What we'll do

Wild Ascent is the program I wish I'd had in my own big career transitions, and the one I hear women asking for now. In this 6-week group coaching and peer-support program, you'll: 

 

 

✨ Regroup as we share our collective grief, hope and purpose.

 

✨ Re-imagine your work and life, in an inspiring community.

 

✨ Rise up to take concrete steps to live that vision and still put money in the bank.   

 

 

The group will be guided by me, Lisa Robbins-Garland, an ICF-accredited coach. But the magic comes from the community we build from our collective experience and skills, I'm excited for what you will bring!

 

 

Next cohort begins April 2025, with future cohorts soon after.

Senior and mid-career women, trans women and non-binary people craving community as they figure out what’s next. For those that have lost their job, at risk of losing their job or feel called to change roles. Bring your openness, thoughtfulness, playfulness, passion and purpose.

How

This 6-week program meets virtually, with options to stay in community afterwards. In groups of 8-10 amazing women, you'll: use tools that have made life transitions easier for tons of people I work with; take what you learned deeper and get inspired by others on weekly group calls, and practice playful accountability in our group chat with peer support.  Plus extras like co-working to do the things you've been avoiding with ease. 

Women's Groups say...

In the midst of a whole lot of uncertainty, isolation and exhaustion I've found a new sense of belonging that I know I can take anywhere with me. Lisa guided us, but we ended up holding space for one another.

 

It feels amazing to know other women on such a deep level and I'm excited to see how each of them change the world next.” 

Coaching Clients say...

Lisa was the coach that I needed when I hit a career crossroads! Lisa’s superpower is to listen deeply, meet you where you are, and guide you to understand a more honest version of yourself. She brought energy, thoughtfulness, compassion, and humor to each of our sessions and I always left feeling more confident about the road ahead. I’m really excited about my new career trajectory that didn’t seem possible before working with Lisa. I’m so thankful that we worked together!”

The exact start dates and weekly call times will be agreed by the people signed up to each cohort. The next cohort is scheduled to begin late April. Secure your spot now to get on the next cohort.

How personalized is this group coaching journey?

Each individual and group is unique. While tools, resources and sessions in Wild Ascent draw on hundreds of hours of experience and research, we’ll work together to tailor this to your needs. 

What will a typical week look like?

Each of the six weeks will be a journey of individual reflection and guided exercises, and a group coaching session with follow-up support. Imagine starting the week with an exercise to create a clear vision for this next chapter, feeling inspired in your weekly group call, and taking away concrete actions we’ll check-in on during the week. 

To sum up, each week we'll:

  • Use tools that have made life and career transitions easier for tons of people I work with (and for me!)
  • Take what you learned a level deeper, share and learn from others' experiences on our group calls.
  • Practice intentional follow-up and playful accountability via our group chat, one-to-one calls or peer support.

Plus plenty of other goodies, like co-working options, where you can tap into a wider community, work and laugh together, do the hard things you've been avoiding with more ease. We all bring valuable experience to the group, what do you want to see? What can you bring? 

What are the focus areas?

This specially curated program will help you: refresh your vision for your life and career, stay grounded during times of change, and design concrete actions to move towards what you want.  My goal is for everyone to walk away knowing what they want next and confidently take the actions they need to get there. Over the 6-week journey, you'll:

  • Create a clear vision for what you want
  • Ground yourself in what's most important to you now
  • Learn to manage the critical voices within that say you can't
  • Strengthen your confidence and trust in yourself
  • Design and take concrete steps to bring that vision to life
  • Plan for how to stay motivated and connected to resources

And you can expect practical co-working and skill-building sessions that draw from the community we build, e.g. LinkedIn training, recruiter tips, access to peer groups etc. We each have something to offer to this group.

How are the group sessions conducted?

Each week, you will gather virtually in a group session to share reflections, inspire and cheer each other on. I will listen, guide and compassionately coach you to turn learning into action. 

What happens if I miss a call?

We will design an appropriate way to help you catch up. This could be a limited time recording or peer call, depending on the week. Please make as many of the calls as you can, and where life happens, we’ll figure it out. 

What is the time commitment?

This is your journey, you get to own and decide how you will invest your time. The more you dive in, the closer you will be to living the life and career you want and creating the lasting connections to help you move forward. Spots are limited, so please commit to the weekly exercises, weekly calls and ongoing discussions. 

What happens after the 6-week program ends?

You will choose how you want to continue to engage in the community, with options that will co-designed. There will be new opportunities to engage and deepen, including priority spots on in-person retreats, individual coaching top-ups and future offerings. 

Are these discussions confidential?

Yes, trust is the foundation of our work. All community members will be asked to keep what’s shared confidential. As an ICF-accredited coach, I will hold confidentiality in accordance with the International Coaching Federation (ICF) Code of Ethics

What if I feel the group coaching isn’t working for me? 

Open communication is central to the program. If you ever feel things aren’t progressing as you had hoped, I'm committed to addressing your concerns and adapting the approach, or discussing alternative options. 

What if I can no longer attend?

If you can no longer join the cohort before it begins, then let’s discuss options as soon as possible. You may be able to join a later cohort. Refunds may be given if an alternate can replace you within a reasonable time period before the cohort begins. 

What other benefits come with the program?

In addition to tools that help you gain a clearer purpose and get into action, I will tailor other resources for the community, including: LinkedIn training, recruiter tips, resources around transitioning sectors or starting new businesses. The experience and wisdom you and others bring will also offer opportunities and resources.
