Are you feeling lost or stuck in your career? You don’t have to figure it out on your own.
Professional coach supporting you through career changes and life transitions
Hi! I’m Crystal Lee and I’m a holistic career coach. I’m here to support you in defining and reaching your goals in work and life.
Wherever you are in your career journey (or in the world), I can help you find the clarity and confidence to pursue what you actually want.
What is holistic career coaching?
In short, I meet you where you’re at.
We’ll start by assessing your current situation and identifying your immediate challenges. As we work together, you’ll get clearer on your career direction and build confidence to pursue your goals. I’ll keep you accountable to action and challenge you when necessary. Most importantly, I’ll be there with you through the ups and downs of pursing your dreams, so you don’t fall back into old ways.
When you have direct questions, I’ll draw on my extensive experience working in diverse industries and supporting clients through career transitions to offer meaningful feedback.
Sample career coaching topics:
- Finding career direction
- Improving your resume, cover letter, and LinkedIn profile
- Expanding your job search strategies
- Preparing for job interviews
- Building your professional network
- Navigating sudden changes such as layoffs
- Overcoming burnout
- Rejoining the workforce after a break
- Searching for a job in a different city or country
- Conquering fears and moving into action
- Developing self-confidence
- Improving communications at work
- Thriving in intercultural workplaces
Whatever topic we start with, let’s take a holistic look at what’s important to you, so you can achieve your definition of success.

LinkedIn Update
Crystal was incredibly helpful with making me feel more confident in my job search! I had no idea what to do with my LinkedIn profile until I set up a video-chat with her and we walked through the different aspects of making an introduction section and how important it is to make your banner/profile picture reflect how you are professionally. I don't know what I would have done without her and I will forever be grateful!

What I bring to support you:
- Professional Coach Training: I completed a 200-hour training program with Co-Active Training Institute, widely recognized as the most rigorous professional coach training and certification program in the industry.
- Intercultural Competency: I have supported hundreds of individuals from all walks of life and from across the globe. I recognize there are multiple ways to approach every situation and I believe in exploring different viewpoints with my clients.
- Diverse Experience: I have worked in a variety of fields including tech, non-profit, education, healthcare, and entrepreneurship. I understand how different industries operate and what you can do to succeed within the different environments.
- Communications Expertise: My career began with teaching English to speakers of other languages and I’ve always been the go-to writer/editor for my friends and colleagues. I love how language can influence action. And I love sharing how you can make language work for you too!
- Creativity and Curiosity: I believe you’re the expert of your life, and my role is to bring out your natural creativity and resourcefulness. My coaching style involves lots of curious questions and sometimes creative play.
How It Works
Coaching happens over phone or video call (e.g. GoogleMeet, WhatsApp). That means we can work together as long as you have a stable internet connection.
I’ve worked with folks living across Canada from Vancouver to Ottawa. I’ve also supported international clients as far as France, South Africa, and Taiwan. I offer coaching in English with the option to incorporate Cantonese (fluent) and Mandarin (conversational).
Time Availability
I offer coaching both within and outside of traditional work hours including weekday evenings and on weekends. You’ll have the chance to share your time preference in the interest form below.
Rates
Because “fit” or “chemistry” is an important part of coaching success, I offer a free 20-minute consultation for new clients. During that call, we’ll get to know each other and you’ll have the chance to ask me any questions. After that, my rates are:
- 30 minutes: $65
- 60 minutes: $120
I reserve 3 hours each month for folks in transition to pay at a reduced rate (sliding scale). Please indicate on the interest form if you would like to learn about this opportunity.
