About
My name is Yamina Berchiche
I created LCJ because I've been in your shoes.
For over two decades, I navigated the world of science from every angle—starting with my Masters., a Ph.D. in biochemistry, and two postdocs. My career wasn't a single path; it spanned across biotech, non-profit, and commercial organizations. Later, as the founder of a consulting business and Dr. GPCR —a non profit with global network of over 1,300 scientists— I gained an unparalleled view into what companies and collaborators truly value.
Throughout this journey, I saw a consistent problem: brilliant scientists struggled to navigate career transitions and build lasting connections. Not from a lack of skill, but from a lack of a clear, actionable system to connect their professional ambition to a truly happy life.
I realized that a fulfilling career doesn't just happen. It's built on a foundation of self-awareness and a strategic plan. My own breakthrough came when I stopped searching for a job and started a project: defining who I am, what I am good at, and how I want to work. This systematic approach is what unlocked my ability to build lasting connections and attract the right opportunities, on my own terms.
LCJ is the result of that journey. There is a lot of fragmented advice out there; this is the blueprint that organizes the puzzle.
My mission is to help you move beyond wishing for a career and give you the tools to build a prolific life, step by step.
