How it works

Three steps to the right person

One conversation with someone who has already stood where you stand now.

  1. Say what you're weighing

    Changing careers, leaving your job, leading for the first time, going independent or moving abroad. Pick the moment that fits.

  2. Pick someone who has actually done it

    Every card shows the path a Guide took and the languages they speak. You choose.

  3. Talk 1:1 by video

    Book a slot that suits you both. The first conversation is free, and what you do with it is your decision.

First session free

Your first conversation is free.

Pick the person who has made the move you're weighing. The first 1:1 session costs nothing, and you decide afterwards whether you want a second one.

  • One free 1:1 video session with a real Guide
  • You choose the Guide, not an algorithm
  • Every Guide has made the move themselves

10 Guides who made the move

See all Guides

Real moves, not endless profiles.

Every guide on Nawaya has made the move themselves, and we read every new profile. We are adding people every week, and the bar stays the same: you have to have made the move yourself. If your move is not here yet, tell us which one you mean.

Which move are you looking for?

You've already made a move someone is weighing right now?

Then you're just as welcome as a Guide. You don't have to be a coach. You set your price and your hours, and you talk 1:1 by video with someone facing the decision you've already made.

FAQ

Questions before your first conversation

The short answers. If yours is missing, write to us.

ChatGPT knows every option but doesn't know you and has never lived through any of it. YouTube speaks to millions and knows no one. Friends mean well, but most of them never made the move you're considering, and a colleague who has stayed for fifteen years can't tell you what leaving is like. A Guide has done it, listens to your case and asks back.

Stories from people who made the move.

Once a week, one real career path from a Nawaya Guide, told briefly.
