Real Clarity. Bold Moves. A Career That Lets You Shine.
A lot of people hit a point where their job just doesn’t excite them anymore—or maybe it never really did. It’s easy to start wondering if it’s too late to make a change or worry about taking the wrong step.
That uncertainty can be exhausting. It chips away at your confidence, leaves you second-guessing every decision, and makes the future feel foggy at best. But here’s the good news: there’s another way. At Shinebright, our career planning services offer clarity, support, and a path forward that’s tailored to you. Let’s figure it out—together.
You Don’t Have to Map Out Your Career Alone
Maybe you’ve spent years climbing a ladder only to realize it’s leaning against the wrong wall. Or maybe you’ve always known what lights you up—but haven’t had the time, space, or support to fully explore these possibilities.
No matter where you’re starting from, career planning is a powerful tool to help you reconnect with your values and take meaningful steps forward tailored to your unique path.
At Shinebright, we walk alongside you with empathy and encouragement. This isn’t about following someone else’s formula—it’s about discovering what’s right for you. Through reflection, insight, and action, we help you build a career path that feels fulfilling, aligned, and true to your story.
What's Included With Career Planning Services?
Career planning is more than choosing a job—it’s about creating a future that feels right for you. That’s why our career planning services are designed to support your entire journey—from reflection to execution.
Here’s what our career planning services include:
1. Clarity Around Your Passions and Purpose
Before we talk about jobs or industries, we help you reflect. What excites you? What gives you energy? Through guided introspection and thoughtful conversations, we help you uncover the patterns, interests, and values that define your sense of purpose.
You’ll walk away with deeper self-awareness and a clearer understanding of what fulfilling work really looks like for you.
2. Strengths-Based Skills Mapping
You already have the strengths—some you already know, and others just waiting to be recognized. We help you identify what you’re naturally great at, where you shine, and how those strengths can transfer across roles or industries.
Together, we also explore skills gaps and make a plan to build the experience or training you need—without overwhelm.
3. Step-by-Step Action Planning
Once you’ve gained clarity and identified your direction, it’s time to map it out. We co-create an actionable roadmap with realistic, motivating goals that lead you toward your desired future. No lofty jargon or rigid systems—just small, clear steps that build momentum and confidence.
Each step is tailored to your needs, energy levels, and timeline. Progress becomes doable—and even exciting.
4. Coaching Support for the Job Search and Beyond
Career planning doesn’t end when you decide on a direction. From resume development (yes, we believe resumes are an art form) to preparing for interviews or networking conversations, we’ve got your back.
You’ll receive personalized coaching and tools to approach the job search with clarity, authenticity, and confidence. This is more than a career change—it’s a transformation.
Meet our amazing, caring and professional team of associates with the skills, experience and perspective to help you.

Client Success Stories
Do it. Seriously. Whether you're struggling to find your purpose in life or if you just need someone to talk to. Go for it. I had the pleasure of working with Shannon and I have nothing but awesome things to say about her. Unlike most situations where it may feel like there is a power distance, it felt like I was talking to a friend, somebody that believes in me, and someone who truly cares about me. That's what it's all about. I can easily say, after the nine weeks of working with her, I feel better than I've ever felt before. The beauty of it all is that the tools we were able to develop over the program, are things I'll be sharpening and using the rest of my life - and that excites the heck out of me!

" Working with Shannon at Shinebright is one of the best professional decisions I have made. I reached out to Shinebright after being out of the workforce for 7 years, and honestly didn't know where to begin. Like many moms, I had lost my sense of identity after being home with young children for so long. Shannon's kindness, wisdom, and insight in helping me discover my potential and talents blew me away. For the first time, I learned to search for inspiration within myself, and I gained a renewed sense of confidence and clarity in my path to starting my career. Shannon was quick to identify what I needed to succeed in the career path I chose, what my strengths are, and helped me understand what keeps me interested and engaged in the work I do. None of this would have happened without the guidance, tools and resources she had provided me. I feel immense gratitude toward her for all she has helped me discover during our sessions. And for the first time in a long time, I feel ready to step into my light and thrive. Thank you, Shannon and Shinebright! "

"I have nothing but incredibly positive things to say about Meike and the Shinebright process, program and objectives. Meike is deeply talented at what she does and was insightful in her guidance, perspective and support throughout our time working together. Overall, I would recommend this program to anyone - not just those exclusively interested in a career change or pivot - as it ultimately helps you understand yourself both personally and professionally on a much deeper level that will pay dividends in numerous aspects of your life, including your current, prospective or future career.
​
Working with Shinebright gave me the following: 1) a better understanding of myself, how I operate, my strengths and what intrinsically motivates me, 2) a detailed look and exploration in various career paths that help support those strengths (including a look into how it fit into my current professionally role) and 3) a reasoned, thoughtful system to approach advancing in your current career or moving into a new one. There is no magic formula to finding a new job/the right career, however, the tools it provided me will last well beyond the several weeks I spent working with Meike and will undoubtedly assist in the process of my professional development and circumstance moving forward."
