If you’re ready to elevate your career, mindset, and bank account, you’re in the right place.
 

Let’s build the version of your career (and life) that finally feels aligned, expansive, and rich in more ways than one.

LAND YOUR NEXT LEVEL CAREER NOW

You’ve Landed Here Because Something in Your Career Just Feels Off

You feel stuck at your current career level and crave growth.

You’re unsure what the right next step looks like or how to get there.

You feel underpaid and undervalued, despite how much you bring to the table.

You’re not seeing results from your job search efforts and can’t figure out why.

You’re frustrated and tired of spinning your wheels without real progress.

Deep down, you know you were meant for more — more impact, more income, more fulfillment.

They were there too.

IMAGINE IF YOU COULD…

01 — Gain Career Clarity

Finally figure out your next best career move with a focused job search plan built around your strengths, passions, and goals.

02 — Earn What You’re Worth

Land a higher-paying role with a $10,000–$50,000+ salary increase, giving you more financial freedom and peace of mind.

03 — Build Unshakable Confidence

Break free from impostor syndrome, stop second-guessing yourself, and start showing up powerfully in every opportunity.

04 — Create True Work-Life Balance

Design a career that actually fits your life — whether that means working remotely, having flexible hours, or joining a company that values a 4-day work week.

05 — Master Your Interviews

Walk into every interview with confidence, clarity, and strategy — knowing exactly how to communicate your value and get the offer.

06 — Network with Intention

Learn how to build genuine relationships with the right people so your applications actually get seen (and prioritized).

07 — Follow a Proven Action Plan

Stop spinning your wheels and wasting time trying to figure it out alone. Get a clear step-by-step roadmap to land your next aligned role — faster and with less stress.

I WANT THIS

Now, don’t roll your eyes just yet —

because I already know what you’re thinking… 👇

 

🧠 “Job searching is always going to be hard.”
🧠 “I’m not qualified for the roles I really want.”
🧠 “I should just keep trying to figure it out on my own.”
🧠 “I should be grateful for what I already have.”
🧠 “It’s way too competitive out there right now.”
🧠 “I just don’t have the time or energy to job search.”

 

But here’s the truth:

It doesn’t have to feel that way.
You can have a job search that feels focused, supported, and actually works.

 

And that’s exactly what we do inside of Rich and Hired Academy.

Success Stories That

Speak for Themselves

 

From career pivots to six-figure salaries, these are the results of women who decided they were made for more (and proved it inside Rich + Hired).

"The benefit of having Chelsea as a coach is that I have more than doubled my salary and joined the 6-figure club all while job searching less than 4 hours a week!

 

That was my goal and I reached it. The benefit is yes, the money, but also the extra time to focus on my health, the extra income to become a homeowner, and the confidence to continue to grow in my career. Prior to the program I was not confident, not focused, and not dreaming big enough. I was drained by my job search and not using the hidden job market. I am glad I met Chelsea and that she coached me through mindset shifts. I gained confidence and learned how to network in a way that is strategic and results driven. I remember bashfully sharing my dream career / lifestyle goals with Chelsea. She never said it wasn't possible, she so effortlessly helped me manifest those goals which I am now living out. I appreciate how Chelsea also cares about her clients as whole people. She cared about my career goals but she also helped me envision other lifestyle goals and passion areas I could pursue while also having my career. I can't believe how the program has shifted my whole life."

 "I spent over a year applying for job after job with no response. Seriously, NO response; not an email, a call, and interview, nothing! I was at my wit's end. Then the good Lord has Chelsea Stokes come across my TikTok For You Page and the heavens opened and the angels sang.

 

Ok, maybe not exactly that but something drew me to Chelsea and led me to contact her. Within a day we were on Zoom, learning about each other. Of course I cried because this whole process has been very emotional for me. Chelsea was so kind and understanding and comforting. I signed up for the program that very day and its the best decision I've ever made. I never could have known just how valuable that decision would be. This program has connected me with so many amazing women and so much knowledge. Because of this program I'm in a much better place. I know my worth and I refuse to settle for anything less. I'm far better equipped to handle the ups and downs than before and knowing you're not alone in this crazy landscape is everything. There really aren't enough words to accurately describe how grateful I am to Chelsea, her team, and all the amazing women I've met through the program . I genuinely can't wait to see where my life goes now!"

"This has been the BEST thing I could have ever done for myself

 

During a very dark and challenging time for me and I could not be more grateful for the experience and support that came from it!! If it wasn't for this beautiful community. I'm not sure I'd be where I am today with such a big happy smile on my face!! It is not easy work, but that's where the growth comes from; finding comfort in getting uncomfortable! Knowing you have a team of amazing experts to guide you through it all has been so rewarding. I will miss this program dearly, but am proud of myself and excited for my future ahead!! THANK YOU SO MUCH, TRULY!!"

As a Former Recruiter, Here’s What I Know…

 

Most people aren’t focused on the right actions to land the career they truly want.

 

Why? Because no one ever taught them how to think, act, and position themselves like a top candidate.

During my time as a recruiter for one of the largest media companies in the world (Time Inc.) I recruited for hundreds of roles and saw incredible candidates passed over every single day. Not because they weren’t qualified… but because they didn’t know how to communicate their value or market themselves effectively.

That’s why I created Rich + Hired Academy, to change that story.

After leaving corporate recruiting, I spent years on my own journey toward fulfillment even traveling the world in my dream role with Backroads Travel. Now, I’ve helped hundreds of professionals go from confused and surviving to aligned, confident, and thriving in careers that finally fit who they were created to be.
