Laura Simms

I help high-achieving professionals make fulfilling and financially responsible career changes without chaos, guesswork, or relying on fleeting inspiration. For 15 years, I’ve worked with people who look successful on paper but feel a quiet tension underneath it all: Is this really it? They’ve outgrown their roles, outpaced the advice around them, and can’t afford to make a reckless move. They want meaningful work that fits who they’ve become, not who they were when they started. My work blends deep personal clarity with strategic, methodical career discernment. I teach clients how to identify the roles, environments, and paths where they will thrive, not just survive. No personality quizzes. No résumé bandaids. No “follow your passion” clichés. Just a clear, grounded method (the proprietary WHOLE Method) for making one of the most important decisions of their lives. I’m the founder of Your Career Homecoming, a program trusted by 400+ clients and known for helping high performers break out of golden handcuffs, make aligned choices, and move into work that feels like a true fit. Clients come to me when: - The old ways of choosing no longer work - They’ve consulted all the usual resources and are still stuck (career coaching and therapy, included) - They want meaningful work and financial stability - They need a structured, supportive process, not a pep talk - They’re ready to stop circling the same questions and make a confident decision If you're navigating a major career crossroads and want a trusted partner who brings both strategic clarity and deep mentorship, I’m here to help you build a path that feels responsible and inspiring.
