Hi, I'm Ana! Well, that's not entirely true. I don't want to kick off our relationship with a half-truth. My full first name is Snježana. Because I lived and traveled all over the world, people always asked me for a simpler version - Ana. 

I work with professionals and leaders at a career crossroads: Looking to figure out what's next and relaunch their career so it finally feels right, without starting from zero.

That's you? Then we should talk. 

Because you may be experiencing that

• You're overwhelmed by all the options.
• You're smart but struggling to communicate your value. 
• You're not hearing back from companies, even if you have spent hours tweaking your resume. 

Let's change that. 

With 10+ years in Human Resources, I've been fortunate to work with many talented leaders at F500 companies and help them transition into more challenging roles. 

When I witnessed how insights from brain research helped these leaders achieve so much in little time, I realized that access to such knowledge would have saved me years of frustration when I was changing careers myself:

The confusion. The self-doubt. And that scary feeling: What if I never figure this out?

That's why I created Your Career Level Up, a coaching program combining science-backed frameworks and my practical experience running talent and recruiting programs to help you:

💡Get absolute clarity on your ideal career.
💡Gain an unfair advantage in the competitive job market.
💡Land the job you want and be awesome at it.

Don’t forget how far you’ve come.

It’s easy to get stuck in the tough moments.

It’s easy to think about giving up.

But before you do, take a second to remind yourself of everything you’ve already accomplished.

You’ve made progress.

You’ve put in the work when it didn’t seem like it would pay off.

Keep going.

It will all be worth it.

I help career coaches grow from inconsistent revenue to $10K-$80K per month by building a high-converting offer, a LinkedIn lead gen machine, and a scalable backend... guaranteed!

This completely changed how I think about business growth.

Most companies are obsessed with these metrics:

Revenue. Headcount. Market share.

But they're missing the most important one:

How many leaders are you creating?

Companies that build followers:
- Everything flows through the top
- Decisions get bottlenecked
- Growth hits a ceiling
- One person leaves, chaos follows

Companies that build leaders:
- Innovation happens everywhere
- Teams solve problems independently
- Growth becomes exponential
- The business runs without you

The math is simple:

1 leader who creates 1 follower = 2 people

1 leader who creates 1 leader = infinite potential

Because that new leader will create another leader.

And that leader will create another.

And another.

This is how Amazon scaled.

How Google innovates.

How the best companies stay ahead.

They don't just hire talent.

They multiply it.

The real question isn't "how can I control everything?"

It's "how can I make myself unnecessary?"

When your people can lead without you...

When they can create other leaders...

When they think like owners, not employees...

That's when you know you've built something that lasts.

Stop collecting followers.

Start creating leaders.

The future belongs to companies that multiply leadership, not hoard it.

Jeevan V.

In May 2025, a job seeker was laid off.
By July, she began working with one of our career coaches.
By October, she landed an offer with a $133K base salary, a $10K bonus, and amazing benefits.

How?

Because she had the right guidance.

A good career coach doesn’t just help you find a job.

They help you land a better job and negotiate a salary that covers their fee and more.

Instead of wasting time, she had a clear strategy.

Instead of underpricing herself, she learned how to ask for what she was worth.

Because the ROI of career coaching is faster results, better offers, and a plan that gets you there.

And in today’s job market, you can’t afford to go it alone.

Coaching helps you get there faster and with bigger rewards.

If you’re still trying to figure it all out on your own, consider this:

What’s your time worth?

What’s the cost of staying stuck longer?

♻️ Repost to remind people that they don’t have to do this alone.
And follow me for more real wins from the world of career coaching.

Most people aren’t lazy.

They’re just afraid of looking dumb.

They don’t avoid action because they don’t care.

They avoid it because they hate being bad at something new.

That fear?

It’s what keeps people stuck in jobs they’ve outgrown.

And businesses they never build.

Here’s what I’ve seen after coaching hundreds of career coaches:

The most successful ones?

They’re not the smartest.
They’re not the most confident.
They’re not the most ready.

They’re just the ones who take action anyway.

Even when it’s messy.

Even when they’re unsure.

