You're not failing.
That's not the problem.
The problem is you've succeeded at something you're no longer sure you want.
You've hit the targets. Earned the title. Built the reputation. And somewhere along the way, the work stopped feeling like yours.
Now you wake up on Monday with a low-grade dread you can't quite name. You sit in meetings thinking, "I don't care about any of this." You watch the years tick by and wonder how you got here and whether this is really it for the next 15 years.
You've thought about leaving. Of course you have.
But every option feels risky:
...and you're signing up for more of the same—the Sunday anxiety, the pointless politics, the slow erosion of energy.
...and you risk your income, your identity, your family's stability. What if you make the wrong move? What if you're just burned out and need a holiday?
...and suddenly you're gambling 20 years of credibility on a fantasy that might not work.
So you do what most smart, successful people do.
You stay. You scroll job boards at midnight. You save articles you never read. You tell yourself, "Maybe next year."
And another year passes.
The Key Benefits of the Career Relaunch Protocol
By the end of the 12 weeks, you will have:
I'm Negar Farahmand.
Founder of AHX Partners and creator of the Career Relaunch Protocol.
I spent 20 years inside the corporate machine. I know what it's like to have the impressive title, the good salary, and the quiet dread that none of it fits anymore. I know the fear of "torching" everything you've built. And I know the paralysis of having too much to lose to make a reckless move, but too much self-awareness to keep pretending it's fine.
I also know the way out.
Over the past several years, I've helped senior leaders across consulting, tech, finance, and professional services move from "successful but stuck" to intentional, aligned careers without blowing up their income, reputation, or family stability.
This isn't about following your passion. It's about designing the next chapter that actually works — strategically, financially, and personally.
I built the Career Relaunch Protocol because I needed it myself. And because I kept meeting brilliant people who were wasting years in roles they'd outgrown, waiting for certainty that was never going to arrive.
My role is simple: I'm the straight-talking guide who helps you find the clarity that courage requires. I won't tell you what to do. I'll help you see what you actually want and build a realistic path to get there.

Words from our clients
"I had the titles and the salary, but I was empty. Negar didn't just give me 'advice'; she gave me a strategic process to dismantle my fear and build a portfolio career that actually works for my family."
Senior Director, Tech
Rose, Sustainability Leader
"I was drowning in the day-to-day - too busy to think about what I actually wanted. Negar asks the hard questions and challenges the limitations you put on yourself. Her consulting background means the solutions aren't fluffy, they're practical and realistic. If you're stuck in a senior role, wondering 'is this it?', she'll help you see what's actually possible."Â
Emer, Consulting Leader
"I'd been going back and forth on my next move for over a year. Negar gave me the clarity and confidence to finally make a decision. Her approach is holistic, she sees you as a whole person, not just your CV. I walked away knowing exactly what I wanted and how to get there without blowing up my life."Â
Gillian, Senior Principal
The Career Relaunch Protocol is built on five pillars
Each designed to close a specific gap that keeps senior professionals stuck
Pillar 1: Unfiltered Reality Check
You stop pretending it's fine.
Before you can fix anything, you need to see what's actually broken. Not the version you tell colleagues. Not the "I should be grateful" story. The real picture.
Deliverable: Your Current Reality Brief — a clear-eyed diagnosis of where you are and why you're stuck.
Pillar 2: Inner Compass Reboot
You remember who you are underneath the title.
Twenty years in, your identity gets tangled up in your role. This is where we strip that away and ask:
Deliverable: Your Inner Compass Document — updated values, non-negotiables, and decision filters for your next chapter.
Pillar 3: Future Game Design
You turn "maybe" into clear options.
No more vague "I'll figure it out." We map different futures as strategic plays:
Each has rules, winning conditions, trade-offs. You choose which game you actually want to play.
Deliverable: Your Future Plays Map — 2-3 concrete options you've pressure-tested against your real constraints.
Pillar 4: Strategic Pathway Mapping
You build the bridge before you cross it.
Once you know where you're going, we design how to get there without blowing up your life. This isn't "follow your dreams and hope." This is:
Deliverable: Your 12-Month Transition Roadmap — the exact sequence of moves to get from here to there.
Pillar 5: Protected Momentum Systems
You lock in progress so you don't backslide.
The biggest threat to your transition isn't fear. It's old patterns, work demands, and the seductive comfort of staying put. We build:
Deliverable: Your Momentum System — so progress continues even when life gets busy.
Here's how it works:Â
Step 1: The Fit Conversation
A short call to make sure the Protocol is right for your situation and that you're ready to do the work.
Step 2: The 12-Week Protocol
We diagnose what's actually going on, design your options, and build a transition roadmap that protects what matters.
Step 3: You Move
You leave with a clear direction, a 90-day action plan, and the confidence to execute - whether that means staying, pivoting, or building something new.
 WHO THIS IS FOR
This is for you if:
- ✓ You're a senior professional (15-25 years in) in corporate — consulting, tech, finance, pharma, or professional services.
- âś“ You've recently been made redundant (or see it coming) and refuse to panic-apply into roles that don't fit.
- ✓ You're successful on paper — good income, strong reputation — but privately questioning everything.
- âś“ You've been "thinking about it" for 6+ months without making a move.
- ✓ You have real constraints — mortgage, school fees — that make "just quitting" feel reckless.
- âś“ You want strategic support, not cheerleading. You need a process, not a pep talk.
- âś“ You're ready to invest time and money because the cost of staying stuck is higher.
This is NOT for you if:

- âś• You're not willing to do the work between sessions.
- âś• You expect transformation without investment.
- âś• You're in active crisis (burnout, mental health emergency).

A Note From Negar
If you've read this far, something here resonated.
Maybe it's the Sunday dread. Maybe it's the quiet realisation that you've outgrown the box you were rewarded for staying in. Maybe it's the exhaustion of circling the same decision for months or years.
I've been there. And I built this programme because I wish it had existed when I needed it.
My promise to you is simple: I won't give you fluffy advice or tell you to "follow your passion." I'll help you see your situation clearly, design options that actually work, and build a path forward that doesn't require you to blow up your life.
If that sounds like what you need, I'd love to work with you.
Negar
