Welcome to a Transformative Journey Shaped by Experience, Resilience, and a Deep Understanding of the Human Condition.

Hi, I’m Penny Marion—founder of Resilience Career Coaching. I bring over 20 years of experience in the insurance and employee benefits industry, combined with specialized training in career development, trauma recovery, and holistic coaching practices.

My work centers on helping people navigate complex career transitions with clarity, purpose, and self-compassion. I’m certified in career coaching, Ikigai coaching, Imposter Syndrome recovery, and trauma-trained coaching. Whether you’re facing burnout, healing from workplace trauma, or reimagining your next chapter, I provide a structured and supportive space to help you move forward.

I’m also proud to be an affiliate of the Workplace Bullying Institute, where I advocate for safer, more respectful workplaces. My approach is deeply informed by my own lived experiences and those of my clients—people who have had to advocate for themselves in systems that didn’t always understand their needs.

At the heart of my work is the belief that your story matters. You deserve a career—and a life—that reflects your values, honors your strengths, and supports your well-being. I’m here to help you rediscover your confidence, realign with your purpose, and take courageous steps toward the future you deserve.
