My mother had put me in touch with Kari after I was between jobs and was feeling lost. We worked together for a couple of months, and looking back, those sessions helped me stay grounded, giving my life structure and routine, and not lose myself navigating the difficult job market. Throughout our sessions, I became more in touch with my own values and strengths, which gave me the personal confidence I needed in myself. Our sessions ranged from help with career to more personal struggles and gave me an avenue to talk freely about personal struggles I was dealing with. She was immensely helpful with setting small weekly goals that weren't overwhelming in a warm and gentle way, and our conversations always left me motivated to push myself to be better. In my new job, I am bringing with me so many lessons from her and I am so much happier with the new relationships I've forged after our discussions. Kari, I am so grateful for you! -R.Z.

While Kari and I worked together over a year ago, I am still benefitting from her influence as it has shaped the way I choose to show up in business and professional settings. Her coaching has helped me tap into a more vulnerable, authentic style of communicating at work, and with a local moms group I am part of.  Specifically, she gave me the tools I needed to inspire deeper, less surface-level conversations with others which has been personally rewarding. Borrowing from the tools she uses in coaching, I have found new ways to find out what my friends and colleagues are motivated and inspired by, which has improved our connection in real ways. I am grateful for the skills Kari helped me to develop, working with her has turned out to be a better investment in myself than I could have imagined. -B.B.

I feel grateful that a friend put me in touch with Kari. I finally made the decision to leave my current job to find something else, and I wasn’t sure where I would land. I debated about switching careers entirely. Kari was a fantastic support system. She listened closely to what I was saying (and what I wasn’t saying) and helped me to visualize what my goals were and what I needed versus what my family needed. She reminded me about my strengths and what I have to offer in the job market. Kari offered me some different perspectives at a time when I needed help to see clearly amid the chaos of maintaining a job, taking care of my family, and looking for fulfillment in another job. - North Shore Mom

I connected with Kari when I was having a bit of a professional identity crisis, and I am truly grateful for the guidance she has provided. Kari has helped me stay true to myself and has taught me tips and tricks to help better balance my days so that not only can I achieve my professional goals, but I can do so without sacrificing my personal goals. Kari listens - I mean really listens - and has a way of acknowledging my journey that it’s always uplifting and leaves me stronger after each session.  As a result of working with Kari, I am more energized, more confident, and more optimistic. I highly recommend Kari and her coaching sessions to anyone who is even remotely considering coaching - but be warned, she might just change your life! - Lisa C.

Kari is a great source as a coach who is able to bring the best out of the people by asking impactful questions.  She brings so much warmth, thoughts and passion to her coaching sessions. She already sees potential in me even when I am doubting it. She is great at guiding me in navigating my potential and empowering me. Her coaching approach is gentle yet very effective. - Bhrikuti C.

Kari is a sanctuary where I felt completely comfortable speaking my truth. Prior, I wouldn't have anticipated feeling so at ease to share my thoughts. She knows the right types of questions to ask to get to the heart of what you're feeling. Kari has an arsenal of tools that helped me in many facets of my life, moving me forward with positivity and clear intentions. I am truly grateful for the time that Kari and I worked together and what I uncovered through her guidance. - Andrea M.

You know how people light up with a special kind of energy when they're doing something they love? Kari has clearly landed in the right place with her coaching business, because her energy shone through from our first intro conversation. She has a passion for helping women sort out what they want out of their lives and take the next steps to get themselves there. I felt more empowered to step into the next phase of my working life thanks to her coaching and guidance, and can highly recommend her to anyone wondering what's next for them personally, professionally or even emotionally. - Kate M.

One of the challenging parts of working with Kari is that at the end of each session, she asks what YOU want to be acknowledged for from the session. The first time she asked this I felt an unexpected pit in my stomach. It took me a few days to really connect that like a lot of women, I’m rarely asked to reflect on how I want to be acknowledged. I had to push past that and remember how powerful simply showing up, keeping my commitments, being vulnerable, and prioritizing my personal growth goals can be. Kari provides an affirming, positive approach to working through personal and professional challenges, and I think she’d be a good resource for all individuals emerging into a post-pandemic world exploring life choices or decisions who need a non-judgmental sounding board. - Working Mom

I had no idea what to expect with coaching and am SO glad I gave it a chance and worked with Kari. I came in with ideas of questions, not even fully formed yet, unsure where I wanted to go but clear I wanted to go somewhere. Her patience, professionalism, positivity and insight helped guide me towards goals and dreams that I feel incredibly excited about. As a licensed therapist, it was fascinating and enlightening to see the ways in which therapy and coaching differ and how coaching could be used to build on the growth I've made through my own personal therapy. I could also see coaching be a great fit for people with no therapy experience, as a way to begin an introspective journey that can help guide their life forward in the direction of their dreams. Essentially, coaching can be for everyone and I hope everyone who seeks out coaching has someone as wonderful as Kari. - Katie N

Working with Kari gave me the confidence to move into execution mode on a big life goal I had been debating for years. With Kari’s support, I found new ways to show up in conversations with my loved ones, advocate for my dreams, and move forward in my decision-making without second-guessing my intuition. I am grateful for Kari’s expertise and am recommending her to my network of friends and acquaintances. - Bethany B.

Kari was instrumental in guiding me through an important life and career transition. She helped me to define an actionable plan to pursue my goals and define the questions I needed to get clarity on. She is warm and easy to talk to and always an active listener. She asks thoughtful questions that uncovered new “aha” insights every session through conversations that moved easily across business and family matters. I appreciated that she kept us accountable to achieve the desired outcomes we established at the start of our sessions while being flexible to address changing needs and new opportunities as our sessions progressed. Time spent with Kari is a valuable gift to yourself! - Mom pursuing her dream