Even when they have no idea what they’re doing.

They’re willing to be beginners again.

And that’s the real superpower.

So if you’re waiting to feel more prepared…

Or waiting for the fear to go away…

Let me save you some time:

It won’t.

The coaches who grow the fastest aren’t the ones who know the most.

They’re the ones who keep learning.

I see it every day.

The moment someone believes they “already know enough”…

Their business stops growing.

But the coaches who stay curious?

They level up faster than everyone else.

Because the game keeps changing.

The market changes.
Platforms change.
Strategy changes.

What worked last year won’t work next year.

What got you your first client won’t get you your next twenty.

So you only have two options:

Keep learning or stay stuck.

I’m still learning every week.

Not because I’m behind.

But because growth is a skill.

And the moment you think you’ve arrived… You start falling behind.

The industry is evolving.

So you have to evolve too.

Because like the quote says:

If you’re determined to learn, no one can stop you.

A lot of new career coaches make the same mistake.

You want cash, so you take anyone who’s willing to pay something… 

Even if it’s a small amount.

I did the same thing when I started.

But here’s what I learned after working with hundreds of clients:

The clients who pay the least usually struggle the most.

Not necessarily because they’re bad clients.

But because they don’t have enough skin in the game to follow through.

A small payment feels less risky.

And when it feels safe, it’s easy to delay it when you need to start putting in the work.

But the clients who invest more?

They know they have more to lose, so naturally they don’t want to waste money.

I have see that they execute consistently and take responsibility for their results.

And the better the outcome, the faster they become success stories.

So, if you’re just starting out, it’s normal to charge less.

You need experience, the reps, and social proof.

But keep this in mind as you grow:

Charging more isn’t about greed.

It’s about commitment.

It’s about partnering with clients who are ready to do the work.

And it’s about creating transformations that actually last.

Anyone can be a leader when things are going well.

The real test is what you do when the storm hits.

I've watched companies lately make tough calls.

Cutting budgets. Laying off employees. Tightening operations.

Here's what separates real leaders from weak ones:

Real leaders find creative solutions that protect both the business and their people.

Weak leaders take the easy way out and call it "business decisions."

When things get tough, real leadership is about getting creative:
→ Finding ways to cut costs without cutting people
→ Bringing the team together to solve problems collectively
→ Exploring every option before layoffs become the answer

Protecting profits matters.

But real leadership is finding ways to do it without sacrificing your people first.

Great companies aren't built on products or profits alone.

They're built on people.

Leaders who prioritize keeping their team together through tough times build loyalty you can't buy.

If you're at a company where layoffs are the first solution, not the last resort:

That tells you everything about their leadership.

Don't settle for less.

High performers aren’t leaving because they’re entitled.

They’re leaving because they’re tired of being undervalued.

Here’s how the cycle usually goes:

→ They go above and beyond
→ They stay loyal
→ They deliver results

But when they ask for a raise?

They’re told to “wait for the next review cycle.”
 
Or that the “budget is tight this year.”

So what do they do?

They take their talent somewhere else.
 
And suddenly, the same company that couldn’t approve a raise…

Is offering them counteroffers & promotions they should’ve made months ago.

It’s not a talent problem. It’s a priority problem.

Companies spend more time trying to replace great employees than retaining the ones already driving results.

And it’s costing them.

Paying people what they’re worth isn’t optional.
It’s how you keep your best players in the game.

Reshare ♻️ to help others who need to hear this.
And follow me for more posts like this.

Feeling stuck doesn’t mean you’re failing.

It usually means you haven’t moved in a while.

And the only way to fix that is with small steps.

Not a full business plan.

Just one small action today.

One message.
One idea written down.
One tiny move that gets you closer.

The truth is, most people don’t struggle because they’re incapable.

They struggle because they’re waiting for the moment when everything finally clicks.

But the click doesn’t happen first.

The action does.

My entire business started with small, simple steps.

And that 1 percent a day compounds faster than you think.

If you’ve been feeling the pull to build something of your own…

Or you've been thinking about starting a career coaching business in 2026…

This is your sign to take that first step now.

