What Clients Are Saying

 

“Moving into the C-Suite, I was genuinely worried about finding the hours to do it all, without shirking the equally important role of dad and husband. I was also hell-bent on making time for coaching.

Being a stickler about protecting that hour once a month with Katie has made all the difference. As a coach Katie is genuinely interested in my success and highly observant, she's also not afraid to be a thought partner or play devil's advocate. I've grown in so many ways thanks to coaching, but perhaps most importantly I've come to the proud realization that I don't have all the answers on my own, and I shouldn't. It's not about being the master anymore....consequently I've built an incredible team and relationships to ensure success up, down and across the business.”

— CFO, Healthcare Company

“Having learned the hard way that the executive suite can be a lonely and trying place, I value the dynamic I have with Katie. Our ongoing coaching work is a way for me to stay focused and clear-headed, maximize my development, and just let down my guard to reflect, strategize, and even complain. She's my secret weapon, and I'm confident enough in my abilities to acknowledge that Katie has helped facilitate much of my success and growth as a business leader in these last nine months.”

— COO, Energy Company

“My work with Katie has produced many illuminating reflections. I leave our sessions feeling more energized and able to keep myself accountable to my own aspirations. It’s a rewarding experience and worthwhile investment to be coached by someone who genuinely cares for the success of her clients!”

“As someone who’s professionally motivated and goal-oriented, my coaching work with Katie filled a gap that countless mentors and sponsors never could: she’s simultaneously my objective third party and cheerleader. Thanks to our ongoing work, I’ve made important decisions (ones I used to view as too overwhelming) that have shaped my career in a direction that truly inspires me and aligns to my vision.”

Founder and CEO, Tech Start-Up

“The exact hype woman I needed....so grateful for Katie whose expertise, insight and endless support helped me land my dream role! If you ever need clarity on professional goals, Katie gives you the tools, confidence and courage to forge a path."
