Why Personal Coaching? Why now?
OPPORTUNITY is one way to view our current situation, whatever it is. Are there aspects of your life you have been wishing to upgrade? Has a disruption in your routine created an opening for a new learning or a new practice in support of that upgrade?
For many of us, Covid provided a wake-up call to action. Lately I have been inspired by Mary Oliver’s question: “Tell me, what is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life?”
I’m inspired to connect, to listen, to reflect, to teach, to share …
What inspires YOU?
When you are ready to begin exploring your dreams and possibilities — free of unnecessary limitation — I’m here. My rates are affordable and your initial call is free.

“Kathryn has a caring, informative, and nonjudgemental approach that has helped me discover my true potential. I had been criticizing myself for years, filling my mind with self-doubt. Coaching with Kathryn was the antidote that helped me redirect my thoughts and change my life.”
Enneagram Typing
Coaching begins with identifying and understanding your enneatype. Maybe you already know it. If not, we’ll figure it out together. Perhaps this is enough.
If we decide to continue, we will explore areas of your life experience that are calling for your attention—self care, communication, relationship, sensuality, for example—through the wise and compassionate lens of the enneagram.
We can work together on a schedule or as needed. When indicated, I can refer you to a colleague with expertise in your area of interest.
Whatever it takes to enhance your life.
