Hi there. I’m Kate. (she / her)

I'm a professional coach. I love working with people who are curious, constant learners, who know their own great potential, and who are excited to unleash it in their lives. And I love supporting people who can envision themselves doing bigger things but aren’t sure how to get there.

I coach because I want to support people to get more of what they want in their lives - fulfillment, ease, stretch-yourself-in-a-good-way challenges, unshakeable trust of their internal compass, or whatever is important to them. I work with people who feel the call to expand their personal leadership and explore the impact they can have in their work, communities, and lives.

My coaching work includes one-on-one coaching for people at all stages of life and career, coaching teams in businesses and organizations, leading workshops and strategy sessions, and supporting employees at the biggest philanthropic foundation in the country.

I've worked in nonprofits and businesses for 20+ years. I've launched businesses, volunteered on nonprofit boards, made 180-degree career turns, experienced being unexpectedly unemployed, and spent time as a stay-at-home parent before returning to work. I appreciate every twist and turn of my life and when I became a coach it felt like I was finally where I was meant to be.

I trained for 12-months with Accomplishment Coaching, have completed the 7-month-long Playing Big Facilitators Training with Tara Mohr, am an ICF Professional Certified Coach (PCC), am currently training to become a PAAC-certified ADHD coach, and continue to be coached by, and learn from, other coaches. I’m certified in EQi and EQ360 assessment tools.

After living in Seattle, Washington for over 20 years, I traded in my rain gear for snow boots, and moved to Western Wisconsin with my family. I’m committed to being anti-racist and working for equity and inclusivity.

I acknowledge that I benefited from living on the unceded land of Coastal Salish people, specifically the Duwamish people, when I lived in the city now known as Seattle, and I benefit from living on the unceded land of the Ojibwa, Dakota, and Ho-Chunk peoples in the area now known as Western Wisconsin. I contribute monthly to the Indian Land Tenure Foundation’s Beyond Land Acknowledgement Fund.
