STRATEGY

INCUBATOR

STANDOUT

Recession Ready

A bold 4-day workshop for creative professionals ready to fast-track their job search and land their next role with clarity, confidence, and strategy.
(even in a recession)

Limited seats available. 

If you’re here, I’m guessing you’re a talented creative architect or designer who knows you're meant for more.

But right now, your job search probably looks like this:

→ You’re applying and not hearing back
→ Your resume feels flat (even though your work isn’t)
→ You’ve rewritten your story a hundred times, but it still feels off

 

 

Here’s the truth:


It’s not you. It’s your positioning.

And when the market is flooded, being "qualified" isn’t enough.


You have to be unforgettable.

The Recession Ready Standout Strategy Incubator is how you collapse time on your career clarity, positioning, and materials.

What usually takes 3–6 months of coaching?


We do it in 4 days because you don’t have time to wait.

Imagine that by next week, you could be scheduling an interview at a dream firm instead of sending another resume to the LinkedIn void.

This is how we make that happen.

#17 - Krystin - HeadshotPro_edited.jpg

Hi, I’m Krystin.

I’ve spent the last five years sitting at the hiring table, leading recruiting and talent strategy for a global architecture and design firm. I’ve reviewed thousands of resumes, portfolios, and interviews, and I know exactly what separates the forgettable from the unforgettable.

As an HR leader and career and leadership coach, I’ve helped designers, architects, and creatives get clear on their value, communicate it with confidence, and land the roles they actually want.

 

I created this incubator to reduce the time spent on your job search because sometimes 3-6 months of coaching doesn't make sense. You need strategy, visibility, and the right support.

 

Let’s make sure you’re the one they remember.

Testimonials

Marina R., Interior Designer, NYC

Before working with Krystin, I felt like I was shouting into the void, sending out dozens of applications with nothing in return. After just one session, I completely reframed how I tell my story. Within two weeks, I had interviews lined up with firms I once thought were out of reach.

James L., Architectural Designer, LA

I used to think my resume and portfolio spoke for themselves. Turns out, they were saying all the wrong things. Krystin helped me clarify my value, elevate my presentation, and network without feeling gross about it. I landed two interviews shortly after my workshop.

Asha P., Project Designer, Seattle

Krystin sees the gaps you didn’t even realize were holding you back. She gave me tools, scripts, and structure. but more than that, she gave me confidence. This was more effective than months of career coaching I’d tried before through my firm.

FAQs

What if I can’t attend live?
You’ll get replay access for every session.

Do I have to be in design or architecture?
This is built for creatives, especially those
 in design and visual storytelling, but if you’re ready to own your voice and stand out, you’re in the right place.

 

How is this different from career coaching?
Traditional coaching takes 3–6 months. This is a 4-day fast-track designed to get results now. Built by a former HR leader who’s sat on the hiring side. I know exactly what gets attention.

How is the incubator delivered?
The incubator is hosted live via Zoom over four days, with an optional fifth-day VIP session. You’ll also get access to a personal workbook with exercises, downloadable scripts, and a private participant Facebook group with additional resources, feedback, and discussions.

Will I get feedback on my materials?
Yes. Peer breakout reviews and VIP sessions include live feedback. You’ll also have a chance to submit for a personal audit giveaway.

Do I need a portfolio to join?
Not necessarily, but Day 4 is especially helpful for creatives with visual materials. If you’re job-searching in any creative industry, you’ll get massive value either way.

Will I be able to keep working with you after the incubator?
Yes! I offer exclusive discounts for incubator participants who want to continue with personalized coaching. You’ll have the option to apply for deeper support after the challenge ends.

Do you offer refunds?
Because of the digital nature of this live experience and the limited seat availability, I do not offer refunds. Please enroll only if you’re fully committed to showing up and doing the work.

Are results guaranteed?
While I provide proven tools, personalized guidance, and recruiter-backed strategies, your results depend on your level of engagement and follow-through. I can’t guarantee outcomes, but I can guarantee you’ll leave with a stronger story, strategy, and sense of direction than when you started.
