What happens when you choose radical self-acceptance and pursue your true purpose? Inesse Semeah knows firsthand the power of pivoting toward authenticity, even when the path seems unclear.
After spending 15 years in corporate DEI work, Inesse found herself increasingly frustrated with how companies prioritized compliance over genuine transformation. She witnessed discrimination investigations that went nowhere and diversity initiatives that functioned more as marketing than meaningful change. The pandemic created a moment of collective reckoning, with countless professionals questioning whether their careers reflected their deepest values. This cultural shift inspired Inesse to launch Pivoting to Purpose, a coaching practice designed specifically for professional women feeling trapped between responsibility and unfulfilled potential.
Unlike many coaches, Inesse doesn't demand clients make dramatic overnight changes. She understands that pivoting happens gradually, with small adjustments accumulating into significant transformation. Drawing from her own experience failing the New York Bar Exam multiple times - what initially felt like devastation ultimately freed her to discover skills and passions that would have remained dormant in a traditional legal career. Now she helps others recognize how apparent roadblocks might actually be redirecting them toward more authentic paths.
The core of Inesse's philosophy centers on three principles: bravery, radical acceptance, and radical self-love. She challenges clients to question limiting narratives while finding joy through activities that quiet the mind - whether through physical movement, creative expression, or mindful presence.
