Meet Yumi Wilson

As a tenured professor, podcast host, and career & life transformation coach, I empower high-achievers to navigate career shifts, personal reinvention, and work-life balance with clarity and confidence. My coaching helps individuals reframe their narratives, break through obstacles, and take intentional action toward their next chapter. Through my podcast, ‘The Journalist’s Guide to AI,’ I explore how emerging technology is reshaping media and communication. In addition to coaching, I speak at conferences and lead workshops on AI literacy, media innovation, and career transitions in an evolving digital world.

As a former corporate communications manager at LinkedIn, I had the privilege of working with journalists, communicators, and executives around the world, helping them strengthen their professional presence and navigate career transitions. Along the way, I saw firsthand how overwhelming change can feel—whether it’s shifting industries, stepping into a leadership role, or starting over completely.

That’s why I coach. I meet people where they are and help them move forward with clarity, confidence, and purpose. Whether you’re figuring out your next career move, refining your personal brand, or simply looking for support through life’s transitions, I’m here to guide you.

Through one-on-one coaching, resume and LinkedIn optimization, speaking engagements, and my podcast, I help people embrace change, rediscover their strengths, and take meaningful action. My mission is simple: to help you step into your next chapter feeling empowered, not stuck.
