Thank you for exploring In Wild Bloom!

My name is Kristen (she/her) and just like you, I am a perfectly imperfect human journeying through this life in the best way that I know how - one deep breath at a time.

Here are some words to get to know me…

Deep Thinker. Creator. Educator. Coach. Encourager. Writer. Advocate. Belly Laugher. Explorer. Searcher. Daughter. Sister. Aunt. Partner. Dog Mama. Friend. Adventurer. Nature Lover. Student of Life. Hiker. Yoga Enthusiast. Dancer. Shower Singer. Divorcee. Queer…Warrior of Unraveling and Overcoming.

Throughout my life I have fought through layers of self-doubt, low self-esteem, and failed perfectionism. I have ventured deep within my thoughts, many times lost in overthinking. I have started and stopped, started and stopped, not always allowing myself the gift of seeing things through. But I have forged ahead time and time again in search of meaning and fulfillment.

Through much personal development and many many deep breaths, I have realized that these experiences and road blocks have been some of my greatest teachers. It is in the questioning, soul searching, and persevering where we learn and grow. It is where we reunite with ourselves and decide which way is forward.

Keep staying the course…you are worth it.

My coaching aspirations

One of my greatest passions in life is connecting deeply with others, helping them to see the good within themselves, and supporting them to achieve their wildest dreams. I approach coaching with an open heart and an open mind. I am here to create a safe space to promote healing and growth and to encourage you to love and honor yourself along your journey.

I have dedicated much of my professional life to working in direct care in the social service and educational fields to do just this. Throughout all of the connections I have made, I have found the most joy in seeing the light in others and watching them flourish as they realize it for themselves.

I believe we’re meant to keep figuring it out as long as we live. Life is continuously winding and it’s in these shifts and twists where we begin to understand more about who we are. I have realized that walking together through life helps us move forward with a deeper sense of strength and belonging.

I look forward to walking along your path with you, supporting you in any way that I can.
