Career Ownership Coach: We help people explore possibilities to select the business option that best fits their goals, needs and expectations.

You know how you feel when you're stuck in your job or career and you just know there must be a better way to make a living? You know how you feel when you'd like to work for yourself but you don't know how to go about getting there? I can help you solve these problems. I do this by walking my clients through a discovery process to help them realize their career goals. Best of all, there's no cost

to you for my service. LET ME HELP YOU LOOK AT THE POSSIBILITIES OF MOVING FROM EMPLOYMENT TO EMPOWERMENT. My clients are most often:
1.) Seeking new challenges.
2.) Mid-career or later with significant experience.
3.) Frustrated by the circumstances of their business, current job or career path.
4.) Unemployed due to downsizing, rightsizing, and forced retirement.
5.) Overqualified for most positions available today.
6.) Tired of working hard to fulfill someone else's dream of wealth.
7.) Part of the 70% of the adult population looking to be self-sufficient and decided it's time to take the chance and be part of the 5% that actually act on it! If you've ever wondered what it would be like to control your own career destiny, be self-sufficient, and run your own business - without having to "invent" it, then we need to chat! I am a business owner. I joined The Entrepreneur's Source because of my desire to help people achieve their career and personal dreams. Main TES page:

3M's Failure Was Their Beginning

3M started as Minnesota Mining and Manufacturing—and completely FAILED at mining.

Today? They're a $34.2 billion innovation giant (3M Annual Report 2023). They didn't find a better mining job. They pivoted to creating 60,000 products, including Post-it Notes.

At The Entrepreneur's Source® (TES), we've spent 40 years showing people that getting fired, laid off, or reaching retirement age isn't an ending—it's an invitation to pivot.

Think about it:

• 3M failed at mining → became innovation leaders
• IKEA sold pens → became a $48 billion furniture empire
• CVS ran discount stores → became healthcare giants

They all share one trait: They were willing to change their identity.

Facing age discrimination in your job search?

Feeling invisible to employers despite decades of experience?

You're not imagining it:

64% of workers age 50+ have reported seeing or experiencing age discrimination in the workplace - AARP Research, 2024

At The Entrepreneur's Source®, we see this challenge differently.

How does your corporate experience translate into Career Ownership?

The answer might surprise you - it's pure gold!

Every skill you've developed is now your currency.

The Global Employability Skills review of 25 major studies identified 87 employability skills, with communication, problem-solving, teamwork, adaptability, and willingness to learn as the most transferable to career ownership.

In over 40 years of coaching professionals, we've seen the magic happen when someone realizes their transferable skills are precisely what career ownership requires.

Our most successful clients often say, "I had no idea I was already prepared for this!"

The corporate world has trained you - a Career Ownership Coach™ helps you map your experience to the perfect opportunity where your skills become your competitive advantage.

You're more ready than you think.

When Hope Becomes Horror

That "perfect" job offer in your inbox? The one with the excellent salary, remote work, and immediate start? Check your excitement.

It might be a scam. The FTC reports job scam reports tripled from 2020 to 2024, with losses jumping from $90 million to $501 million.

After 40 years of helping professionals navigate career transitions, we've never seen anything like this at The Entrepreneur's Source®. The dismal job market has become a haven for scammers. They know precisely what you want to hear, and then they ask for money!

The National Consumer League documents cases where job scam victims proceeded despite suspicions due to financial need.

Here's what scammers don't want you to know - while you're vulnerable in your job search, you're powerful when creating opportunities.

As a Career Ownership Coach™, I provide REAL pathways.

The best defense against fake opportunities? Creating a real one.

Exhausted from the constant struggle between career demands and family time?

76% of employees report that work stress affects the amount or quality of their sleep (Mental Health America, 2024 Mind the Workplace Report) and at least 500,000 Canadians miss work due to mental illness every week (Canadian Mental Health Association, 2024)

After coaching thousands of professionals through career transitions, we recognize that the traditional employment model is flawed.

You don't have to accept it.

My clients consistently tell me that career ownership gave them something their corporate job never could: control over their schedule and the ability to prioritize their family.

Career ownership isn't about working more hours— it's about working the RIGHT hours for YOUR life.

A Career Ownership Coach™ helps you explore avenues that support your lifestyle goals while building the life you actually want. Ready to explore your options?

Here's the incredible reality:

5.4 million new business applications were filed in 2023 (U.S. Census Bureau) - and success rates are climbing!

At The Entrepreneur's Source®, we've been empowering Career Ownership since 1984.

What's different now? Our clients are thriving because they recognized that market disruption creates opportunity, not obstacles.

