Discover an approach
that will bring you purpose and meaning beyond paycheck and titles.
Hi there! I’m Nicholas Whitaker.
I’m an intentional life coach for mid-life corporate professionals who are done with feeling stuck, overworked, undermined and under-appreciated.
Through coaching and mentoring, you’ll discover the confidence that was there all along.
The one that was crushed by an unfair system.
You’ll find a sense of balance and purpose and a new approach to work, not as the end goal, but as a means to an end.
I blend trauma-informed coaching developed through years of training and personal experience, with Positive Psychology and research backed frameworks to get you moving forward in the right direction.
I blend Buddhist principles with Stoic philosophy to offer you new perspective.
Don’t worry if these are foreign ideas to you.
They’ll open up different ways of processing what’s been happening, what’s happening now, and what can be.
I’ve seen firsthand the harm
that today’s corporate culture inflicts on people.
I was able to recover and pivot quickly because I had already done a lot of the hard work to figure out what I wanted to do “after.”
After I had lasted as long as I could in high-pressure, stressful, and chaotic workplaces, too far away from any actual impact, but trapped in the golden handcuffs.
I still gave it all I could in my day job, but I also prepared.
I worked to clarify my vision for the kind of impact I wanted to have in this world, and I built a roadmap to get there.
I can coach you to do the same!
Weeks before I got laid off I had just updated my 5 year plan for the millionth time. That’s about how long I figured I could last in that environment.
How much longer can you?