We’re hosting a free masterclass on November 17, 18, and 20 at 7pm EST.

Join us if you’re ready to finally start moving forward.

One small step today can change everything next year.

Most job seekers think their problem is their resume or interviews.
 
Most career coaches think it’s about networking and visibility.
 
But here’s the truth: if you try to sell networking, no one’s going to buy it.

Let me explain...
 
Job seekers don’t feel the pain of a weak network right now.
 
They’re feeling the pain of failing an interview in two days.

People don’t pay for what might help later.
 
They pay for what hurts now.

The job seeker lying awake at 3 AM isn’t worrying about their network.

They’re worrying about the interview in 48 hours.

So, what’s the big mistake coaches make?
 
They pitch the long-term fix when the client’s in crisis mode.
 
They sell what’s important instead of what’s urgent.

Instead, here’s what you should do:

Sell them the solution to their immediate pain (interview anxiety)

Once you've solved that, then you can introduce networking and long-term strategies.

If you're ready to learn how to apply this approach to your coaching business, DM me. 

Let’s talk strategy and how to start getting clients who trust you with their immediate needs.

The holiday season is almost here.

And most career coaches go silent. Big mistake.

You don't have to lose momentum just because job seekers take a break.

If you plan ahead, you can turn the "slow season" into a strategic advantage.

Here's how to keep momentum through the holidays:

1. Stay Visible
Don't pause your LinkedIn content or client outreach.
Keep your sales funnel moving.
Stopping now means rebuilding from scratch in January.

2. Add a Personal Touch
Most coaches go silent during this season.
So this is your chance to stand out.
Send personalized check-ins or voice notes to clients.
Ask about their holiday plans.
Build relationships when everyone else disappears.

3. Set Realistic Goals
Don't chase big sales right now.
Focus on maintaining presence and momentum.
Stay visible so you're top of mind when January hits.

4. Automate What You Can
Set up systems to manage routine tasks.
Consider hiring temporary help for client onboarding.
This lets you take time off without losing progress.

5. Batch Your Content
Plan your posts in advance.
Create a content calendar for December.
Target specific audiences like HR professionals who are still active.

But further than that, here's a HUGE opportunity most people miss:

LinkedIn job postings drop 15% during the holidays.

But applicant numbers drop 50%.

What does that mean?

Less competition for your clients.

And the perfect excuse you can use to create urgency.

The coaches who plan ahead don't just survive the holidays.

They position themselves to dominate in January.

By maintaining momentum now, you avoid the scramble later.

Set yourself up to enter 2026 with momentum, not from zero.

If you’re ready to start preparing for the new year and want guidance on building a strategy that works, DM me.

I would love to create a game plan for the next 90 days with you.

How to keep momentum in your business through the holidays

A boy without a positive male role model is 2-4x more likely to end up in jail than to go to college.

That’s why I need your help.

Growing up without a father, I was lucky to have a strong, supportive mother. 

But I know not everyone has that privilege.

So, 11 years ago, I decided to do something about it.

I joined Big Brothers Big Sisters of Central Florida as a Big Brother.

And I got matched with Zach, a young boy who didn’t have the kind of male role model he needed.

At first, I wasn’t sure if the hour or two I spent with him was making a real impact.

But then, years later, Zach wrote me a letter.

In it, he thanked me for being there when he needed it most. 

He told me I saved him from going down the wrong path. 

He said he looked up to me and wanted to be like me.

That’s when I realized: actions speak louder than words.

I wasn’t just mentoring him; I was showing him what hard work, resilience, and doing the right thing looked like.

Zach’s story isn’t unique. 

BBBS reports that their Littles are 20% more likely to go to college, earn 15% more over their lifetime, and close two-thirds of the economic gap compared to those who don’t have a mentor.

And this is why I’m asking for your help.

I’ve joined the Board of BBBSCF to help this amazing organization grow. 

But there’s a massive need for more mentors.

For every $500 donated, a new match is supported.

So here’s my offer:

For every $500 donation, I’ll give you one hour of coaching.

And if you choose to become a Big Brother or Big Sister, I’ll give you three hours of coaching.

