Do you believe you can have what you want?
I do.
Every day that belief proves true, as I work with my clients.
Secret wishes and half-spoken goals turn into clearer thinking, more energy, and—yes—
more focus,
more time,
more money.
Steven says, “With Katrina’s help, I’m back in a flow state—ruthlessly innovating, delegating, and automating across my two businesses. I’m closing new clients at the fastest rate in years.”
Are you like Steven?
Accomplished, driven, growth-oriented
…but what’s next?
What’s next comes from clarity.
Articulating what you truly want—for your business and your life. And building the systems that make it inevitable.
This from Crystal, Doctoral candidate and CEO, “Katrina has a gift for cutting through the noise and helping you see what truly matters—not just in your work, but in how you want to live and lead.”
Fen, visionary, author, and book midwife, proclaims, “Every day I wake up excited to get to work. Nothing is a drag anymore. I’m aligned with what I was born to do, and making progress every day toward bigger dreams than I imagined possible. Thank you, Katrina.”
How I Work
My work blends strategy, structure, and conversation.
The Best Part?
(Some say)
Daren, a coach/consultant, said this about Katrina’s coaching, “Katrina pulled me out of the weeds and equipped me with fool-proof systems and strategies to help me stay relentlessly focused. She’s had a profoundly positive impact on the business and my life.”
Never one to mince words, Brittnay, Executive coach, adds, “Best part: she’s so real. None of this over-the-top positive BS. She tells you when you’re sucking and helps you get to a better place.”
Work should be fun, Operations leader Erin says, “She’s seasoned and insightful across many industries, and incredibly easy (and fun) to work with.”

Ways to Work With me
Private Coaching
For founders, executives, and high-performers.
We meet every week for focused sessions on the gritty work of making change.
I’ll ask hard questions, reflect what you can’t yet see, and help you turn insight into action.
Todd, CEO of a window manufacturing company and client, states, “I have long struggled with certain aspects of running my company, and Katrina pushed me to tackle challenges that had been all too easy to brush under the rug for years on end. I truly would not have made the advancements I have without her support. Plus, she’s a joy to work with.”
Jacob, IT Consultant, appreciates Katrina’s perspective and focus. “Katrina is instrumental in helping me understand the different pieces of my complicated life puzzles and how to bring each piece in and out of focus based on the season I am in.
Then she helps me stay on track and focused.
Michaela, Consultant states, “Katrina was everything I needed, truly.
She didn’t just help me figure out my next move — she helped me tap back into purpose.
And when I have a sense of purpose, nothing can stop this train.”

Buttercup:
Occasional Missives From Me
Buttercup shares stories drawn from life and work — sometimes joyful, sometimes painful, always honest. At its heart, it’s a reminder to live with focus, intention, and meaning.
Is the timing ever really right?
Mostly no.
Sometimes yes.
“I want to start a family. But what about my new job?”
“I love him. But enough to move across the country?”
“I want to be a consultant, but the economy sucks.”
“I’ll get a divorce when the kids leave for college.”
These are versions of one of my favorite themes:
A million reasons why you can’t. If you haven’t read my book, pick it up (shameless plug
Buttercup, when you look back on your life, there’s rarely been a “right” time, right?
And yet —
Did you do it anyway?
Or did you wait to:
Start the business.
Get the divorce.
Have the babies.
Move across the country.
If you’re still waiting for ideal circumstances, you may be waiting a very long time…
Or not.
I just returned from a ten-day trip to Morocco with my nineteen-year-old twins and my eighty-five-year-old mom.
The timing was perfect. The kids were home for a long winter break. My father is settled and safe in his senior living community. My mom can travel with ease and peace of mind.
We found the ten days. We chose the destination together. And we had one hell of a three-generational adventure.
So yes — sometimes it all aligns.
And when it does, NOW really is ideal.
Buttercup, here’s a truth I keep coming back to:
Most of the time, timing and circumstances aren’t ideal.
And a plea to consider:
Doing it anyway.
Seizing the moment.
The time is now.
And when the elements/universe align?
Same message.
Go for it!
You just might have an experience you’ll remember for the rest of your life.
Would you like a permission slip to do that thing even though the timing isn’t right?
Here you go.
Use it. There’s more where that came from.
Love
K
