That’s what she said…

 

Sammie Says…

“Katie approaches every conversation with humility and humor​​.​ She creates opportunity for you to hold yourself accountable and see real change. It is easy to dive into what you would think is uncomfortable territory with her and really dig to reveal your truths. ​I have enjoyed my sessions with Katie as they’ve helped me visualize where I want to be and help carve the path to make that a reality. I’ve been able to unlock insights about myself and truly understand myself in a way I didn’t think was possible.”

"This past year, in the midst of being a high achieving student and a director of a nonprofit, I began to feel increasingly anxious, depressed, and burnt out. With an acceptance and scholarships in hand, I was seriously doubting whether I was cut out for medical school. Within my first week working with Katie, I saw hope on the horizon and began re-recognizing my strengths. Throughout our work together, in addition to her fine-tuned leadership support, I began to truly rework the way I think. First, we identified my pesky saboteurs, like my ‘judge’, ‘hyper achiever’, and ‘people pleaser.’ Next, Katie gave me the tools I needed to recognize those thoughts are untrue and unhelpful and replace them with thoughts that help me to feel unconditionally content. Personal trainer for your brain is truly a great way to describe a life coach! Not only does she help you build strength, but she also helps you to fine tune your mental “posture” with the plethora of exercises she uses to engage with her clients. I would highly recommend this training to anyone looking to take control of their life and their mood. While counseling has helped me acknowledge and grieve the past, coaching has empowered me to confidently choose and act on what I want for my future. In fact, as a doctor, I’m going to advocate that insurance companies reimburse for coaching the same way they do for counseling. After all, it has helped me to “flip the script” on my own self doubt and take charge of my habits. Katie is fun, sincere, thoughtful and forgiving. She shows up for her clients and is exactly what you need her to be at that moment. All I can say is that I wish I would’ve started coaching sooner."

“Katie is fantastic! She’s thoughtful, uplifting and genuine. Through careful listening and insightful questions, Katie knows when to push and when to provide space. She helped me identify and celebrate strengths and victories I once overlooked. Katie encouraged me to speak from my heart (a true challenge!) and less from my head. Her supportive, unified approach as I worked to break through limiting beliefs and barriers has truly been invaluable. I’m beginning to trust in unprecedented ways and I feel a greater sense of connection with myself and through my relationships and interactions with others. The work we do is meaningful and deep, yet shared with humor and compassion. Through her own courage, honesty, and shared humanity, Katie is engaging and easily connects with others. She is a wonderful go to for anyone interested in personal or professional growth and transformation. As an added bonus, she’s also funny! :)”

“Today was my first coaching session, and I am blown away by the smart and thoughtful tactics used to help me deal with the tremendous stress in my life. We evaluated “what’s keeping me up at night,” and set goals together to create immediate and long-term inner peace. By the end of the session, Katie helped me uncover significant changes to the way that I communicate with others, both personally and professionally, while evolving authenticity, integrity, and self-confidence in personal and professional relationships.Katie has a knack for coaching, bringing out that inner Goddess that you can lose sight of (self-doubt), all while creating a trusting, empathetic and prosperous energy which is absolutely contagious. I was so impressed by how quickly we developed a trusting rapport and safe environment. 10/10 would recommend, whole-heartedly.”

“Katie has my vote! I really had no idea what to expect but I decided to give the coaching call a go and just see what happens. I have so many moving pieces to figure out this year and I had big plans coming into 2020, but have been discouraged and a bit overwhelmed. I was definitely not making any progress on the plans I had set for myself this year. In our short call, Katie managed to help me recognize a couple of significant things about what I really want, and helped me find renewed spirit and a little direction on my next couple of steps forward. I’ve never done coaching in this way before but in this little glimpse, I’m impressed and can definitely see the value. I’m looking forward to our next call! If you’re on the fence, I’d say give her a shot. You can always say thanks and be on your way if it’s not the right fit but there’s no chance of loss here. Enjoy and keeping making amazing things happen!”

“I SO enjoyed talking to Katie about my business goals. She listened to me intently and gave me excellent advice, feedback, and potential steps that I could take to get from point A to point B.

“Katie coached me when she owned a CrossFit gym. The first day I met with her we laughed together, we cried together. I felt so comfortable around her. Never once did she ever make me feel uncomfortable. She pushed me to make my goals happen, made me look at myself differently than what I saw myself as; she truly cared. She checked in with me every day. I loved that. I need that. Even though we’re miles apart, she is still a great friend to me.”

Leanne Wiseman, CEO & Founder at Leanne’s Salon

“Given our current circumstances, I feel it’s more important now than ever before to have someone like Katie in my corner. Katie knows what it takes to run a successful business. Her coaching is a comforting, open assessment of where I am, and what I need to do to improve moving forward. I enjoy that it isn’t a consultation about numbers and the bottom line of the business, but rather about the reason I got into business in the first place, what I'm doing to continue in that direction, and clarity around my short and long-term goals. Now that I’ve started working with Katie, I have someone who can provide guidance knowing where my business has been and what direction it needs to go moving forward. I look forward to our sessions together and believe building that relationship will pay dividends with both my personal and professional goals.

“Katie approaches every conversation with humility and humor​​.​ She will hold you accountable, while creating opportunity for you to hold yourself accountable and see real change. ​She has a way of pushing you to think about things in new ways and with new perspectives, and she isn’t afraid to crack a joke to ease the fears that transformation can bring forth. It is easy to dive into what you would think is uncomfortable territory with her and really dig to reveal your truths. ​I ​ have enjoyed my sessions with Katie as they’ve helped me visualize where I want to be and help carve the path to make that a reality.
