Working with Kate has made me a stronger leader. I am better able to identify and meet my team’s needs, support their growth, and build the team culture they need to be successful individually and as a group. Given that Kate’s coaching is rooted in anti-racism and equity, her support directly impacts the students, families, and communities we work in.

Kate is the leadership coach for the team I manage(d).

I was struck by her self-assurance and self-disclosure, anchored by a notable wealth of competence and experience.

Earlier this year we again connected as part of a team planning a Brené Brown event for Ellevate, a women’s networking group, and again she demonstrated command and vulnerability in corralling our diverse panel. (Unfortunately that event WAS postponed indefinitely by the pandemic!)

This fall I have had the pleasure of taking an online class that Kate was offering at the Hive, on White Fragility — not a book study, though the book provided a jumping off point. I have admired Kate’s ability to create a brave space to stimulate open sharing, discussion, and sometimes intense dissent. I had the sense of being on a boat — the waves could get rougher and the sky darker as our group dug deep and got raw, but she could nevertheless adjust the sails and somehow make the wind die down for us to drop anchor and settle down to process and reflect. The balance of safety and risk, the combination of head and heart, the encouragement to connect with our bodies — all of these are what Kate brings to her interactions, and I’m grateful for our acquaintance and hope we have many more opportunities to connect and collaborate in the future!

Kate has been a guide for me in erecting a website that reflected my multidimensional practice. She balanced me greatly, and opened my eyes to my capability towards technology, empowering me to take the reigns through building, in small tasks. This has been instrumental in me grounding my practice, and in feeling capable in life-in ways I didn’t even know were missing. Pragmatic guidance, with deep soul validation and growth!

What is Unique About the Way Kate Works?

Kate can listen like very few humans. She hears many things that are not said with words. She paces words, session, and tasks in an intuitively timed way-this is a rare level of communication and relationship brilliance that seems so natural for her. She’s accommodating, but clear, enthusiastic but not overzealous. She’s refined and comfortable in her own skin and methods, which puts her clients right at ease. And, she’s super lovable, loving and very enjoyable to be around. Her energy is a gift you don’t expect to receive!

What Would You Say To Someone Considering Working With Kate?

Do it. She’ll see you. She’ll know what you need instantly, and how to guide you to get it for yourself. And if she can’t help, she’ll be earnest about that, too. You’ll experience parts of yourself you couldn’t have on your own; you’ll get emotional and spiritual benefits that aren’t fully a part of the job description-but are embedded in the service. You’ll feel confident in your decision to use her as guide and aide. You’ll love the physical and non physical results!
