The SHOW UP Accelerator

Stop Waiting for Your Career to Move Forward on Its Own

A 90-Day Mid-Career Coaching Experience for Greater Visibility, Influence, and Career Momentum

You’re doing good work. But at this stage of your career, good work alone may not be enough to get noticed, create new opportunities, or move you toward what’s next.

The SHOW UP Accelerator helps mid-career professionals become more intentional about how they communicate their value, increase their visibility, build strategic relationships, and take action on one meaningful area of their career.

Three Months | Small Cohort of 5-8 Members | Founding Cohort Investment of $1,500

Doing Good Work is Necessary. It is No Longer Enough.

At mid-career, your advancement is no longer determined only by how well you execute.

The right people need to understand your value.

You need relationships beyond your immediate manager.

You need to communicate your accomplishments and impact.

You need to have intentional conversations about your growth.

And you need to take greater responsibility for what happens next.

Sometimes that creates new opportunities where you already work.

Sometimes it gives you the clarity to know it’s time to leave.

Either way, how you SHOW UP matters.

What Will You Work on for 90 Days?

The Accelerator isn't built around a one-size-fits-all career goal.

You will choose one meaningful area of your career that you want to move forward during the 90 days and use the SHOW UP strategies, coaching, peer learning, and accountability to make measurable progress.

90 Days | One Career Priority | Coaching While You Implement 

Founding Cohort Bonus 

Participants in this inaugural SHOW UP Accelerator will also receive a private 30-minute Career Momentum Follow-Up session within 30 days after the program ends.

You Shouldn't Have to Navigate Mid-Career Alone

One of the most valuable parts of this experience is hearing how other accomplished professionals are navigating visibility, leadership, workplace relationships, career decisions, and advancement.

Someone else's question may unlock something for you.

Someone else's win may show you what's possible.

And someone else's challenge may help you recognize a pattern you couldn't see on your own.

You still receive private coaching, but you also gain the perspective and accountability that comes from learning alongside a small group of professionals at a similar stage of their careers.

This is the power of this group.

Inside the Accelerator, these aren't simply concepts to learn. You will apply them to the career situation you are actually navigating.

The SHOW UP Accelerator is Designed for You If...

• You are a mid-career professional, generally at the manager through senior-director level.
• You are capable and successful but believe your career has more potential.
• You want greater visibility, influence, responsibility, or clarity.
• You are willing to have conversations and take action rather than simply consume more information.
• You are open to learning alongside other professionals.
• You are willing to invest 90 days in intentionally working on your career.

This may not be the right fit if:

• You are primarily looking for résumé writing or LinkedIn optimization.
• You want someone else to tell you exactly what job to pursue.
• You are unwilling to take action between sessions.
• You are looking only for private one-to-one coaching.
