You've come to the right place if you...

compare yourself to others and wonder if something is wrong with you

are tired from under-performance and procrastination (and beating yourself up for it!)

shy away from speaking up for the things you want in your life, relationships, and career

often feel that you don't "fit in" and strive to find your tribe

want to make the world a better place but don't believe you are talented enough

feel frustrated because your goals and dreams seem impossibly far away

And yet, deep inside, you know you are capable of so much more!
Svetlana Sereda Drive Clarity (2) (1)

I am Svetlana Sereda, a certified life and career coach. 

As an introvert, I understand that putting yourself out there can be scary. I've been in your shoes (and still am sometimes!) As a coach, I know the world needs what you have to offer. 

Through coaching, you can build self-trust, connect to your purpose, focus on your talents, and start living more intentionally.

Step by step, you'll learn how to overcome procrastination and self-doubt, stop beating yourself up and become your own best friend, cheerleader, and supporter.

I would be honored to be your guide.

testimonials

"Svetlana approaches every project with thoughtfulness and thoroughness and anticipates and addresses every possible problem ahead of time. Svetlana has also been instrumental in helping our team move into the virtual space by researching and piloting various techniques to engage Northeastern learners. Her efforts to embrace and seek opportunities to push herself out of her comfort zone, master new skills, and expand her knowledge continue to impress and inspire me. She is an engaging presenter, a focused coach, and an irreplaceable member of the Career Design team."
- Anne Grieves, Career Coach at Northeastern University, Career Design
"'Incredibly efficient' is the phrase that comes to mind when I think about Svetlana. I had the absolute pleasure of working with Svetlana for the past year at Northeastern University, collaborating on several projects throughout the Academic Year. Svetlana expertly filled the role of Career Design Intern with innovation, commitment, resourcefulness, and adaptability. Svetlana’s ability to juggle multiple projects was unlike any I’ve seen before and made a difference in the productivity level of our team. No matter how tense a project is, Svetlana always managed to deliver. I enjoyed working with Svetlana and learned so much from her. Svetlana would be an asset to any team. "
- Diana Ghattas-Antony, M.Ed, Assistant Director at Northeastern University
"I had the absolute pleasure of working with Svetlana on Northeastern University's Career Design team. She participated in our intensive Internship program designed for people career transitioning or building skills as Career Advisors. Calling Svetlana an 'Intern" would do no justice to the incredible team member and advisor she has become in the past year. Svetlana is skilled at leveraging her existing counseling experience to address the needs of our students and identify gaps where the team can grow. She facilitated professional development trainings for our team and designed customized workshops for student populations using the CliftonStrengths Assessment. She was always the first person to step up when you need help and is one of the most reliable people I've ever met. She will be a great addition to any team! "
