Redefine Success on Your Terms.

Career coaching and community for moms ready to embrace their next chapter with clarity, confidence, and purpose.

We are not who we were 20 years ago.

And what fulfills us now? It’s likely changed, too.

Our lives, values, and priorities have evolved, so why shouldn’t our careers?

I work with ambitious moms who feel that pull: the desire for work that feels meaningful, not just manageable.
Together, we rediscover what brings you satisfaction now and build a career that aligns with it.

Whether you’re pivoting paths, building something new or returning to work after a pause, we’ll create a plan that honors your ambition and your life.


No burnout. No guilt. Just clarity, confidence, and a second act that fits.

Wherever you are on your journey, there’s a path designed to support you.

1:1 Coaching for Moms

The Deep Dive

This is for the woman who’s ready to go all in. Private coaching offers deep, 1:1 support to help you reconnect with who you are, define what success looks like now, and take focused action toward a career, and life, that feels meaningful, energizing, and fully your own. It’s personalized, transformative support—designed entirely around you.

When you give yourself permission to want more, here’s what becomes possible...

Rediscover Your Spark

Reconnect with what lights you up. Get unstuck, reignite your passions, and uncover a path that finally feels like yours.

Reclaim Your Energy

When you’re doing work that energizes you, everything else feels more possible. Because when you’re drained, there’s no space left for what matters most—and that’s just not sustainable.

Move Through Guilt and Fear

Replace self-doubt with mindset tools that help you act with confidence—not guilt. Show up for your goals without apology.

Find Yourself Beyond “Mom”

You’re more than your title. Explore what brings you joy, purpose, and identity outside of caregiving.

Break Free From the Sunday Scaries

Work doesn’t get to take over your weekend. Protect your time, your mood, and your presence, so you can enjoy your Sundays, not dread them.

Own Your Time Again
Build a schedule that reflects your values—so your days are filled with intention, not just obligation.

Thinking about making a change can feel overwhelming, especially when you’re already balancing work, family, and the million things that pop up daily. But carving out time for yourself and your goals isn’t just a luxury. It’s essential. Because when you feel fulfilled, everything else flows better too.

As a coach, I believe you already have the answers. My role is to help you uncover them—to peel back the layers, quiet the noise, and reconnect with what truly matters so you can move forward with clarity, confidence, and purpose.

Success Stories

  • I would tell anyone who is looking for clarity and some guidance and overall happiness that this program is worth its weight in gold.

    Dara worked with my unbelievably scattered mind, my all-over-the-map ideas, and my less than rosy view of what was possible. In the process, she helped me reframe my thinking toward a more positive, realistic, and productive framework. She led me toward clarity, energy, excitement.

    After weeks of committing to Dara’s program I was able to take an honest look at who I am and pursue doing exactly what I wanted to do. Dara and I began working together in February of 2024 and by the following September I signed a lease to open my own retail store, The Stand, in Rye, NY.

    She cleared the cobwebs, she helped me set goals and tap into what brings me joy. Dara played the greatest role as my coach and as my friend in making this dream come true. I will always be grateful for where she brought me.

    Now I begin an incredible new chapter and I don't think I could have arrived here without her. I would tell anyone who is looking for clarity and some guidance and overall happiness that this program is worth its weight in gold. It is a GAME CHANGER.

    -Betsie Carroll, Owner The Stand, Rye, NY

  • Taking that first step towards your pivot is a hard thing to do but the outcome can be lifechanging!

    In this program I started by focusing on my life stuff first - getting my time more organized, understanding my values, areas of my life I want to improve, and the blockers I face in my head every day. In this process, I became more aware of how important it was for me to reconnect with the people I admired and respected that I worked with in a past life. This increase in connectivity led me to 3 exciting and diversified career opportunities in a short period of time!Through the power of the course’s exercises, I was able to effectively navigate, prep and negotiate for all 3 opportunities to fit within my desired life plan.

    I still have to pinch myself to believe that I landed my dream job at Pinterest AND the opportunity to consult in areas of business and clients I am most passionate about. I truly could not have manifested this reality without the tremendous support from Dara.

    I have already recommended this group to many women who are going through the same thought process I experienced. They feel trapped in their successful careers financially but they are no longer feeling fulfilled, motivated to do their best work, etc.

  • Every session felt like a burst of inspiration, allowing me to dream bigger and take bold steps forward.

    Working with Dara has been one of the most important and rewarding parts of starting my small business. In a space that was so unknown after years in corporate, she was the calm to my storm, reassuring me that following my passion was the right decision. What really stood out to me was her genuine commitment—she always made me feel like I was her top priority. She believed in me from day one, and pushed me to protect my worth. Her constant encouragement helped me tackle challenges that felt overwhelming. I’m so grateful for her support and for helping me discover the fearless entrepreneur inside. Thank you, Dara, for being such a magical piece of my next career next life chapter.

  • Not only has she helped me figure out my next steps professionally, she has also helped me embrace this transition with confidence.

    I am incredibly grateful for the guidance and support I’ve received from Dara {during her Career Pivot Playbook Group Program}. She’s been an amazing resource, always offering thoughtful advice, being a sounding board when I need to talk things through, and giving me the push I need to move forward.

    Whenever I talk to her, I am even more motivated than ever to pursue my goals. I am also so excited to be part of her EntrepreneHER group this year. I know it is going to be invaluable to expand my perspective, my network, and truly help me get my business off the ground. I can’t thank her enough!

    -Ruthie Baruch, Project Partner

  • I was stuck in a cycle of feeling bad about myself and my job and too burnt out to improve my situation.

    After working with Dara, I started approaching each new meeting and exchange as an opportunity to change the narrative and began leaning into my strengths and talents. Dara helped me move through a professional maze and be intentional about the path I wanted to take. I constantly recommend her services to anyone who is feeling overwhelmed juggling work and motherhood. 

    -ANDIE

  • I truly can’t thank you enough for creating this special group. I just love how the last 4 months of my business- and life- has changed with being a part of your group!

    As a solopreneur, I loved the work, growth, and flexibility—but it could feel lonely navigating it all alone. Joining Dara’s EntrepreneurHer group changed everything. She’s created a community of smart, supportive women who offer invaluable business insights, networking opportunities, and genuine friendships. Her leadership is a game changer in scaling my business and is making the journey inspiring and so much fun!

    -Katherine Gold, Katherine Gold Design

  • Dara is amazing. 

    I came to her at a crossroads in my career post-children, and she helped me clarify my goals, get to the root issues, and, ultimately, make a decision that I felt confident in.  She is intuitive and honest and just a wonderful sounding board, guide, and ally.  I would recommend her coaching services to anyone that needs a supportive and clear-eyed counselor to help them navigate their career at any stage.
