Wild About Career is a program dedicated to developing careers in the creative industry. We provide effective tools, a structured approach, and professional support to help you reach your career goals.
A coach is a specialist who helps people achieve their goals, unlock their potential, and move forward. Coaches do not give direct advice; instead, they guide you toward your own solutions.
They ask deep, structured questions.
They help you realize what you truly want.
They help you overcome internal barriers such as fear, procrastination, and self-doubt.
They support you in achieving your career, creative, or personal goals.
They don’t teach or instruct — they work through dialogue and awareness.

WHY YOU NEED A COACH:
… You don’t just want to "do projects" — you want to expand, think bigger, and move more confidently in your career.
→ A coach helps you reach a new level in your mindset and actions.
A mentor is a recognized expert in their professional field, with hands-on experience and proven achievements. They have already walked the path you’re about to take — so they can share not just theory, but real, experience-based knowledge.

… You are facing challenges that others in the industry have already solved.
… A mentor gives you access to tools, resources, and professional connections that have proven successful in practice.
5. To rely on proven solutions instead of starting from scratch
… You have goals and ambition, but no structured approach.
… A mentor helps you build a cohesive development plan — outlining milestones, setting priorities, and establishing checkpoints.
4. To ensure steady professional growth:
… You’re taking action but aren’t sure if it’s right. You lack benchmarks and a clear sense of outcomes.
→ A mentor provides objective feedback, identifies weak points, and suggests solutions based on real experience.
3. To receive expert feedback and reduce risks:
… You jump between tasks, can’t see the full picture, and are moving on instinct.
→ A mentor helps you stay focused on what matters and charts a clear route to your goals.
2. To act with focus instead of chaos:
… You dream of working in fashion or launching a brand, but you don’t know how the industry actually functions.
→ A mentor has already been there. They show how the industry works from the inside and help you see where to go next in your unique situation.
