Where clarity intersects with courage and creates forward momentum

BeCoached

I'm Cindy Schwartz, your Professional & Personal Development Coach, and a former Director of Talent Strategy/Recruitment Consultant for one of Canada’s premiere staffing agencies.

I’m the architect for leveling up from your outdated identity

For 23 years, I advised over 200 companies on hiring strategy and guided more than 30,000 professionals through career transitions, negotiations, and new beginnings. I understand both sides of the table; what organizations value and what individuals truly need to thrive.

Here’s what I’ve learned; most people don’t choose jobs intentionally. They react, they seek, they outgrow, they resent. And then they keep repeating the cycle.

BeCoached was created in 2016 to interrupt this pattern.

I’ve blending all my expertise into a space that’s designed just for you. A place to slow down, reflect deeply, and design a career that aligns with who you are now, not who once were.

Together; 

  • We uncover what you truly love doing, so you can be more connected to your work

  • We identify and remove obstacles to your success

  • We hone in on your ideal conditions for success

  • We discover your raison d’etre to cultivate confidence 

  • We co-create a more meaningful life/career

Congratulations to anyone reading this; you’ve crossed paths with someone who can truly transform your next chapter."

  • "Choosing to work with Cindy was one of the best decisions I have ever made. I’m not exaggerating when I say the experience was life-changing. What makes Cindy’s approach so powerful is her combination of structure, strategy, and heart. She guided me through the reflection I needed, held me accountable when the work felt hard, and was an incredible cheerleader throughout the process. Working with Cindy was truly an investment in myself, and one that was worth every penny."
