Hi there! I’m Rachel, the founder of Rethink Nine to Five. I work with professionals who want to confidently create a career that they love. They want to feel confident and take action to have a career that has flexibility, authenticity, and balance. They are tired of working in a job that doesn’t align with their passions and doesn’t allow the flexibility to live a full and dynamic life. They want to feel confident and inspired by knowing what their next step should be, knowing how to get there, and enjoying the journey again.
For more than 9 years, I climbed the corporate ladder as a tax manager at a public accounting firm. I met so many people that were burnt out, uninspired, and just surviving the workweek. I enjoyed helping people create careers that worked for them and am a strong believer in confidently speaking up for what you want. Personally, I had spoken up and created a work balance that fit my life by negotiating a flexible work arrangement as well as a substantial raise. But I still had this nagging feeling that I was meant to do more. Can you relate?
I realized that having work balance is just one piece of having a thriving career; you need to feel passionate about your purpose and do work that fits in with your unique strengths and values. Because of this, I realized that my passions and strengths would be better utilized as a career and leadership coach instead of filing tax returns. I have a Bachelor in Accounting, passed the CPA exam, and started my coaching certification program with iPEC.
Whether you want to make your current job better, transition to a new career, or launch your own business, I look forward to helping you take confident action to get closer to your ideal career. I will answer your questions and help you create the steps that you need to create a career that you love.
