Her extensive experience in business, leadership, and professional coaching was so evident from the start. She takes the time to get a deep understanding of the company's unique corporate values, leadership principles, corporate culture and very specific requirements of the role which she seamlessly integrated into our sessions. Her insights were invaluable, ensuring that my preparation was perfectly aligned with the company's expectations and standards.

“I received coaching from Kirsten at a time when I was in the process of a huge transition in my career. I was building my own business and was feeling a bit overwhelmed, stuck and unclear. She held space for me to figure out my way and gently nudged me towards realizing some of my goals. Her firm and also vibrant presence really helped me to actualize some of my biggest dreams and I'm so grateful for her guidance. If you are looking for a bright light to lead you back to your soul's desires, she is IT!”

“Kirsten is incredible at holding space for individuals. She actively listens, which is something I teach in the work that I do, so it’s awesome to be on the receiving end of this practice. Her ability to listen to her own intuition and know when to ask hard questions, when to reflect back what I’m saying, when to challenge me, when to offer new perspective, and when to sit in silence to let things process and sink in has been everything that I didn’t even know I needed. I believe working with her has truly opened my eyes, mind, and most of importantly, my heart. I’m so grateful for her and her guidance.”
