Here's what impactful, inspiring, passionate leaders are saying about Krista, her coaching, and what they've accomplished through working with her.

It's not an exaggeration to say that working with Krista changed my life. I was frustrated and stuck at work, ready to turn down a promotion I didn't believe I was ready to assume. Krista helped me unpack the feelings and beliefs I had around my job and make space to examine them more objectively. Our sessions and the take-home exercises gave me a framework to process my career anxiety and identify action steps that helped me create movement where I had only had panic. Krista's objectivity and commitment to help me make the best decision for me were the most impactful part of my experience. I'm excited to start my new leadership role and feel prepared and confident for what's next.
Jill W.
Nonprofit President
My work with Krista has been one of the key factors in my being able to constantly grow and maintain endurance in my leadership. We have to be so careful about how we manage our energy and show up for those who rely on us. You can't take this too seriously and Krista is the perfect coaching partner for being able to do your best work for the long run.
Kerry T.
Mayor
I went from near burnout to focused and energetic. I am now able to show up for my team and myself in a way that I did not think was possible before Krista helped me get on the right path and practice the habits that help me stay there.
Amy D.
Assistant Dean
I worked with Krista in early 2021 as an executive coach. I wanted to think through some of the challenges that I was facing as a nonprofit leader, particularly as we were headed into another year of the pandemic. Krista is an excellent listener, asks thoughtful questions, and helped me get more clear on the challenges before me and strategies I could use to address them. I would highly recommend Krista as a coach.

Krista brings years of executive coaching excellence with her to each session. Through this process I have been able to unlock some of the hidden keys to success through thought provoking conversation and a well curated set of resources designed for my specific needs as a new executive. If you are just getting started, or have been in your position for years, Krista will help you to navigate new challenges while perfecting old ones in the journey to maximizing impact in your community. I cannot say enough good things about Krista!
Tom H.
Nonprofit Executive Director
I don’t think I could ever capture in a few paragraphs the impact of the work Krista and I have done together. I initially reached out to Krista due to stress and burn-out. I had listened to podcasts and read many books which helped a bit, but my real improvements came due to the personalized approach with Krista. I have so many more options for how I choose to react now. To put it simply - I have more agency over my life. I am so grateful for this work and its impact on my life.
Jane
Finance Business Partner
Krista's coaching sessions led me to identify my values and passions and then align my career and life goals with these principles. Krista is an extraordinary listener and critical thinker and is able to break down the most overwhelming ideas into small, manageable concepts. By encouraging, questioning, and supporting, she helped me work through the noise and pressures of everyday life to identify practical steps for new habits and growth. I would strongly recommend Krista for any individual who is looking to find some clarity and direction in life, whether related to work, family, or other issues.

Krista’s ability to ask the right questions, anticipate needs, and create systems in which other people can thrive makes her a uniquely capable partner for any leader.
Mark A.
Senior Vice President of International Operations (Retired)
As a coach, Krista is insightful, creative, patient, and kind. Chemistry is important in a coaching relationship, and I found Krista to have just the right touch for what I was seeking. I appreciated the way she grasped the essence of discussions, asked probing questions to further the inquiry, and offered frameworks for deeper reflection. I also appreciated her attention, responsiveness, and follow-up. She's a gem.
Maura F.
Senior Vice President, Programs
I had such an amazing time working with Krista. Not only did she help me realize what it was I loved about my job, research positions that I would be interested in, and think through what sort of skills I need to reach that point, but she also helped me work through some incredibly difficult and tumultuous periods at work.
Alice D.
Director of Operations
Krista's approach to professional coaching allows her clients to find their way and own it through her iterative clarifying process and engagement which truly still resonates with me. I am a better professional and person due to Krista's coaching. I still leverage the learnings after 4+ years since being a client. This is because they are pragmatic and easy to follow.
Snorwlor B.
Senior Director, Office of Strategy Management
Krista helped me to determine what mattered most to me for work, and also what matters most in my life at this point. Ultimately, I found a great role that hit so many of the things Krista helped me to discover that are important to me at this point in my life. I would recommend working with Krista if you are looking to advance in your field and unsure of when and how to take the next step, you are looking for a career change, or you just want to tune in a bit more to what you hold important, your skillset and how those two align.
Jenna G.
