Job Coaching & Resource Navigation

Coaching from someone who's also figuring it out.

Spectrum Affirming offers peer-based Job Coaching and Resource Navigation sessions — one-on-one time with Spectra or Jaye to work through a specific job-search or workplace problem, not a generic career-coaching script.

What this isn't: therapy, legal advice, or a guaranteed job outcome. Spectra and Jaye aren't licensed counselors, therapists, or career placement professionals — sessions are peer support from people who've navigated these systems themselves. Full scope in the disclaimer.

What a session might cover

Interview prep

Structuring answers ahead of time, deciding what to do about eye contact, and practicing without turning it into a performance.
