Own Your Career - With the Flexibility You Deserve and the Freedom You Want

If you're exhausted from the golden handcuffs, drained by meetings that feel meaningless, and tired of waiting for "someday" when you'll finally have the freedom to live on your terms - this is for you.

You don't need another degree. You don't need to quit tomorrow. And you definitely don't need to blow up everything you've worked so hard to build.

What you need is a New Map.

The Problem No One's Talking About

You're good at what you do. I bet you're really good. You've climbed the ladder, you've earned it, you've proven yourself.

But somewhere along the way, your career stopped feeling like yours.

Instead, it somedays...it might even feel like like a trap...

* The "someday" promises that never arrive...someday you'll take a real vacation,

someday you won't be so tired, someday you can prioritize yourself

* The invisible pressures no one else sees: caregiving responsibilities, health changes, reorganizations that shift the ground beneath you

* The guilt that comes with every compromise, every boundary you can't quite hold

* The Sunday dread that settles in your chest because you know what Monday brings

And when you think about making a change? You're stuck between two equally bad options:

Stay stuck in a role that's draining the life out of you.

Or....

Quit everything and start from scratch - with real bills to pay and no safety net.

The thought of staying feels suffocating. The thought of leaving feels overwhelming. And endlessly Googling "dream job" just keeps you spinning in place.

So you stay. Because at least you know what to expect. At least there's a paycheck. At least it's... stable.

Even if stable means slowly losing yourself.

What if There Was a Third Option?

There are dozens of ways to honor your unique strengths, that give you the flexibility you need, and still protect your financial security - you just don't have the map to find them yet.

What if instead of choosing between "stuck" and "risky leap," you could:

1) See what opportunities exist - where to find them and how to create them

2) Design a role that moves with your life, not against it

3) Test ideas safely, to move forward with confidence, without gambling your security and stability

Not someday. Not after another decade of sacrifice.

Now.

That's exactly what The Non-Traditional Career™ is about: giving you a new way to navigate your career that doesn't require torching what you've built or taking a blind leap into the unknown.

Introducing: The Non-Traditional Career

This isn't another "follow your passion" manifesto, a vague pep talk, a "quit corporate and become a consultant" spiel, or worse an MLM - a multi-level marketing pyramid.

Burnout jobs and golden handcuffs → Carefully designed roles with negotiated titles, descoped responsibilities, and flextime arrangements

Dr. Shannan Simms

Rule Defier. Status Quo Squasher. Career Catalyst.

Strategic Career Consultant + Creator of the Unapologetic EDGE

I’m not here to help you play the game - I’m here to help you name what fits, challenge what doesn’t, and build a career that works for your life.

🔸I’ve been in the boardroom - and the back office.

🔸Built multi-million-dollar consulting businesses

🔸Advised Fortune 500 leaders

🔸Made the calls that shaped careers -promotions, layoffs, restructures, culture overhauls

But I’m not just a business leader and strategist.

🔸I’m a behavioral scientist

🔸A former therapist

🔸A leadership coach

And I’ve made non-traditional career moves that to others looked "reckless" on paper. 

🔸Walked away from titles without a backup plan

🔸Climbed down ladders other people were still chasing - because it cost me too much

🔸I’ve pushed for space to lead my way

🔸Fought for boundaries no one taught me to set

🔸Wrestled with doubt, pressure, and perfectionism - and kept going

Not because I had it all figured out.

But because I knew “almost right" wasn’t going to cut it for me.

And now - I'm teaching women leaders what it took me 20 years to figure out - to give you an unapologetic edge and to help you own your career on your terms.
