I started Self Science a few months ago, after being impacted by a round of layoffs. The job market was bleak and I was concerned that I’d approach my search like I do most challenges: full on, and often at the expense of myself, those I love, and my health. I had started to grow in those areas and wanted structure to see if there was a kinder way I could navigate the uncertainty.After a few weeks of tracking I noticed a common theme emerge: I felt more satisfied with my life, and my job search was more effective, when I took care of myself. When I exercised, focused on my loved ones, and meditated. I started noticing that foundation help me make the most of opportunities when they came up, and enjoy my life when they seemed slim. I wasn’t just pushing through. I was living my life, enjoying it most days, and giving myself permission to take care of myself on days I didn’t.For me, Self Science was a powerful framework that has helped me learn from my choices and their impact. It’s helped me connect the dots in a new way, and make a series of small pivots that, cumulatively, have lead me closer to the life I want to live.

Working with Dave was one of the best things I did for my career journey. We connected at the end of a job interview process after I received an offer. Despite receiving the high end of the listed range Dave helped to get more. He remained “on call” for a few days as the conversation carried over and was great with texts and phone calls. His approach to workshopping different solutions was super collaborative; he always made sure to ask for my thoughts and integrate my suggestions.

I’ve been working with Dave for almost year and he has taught me things I never thought possible. He taught me how to see the value in the skills I bring to the table, encouraged professional confidence even when things aren’t going my way, and most importantly, he helped me realize the I’m a valuable asset to the company. He’s encouraging, consistent and always available when I needed advice. If you are struggling with your career and don’t know where to start, I’d highly recommend working with Dave. He truly is the best!

I heard about Dave through my best friend. Dave helped my best friend negotiate the highest salary I’ve ever heard of in our field.Dave helped me negotiate a higher salary offer when I would've otherwise taken exactly what was offered to me. I have come to feel calm and casual about negotiating job offers.Our work together started with job interviews and negotiations, but Dave's greatest impact was on my actual job performance and the effects that my work had on my overall mental health. If you are a perfectionist, if you procrastinate, if you have impostor syndrome — Dave is the guy for you.
