Career Development Coach, Ruth Beauchamp

I’m deeply committed to transforming careers, facilitating growth, and helping individuals find work that aligns with their strengths, values, and interests. Whether you’re exploring your first career path or navigating a major shift, consider me your partner on this journey.

My Approach: Clarify, Uplift, Propel

For over a decade, I’ve guided thousands through career transitions, helping them connect to purposeful, fulfilling work. My coaching is both strategic and supportive—designed to help you clarify your goals, build confidence, and take actionable steps toward the career that fits you best.

How It All started

My professional journey began in the technical field of food science and product development. While I appreciated the innovation, I soon realized my real fulfillment came from supporting the growth of people more than developing products. That insight launched my own career change and opened the door to education, where I spent the next 10 years teaching in classrooms and another 10+ leading professional development for and coaching educators.

During that time, I founded Oranda, a not-for-profit dedicated to equipping educators with tools and resources to improve their practice. The name Oranda was inspired by both the classic idea of “teaching others to fish” and the Oranda goldfish itself—a curious, resilient creature with a brain-like mass on its head that thrives under optimal conditions. It is my belief that as humans, we reach our potential in environments that support growth, and connection.

Oranda was born from my belief that transformation and optimal growth happen best in nurturing, supportive environments. 

The Pivot to Career Coaching

After decades of working with educators, I was inspired to expand my career coaching skills and offerings. I saw the same desires in the broader workforce: the need for uplifting, purposeful and fulfilling careers. 

I transitioned into career development coaching where I specialize in supporting career changers, mid-life professionals, and youth & students seeking clarity, confidence, and practical tools to find meaningful work.
