WHY I STARTED PATHWAYS COLLECTIVE
I’m Rebekah Kulidzan, an experienced Career Coach and Mentor with training from Pure Coaching Academy and Chronus Mentoring. I work in the Tech Industry specialising in Strategy, Partner, Sales and Business Development, after a career change in 2020 which informed the work I do now as a coach.
Throughout my career I have benefitted hugely from mentors and coaches. I had low confidence. I became a workaholic and struggled with severe mental ill health that impacted the way I needed and wanted to balance home life and work. [Learn more about my journey on my personal blog].
Coaching gave me a new life. It gave me the power to own my voice, to communicate my needs and bring balance back into my life without compromising on my career goals. I know it works because I wouldn’t be the person I am today without it. We can’t (and shouldn’t) do it all alone.
Realising the first industry I was in, although on paper I was “successful”, wasn’t making me happy, I started my journey to switching careers. I reached out to people, online and in person, who gave me advice on how to get started, how to promote my brand, how to navigate the fast-paced world of tech and remind me that I did (and do) belong.
This is where I found Community. An uplifting, powerful force of like-minded individuals who push you to be the best version of yourself and work towards your goals everyday. Who remind you life is for living. To keep going when times are tough.
This is what I want Pathways Collective to be for you. A combination of tailored career coaching and a growing, vibrant community of people who want to take ownership of their path – whatever that may be, every step of the way, each twist and turn.
“I’ve got back control of my life and career.”

how career coaching works: PATHWAYS approach
I help individuals (and teams) engage in an ongoing process of developing their potential. People are motivated by autonomy, specialisation, recognition and purpose. At Pathways Collective we believe everyone is creative, interesting and important. I help clients to become independent, critical thinkers, with confidence and tools to build a life and career you are proud of.
I listen with acceptance and without judgment.
I believe we all have the power to determine our future. I do not believe in hustle culture, but I do believe in the need to get sh*t done. I help people to identify their aspirations and goals. I enable people to define their own objectives and methods for achieving them in a timely manner.
I believe our careers may be fruitful, diverse, non-linear and ever-changing. I help people explore the choices open to them and understand how to combine multiple aspirations and interests.
Pathways Collective coaching is collaborative but client-led.
- Want to be the youngest CEO of a multi-million business in the UK? Let’s go for it!
- Want to spend more time at home with your family while making money passively in the background? Amazing! Let’s find you the balance you need
- Unsure about where you want to go next, but know you aren’t happy in your current job? That’s OK, together we can figure out your next path!
I strive to understand what gives my clients meaning, what motivates them and what enables them to take, and continue with, action. I ask questions that enable people to learn and grow, to have a more fulfilled life. These questions are transformational rather than transactional. I help individuals find their passion by following their energy, beliefs and strengths.
I am committed to honesty, openness and vulnerability. Coaching works best when we trust one another.
I do not work “on” you, but with you.
Coaching is collaborative. I follow your thoughts, using questions that will help you move forward. I am here to help you and will give honest feedback throughout the coaching relationship. It is my job to help remove the walls we’ve built around us as individuals, so you can achieve your goals, when you want to achieve them, and build your self-confidence to maintain this approach to your career (and life) in the future (beyond coaching).
Pathways Collective coaching is pragmatic, practical, spiritual and holistic. Whilst I focus on career coaching and career transitions, I believe our home and work lives are interdependent. I look at individuals as whole beings with rounded interests and needs. I examine and challenge client assumptions, with a view to what more is possible.
Coaches are change agents, who serves the interests of those we coach (YOU).
Take ownership of your life today, and learn how to achieve your goals with balance.
