Private Coaching
with Kirsten
READY TO MAKE WHAT YOU WANT MATTER?
Make confident decisions.
Based on what you want.
With ease.
If you’ve landed on a Decision Coaching website, you’re likely a growth-minded smartypants overachiever with super high standards. (Said with love, no judgment. Plus you know I’m right.)
You value efficiency. You love being productive. You succeed often (though you tend to focus on how you could've done better).
But you're ready for the next chapter to look different.
Get ready...
YOU’RE READY TO STOP…
Feeling perpetually "behind" and "not enough"
Not knowing what to prioritize (or when, or how)
Focusing on what other people will think about your choices
Wasting so much time and energy on every decision — big and small
YOU’RE READY TO START…
Deciding what you authentically want and make choices accordingly
Feeling confident you're making the "right" decisions and commit to them fully
Freeing up headspace so you can be fully present in your work and off time
AND YOU’RE IN THE RIGHT PLACE!
This is coaching for people who want to make a guarantee to themselves: “I will DO something about my frustrations and my goals instead of waiting to prioritize myself someday (maybe).”
It will help you feel intentional and clear in your decisions, move the needle on what matters, and get professional guidance and accountability to make it easy.
from our clients...
"This has completely rewired how I approach my life! I went from feeling like I had a million open tabs in my brain to some quality of order that works for me. I know it's grounded in science, but Kirsten makes it feel like magic. Slack was my home base. Every time I felt like I had a few too many open tabs, I looked at Slack and Kirsten jumps out of the app with incredible timely and very on point replies. . .it’s like having her in your pocket!"
—Serena F.
When you can hear yourself clearly, you can take fast, aligned action.
How it Works
This is how you move from your current norms and challenges to being joyfully, efficiently and unapologetically self-directed:
GET CLEAR ON WHAT YOU WANT
This coaching is centered around you making powerful, authentic, self-honoring decisions. At the start of your program, I'll help you:
Clarify the goals you want to dedicate resources to right now (and why)
Clean up anything that feels like "competing priorities"
Organize the unknowns and identify next steps towards answering the big questions
You won't hold back here. You'll get in touch with what you truly want: how you want to feel everyday, what you want to do and not do, and who you'll have to become to create that reality.
MINDFUL HABIT CHANGE
You're here because you don't want to do things "the way you've always done them." As you take one action at a time towards what you want, we'll proactively change old, ingrained patterns as they come up, such as: overthinking, over-pressuring yourself, ALL the self-judgment, people-pleasing, perfectioning, stress spiraling, second-guessing every choice, and putting yourself off for later.
BALANCE PRESENCE AND PROGRESS
You want to get where you're going and achieve all the things. YAY. But you also want to enjoy more of the journey. Coaching will help you have more of the day-to-day experience that you want, instead of "waiting until TBD undefined later date" to feel confident or content. You'll develop skills of presence, self-celebration, and savoring positive moments.
And you'll get good at using science-based tools like self-compassion, stress regulation and boundaries to balance being present and making meaningful progress.
It doesn’t stop there
from our clients...
“Before coaching, I was this unaligned but high-functioning human. I was operating from a place of ‘You've got to do’ and a task list and a routine. And I was operating out of fear, most days. I'm able to make decisions now because I trust myself more.
Now that I've eliminated a lot of the unnecessary negative noise, I can hear myself clearly and loudly. It's easy to make decisions because the next best thing is just more obvious. It feels lighter. Like not having to have a ‘conference call’ with all my feelings at the same time.”
—Ariell I.
Hi, i’m Kirsten
Before becoming a Decision Coach, I used my Yale Master's Degree to fuel a 10-plus year career in Theater Stage Management.
Making good, fast decisions was my day job — but it wasn't my forte in everyday life. As I got further down that career path, I got more uncertain about my choices. They were never as easy or straightforward as I knew they could be — and I got tired of not feeling in charge or self-directed enough, despite continued success!
So I switched gears and decided to make everyday decision-making my new Zone of Genius, for myself and for the oh-so-many high-achieving clients who had similar struggles. I specialize in helping people organize their thoughts, hear themselves clearly and take action on what they really want. If you want to feel great about your choices, I'm here to tell you: You deserve to, and it's totally possible.
IF YOU DON’T LOVE HOW LIFE LOOKS RIGHT NOW…
Don't wait until you're 60 to "finally change things." You deserve this now. And it won't be as hard as spending the next decade or two settling for less!
Client Spotlight: Andy G.
The decision-making process has been simplified! Andy felt like he struggled with decisions his whole life: "There were so many different shiny objects and ideas that I'm interested in...I knew that was clogging the system. That I was making it harder on myself."
But within weeks of joining the DMP, he created an LLC, chose a logo, made a website and established a voiceover career! Coaching helped him prioritize himself and get out of "not knowing what to do or what to say yes/no to" and "focus on what matters rather than wasting energy on the in-between angst feeling."

When you hire me, you're hiring a Life Coach with an expertise in Conscious Decision-Making.

Typically, I work with clients 1-on-1 for at least 3 months, meeting on a weekly basis and connecting on Slack between sessions as needed.
This program structure allows for time to experiment with new beliefs and behavior, turn them into lasting habits, and see immediate results in your real life (also leaving room for challenges and surprises to happen along the way — because Life).

Yup. If you're here, it means you're aware of things you want, and you're ready to act on them. You know some habits you don't want to keep for the rest of your life...you know some goals you want to be accountable to...you know how you do and don't want to feel! And you know the fastest, easiest, most effective way to get there — whilst you continue living your very busy everyday life — is to invest in expert guidance. You know you're smart, self-aware and capable of change, and you want help in crafting that change in an organic yet intentional way. You are exactly the type of person who can have a Life Coach (and love having a Life Coach).

The most powerful decision you can make right now is to book a consult. We'll spend up to an hour having a no-strings conversation to clarify exactly what you want, and find out if working together is the best way to get you there. You'll leave with a clear vision of who you want to be 3-6 months from now, what habits you want to commit to changing, and the next step you're going to take to make all of that a reality (whether that's hiring me or not). Click here to find a time that works for you!

Getting a feel for each other is required for both of us to confirm that it is indeed a good fit to work together!

Client Spotlight: Kirsten
“If we over-index on what other people are thinking, we don't end up making the best decision, because we're making a decision out of fear and worry—I don't do that anymore. I make the best decisions because I'm not worried about what every single other person in my life is going to think about the decision. That has been so freeing. I’m much more calm as a person. I feel much more confident. Collected. I feel like decisions don't take up 90% of my brain anymore. Kirsten's coaching was so organized and so well structured, and there was always learning along with it. I think as a kind of Type A personality, I always appreciated that. So as a recovering overthinker, when it comes to decision-making, I am so, so pleased with what's happened in the last three months. I feel like it's three years of professional development condensed down into three months of just this glowing, beautiful gift that I received.”
