About Us

Recently described by a client as "cordial, no BS", I have amassed 20,000+ coaching hours with a wealth of intelligent, successful leaders.

MY PROFESSIONAL BACKGROUND

Coaching psychology and adult education underpin my approach. I hold a Master of Applied Science in Evidence-Based Coaching Psychology from the University of Sydney, and Bachelor of Education, Adult Education.

Having launched in 2003, coaching has been my calling for over two decades. By 2007 I found my niche in leadership coaching. By 2009, my work included CEO Coaching and C-Suite Coaching, then incorporated Founder Coaching in 2016.

I am former Director of Professional Standards and President, International Coach Federation (ICF) Australasia where I led over 1300 coaches. I studied Coaching Supervision through Oxford Brookes University and am trained to develop other coaches. However, I work with leaders.

I am a humanistic educator with a desire to share what works. We will elicit what is unique about you, so you can lead with that effectively and sustainably. I will help you to know who you are, and be that on purpose.

THE CLIENTS I ENJOY

What impresses me most will be your honesty, introspection, and responsibility, including your willingness to do the reading and the work. If you are ready to see yourself more clearly, act on those insights, and sacrifice comfort for growth, we will be a powerful partnership.

Simply put, if you are sincere about becoming your best and committed to putting in the work, I will be your biggest champion and trusted confidant.

WHO I AM

Most clients call me Kate. I am an avid reader (literature, non-fiction and research) and traveler who was raised in Australia. Happily married, I lived in San Francisco and Palo Alto from 2013 – 2025 and am now based in Greenwich, CT. 

I particularly enjoy working with clients who have a faith of any kind as this deepens the work.

I value wisdom, timelessness, strength, freedom, joy, and love. I am inspired by psychology and human excellence, including mature leadership and acts of courage, the well-written, art, photography, architecture, and design.

I am drawn to the beautiful and the good, or, as it relates to you, quality and integrity.
