Clarity, Confidence, and Connection for Leaders at a Crossroads.
When communication breaks down or pressure rises, I help you steady yourself, repair what matters, and lead with clarity and confidence.
What I Believe About Leadership
Leadership is not a title.
It’s the relationship you have with yourself and the people who depend on you.
When you understand your patterns, everything changes:
-
communication becomes clearer
-
decisions become easier
-
boundaries become healthier
-
your presence becomes steadier
-
your relationships deepen
-
work becomes more aligned
This work is not about fixing you.
It’s about helping you operate from a place that feels honest, confident, and whole.

A Coach Who Sees the Leader and the Human
Most leaders reach a point where success no longer feels like enough. You’re capable. You’re accomplished. You’ve carried responsibilities most people never see.
And yet, you can feel something calling for more clarity, more alignment, and more honesty.
That’s the space where I do my deepest work.
My coaching blends psychology, executive experience, and the kind of lived wisdom you can’t get from a textbook. I bring calm to chaos, clarity to complexity, and insight to the patterns shaping your leadership, and help you shift them for good.
But to understand the work I do today, it helps to understand the life that shaped me.
Hi, I’m Katie.
As an executive coach based in Seattle, I support C-suite leaders, founders, and business partners who want to lead with more clarity, steadiness, and intention.
I understand the quiet weight you carry when connection falters at the top. Drawing on 18 years of corporate leadership experience, along with training in mental health counseling, neurobiology, and executive coaching, I help senior leaders and business partners move beyond recurring cycles of miscommunication, pressure, and conflict.
My approach combines radical honesty with genuine empathy, creating a confidential space where you can untangle complex dynamics and rediscover confidence in your role and relationships. I’m honored to have helped leaders create lasting change by seeing the patterns beneath the surface and building a clearer path forward—for both their businesses and their lives.
Every executive deserves to thrive, yet so many are struggling. When you work with me, you’ll gain a trusted guide who sees the person behind the professional and equips you to rebuild trust, improve communication, and lead with renewed clarity.
Your next chapter begins with real support and a vision for lasting growth.
I’m excited to meet you!
A Life Fully Lived, A Journey Shared
If you’re here, you’re probably someone who’s craving a deeper, more meaningful next chapter. The good news? You’re in the right place, and you’re in good company.
My work is shaped by an eclectic, wholehearted life: one that’s taken me from a log cabin in northwest Ontario to corporate boardrooms, from vision quests in the wilderness to pottery wheels in my home studio. Every chapter has taught me something essential, and every lesson becomes part of the partnership I build with my clients. Here’s a glimpse into the world that informs the work we’ll do together:
1
I’m a mother of two grown-and-flown kids who continue to teach me about letting go, loving big, and trusting life’s unfolding.
2
I grew up in a log cabin in Northwest Ontario, think woodstoves, winters that bite, and a childhood steeped in simplicity and wonder.
3
I was the #1 Sales Rep in data networking for years during my corporate life, proof that intuition and drive can absolutely coexist.
4
I once met the Dalai Lama, and his presence taught me the profound power of compassion and generosity in leadership and in life.
5
I completed a Vision Quest, where I learned to hear the sound of my own inner voice — a skill I now help others rediscover.
6
I’m a devoted dog mom to Kora, who keeps me grounded, playful, and always ready for a good walk.
7
I love making pottery in my home studio; clay has a way of bringing us back to the present moment.
8
I started a meditation company during COVID, which led to designing a curriculum for a local school district to support educators through impossibly hard times.
9
I lived in Málaga for 3.5 months, attending language school by day and coaching clients by night — an adventure that enriched all of us.
10
I’m continuing to deepen my work as a speaker, bringing ideas about identity, courage, and grounded leadership to rooms beyond one-to-one coaching.
