options that could be a good fit and consider what's realistic and worth exploring further.

Discover:

Once you've identified a direction you want to pursue, we'll turn it into action. This might include researching roles or industries, building your confidence, developing your professional story, networking, updating your CV or LinkedIn profile, preparing for interviews or creating a practical career-change plan.

The full Firework programme is usually delivered over 12 sessions, with sessions typically taking place fortnightly. However, the pace and focus can be adapted to suit you.

THE FIREWORK FOUNDATION SESSION

If you're not ready to commit to a longer coaching programme, you can start with a 90-minute Firework Foundation Session (£195).

This is a focused session designed to help you make meaningful progress with a specific career question or challenge. You'll complete some pre-session exercises and we'll use our time together to explore what's really going on, identify your priorities and agree practical next steps.

If you decide to continue with my longer Firework coaching programme within 14 days, the £195 Foundation Session fee can be deducted from the programme cost.

READY TO EXPLORE COACHING?

If you're wondering whether coaching could help, start with a free 20-minute Career Breakthrough Call.

It's a chance to tell me a little about where you are now, what you'd like to change and what you're hoping to get from coaching. You can ask any questions you have and we'll see whether working together feels like a good fit.

There's no pressure to commit – it's simply a conversation to help you decide what your next step could be.

I work with clients across the UK online via Goolge Meet, with sessions available Monday–Friday.

Alongside career change coaching, I also offer return-to-work coaching for women after maternity leave or a career break, helping you work out what you want from this next stage and make a confident plan for moving forward.
