what's actually keeping you stuck
It's not always the most qualified woman in the room who gets promoted. It's the one who knows how to position her value in the way this industry rewards.
This is a solvable problem. And the solution has nothing to do with the market, the timing, or how good your boss is.
It has everything to do with three specific things almost no one in this industry teaches — because they don't have the insider strategy or they are looking out for the company's best interest, not yours.
This Strategy Hour is where you find out which area(s) are holding you back from the career growth you desire.
all the details
In less than 90 minutes you'll diagnose:
✓ The difference between "good enough" and a real career filter — and why what you've been calling "clear direction" probably isn't
✓ Why your efforts to be recognized hasn't been working — and how decisions about your career actually get made in the rooms you're not in
✓ The one move you're not making this week that's quietly costing you the role you've already earned
✓ The unifying skill underneath all three gaps — that most people are sleeping on and won't just help you with your current goal, it can even protect your career from being taken by AI
At the end of the session, I'll share how we work together inside The Right Move Protocol™ — my six-month coaching program for women in pharma and biotech who are ready to act on what they diagnosed.
This is for you if:
You're a woman in pharma or biotech at the Principal Scientist, Manager, Associate Director, or Director level — and something feels off. You're undervalued, underleveraged, or unclear on what comes next.
You've done everything right — the degrees, the results, the extra work — and you're still not where you expected to be by now
You're tired of generic career advice that wasn't built for this industry, this leadership, or this market.
You're ready to do an honest diagnosis — not to be sold a fix before you know what's broken.
You're looking for resume tips, LinkedIn hacks, or interview scripts
You want to be told what to do without doing the diagnostic work yourself.
You're early in your career and still building foundational experience
This is not for you if:
You're exploring pharma roles but don't work in pharma or biotech yet.
I spent over a decade inside Pharma and Biotech — at AstraZeneca, Human Genome Sciences, and Emergent BioSolutions — before leaving to build the coaching practice I wished had existed when she was navigating these same decisions myself.
I hold a Master's in Organizational Psychology and has spent six years coaching women across Clinical, Regulatory, R&D, Quality, and Operations, virtually every part of the industry.... build the meaningful career they always wanted but couldn't quite identify or make happen.
I am the founder of Your Worthy Career, host of the Your Worthy Career podcast, and best-selling author of Your Worthy Career: A Science-Backed Method to Build a Meaningful Career in Pharma and Biotech. Her work has been featured in Forbes, AWIS, and BioSpace.
I was the person HR called in to coach new and struggling leaders — and the person leaders trusted to share the truth - good and bad. My work is built on what I heard in those rooms.
I am the only recognized career and leadership coach working exclusively with women in Pharma and Biotech and I am here to help you.
