“I got stuck many times in my career and life. Getting unstuck required me to go deep into the psychological mechanisms that kept slowing me down. Overcoming those was challenging, yet it was transformative for my growth. I want to use the learnings from getting unstuck to help others transform their career.”
Lan Doan, MBA
- Havard Business School MBA
- Ex-Project Leader. Boston Consulting Group
- Ex-CEO of TAPTAP
“”In my years as a strategic problem solver, I've learned that having clear goals is crucial, yet often overlooked. Pursuing a fulfilling career amidst daily challenges is tough, and it's even harder without knowing what you truly want. So, finding that conviction is essential. Meanwhile, it's important to keep building your skills and network so that once you have your conviction, you can quickly forge a path to achieve it.”

REFERENCES:
- Visualization is a powerful concept for personal and professional transformation. Neuroscience research shows that mental imagery activates the same neural pathways as actual experiences, which can enhance performance and goal achievement. This mental practice strengthens neural connections and can improve skills, reduce anxiety, and boost motivation, making visualization a valuable tool for both personal and professional development (Kosslyn, 1994; Schacter, 1996; Holmes & Collins, 2001).
- Working backwards from a visualization of one's future self to the present state is a highly effective approach to achieving larger goals. This method, often referred to as "backcasting," involves envisioning a detailed and vivid picture of the desired future outcome and then identifying the necessary steps to reach that state. Research in neuroscience and psychology supports the efficacy of this approach, highlighting its potential to overcome the limitations associated with a forward-looking mindset (Psychology Today).
- Having a plan aligned with your values is associated with greater levels of self-belief and sense of agency (Code et al., Front. Education 2020).
- Scientific research indicates that when the brain is affected by stress-related chemicals, it becomes less creative and less capable of devising long-term solutions. Our classes and group coaching sessions avoid judgment or evaluation, which keeps clients receptive to new ideas and enhances their ability to tap into their unique creativity (Benedekt at al., Neuropsychologica 2014).
what our past clients say
BIANCA B. (29) - CEO & CO-FOUNDER OF WEB3 STARTUP
“Thi employs an integrative approach to coaching, which has been instrumental in helping me identify the psychological barriers that were hindering my career progress. With this newfound clarity, Thi guided me in creating actionable milestones, ultimately leading to the establishment of my own company.”
Ly N. (33) - CEO and owner of private medical clinics
“I often experienced trouble at work relationships and got stuck progressing in my career. Thi helped me realize that the way we manage our work relationships is intricately linked to past relationships and trauma. Through understanding their connection, I am managing a healthier and more productive work environment now.”
Lam N. (16) - High-School student
“I was a low life wrapped in the narrow Asian plan of becoming a doctor/businessman. Being intimidated by his accolades I didn’t really hope for meaningful discussion with Anh Thi. But his humility and willingness to help has helped me realize that expectations, be it societal or parental, are for no one to carry. And that simple realization has quite literally transformed me.”
trang N. (34) - Director at 1000+ People Tech Company
"Lan has helped me look at the problem differently and adopt a more productive perspective. She empowers me to make a choice that is consistent with my values, instead of getting stuck in the vicious cycle of worry and uncertainty."
phuoc B. (27) - Investment Analyst
“Chi Lan was very thoughtful and direct. We explored further my career vision, as well as the challenges I would have to face. This session not only deepened my self-awareness but also forced me to devise a concrete plan to confront these challenges.”
Van t. (35) - Growth Manager at a Global conglomerate
“I was challenged to re-examine my values, using both my intuition and analytical mind. Lan empathized deeply with me and encouraged me to embrace my truest self.”
FAQ
Is the unstuck camp in-person or virtual?
The camp takes place in-person. The only virtual part is the pre-camp assessment, which we will email you as an online survey.
How do i qualify as a participant?
There is no formal qualification criteria. The participants who benefit most from our program are those who feel stuck despite doing extensive research on careers and self-help and want to make the necessary changes to achieve a successful and happy career.
Will the workshop be in English or vietnamese?
The majority of our coaching will be in Vietnamese. However, we expect a fluent level of English from our participants for ease of communication, where English terms cannot be readily translated into Vietnamese.
How are the Unstuck Coaches different from other coaches?
Besides their coaching expertise, Thi and Lan have years of industry experience in different leadership positions, industry verticals, and geographies. What makes them special is that they can help you find clarity about what you want but also give practical insights on the job market demands that your career goals should align with.
Do unstuck coaches help me with job applications or internships?
The primary goal of UNSTUCK is to give you clarity over what you want for your career and how to achieve it. We do not provide internships or job opportunities, but we are willing to advise you on job and career sectors we are familiar with in our 1:1 session after the workshop.
how is unstuck different from mental health counseling?
While we take into consideration your past, the primary goal of UNSTUCK is to improve your career prospects practically. This is different from mental health counseling which helps people heal from present and past trauma.
How do I know that my personal information is handled securely?
During the camp, you'll have the opportunity for personal reflection and can share your thoughts in group discussions as much as you feel comfortable. As coaches, Thi and Lan will uphold their ethical obligations. Additionally, participants will sign a statement pledging to keep any private and personal information shared during the group coaching sessions confidential.
What happens after the UNSTUCK Bootcamp is completed?
After the camp is completed, you are welcome to stay in touch with our coaches and continue to work on your goals with them.
