Do you feel unhappy about work, and want to do work that feels good and matters to you?

This call is for people who want to move from a work situation that—kinda, sorta, or totally sucks—to doing work they love and that matters to them.

It's a chance to take a step back, evaluate your current situation, and explore your options—with someone who isn't a friend or family member and who specializes in work-related situation.

This assessment call is for people who are in an unsatisfying work situation. For instance, maybe you can relate to any of these situations:

Ugh.

You get up from your chair, feeling shell-shocked after the “conversation” you just had with your boss (does being demeaned and belittled count as a conversation?!?). It seems your friends were right: you really are in an abusive relationship—with your work. And the idea of leaving that relationship scares the crap out of you.

You’re really competent and everyone knows it!

Which should be a good thing… except Sally just roped you into giving her presentation tomorrow and Ted treats you like his personal research assistant. How on earth are you supposed to take care of yourself—let alone (finally!) write your book—when everyone wants your help all the damn time?

Yawn...

You’re finishing your morning smoothie while pondering how to spend the rest of the day. Maybe another Yoga class? Anything but spending another day having inane conversations with your retired friends at the pool. You're grateful for your good financial situation, but whatever happened to your drive and sense of purpose? There must be more to life than this!

Woohoo, you’ve made it!

You’re looking at your calendar and your stomach sinks. You finally have more clients than you can handle. Which is great… once you figure out how to have a full client load and something resembling a life. You are so overwhelmed that you hardly remember why you started doing this work—that used to be so dear to your heart—in the first place.

Sigh.

It is midnight. You’re still at work. Again. Your neck is hurting from sitting at your desk all day. Again. If you are honest with yourself, you’ve had doubts about becoming a lawyer all along. But you have no idea how to walk away from this job and its golden handcuffs … before it destroys your health and relationship.

If any of these shitty work situations resonates with you—or if you have your own unsatisfying work situation to add to that collection—I might be able to help you.

Hi, if we haven't met before, I'm Dr. Louise Schriewer. I used to be a high-paid lawyer in Germany when I had a sobering insight: While sitting in a dentist chair and getting a root canal, I realized I preferred this experience to being in the office. Oof. 

It took me a while to muster up the courage to leave my legal career, but I eventually moved to the US to be with the love of my life, and start my own business.

Since then, I have helped people from six continents and many different cultures.

These people were from various professional backgrounds, including: academics, accountants, actors, attorneys, business owners, CEOs of small companies, medical doctors, police officers, pilots, personal assistants, secretaries, school teachers, scientists, tech professionals, therapists, and writers.

I have also worked with people who are on parental leave, retired or semi-retired, or going through a career transition.

While my approach can work across cultures and industries and for people in quite different situations, it isn’t a fit for everyone.

More importantly, it’s not a fit for people whose main life goal is to gain power, follow tradition, or make the most amount of money possible.

I help people who want to find work that matters to them, and that’s a fundamentally different motivation and approach to life. If that's what drives you, we might get along great!

This assessment call works best if you are:  

• Already aware that internal “stuff” can make it harder to act on what you want to do—and be willing to work through that stuff with help.
• Willing to deal with the uncomfortable feelings that often come up when things change for the better.
• Open to things like meditation or energy work. (No previous experience is required.)

You also need to understand that this assessment call is not mental health advice. Please contact a mental health professional if you are experiencing mental health issues.

I get along particularly well with people who can relate to these situations:

• You want to order something online and your heart lights up when you realize you can order it from a B-Corp or another small, ethical business—instead of from Amazon.
• You see Elon Musk performing what is clearly a Hitler Salute on stage—and you burn with the rage of 1000 dying suns upon seeing people make excuses for that.
• You watch a movie and can’t help but root for the underdog.
• You are at a social gathering where people talk about their drive for prestige or money and barely manage to suppress a yawn—seriously, don’t these people have anything better to do with their time?

If what I’ve written so far resonates with you, I'd love to connect and help you explore what's possible for you!
