Have you found yourself making decisions about your life and career from a place of shoulds?


  • I should stay at this job because it gives me a steady paycheck.

  • I should choose a career path that gives me stability.

  • I should be grateful I even have a job in this economy.


A young professional who has found career fulfillment

These "shoulds" often are messages we received as kids about what was acceptable, what success means, and what are caretakers valued (often it all comes down to safety).


Problems arise when our "shoulds" are in direct contrast with what we really want and we find ourselves settling for a mediocre career or worse, a career that makes us deeply unhappy.


As career coaches in Los Angeles, we work with many professionals who remain in their jobs due to fear, a desire for stability, or societal pressure regarding the expected definition of success in a city like Los Angeles.


Are you making decisions from a place of "should" or a place of "want" when it comes to your career?


Could you be allowing fear to be in the driver seat of your life?


If you’re struggling to make this shift, working with a career coach can help you navigate the uncertainty and build a career that feels right for you.


At Shinebright, we specialize in career coaching to help you get unstuck and identify what you want from your career. Together, we’ll identify your strengths and values, overcome limiting beliefs, and create a strategic plan for your career transition.


As you move through the coaching process, you’ll gain the confidence to make more intentional decisions that align with your goals and identify a path that truly resonates with you, leading to a more fulfilling professional life.
