“Between stimulus and response there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and our freedom.” — Viktor Frankl
Show up Fully to your Imperfect & Beautiful Life
You’re ready to quiet the noise of perfectionism, comparison, and fear so you can show up fully to your imperfect and beautiful life or business.
You want to live a life of purpose, health, and joy that honors your inherent wiring, life’s seasonal shifts, and your need for breathing room – time and space to do meaningful work but also to rest and enjoy the simple gifts of this ordinary day.
You need to understand WHO you are – your personality, priorities, primary strengths and places of struggle, WHAT you truly want, and your overarching WHY for this season of life. Why matters. And then you need to know HOW to move step by step into consistent, purposeful, imperfect action.
Allow me to come alongside to help you unearth your unique Voice & Vision and create a new cognitive and emotional roadmap for moving forward gently and on purpose – a HOPE map.
Choose a package that focuses on either your personal season of life or your small business life — BOTH involve soul stretching and messy, get-your-hands-dirty kind of work.
NOTE: I work with men and women

Rooted & Resilient 90 Minute Session
Resilience is the ability to successfully adapt or rebound without a pathological outcome
following adversity or potentially traumatic life events or circumstances. As Sheryl Sandberg
writes in Option B, “resilience is not a fixed personality trait. It’s a lifelong project.” We can
consciously work to build resilience pro-actively, but resilience is also forged in the fire.
This 90 minute call will help you learn and apply evidence-based strategies that will help you remain focused, calm, and anchored in times of turbulence or transition. 2 weeks of email support as you apply the strategies we’ve discussed is included.
This special service also provides you with the Rooted & Resilient module from my Brave & Beautiful Membership. The module includes the PDF that walks you through 4 weeks of exercises or new habits and ideas to help you build resilience, related worksheet(s), 2 recorded calls and an interview which speak to the topic and offer additional guidance and encouragement so that you can live Rooted & Resilient through the ups and downs of life.

Deepen Your Roots of Self Compassion 90 Minute Session
Self-compassion leads to less self-judgment and lower depressive symptoms. It increases resilience and a sense of capacity. It has a direct and immediate positive effect on our psychophysiological experience of stress and leads to improved health behaviors and overall physical health.

Voice & Vision Consult Bundles
The journey of “becoming” more fully ourselves and handcrafting a joyful and purposeful life that honors the full truth of who we are can be messy. Life is complex and there are no magic pills – but we can take responsibility for what we can control and dive in fully to the life in front of us. I will come alongside to guide, question, encourage, hold space, and sometimes challenge you as you do the work to unearth and walk out your Voice & Vision for this season of life.
PERSONAL Voice & Vision Support
As we work together, depending on your goals you will:
- Deepen your roots of self-awareness & self-compassion
- Learn to shift your thoughts and build a healthy stress & growth mindset
- Develop strategies to move through life calmer and more mindful of what season you’re in (literally and metaphorically)
- Embrace imperfection so you can do the work or build a life you’re excited to show up to each day
- Practice caring for yourself well, mind-body-spirit, for optimized health
- Integrate individualized nutrition & lifestyle shifts where appropriate
- Identify your “WHY” for this season of life and a road map for building the life you say you want
- Handcraft a weekly rhythm and “ideal day” that aligns with your core values & Life Vision

How It Works
When you purchase a Voice & Vision Bundle you will answer a series of pre-consult questions in email or Google docs to help me get to know you and your goals (and you’ll complete an Enneagram assessment where applicable). We will meet for 60-minute consults via Zoom at the end of which you’ll walk away with up to 5 action steps – practices or habits to help you apply what you’re learning to your life. In these sessions we will take a holistic perspective, addressing mind, body, emotions, and lifestyle to help you handcraft a sustainable, joyful, and purposeful life or business.

Behind the Scenes Support for Business Clients
You need extra behind-the-scenes (hands-on) business support, which might include: content or blog post writing, editing/cleaning up existing posts, project management, social media management, pulling together a starter bundle of brand-aligned images to use on your website or Facebook posts or helping you craft your email opt-in gift. $50/hour or you can buy a package.
I’ve helped business owners grow their new FB pages organically to over 600 people in just a couple weeks, to 1k in a month or 5k and beyond over several months. Results vary, of course. I help people get their websites launched, craft compelling and SEO ready blog posts, and learn strategy and skills that have taken me years to develop.
I save my business clients from three months to three years of work using the skills I’ve gleaned by getting my own hands dirty, questioning, staying curious, and taking imperfect action to build a sustainable life and business. I don’t consider myself an expert – just someone actually doing the work and walking my talk.
My spots for this service are limited. This package includes up to 2.5 hours/week behind the scenes support for 13 weeks to launch or grow YOUR business.

