" I don't just motivate - I rewire how people and organizations approach
career decisions, leadership, and impact."
Hey, I’m Nicole Darby. Certified Career Coach and Founder of Career Cafe' — where real people, real companies, and real growth meet. If you're stuck, overwhelmed, or wondering "what’s next?" — I see you. I am you.
I’m a Black, neurodiverse woman who left the corporate grind to build a life and career on my own terms. I’ve survived layoffs, toxic bosses, impossible promotions, career pivots — and the wild ride of consulting full time. I didn’t just read about career transformation in a book. I lived it.
And now, I help others do the same — at every stage, and every level.
