About

You’re curious, creative, and multi-dimensional. ​You also have a million ideas of what you could do, which makes it’s hard to decide which path feels right. ​And, while you want work that has meaning, you fall victim to scrolling on LinkedIn, applying to the same jobs you’ve held before because of the paycheck or because you don’t know anyone else choosing something different. If you feel stagnant in your career, but you're not sure how to make the next move that will free you from a system that doesn't work for you anymore, you're not alone. After years of climbing the corporate ladder and doing “what I was supposed to do”, I also wondered why I was working so hard for something I didn't even want. If you don’t want to start over but you also can’t ignore the pull toward a different way to work, you're in the right place. The good news is: you don’t have to choose one thing. You can start small, experiment, and create a career that fits you. I'm Maggie and before turning 30, I reached a point where I felt lost, stuck, ​and ​in misalignment with my life. While I had a 10-year career at some impressive companies—Deloitte, Slack, and Asana—I couldn’t see myself climbing the corporate ladder anymore. I wanted a life where I could work wherever and whenever I wanted, build something of my own, and connect meaningfully with others doing the same. So, I changed my path. Now, I help curious, multi-dimensional women design portfolio careers that align with their values, interests and lifestyle. I help companies and communities design retreats and experiences that bring their people together. I host on Airbnb and travel as much as I can. Finally, I do my very best to share my journey transparently and authentically on LinkedIn and in my newsletter, Feeling Free, to help those who need it. If this resonates or you're interested in working together, DM me or send me an email at m@maggie-blackburn.com.
