Leadership Coaching for Emerging Leaders Through Executives
For leaders growing themselves and their impact
One-on-One Leadership Coaching
Leadership can feel isolating, especially when expectations rise faster than support and others are looking to you for direction.
You care about doing good work. You care about your people. And you want to lead well, not just get through the week.
This work is for leaders who are ready to grow, not only in what they do, but in how they lead.
I partner with leaders, from emerging managers to seasoned executives, who want to lead with greater clarity, confidence, and impact while staying grounded in what matters most.
Through structured one-on-one coaching, we create space to think strategically, navigate real leadership challenges, and strengthen how you lead in your day-to-day work.
My approach is practical, strengths-based, and grounded in the realities of leading people and organizations. It is designed to support real decisions, real conversations, and real team dynamics.
Kristie helped us step into our power and innate knowledge by giving us tools to get in touch with our authentic selves.

Coaching Packages
As a strengths-based coach, I help leaders build from what already works, expanding capacity rather than focusing on deficits. Each engagement blends reflection, practical application, and measurable progress over time.
Coaching is offered in structured packages, since lasting leadership growth happens through reflection, practice, and support over time.
Most engagements begin with 6 to 12 sessions, with space for continued partnership as growth unfolds.
Reduced-rate options are available for nonprofit leaders, and package savings are available for prepaid multi-session engagements. We can discuss the best fit during your discovery call.
Coaching FAQs
How long does coaching typically last?
Most coaching engagements begin with a package of 6 to 12 sessions.
This allows enough time to build momentum, apply new approaches, and see meaningful progress. Some clients continue beyond that for ongoing support as their roles and goals evolve.
What happens in a coaching session?
Each session focuses on your current priorities, challenges, and goals.
We may explore decisions you’re navigating, team dynamics, communication approaches, or longer-term direction. The goal is always to translate insight into practical action you can apply right away.
Is coaching confidential?
Yes. Coaching conversations are confidential.
If your organization is sponsoring coaching, we may align on high-level goals, but the content of individual sessions remains private to support honest reflection and growth.
How is this different from mentoring or consulting?
Coaching is not about giving you answers or telling you what to do.
Instead, I help you think more clearly, build on your strengths, and develop approaches that work in your specific context. This leads to solutions that are relevant, feel authentic, and create lasting change.
Do you offer coaching for nonprofit leaders?
Yes. Reduced-rate options are available for nonprofit leaders.
We can discuss what makes sense based on your role and organization during a discovery call.
Can my organization sponsor coaching?
Yes. Many clients are sponsored by their organization.
Coaching can support leadership development, role transitions, and team effectiveness. We can align on goals and structure in a way that supports both you and your organization.
How do I know if coaching is the right fit?
A discovery call is the best place to start.
We’ll talk through your goals, current challenges, and what you’re hoping to gain from coaching. I’ll answer questions about coaching, my approach, and anything else you’re curious about. From there, we can determine whether this approach feels like a good fit for you.
