“It's a night and day experience. Kristen has given me so many tools, processes, and most importantly confidence with my prospective clients. Each session leaves me with deep insight on how to improve and grow my business. Kristen is an invaluable resource. She is the reason why I am advancing as quickly as I am.”

  • “I was very excited to work with Kristen because I believed in her and her value proposition of getting female entrepreneurs to 7 figures. As a first time business owner and entrepreneur I knew I had gaps in my process but didn't have the tools or skills to identify them and close them. I didn't have the operations or sales expertise which I knew Kristen would be able to help me with.

    The results I’ve seen: it's a night and day experience. Kristen has given me so many tools, processes, and most importantly confidence to set up my operation in a way that not only brings in sales but builds trust and confidence with my prospective clients. She has taught me how to strategically think differently about my ICA (a term I was not familiar with before) to incorporating huge value add tools to my process. Her ability to both educate on high-level big ticket items, as well as the detailed processes is extraordinary and when I am with her my experience is that she has done this type of work for decades.

    I love her ability to dive deep as well as stay on the high-level strategic goals. Each session leaves me with deep insight on how to improve and grow my business.

    100% recommend. Kristen is an invaluable resource. She is the reason why I am advancing as quickly as I am.”

“A lot happened during the year of working with Kristen — we grew revenue, signed some dream clients, hired, changed our team structure, clarified gaps in our operations, rebranded, and got clear on where we're going. Kristen was there as a sounding board. Kristen is a life-saver! We've already referred her to others.”

  • “We started working with Kristen when our business was 3 years old. We reached out to her after surviving and growing our business during the pandemic. We were strapped for time, wearing a ton of hats, and not setting aside time to talk about the big picture as co-founders. We weren't sure if this was the right time to enlist a business coach. As co-founders, both Jessica and I wanted to align on our goals, company strategy, solidify a clear picture of our ideal customer, and refine our strategy for sales and scaling. During our sessions with Kristen, we left with a clear picture of our vision and tapped into the larger impact we want our female-founded business to make. We stepped into more CEO energy and are thinking and dreaming bigger. We gained more confidence in our ability to scale.

“After setting up Kristen's systems and insights, we have a functioning and successful sales CRM, we can pull our sales lever up easily when we are moving through growth periods, and we hit our goal of number of clients we were looking to sign last year! We couldn't recommend Kristen enough. She is intentional, goal-oriented, and has an expertise that yields success.”

  • “When we brought Kristen in to consult, our main objective was identifying our sales pipeline and management on the backend. We were attracting quality clients but had no way to manage, organize, and optimize our sales process to predict our conversion for growth! Kristen came in and immediately identified our ideal client avatar, how they were making contact with our business, and how to track their progress within our sales journey. We left understanding our conversation rate, where our clients were coming from, and how to amp up our sales efforts when we were looking to grow our roster base! It was the organization, insight, and expertise we needed.

“I'm set up for this next year with a lot less stress and a lot more confidence. Kristen was able to look at the big picture of my business goals and challenges and then helped me create a detailed plan to take steps towards my goals and address my challenges. I feel organized and on-track for the first time in months!”

  • “I came to Kristen hoping to get some guidance on pivoting my coaching business. I had gone through exercises (from other websites and resources) to create my business plan, mission and "ideal customer", and I had what I thought was a strong foundation, but was lacking confidence and feeling stressed about actually doing it. Enter Kristen. She encouraged me to dig deeper and dream bigger with my vision, clarify my business plan, and really understand my customer even more. Through her sessions, we created an even stronger foundation and a detailed action plan to implement my pivot. The sessions with Kristen are thorough and I felt completely seen and understood by her! She created summaries of what we talked about, outlined action steps, and held me accountable. Kristen is warm and approachable and asked the right questions to really figure out how I needed help with my business. I'm set up for this next year with a lot less stress and a lot more confidence. I highly recommend working with Kristen. She was able to look at the big picture of my business goals and challenges and then helped me create a detailed plan to take steps towards my goals and address my challenges. I feel organized and on-track for the first time in months! Thank you so much!”

“Before working with Kristen, my highest priced package was under $1,000 and during our sessions, I created a package that was over $12,000. Within a month of changing my pricing, I sold that $12,000 package!”

  • “Before deciding to work with Kristen as my business strategist/coach, I hesitated, ‘Will she know how to talk to me in the way that I respond?’ After our first call, I no longer had those concerns. I came to her because I was looking to address my business foundation — create goals, my mission, clarify who I am going to serve. What she gave me addressed that spot on. I also wanted to work on my packages and pricing. Before working with Kristen, I knew that my colleagues and peers said that I needed to charge more, but I didn't know how. Together with Kristen, we worked on my packages and pricing. She didn't pressure me to charge more or not, but she helped me align my pricing and offering with the vision of where I wanted my business to go. Before working with Kristen, my highest priced package was under $1,000 and during our sessions, I created a package that was over $12,000. Within a month of changing my pricing, I sold that $12,000 package!

    In addition to increased revenue results, overall, I feel more secure. That's something that I don't know I would have achieved as fast without Kristen. I feel super, super confident with my packages. What's most important to me, is that she provides a safe space for me and it makes me feel like — yes, I am secure in my business, and yes I know my packages, but I’m also able to express what's really going on — the things that I don't share with a lot of people. Because she provides that openness, I felt comfortable to share with her. That way of communicating helps me when I am working with my clients to provide that to them as well.

    Specifically, I love the deck that she created for my business. It was interactive. I saw where we started — it changed and evolved. Throughout the process, she included me in the changes to the deck and sent it to me so I had something tangible. Lastly, I loved the business action map. She reflected my own words back to me and gave me a tangible plan to refer to moving forward.”

“YES! I would recommend Kristen. She is a terrific listener, a cheerleader, a coach who leads with empathy in every conversation.”

  • “Initially, I hesitated about investing this time for myself. At the time of working with Kristen, I was struggling with resetting my career ambitions and finding a clear path forward that balanced my family and work priorities. She's been so helpful in helping me synthesize what's really important to me – my values and goals. She helps me see my business as a reflection of who I am, rather than a separate entity. I loved being able to tackle specific questions and roadblocks with her, and getting her opinion on which door to open. YES! I would recommend Kristen. She is a terrific listener, a cheerleader, a coach who leads with empathy in every conversation.”
