Powering people in growth mode.

Clarity. Action. Performance. Alignment.

High impact leaders do their own work behind the scenes.

Building businesses is not for the faint of heart.

The end results of successful leadership are external. They can be tracked in spreadsheets and dashboards - quarter by quarter and year over year.

Reaching your highest potential as a leader to deliver those results, however, is an internal job.

That work is anchored in self-awareness, alignment of purpose and values, self-command in times of stress, and the confidence to take bold action in the face of set-backs.

Are you ready to take your next step?

Hi, I’m Kelly.

I chose to become a professional coach because the experience of being coached was transformational for me - both in my performance as a business owner, and in creating a deeper sense of well-being and presence in my personal life.

After spending 15 dynamic years in the business of building and scaling businesses, I began to see a clear link between the organizations that would meet ambitious goals versus those that would experience erratic and fleeting spurts of success.

Those that soared had something uniquely powerful in common : the resiliency and capacity of their leaders and teams.

I am passionate about unlocking human potential and supporting transformational change for the talented leaders I work with.

Working Together

Interested in partnering together? There are a few ways that I work with clients. If you don’t find what you are seeking here, please reach out to explore customizing an option to meet your needs.

  • Do you have a specific goal or challenge you are ready to tackle? We’ll utilize a foundational curriculum to establish the roadmap to the change you desire, supported by personalized bi-weekly coaching sessions.

    Topics I specialize in include preparing leaders to excel in a new or elevated role, threading the needle between career success and personal satisfaction, and navigating significant transition or change with ease.

  • One of the most fulfilling and challenging roles as leaders rise is managing people - which includes creating a framework, goals, and clear direction among individuals who may or may not have the tools to excel as a team.

    I can help by designing and facilitating targeted sessions for teams to develop awareness, capacity and specific tools to overcome the common hurdles that hinder teams from performing at their peak potential.

  • What if you had the power to navigate challenges with ease and flow instead of stress, anxiety and frustration?

    You already do.
    Let's unlock it.

    Join me and a cohort of 4 other high-achieving women leaders in an 8-week guided program to improve your performance and personal well-being.

    We’ll utilize the Positive Intelligence®️ framework, developed from emerging research in cognitive psychology, performance science, and hundreds of hours of work with top CEOs and elite athletes.

    Just as you build your physical fitness for endurance in the mountains, you can build mental fitness for resilience in your daily work and life.

    With the accountability of a supportive learning community and a dedicated professional coach, you will build a toolkit to respond to challenges and setbacks aligned to your own core talents and authentic power as a leader.

The Client Experience

  • Kelly is perceptive of what a client needs in the moment, and very flexible as topics and conversations unfold. She is not someone who "tells", but rather someone who "shows" by guiding her clients to discover their own truth. She doesn't profess to have all the answers, and instead reassures clients that they have the answers within themselves already, it's just a matter of uncovering them beneath all of the layers of social pressure, emotion, perception, and stressors we put on ourselves. Kelly introduces tools and exercises for clients that enables them to get at that truth, and the process is extremely rewarding!

    Mandy L , Chief Marketing Officer

  • Kelly is a kind, thoughtful and sharp person to work with and really helped me to connect on a deeper level with what I most want. I looked forward to every session with her, and it helped me understand what was blocking my way forward.

    Amber M , Senior Program Officer

  • I wholeheartedly recommend Kelly to anyone yearning for a more fulfilling life or those seeking an inspired change in direction. I experienced both, and Kelly guided me to uncover what was holding me back and what I truly needed more of in my life. To my surprise, I discovered I didn't need to work harder or learn more, but that I needed more play and whimsy in my days, a revelation that has had a profound impact on me, my family and my business. Investing in myself through Kelly's coaching was a decision I'm so pleased I made, and I plan on working with her again in the future.

    Lily N , Business Owner & Entrepreneur

  • I came into the Positive Intelligence Learning Circle with a fair bit of skepticism; I continued because of the strong science based approach and Kelly’s smart and thoughtful leadership. I have already felt and experienced the transformative power of this program in my professional life and in my personal relationships. I would highly recommend this program to the high-acheiving professionals out there who tend to be hard on themselves and others - it’s worth it.
