The Expert
Caroline Sangal
Dr. Caroline Sangal is a life-first career strategist, speaker, and creator of the Next Success Method, a whole person approach to navigating career and life transitions with clarity, confidence, and peace. With a background in science, executive recruitment, and leadership, Caroline blends data-driven insight with deep emotional intelligence to help women reconnect with who they are and what they do best.
After earning a Ph.D. in Polymer Science and building a successful career in the chemical industry, Caroline experienced her own turning point. After a layoff, then being a stay-at-home parent, she returned to work as an executive recruiter and coached hundreds of people through chemical industry career transitions. Wanting to make a bigger impact, she founded Next Success, an elite and transformative career coaching company.
Despite checking every box of “success,” Caroline realized she had been living by expectations, not alignment. That insight became the catalyst for her mission: to help others create lives and careers that feel true, energizing, and purpose-filled.
She helps students choosing a college major or first career, professionals seeking something more, and women at a crossroads who want clarity, purpose, and peace. Through coaching, assessments, and her podcast Your Next Success, Caroline helps clients align who they are with what they do so their career fuels the life they want to live, not the other way around.