This is my chance to give back. 

And I want to help raise $5,000 to support 10 new matches, because together, we can change lives.

If you’re ready to help me support the next generation, use this link to donate or to apply to become a big brother or big sister. 

Donate now in the link I'll drop in the comments or DM me.

I remember the conversation that changed everything for me.

Burnt out in corporate, wondering if I had what it took.

Then someone I barely knew spent an hour with me.

No agenda. Just genuine guidance.

That one hour gave me the clarity and confidence I needed.

Now I'm on the other side.

And here's what I've learned:

An hour of your time might feel small to you.

But to someone standing where you once stood, it's everything.

As business owners, we have something invaluable:

Experience that saves someone years of struggle.

Perspective that shifts how someone sees their path.

Encouragement that changes what someone believes is possible.

Imagine the ripple effect:

The person you mentor today becomes the mentor someone else needs tomorrow.

The entrepreneur you encourage builds a business that employs dozens.

The young person you guide avoids the wrong path and becomes the role model their community needs.

That's legacy.

Not what you build, but who you help build.

Speaking of impact:

I'm on the Board of Big Brothers Big Sisters of Central Florida, and we need your help.

For every $500 donated, a new mentor-mentee match is supported.

Here's my offer:
→ Donate $500, get one hour of coaching with me
→ Become a Big Brother or Big Sister, get three hours of coaching

Let's raise $5,000 to support 10 new matches and change lives together.

Donate now at the link I'll drop in the comments or DM me.

This Thanksgiving, I’m feeling really grateful.

Grateful for Jessica, who’s always my biggest supporter and keeps me grounded.
 
Grateful for my mom’s health and the time we get to spend together.
 
Grateful for my business partners, who push me to be better every day.
 
And grateful for my team, who somehow turns my wild ideas into something real and does it all with passion and grit.

As an entrepreneur, having this kind of support is everything.

We talk a lot about hustle, but without a solid support system, it’s easy to lose sight of what matters.
 
Building a business can be tough, and there are days when it feels like everything is on your shoulders.

But I’ve learned that you can’t do it alone.

You need people who believe in you when you’re doubting yourself.
 
You need people who challenge you, help you grow, and pick you up when you fall.

This year has shown me that my success isn’t just about what I’ve built, it’s about the people who’ve been with me along the way.

So, as I reflect this Thanksgiving, I just want to say thank you to everyone who’s been a part of this journey.
 
To those who’ve supported, believed in, and helped me grow, thank you from the bottom of my heart.

And to anyone out there building something, remember, you don’t have to do it alone.
 
Find your community.
Find your support network.

It makes all the difference.

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone.

Most coaches quit before they ever hit 6 figures.

I almost did, too.

It took me 3 years to finally break that milestone.

Three years of questioning if I had what it takes.

Three years of rejection, tweaking my offer, learning to sell.

Three years of figuring out how to build something sustainable.

So I get it when people are scared.

When they tell me they’re not sure they can do this.

When they say, “What if it doesn’t work?”

But this is why I coach.

Because I’ve been in that exact spot and made it out.

And now, I get to see others win faster.

One of our clients crossed $100K in revenue IN THEIR FIRST YEAR!!!

The same milestone that took me 3 years to reach, they hit it in 12 months.

Why?

Because they didn’t try to figure it all out alone.

They followed a process that’s been proven to work.

They took action. And they kept going.

The truth is, success doesn’t always come fast.

But it comes a lot faster when you’re not doing it alone.

And if you are not sure how to get started, I have an invitation for you.

Adam, Reno, and I are hosting a free masterclass on November 20 at 7 pm EST.

We will be talking about what it took us to build a 7-figure business only with organic content on LinkedIn.

I want you to be our next success story.

Are you ready for it?

I keep seeing the same thing on LinkedIn.

Career coaches posting every day, but still struggling to get clients.

And corporate professionals with years of experience, who could easily start coaching…

But have no idea how to actually get traction.

Both groups have the same problem.

There’s no clarity, no positioning, no direction.

Just posting and hoping something works.

But LinkedIn doesn’t reward “hope.”

