"I was referred to Ms. Dockery by one of her former clients because I was looking to transition from K–12 teaching into higher education. With my experience and background, she helped me identify career paths that aligned with my skills and provided practical guidance on how to get there. She also coached me on strengthening my resume and improving my interview skills. Beyond her expertise, what stood out most was how genuinely she cared about my success. Thanks to her strategies, encouragement, and insight, I successfully landed a new position and made my career transition into higher education.

I am extremely satisfied with my experience with MHD Career Education. The guidance came at exactly the right time as I navigated both a career pivot and a shift in mindset. Makesha was intentional about ensuring my identity wasn't defined by my circumstances, and that became my biggest takeaway. She invested her time generously, shared a wealth of knowledge, and equipped me with interview strategies and guidance on how to confidently accept an offer with a higher salary. I highly recommend her to anyone looking to grow their career, employment opportunities, or business." "Within a few weeks, I accepted a position that aligned with my goals and negotiated a higher salary using the strategies Makesha taught me." .

Her coaching took a step-by-step approach to evaluating where I was versus where I wanted to be, then identified actionable steps to help me get there. The live sessions and homework were especially valuable, and the tools made it easy to map my current state and create a plan for my future. MHD Career Education provided so much more than career coaching. Every session was tailored to my specific needs and began by examining how my home life influenced my work. Makesha used thoughtful assessments and coaching tools to help me identify the biggest gaps and connect the relationship between my personal and professional life. We focused on creating a healthy balance between work and life, and one of the most eye-opening conversations centered on the financial impact of making a career change. Together, we created a timeline and actionable goals that gave me clarity and confidence moving forward. I'm incredibly grateful for her guidance.
