Hello my name is katharine!

I am an organizational psychologist and consultant, a dual-certified Co-Active coach, a wife, mother, and entrepreneur.

I have tackled audacious goals, I have pushed through overwhelm, and I have known how it feels to want more time, money, recognition, opportunity….

More confidence. More influence. More support.

I WAS A CHRONICALLY AMBITIOUS PROFESSIONAL

I spent the first decade of my career working for groundbreaking, female executives and designing large-scale change initiative inside multinational corporations.

By the time I turned 32, I had two Ivy league degrees and a network of clients in New York, London, Madrid, Basel, San Francisco, and Portland…and a baby on the way!

It wasn’t until my daughter turned three that I realized I was chronically overwhelmed - personally and professionally - and I was also petrified of slowing down.

If I was ever going to live up to my highest potential, I needed support.

I FOUND SUPPORT AND TOOK A LEAP

Between 2015 and 2020, I hand-picked several advisors, coaches, and therapists to help me reimagine my career and redesign my relationship with work.

With their support, I discarded some of my most dysfunctional beliefs about what it means to do “good” work and be a “good” leader. I learned how to intercept my toxic work habits and develop more collaborative leadership practices. I built confidence to take new risks and I launched my own private practice.

But more importantly, I learned how good it feels to redesign your relationship with work and make a bigger impact.

YOU DESERVE TO FEEL BETTER (FASTER)

Though it took me five years to make work work better for me, that will not be your story!

I can help you navigate the peaks and valleys of your career and accelerate the positive changes you have been craving - for yourself, your team, or your organization

Because life is too short and the sooner you learn to support yourself, the sooner you will be able to support others in the most extraordinary ways!
