Let's get you two steps forward.

Explore all the possibilities - small, big or wherever you want to go.​​​

It all starts with an Unfiltered Career Chat.
(which you can request below)

This is where you’ll vent, we’ll exchange corporate horror stories, and talk about how you really want to feel about your career. 

 

From there, I’ll suggest one of three paths forward:

  • Find Your Way if you’re lost and need clarity

  • Go The Distance if you’re tackling something big and want a teammate

  • Get Back On Track if you know the goal but can’t seem to do it alone

Frequently Asked Questions

?

I've tried career coaching before. How is this different?

I’m the career coach you’d get if you combined the precision of a financial planner with the grit of an athletic coach running laps alongside you. Depending on the route you need, I take the first step with you, send introduction messages to my network, and stick by you till you get-er-done. Clients say I’m aggressively helpful, supportive to a fault, and action-oriented because that’s the only way to get visible, tangible results.

What exactly is an Unfiltered Career Chat?

It’s a 1-hour conversation where we get real about what’s working (and not working) in your career. This chat is for experienced professionals who’ve checked all the boxes but still feel like something’s missing and you’re frustrated that you’re in this position at this stage of life. 

 

This isn’t a “gotcha” sales call. It’s a chance for you to talk through your career crossroads with someone who’s been there — and to see if my coaching approach feels like a fit.

What if I'm not ready to change jobs yet?

That’s totally fine. Many people come to me just wanting clarity before making any big moves. Others are risk-adverse and need a plan before making any changes. I’m here to remind you that meaningful work that aligns with your values (not just your job title) doesn’t always come from a big pivot.

Meet your Coach

I’m Lana Melnichuk, a career coach who helps experienced professionals rediscover meaning in their work and build careers that actually fit their values. I know what it’s like to do everything “right” — climb the ladder, collect the titles, and still wake up with an overpowering sense of dread. I’ve been there, and I’ve learned that success without alignment leaves you feeling burnt out and furiously alone.

 

Now, through my Unfiltered Career Chats and coaching programs, I help people get clear on what’s no longer working and make well-informed pivots toward work that feels purposeful again. My approach is collaborative, candid, and holds you accountable because having a good day at work really matters.