It rewards strategy.

Your profile needs to be clear.

Your message needs to make sense.

Your content needs to attract the right people.

And your expertise needs to stand out immediately.

Most coaches aren’t struggling because they lack experience.

They’re struggling because their positioning is confusing.

That’s why I put together a free LinkedIn Branding & Content Essentials Cheat Sheet.

It’s the same framework Adam, Reno, and I used to grow a combined audience of over a million people on LinkedIn.

And the same strategy we teach coaches to book clients consistently without feeling salesy.

If you found the cheat sheet helpful…

You’re going to get even more value from our upcoming LinkedIn Gold Rush Masterclass.

We have two live sessions left: Nov 18 (TODAY) and Nov 20 at 7 PM EST.

We’ll break down exactly how to:

- Build your brand the right way
- Create content that attracts clients
- Turn visibility into predictable revenue in 2026

If you’re serious about growing your coaching business, do not miss this.

Who’s already gearing up for 2026?

Most people see the end of the year as a time to slow down.

But the best coaches I know see it differently.

They use this time to prepare.

To clean up their systems.

To set the stage for what’s next.

Because January isn’t when you start the year…

It’s when you execute the plan you built in November and December.

So I’m curious, where are you right now?

Choose where you are below!

Spoiler: I already am.
And you might want to start too.

Every year around this time, people start saying the same thing.

“Next year will be different.”
“Next year I’ll finally start my business.”
“Next year I’ll go all in.”

But then January comes.

And life looks exactly the same.

The truth is that the new year doesn’t magically change anything.

Your priorities do.

Because if you wait until January, you’re already behind.

The best time to build something of your own was yesterday.

The next best time is right now.

And the people who understand this?

They’re using this “slow season” to get ahead.

To start laying the foundation for what they’ll launch in 2026.

If you’ve been thinking about starting your own career coaching business, this is your moment.

Join the free masterclass Adam, Reno and I will be hosting this month and learn how to build your career coaching business on LinkedIn.

I remember when I first started posting on LinkedIn.

It felt like I was doing everything right.

Writing about what I knew.

Sharing advice that had worked for me.

Trying to help people.

But nothing happened.

A few likes here and there.

Some nice comments.

But I couldn’t get any clients.

And I remember thinking, “What am I missing?”

Because everyone else seemed to be getting results.

They made it look easy.

The truth is that it is not.

Most coaches don’t have a posting problem.

They have a clarity problem.

What should I post?
How do I attract the right clients?
How do I sell without feeling salesy?

If you’ve ever asked yourself those questions, you’re not alone.

That’s exactly what we’re talking about in our upcoming LinkedIn Live Q&A.

Join Adam Broda, Reno Perry, and me as we answer your biggest questions.

Live, unscripted, and based on what’s actually working for career coaches right now.

Drop your questions in the comments, and join us tomorrow (Nov 13th) at 6 pm EST.

LinkedIn Coaching Q&A: Setting Up for 2026

I meet career coaches pretty often, who remind me why this industry matters.

Real experience. Real success stories. Real impact on people's lives.

But they all hit the same ceiling.

They're incredible at coaching, but no one ever taught them how to build a business.

And that's not a talent problem.

It's an access problem.

Even the best coaches struggle without:

- The right systems to scale.
- Accountability to stay focused.
- Mentorship from someone who's built what they want to build.

That stops now.

This year, we're opening applications for one full scholarship to our Accelerator Pro program.

This is not a raffle or a handout.

It's merit-based for coaches who:

→ Have proven they can help people (with success stories) 
→ Are committed to building a real business in 2026 
→ Are ready to multiply their impact with the right structure 
→ Know they're capable of more with proper support

If that's you, I want to hear your story.

How have you been serving clients?

Where do you feel stuck?

What could you do with the right support behind you?

If you're ready to enter 2026 with real momentum:

This scholarship might be the bridge between where you are and where you're capable of going.

If you’re interested in applying, you can click the link I’ll drop in the comments, or comment the word SCHOLARSHIP, and I’ll send it to you via DM. 

All applications are due by December 11.