And more good news: You don't have to reinvent the wheel - you can leverage proven systems with modern tools. I can show you exactly how to capitalize on today's unprecedented opportunities.

Your entrepreneurial moment is NOW.

The New Language of Workplace Dysfunction

Need a dictionary to understand what's happening at your job?

"Quiet quitting," "career cushioning," "shift shock" - when did work become so complicated? These aren't just buzzwords. They're symptoms of a dying employment model.

At The Entrepreneur's Source®, we recognize these terms for what they are: Survival strategies for a broken system.
• 50% of workers are "quiet quitting" (Gallup)
• 96% are looking for new jobs but won't leave (Conference Board)
• 40% of job postings are fake "ghost jobs" (Resume Builder)

As your Career Ownership Coach™, I won’t teach you new coping terms. The solution is ownership of your income source. We explore career ownership strategies. The workplace dictionary continues to grow because the workplace keeps failing.

Stop learning survival terms. Start writing your ownership story.

Still believing that corporate employment offers job security?

Let's talk reality.

The median job tenure in the US is 3.9 years (Bureau of Labor Statistics, January 2024). Only 35.9% of Canadian workers aged 25 and over have been with the same employer for 10 years or more (Statistics Canada, October 2024).

That's not security—that's instability with a false sense of safety.

Our millennial client, Devan, understands that absolute security comes from owning your income source, not depending on someone else's business decisions. She has made a decision early in her career that success depends on her efforts, not corporate whims. You can't be "laid off" from your own business.

Would you rather depend on one employer's success...Or build your own?

As your Career Ownership Coach™, we can explore business opportunities that create absolute security—the kind that comes from controlling your professional destiny.

Stop renting your career.

We Thrive on Learning New Things

Wondering if your brain is slowly atrophying from routine and repetition?

Here's what science confirms about human nature. We are literally wired to thrive on learning new things.

Learning new skills releases dopamine and creates new neural pathways, with adults who learn new things regularly showing 25% less cognitive decline (Mayo Clinic, 2024).

At The Entrepreneur's Source®, we've witnessed this transformation in thousands of clients over 40 years. Our clients consistently tell us that business ownership reignited their passion for learning and personal development.

I can help you find certainty in your future during uncertain times by building a stable business foundation that continuously strengthens and evolves.

Your brain craves growth. Give it what it needs.

When the Job Search Becomes a Marathon: Month 6 of job searching and still sending resumes into the void?

You're not alone. Over 1.6 million Americans are currently experiencing long-term unemployment (U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics). That's 1 in 4 job seekers stuck in the same marathon.

After over 40 years of guiding professionals through career transitions, we know what happens at the 6-month mark: Callback rates DROP 45% (University of Chicago). The game is rigged against you.

Read More: https://jderman.esourcecoach.com/blog/?utm_source=Soci_Parameter
But what if you stopped playing their game?

As your Career Ownership Coach™, I will help you shift from job seeker to opportunity creator. We don't polish resumes - we help you build something NO employer can take away.

Stop begging for permission to work.
Start building something that is yours.

The Happiness Crisis: Feeling like something is fundamentally broken about work in North America?

You're not imagining it.

For the first time in the Gallup report's 12-year history, the U.S. didn't earn a spot among the top 20 happiest countries in the world. It's No. 23 -- down from a 15th-place finish the previous year. Canada fared better at No.15, but even Canadian workers face challenges.

When 49% of American and Canadian workers report experiencing work-related stress daily (Gallup, State of the Global Workplace 2024), national happiness suffers.

At The Entrepreneur's Source®, we've spent over 40 years helping North American professionals escape the systems that contribute to this unhappiness epidemic.

My clients discover that career ownership offers prioritizing work-life balance and autonomy—precisely what a happy career needs.

A Career Ownership Coach™ can help you find certainty in your future during uncertain times by building a foundation for both financial success AND personal fulfillment.

Don't accept unhappiness as usual. Choose a different path: https://jderman.esourcecoach.com/schedule-a-call/?utm_source=Soci_Parameter

Looking back on your career, will you be proud of what you built?

Or will you wonder what could have been if you'd taken control?

The average person works approximately 90,000 hours over their lifetime, which equals roughly 13 years and 2 months of a typical 50-year employment period (Apollo Technical, Career Change Statistics, 2025)

There are two types of professionals:
• Those who work for someone else's dream.
• And those who build their own.

The difference in their stories is profound:
• Employees retire with memories of projects they contributed to.
• Employees leave behind a resume.
• Career Ownership builds and can leave behind a legacy.

As your Career Ownership Coach™, I help you find opportunities—and find a mission you find worth pursuing.

Your legacy is waiting.
