CAREER COACH: TATIANA GRAHAM

As a coach, I connect most with clients ready to make a career transition. Whether you are trying to figure out a new career path, how to show up authentically in the workplace, or find new ways to embrace being an effective leader I am the coach ready to help you get to the next step of your journey.

 

Over my 20-year career in HR, I developed a love for learning about people, growing with them, and having compassion for all the things that make them unique. Fast forward to today and I have taken that same desire into coaching where I am passionate about helping you create safety, security, and room to be your most authentic self.

 

What does that look like?

 

I Think Outside The Box

​

• As a certified LEGO® Serious Play® facilitator I recognize that traditional talk methods of coaching may not be for everyone. Let’s play instead!

• Using hands-on thinking, prompts, and 3D LEGO® builds, we will activate different brain connections to reveal new insights, solve problems, and gain new perspectives.

• This coaching method works for all, it is perfect for both linear-analytical minds and “busy brains” who want to bypass traditional ways of thinking and tap into different cognitive processing.

 

I Believe In The Power Of Community

​

• I strongly believe we are not meant to suffer (or celebrate) alone. Society and old narratives will tell you there is shame in asking for help and needing support from those around you - I say we need to retire those old ways of thinking!

• As a coach, I will help you explore new ways of expanding your network, leaning into existing communities, and reclaiming the narrative about asking for help.  

 

I Support Women As They Embark On

Their Menopausal Journey

​

• Did you know that the average female spends 7-10 years in their menopausal journey? And for women of color, that timeline is ~3 years longer? That’s a big chunk of our lifetime and you bet that impacts your career!

• And to make matters worse, this topic is a hidden struggle. Workplaces, families, and society at large rarely discuss peri-menopause, menopause, or post-menopause. You don’t have to suffer in silence!

• I am on a mission to help women understand the physical, emotional, and psychological changes they may experience as they go through this journey. The reality is that former ways of working often don’t work anymore. As a coach, I will help you implement strategies, tools, and habits to help you successfully navigate this chapter from a place of empowerment.

 

Outside of coaching, you will find me spending time with family, leading community groups in the Portland metro area, and sculpting clay (it brings me so much joy!). You should also know I am from Switzerland and French is my native language, so if you hear an accent you know where it's from!
