"I was stuck in a vicious cycle of burnout and negative thoughts. Michaela coached me how to remind myself of my strengths while letting go of the past without suppressing my feelings. We are now working on a first job application together. Her input, as per usual, GOLDEN. I feel hopeful and energetic again. Thank you, Michaela!"

A frustrating job and a toxic working environment can easily burn you out

Did you know that your boss is the person who has the biggest impact on your mental health?*

You have a job that looks great on paper. A position you worked hard for.
But the stress and the frustration you experience everyday? - Does not feel healthy anymore!

​And during another sleepless night you are asking yourself

"Is this how my life is supposed to be?"​​

You think you have tried everything already. You've talked to your manager. You went to HR.

You told yourself "Maybe next quarter will get better...".

 

But nothing changed. And let's face it:

"Just quit!" is not an option!

No, what you need is the right strategy for a change.

Without risking your current position.

Don't wait until this job is ruining your health!

*: This was reported by 69% of employees in a study done by the UKG Workforce institute in 2022 over 3'400 people in 10 countries worldwide.

You simply want to be happy at work and have a job that fulfills you.

You have realized:

If you don't take responsibility for your career and your life, nobody else will!

However...
 

You are not sure what else you are actually looking for? You have not created a job application since ages and have no clue what really matters in 2026? You fear ending up in the same situation - just with a different logo on your laptop?

But what you simply want is

  • A job you look forward to each morning

  • Work that feels meaningful, not draining

  • A manageable workload that doesn’t force you to sacrifice your evenings or health

  • A team where you feel safe, valued and understood

  • A manager who supports your growth instead of limiting it

  • A role where you can shine, grow and see a real perspective

  • An employer whose values and ambitions finally match yours

Feeling like you’re finally in the right place!

And imagine you would have the strategy, tools and clarity to get exactly that!

"It is incredible how your workshop completely changed my mindset for the better. I am really grateful for the simple yet powerful knowledge you shared with us! Thank you, Michaela!"

Hi, I am Michaela Kettner!

I am a certified NLP Practitioner, educated public speaker and Career Development Coach for private clients, which means that I give you completely independent objective advice for your career - as I am not on the payroll of your employer.
 

I can look back on an international 10-years career in the Corporate world, where I always successfully changed jobs when I felt it was needed.

As a team leader and manager, I have screened hundreds of job applications myself and know the criteria who gets hired.
 

Since 2022 I have coached people world-wide in applying for jobs, improving their confidence and making better career decisions.

"Michaela has a very positive and motivating character and makes the coaching fun and instructive at the same time. Interesting conversations evolved from the weekly personal sessions and pushed me to be a bit more courageous and dare something I have been hesitant about before. Being more aware about my personality and traits is definitely boosting self-confidence."
