What do you want to be known for?
Possibility gives you direction. Action shows you what’s real.
Career coaching in Vancouver and online for people who want to determine what matters, test possible directions, and turn uncertainty into action.
Turn Possibility Into Something You Can Test
We look at where you are now, what is missing, and what you want to use more of in your work.
Instead of waiting for the perfect answer, we identify a direction, conversation, or change that can give you useful information.
You try something different, learn from what happens, and use that evidence to decide what comes next.
What clients say about the process
Who you’ll be working with
I’m John Fialkowski, a career coach working with capable professionals who are ready to stop circling the same problems and start doing something different about their work.
My approach is conversational, practical, and focused on helping things actually click. I ask the right questions, help you see things clearly, and work with you to turn that clarity into action.
Most people expect this to feel heavy or uncomfortable. It’s not. The conversations are real, engaging, and often the first time things actually start to click.

Insights and Advice from John
Your Career Story Is Yours to Tell
One of the most common fears I hear from young job seekers is that being fired will permanently damage their career. As though somewhere there is a file that follows them from employer to employer, documenting every mistake and every setback.
There isn't.

How it works…
Let's start with a call, see if there is a fit. No two situations are alike, and I'd like to know about your situation, what is getting in your way, and what you need.
In our first call we will discuss the nature of your situation, what goals you might have, the barriers to your success, what excites you about work and what gets you down. I hope to be able to break down some of those barriers and start to work on your vision.
When we've established your vision, we will work on breaking down the barriers that stand in your way. Build the confidence to express your vision and find what you are looking for.
I'm based in Canada, but my clients come from all over the world. Don't be shy, it never hurts to talk.
