Meet Amanda Founder of PathAhead Empowerment
The path to empowerment isn’t always straightforward — but it is always possible. Every woman holds the power to rebuild, to redefine, and to rise into the life and work she deserves.
I’m Amanda, founder of PathAhead Empowerment, where practical career support meets intuitive guidance. With over 10 years of experience in career counselling, employment coaching, and women’s empowerment, I bring both heart and strategy to every partnership with companies, non-profits, and community organizations.My own path hasn’t been easy. I’ve faced obstacles and walked through difficult seasons, and I’ve learned that the most important thing is to keep moving forward. Those experiences shaped not only my resilience but also my deep empathy for the women I now support through the organizations that serve them.I’ve had the honour of walking alongside women navigating major transitions, and I do this work because I love to see someone reach their goals — their next step, their new chapter, their destination. Being part of that journey, even indirectly, is my greatest privilege.I offer deep listening, real-world tools, and an unwavering belief in the potential of every woman — delivered through strong partnerships with the organizations dedicated to serving them.Whether your organization is helping women rewrite their resumes or rewrite their stories, PathAhead Empowerment is here to support you — with compassion, clarity, and a deep commitment to growth.

The Need for Career Empowerment Services
Across Canada, many women face significant barriers to entering or re-entering the workforce — from the trauma of abuse, to adapting as newcomers, to navigating disabilities or systemic undervaluation. These challenges can delay independence, confidence, and long-term employment success.Even when women are employed, systemic factors continue to affect career growth. Many step back from work to raise children or manage family responsibilities, and too often this means losing seniority, opportunities for advancement, and equal pay. These interruptions can leave women underemployed, overlooked, or starting again from the bottom despite years of experience.Organizations do extraordinary work to support women, but staff often don’t have the time or specialized expertise to provide career-focused, trauma-informed guidance.That’s where PathAhead Empowerment comes in. We partner with companies, non-profits, and community agencies to fill this gap with accessible, fully virtual programs that build confidence, restore momentum, and support sustainable return-to-work outcomes.
1 in 3 women experience abuse in their lifetime, often disrupting education and careers.
Newcomer women face nearly double the unemployment rate of Canadian-born women.
Women with disabilities are significantly more likely to be underemployed or excluded from the workforce.
Caregiving interruptions — raising children or managing family responsibilities often cost women their seniority, career progression, and fair compensation.
Empowerment isn’t a luxury — it’s a necessity for building inclusive workplaces and resilient communities.
