A Note From the Founder

Dear Career Seeker,

In 2011, while working as a career counselor, I realized I didn't feel fulfilled in my own career. I began the journey of looking for my life's purpose through workshops and psychology trainings.

During one workshop, I confronted being bullied as a child and discovered something powerful: the answers to career fulfillment had been inside me all along — hidden in my earliest memories. By exploring these memories, I transformed past pain into purpose.

This insight led me to found Inner Compass Coach in 2014, where I've guided over a thousand clients toward career clarity. Childhood memories reveal what energizes us, what holds us back, and what brings fulfillment — serving as a compass for career decisions and finding meaningful work.

While I no longer provide individual coaching, I connect clients with a licensed coach who offers one-on-one guidance using the Inner Compass approach. I've also made this process accessible in my book, The Inner Compass Process, which walks you step by step through uncovering your strengths and finding career direction.

Whether you prefer personal coaching or self-guided exploration, the tools are here to help you find clarity and fulfillment.

Warmly,
Danielle Roessle

The Signature System

Rediscover. Research. Roadmap.

A three-part framework that uses childhood memories to clarify career direction — and build a plan you can actually act on.

01

Rediscover

Identify the patterns from childhood and in your career where you thrive. Clarify what holds you back and what gives you a sense of fulfillment. Create your True North Guide — a job framework that acts as your north star for any career decision.

02

Research

Research career opportunities that could be a good fit, using your True North Guide to evaluate options. Learn how to use networking conversations to feel safe in testing the waters while determining your career direction.

03

Roadmap

Create a roadmap of next steps with realistic goals, job search strategies, and tactics to overcome obstacles that might get in your way.

By the end of the program, you will:

  • Recognize what is and isn't working in your current position
  • Identify the one or two innate talents you should be paid for
  • Know what's holding you back — and how to move forward
  • Build a job framework to quickly gauge whether a role is a good fit
  • Pinpoint whether you want to change your job, employer, career, industry, your mindset at work, or start a business
  • Become a confident networker and researcher in your new direction
  • Walk away with a clear, actionable plan for your career goals

At the heart of my work is a deeply personal motivation: helping people find their voice — and find a place in the workplace where that voice is valued.

I came to career coaching naturally. As a child, I often felt like I didn't have a voice of my own. I found expression through improv and acting, and later moved through roles in human resources, banking, sales, marketing, and finance. Along the way, I learned how to tread lightly while still having a voice — and how to help others do the same.

With over fifteen years of coaching experience, I listen closely to what is said and what isn't. I help clients recognize patterns, challenge assumptions, and find work where they can show up fully and feel genuinely heard.

Frequently Asked Questions

I specialize in working with introspective, action-oriented mid-career to executive-level professionals who feel stalled in their careers. They experience dissatisfaction despite being comfortable with their current income and are eager to pivot but lack clarity on their next steps. My clients are open to diverse activities — including play, introspection on past experiences, and proactive networking — all aimed at gaining the clarity and direction they seek.
My coaching typically involves bi-monthly meetings over a three-month period. Upon registering, you gain access to comprehensive course materials. While I provide recommendations on pace based on your goals, you have the flexibility to navigate the program at your own speed.
To identify a new career direction within three months, you'll need to dedicate about 3 hours per week during the first month. The time commitment tends to increase in months two and three as you progress with your job search or business startup. The program is flexible and can be adjusted to match your preferred pace.
Absolutely. Coaching can encompass a dual focus to address both career change and business startup aspirations.
There is a materials fee of $125 and a session rate of $235 per 60-minute session. The average client works with Ros for about six 60-minute sessions.
Refunds are not offered, though you may discontinue services at any point. A sliding scale is not available — a core part of this work is helping clients realize their true worth and negotiate confidently for what they deserve. Many clients have negotiated salary increases that more than cover the cost of coaching. For lower-cost options, the book is a great starting point, and your local workforce development center or alumni career services may offer free or reduced-cost support.
