Behind every confident founder is someone they can be honest with.
Coaching for founders leading through uncertainty.
The right solution emerges when we understand the full picture.
Running a company means making calls no one else can make and rarely having someone to make them with. As the business grows, the leadership it needs from you changes too, often faster than you have time to catch up. Somewhere in there, it's easy to start performing confidence instead of feeling it.
1-on-1 coaching and business advisory services gives you a space to drop the performance. We'll get honest about what's actually working, what's not, and what kind of leader you need to become for where the business is headed next.
What clients are saying:
Katie asked me a lot of questions that forced me to challenge my assumptions and actually shift my thinking.
“
“This work led me to begin making meaningful changes in my behavior—from navigating difficult conversations with team members to establishing stronger work-life boundaries and intentionally prioritizing what matters most in my daily and weekly planning.”
— Natalie, Leadership Coaching Client
Katie helped me find my voice again, quieting the noise of expectations outside of me and reconnecting to who I am. I felt more confident, clear, and supported after every session.
“Our time helped me solidify what I really wanted, and reminded me of how much value I brought just by being myself. What originally felt like a mountain I needed to climb, through our conversations, turned into one small step along the journey of my life.”
— Noor, Quality Engineer

Meet Katie
I've spent my career close to the founder's seat: leading Sales and Partnerships at Google, advising early-stage startups on vision and pitch, and running nonprofit strategy where every resource and decision counts. I know what it's like to lead without a manual.
My style is direct, curious, and grounded in real-world experience: Co-Active trained, ICF-ACC certified, and NOLS-trained in wilderness leadership. I ask the questions that get past the story you've told yourself and into what's actually true, then help you build a plan that fits how you work.
Each engagement starts with an honest look at where you are and where you want to go. From there, we settle into a steady cadence of 1-on-1 sessions built around what's on your plate that month: real talk, sharp questions, and frameworks you can use immediately, not homework that sits in a folder.
Let's get clear on what's next, together.
