“There have been people that go through life just doing rather than really thinking about, why am I doing what I am doing? or even do I even want to do whatever it is I am doing?” Lametra B Off 

Welcome to Hoda’s Career Info. I’m your host, Hoda Kilani, Career & Academic Coach at Right Career Fit.

Coaching is all about storytelling; helping you to envision and tell your story your way. 

I put this series together to share stories of inspiring career people from across the globe. I hope their stories motivate you to envision your career story, discover your road to success or recast your career path. And more importantly, that you love these career stories as much as I do.

Our guest today is author and Principal Coach and founder of LBO Career Coaching & Consulting LLC Lametra B. Off.

Lametra is a Christian, and first considered the concept of uniqueness as a soldier in the U.S. Army, where seemingly only conformity exists. Although it makes sense to conform to the rules of the Army, soldiers are people first and just as unique as a diamond or a snowflake, a metaphor she used to title her new book, “Becoming a Diamond Snowflake: Discover Your YOUnique Brilliance” which we will be discussing in this episode. #diamondsnowflake 

While teaching in the government sector, authenticity was her competitive advantage. For over 20 years, she has held various leadership positions in the U.S. Army, government sector, banking and non-profit industries. Since 2014, she has trained thousands of leaders, helping them accomplish their goals. She is known for being an authentic leader, an educator and her laughter. Her unique approach blends coaching, fun, and training for teams, organizations, individual clients and students to increase their personal and professional performance. 
Lametra Off has a degree in Business Administration and a Master of Human Resources Training & Development with a specialization in Adult Training and Development. She is also a Certified Career Services Provider via the National Career Development Association; Global Career Development Facilitator via the Center for Credentialing and Education; a Certified Professional Coach from iPEC; has a Professional Certified Coach designation from the International Coaching Federation (ICF); and is certified to administer several proprietary leadership related assessments essential to crafting an individual’s leadership success plan. 

Lametra is the founder and owner of LBO Career Coaching & Consulting, LLC, a service-disabled, minority, veteran-owned and operated, woman-owned leadership development company. She has coached business owners and leaders from Google, Meta, U.S. Air Force, Fortune 500 companies, government agencies to lead beyond organizational objectives.

A Diamond Snowflake - Lametra Off S 5 Ep 4

“Educational perspectives are useful not just for thinking about how do we work with a class full of pupils or college students, it is also useful for one to one because you’re thinking about, well what would my clients have learned that they can go away and implement in their life?"

Our guest today is Founder of TeenReconnect, Emer O Donnell. 

Emer O Donnell is a behavioural change coach with a background in psychology and 20+ years working in global organisations.

She focuses her work on supporting parents to help their children to thrive, empowering youth professionals to increase their skills, and supporting organisations that wish to become more effective in this space. She emphasises the importance of developing well-being first for sustained performance.

Emer is also the author of ‘Understanding Teen Stress & Anxiety; A Parent’s Guide To Building Love And Connection and has created the digital Q Pathfinder coaching app. It is a personalised tool used as part of her 7Q TeenReconnect coaching programme for young people so they understand who they uniquely are and can learn how that plays out in their career choices, confidence, learning, stress, and relationships.  
Emer is passionate about making a difference, believing young people are the future. She also knows that if you don’t know who you are it is way harder to create a life you love.

This is Hoda’s Career Info. I’m your host, Hoda Kilani, Career & Academic Coach.

Coaching is all about storytelling; helping you to envision and tell your story your way. 

This series is about sharing stories of inspiring career people from across the globe. I hope their stories motivate you to envision your career story, discover your road to success or recast your career path. Most importantly, that you benefit from these career stories as much as I do.

Our guest today is Sharon Vandermeer - Founder, On the Ball Personnel Australasia. 

Who is Sharon Vandermeer?

Our guest, Sharon Vandermeer, provided her bio in the first person, so I thought it would be cool to read it as provided and I look forward to your feedback – here we go!

Raised in the country, I learned early on the value of hard work, community, and resourcefulness. When I made the move to Melbourne, I quickly found my calling in recruitment—a space where I could connect people with opportunities that change lives. After a few years in the industry, I took the leap and founded On the Ball Personnel Australasia, allowing me to fully embrace my passion for service. Every day, I get to bridge the gap between talented job seekers and businesses looking for the right talent, ensuring both thrive.

With a commitment to providing real value, my approach is built on authenticity, fun, and a deep understanding of what makes great workplaces tick. Recruitment isn’t just about filling roles—it’s about building careers, strengthening businesses, and making sure people are set up for long-term success. It’s been one of the most rewarding spaces to play and make a difference in!

Stay with me as Sharon Vandermeer the meaning and value of the ideal onboarding process, the recruitment process and so much more. 

You can connect with Sharon on LinkedIn.

In this episode, Sharon shares, “If I’m ever in a position where I’m uncomfortable that means that growth is happening”. And my question to you, how often do you get uncomfortable in your work? Comment and share your thoughts and experiences.
