Career Course Correction course header

Stop Coasting. Start Steering.

Developer stuck on a treadmill

Most developers don’t quit because they hate code.
They quit because they coast too long, burn out quietly, or wake up one day and realize their career just… happened to them.

Sound familiar?

  • Comfortable job, no growth left.
  • Unsure whether to stay or go.
  • Coasting on autopilot, waiting for something to change.
  • Feeling invisible, replaceable, or drained.

If that’s you, Career Course Correction is the reset you’ve been looking for.

The 6-Week Program

Week 1 Where Are You, Really?
Grounded kickoff. Introductions, rules, and a blunt career check-in.
Week 2 What Fuels You (and What Doesn’t)
Strengths, values, energy drains. Know what lights you up and what kills motivation.
Week 3 Influence Without the Title
Tools and tactics for shaping your environment and notching small wins.
Week 4 Working Without Burning Out
Your personal operating system. Boundaries, context-switching, and leverage.
Week 5 Designing the Next Chapter
Stay or go? Either way, make the decision intentional.
Week 6 What Comes Next
Share your plan, reflect, and hear how others are moving forward. Wrap with realism and a push to keep going.

Who It’s For

  • Mid-career developers who feel stuck or stagnant.
  • Seniors wondering “is this all there is?”
  • Anyone who wants to stop drifting before five more years slip by.
This is not your typical coding course.

It’s about making your career intentional instead of accidental.


How It Works

  • 6 weekly calls (90 minutes each)
  • Private Signal group for in-between support
  • AI-driven prompts to help you reflect in private (no forced vulnerability)
  • Direct access to me and to each other

Small group, 8 people max. Real talk. No fake cheerleading.


The No Coasting Guarantee

The No Coasting Guarantee

If you show up for all six sessions and don’t leave with a clearer plan, I’ll give you a 60-minute 1:1. We’ll build the missing pieces together.

Either way, you leave with clarity.

Meet Your Coach

Cynical Dev sitting at a desk

I’m Craig, a developer with 20 years in the trenches.
I coasted too long in a comfortable job, burned out quietly, and eventually had to reset my own career.

Now I help other developers do it before it becomes a crisis.

This program is the framework I wish I’d had.


Maybe You’re Thinking…

“Do I really need this?”
If you’re happy coasting, maybe not.

But if you’re feeling stuck, drained, or unsure what’s next then this is exactly for you.


From Drift to Direction

Career Course Correction is your chance to hit pause, refactor your trajectory, and stop letting your career happen by accident.

Eight seats. Six weeks. A plan that makes sense.


Frequently Asked Questions

What if I miss a session?

There are no recordings — the real value is being in the room with the group.

That said, every week you’ll get a short written recap with the key points and reflection prompts.
It’s up to you to run through it and ask questions in the Signal group if you need clarity.

If you miss one week, you can catch up.
If you miss half the program, it’s probably not the right season for you to join.


How much time do I need to commit?

One 90-minute call each week for six weeks.
Plus whatever time you want to spend reflecting with the prompts or discussing in the Signal group.

If you can carve out 2 hours a week, you’ll be fine.


What if it doesn’t work for me?

If you show up for all six sessions and don’t leave with a clearer plan, I’ll give you a 60-minute one-on-one session.
We’ll build the missing pieces together.

Either way, you leave with clarity.
