As a certified Master Life Coach, Kirstin works with women who are committed to making a difference in this world, who have worked hard to craft lives of meaningful purpose, but who wonder, deep-down, if "this is it." Kirstin's clients include artists, writers, professors, teachers, deans, physicians, midwives, nurses, theologians, analysts, therapists, poets and creative entrepreneurs; people who
've often learned to measure success by self-sacrifice, and who necessarily encounter the challenges of reconciling a creative life with the calling to serve or benefit others. Kirstin's clients come to her often feeling trapped by the very life of meaningful purpose they've worked so hard to achieve. Skilled at both self-analysis and self-denial, Kirstin’s clients often feel torn between their commitment to a life they take pride in and a gnawing sense that there’s something more they’re meant to experience and express. As your coach, Kirstin will teach you how to access and engage your most potent source of transformation: authentic desire. The opposite of attachment or craving, desire is the feeling of inspired aliveness that catalyzes your creativity, your capacity for loving connection with others, your resilience and problem-solving faculties, and that deep-belly sense of rightness and belonging that we often refer to as “purpose.”
When we claim and name our desires, fear inevitably rises as our brains are hard-wired to keep us safe (comfortable, risk-averse). Kirstin teaches you key self-coaching tools that enable you to identify your fears for what they are, exhume the limiting beliefs that anchor those fears, and rewrite the stories that give those beliefs credence. Finally, Kirstin will teach you how to set goals and take action from a state of self-love and abundance instead of from a state of lack and wanting to "fix" or compensate for who you are now. This is critical for learning how to set goals that we actually follow through on. In the process, you will learn to access your dreams and stay dialed into your own authentic compass, for dreaming and reaching are no longer sources of defeat and pain. When we are living in alignment with our authentic desire, know how to embrace rather than flee from our fears, and take action from a place of self-love, a creative life of purpose and meaningful service are not at odds. For those of us devoted to making a difference in the world, working towards this integration in our own lives is key.
