The Six-Week Career Makeover Program

A Guided Program for Professional Women Navigating Career Transitions

Created by Sherryl Dimitry, Ph.D.


This is more than a resume refresh. It’s a career transformation.

Designed for smart, motivated women ready to take charge of their next chapter, The Six-Week Career Makeover is a strategic, research-backed program that helps you rebuild, refocus, and relaunch your career with clarity, confidence, and support.

You won’t just learn how to write a better resume. You’ll design a better strategy—one that aligns withBuy your life, your values, and your voice.

A bit more about the program, what to expect, and how to save a spot:

This program might be for you if you have these challenges:

  • Lack of clarity in career direction. Feeling stuck, scattered, or unsure about next steps, or difficulty navigating non-traditional career paths, or staying in familiar roles despite dissatisfaction.

  • Facing expected layoff/RIF, or recovering from one and actively job searching.

  • Limited access to aligned collaborators, mentors, or advocates, or experiencing networking fatigue. Feeling like you’re alone in your search.

  • Working in environments that conflict with personal ethics or relational values. Feeling disconnected from purpose or impact.

  • Difficulty articulating a compelling professional identity (your “brand”), Struggling to articulate what problems you solve and for whom, or messaging that feels generic or inauthentic.

  • Chronic stress from misaligned roles or toxic cultures, resulting in loss of motivation or creative spark, and burnout.

  • Imposter Syndrome and Self-Doubt. Internal narratives that diminish confidence or visibility. Fear of being “too much” or “not enough” in professional spaces

  • And more…

What you’ll get over six structured weeks:

Build your Posse: Identify the allies, mentors, coaches, and advocates who will support your transition or help you clarify direction and opportunities.

Reclaim your Value: Get grounded in your unique gifts and strengths—and how they add real business value.

Map Your Life System: Apply systems thinking to design a career path that fits your full life instead of constantly struggling with the myth of “work-life balance.”

Explore Your Options: Strategically investigate roles, industries, and income pathways that align with who you are now.

Launch with Intention: Write smart, targeted resumes and STAR stories, work around the ATS black hole and impress real people. Update your LinkedIn profile to target your key career goals.

Manage Your Career Like an Asset: Build an Individual Development Plan (IDP), ditch the career ladder in favor of something far more real, and understand the very real barriers women face in the workplace, and the bridges you need to build to overcome them.


About the Cohort: 

Complete the entire six weeks with a small group (limited to 10) who complete the program together, meet with me and only others in the cohort by Zoom each week to discuss their challenges and share their stories in a confidential, safe, judgment-free zone. This is the best option and provides the most bang for your buck because you will be committed to doing the work and supporting other women doing the same. Plus, I'm adding a Career Path Assessment (more info to follow). Don't discount the value you bring to others in transition and transformation. I'm starting a waitlist for the pilot groups starting mid-August and mid-September 2025. Email me for more information.

Time Commitment:

Each week will consist of reading a book chapter for the week’s content and exercises. (Videos are still in development at this point). Be ready to commit at least 2-3 hours per week for reading, reflection, and active work on assignments in addition to the one-hour live cohort call every Monday at 6pm ET (zoom invite will be sent once you confirm participation).

The book is readable in hours. But the program is designed to transform you over weeks. It's work. It's work worth doing for yourself, your life, and your career.

Perfect for professional women tired of waiting for opportunity—and ready to aim and fire.