Testimonials
If I had to choose one word to describe Krista it would be generous. She generously shares her vulnerability and of her own process and how she mines for beauty in life under all the messiness. She is generous with her time, with the materials she has worked so hard to create, and with all the bits of wisdom large and small, she has gleaned along the way. I really enjoyed our sessions but so much of what I got from Krista was from the shorter messages we would exchange between sessions. I got a sense that Krista was really on my team, believing in me and the work that I do in the world. I walked away feeling like Krista was a colleague, mentor, and friend. I have no doubt I will engage Krista in her professional services again and highly recommend her to anyone looking to clarify and get their voice and vision into the world.
-Ketriellah Goldfeder (business support)
I met Krista online several years ago through our shared interest and work in holistic health. After watching the development of her work in business coaching and training, I was inspired to invest in connecting with her for the past three months. That was a wise decision! She has helped me ‘flesh-out’ what I want to be and do in my work by listening, coaching, encouraging. Krista has given me steps and strategies for following through on action steps she had for me each time we met. Guiding me as I launched my new website was just one of my tangible benefits of working with her. Thank you, Krista, for your example and honesty of also being in progress, which energizes me in my journey to continue doing the work to own my desires and become the woman I was created to be.
–Karen Toews (business support)
My sessions with Krista were the gentle push I needed to begin implementing some necessary changes in my life. While I initially contacted her for nutritional and dietary assistance, the inner work she helped me with was what resulted in the biggest improvement in my overall health and well-being. Her approach is compassionate and open, and her encouragement to start small in each area has already snowballed into much larger shifts in my behaviour and habits after just a couple of months. I highly recommend Krista’s coaching sessions for anyone looking to get more clarity in their life and to gain some practical tools for living with more joy and purpose.
–Robyn (business & personal support)
Krista is the real deal and the whole package: right from the start she uncovered areas where I wasn’t clear about my work and helped me to discover my own voice and vision, to take action and stay committed to doing the work that is my passion, even when I was immobilized by fear. She can help you with the lofty work of goal setting and showing up through fear right down to the nitty gritty of setting up your daily schedule, and hashing out the details of your website. She’s good at this because she has done it all/been there herself, she is truly a self-made master. Through her expert guidance I experienced unusually rapid growth of my FB page, she helped me get a website built that I LOVE – it reflects my personality, my energy and my mission. And most of all Krista has been unfailingly generous in her support, shown me how to show up to my work joyfully, and to just start, however imperfectly. I wouldn’t be where I am today without her and I can’t thank her enough.
–Shona Lauzon (business support)
Krista helps you walk your own unique path — according to your own wiring (I’m highly sensitive, introvert), gifts, season of life, and limitations. I’m 63 but still want to learn and grow and live my vision of what I want in my life and how I want to feel. But I am not high energy and I get stressed easily. I need lots of rest and sleep and alone time. And I don’t want to feel hurried and stressed.
Krista is not a rah-rah coach on steroids who makes you achieve your goals and pushes you to action. I had been looking for a coach, specifically an artist coach, but they all seemed to focus on how much money you want to make and what you need to get there. I’m not motivated by money and after reading Krista’s insightful essays, I knew she was right for me.
She will tell you the truth though, and gently encourage you with humor, wisdom, intuition and practical tools.
One of my biggest takeaways is learning to, as she says, “take imperfect action.” I have a strong perfectionist part of me and I want everything all figured out before I make a move. This has been truly liberating.
She also taught me that life doesn’t have to look a certain way to be joyful. I can “show up afraid,” take the long view, and go slow and steady. One of the gifts is seeing that I already have much of what gives me joy in my life.
She validated my belief that you can live intentionally and create the life you want, not according to what others do or what society rewards. A life that’s maybe off the beaten path, but joyful and purposeful. -Patti Drake (business & personal support)
