About Kathryn

I am deeply committed to my own personal growth and the evolution of human consciousness.  I believe that personal growth is no longer a luxury, but a necessity for your continued success in these times of vast change.  

My perspective is that a fulfilling life is contingent upon being clear on your personal vision and values, developing goals that have "juice" for you, and taking steps every day toward what you want.  This is the basis of aligned and committed action...and this is where you find your power.  I strongly believe that without clarity and alignment, your action is futile.

As Your Coach, What Do I Offer You?  

As your professional and personal life coach, you will

  • Clarify your vision and values;

  • Develop goals that have "juice" for you;

  • Create doable action steps;

  • Keep focused on what you really want to accomplish;

  • Deepen your learning and increase your use of your natural strengths and talents; 

  • Receive non-judgmental, consistent, and compassionate support to keep you inspired and accountable in moving forward; and

  • Make REAL what you want in life.

I also want you to know that I love coaching!  I especially love the "Ahas!" that my clients (and myself) experience during our coaching sessions.  I define "Ahas!" as quantum leaps of understanding that can happen in an instant.  They are truly awesome.  

What Makes Me Different From Other Coaches?

As your professional and personal coach, I have diverse career experience and education as highlighted in the following table.
