Before working with Kaela, I felt lost, aimless, and completely stuck in a rut with no foreseeable way out. To say Kaela lit my way forward would be a total understatement. It’s almost as if Kaela found a flashlight in the darkness, handed it to me, and gave me the pride and dignity of being able to turn on the light for myself again, all guided by her phenomenal coaching and facilitation.
She has coached me through my deepest limiting beliefs, fears of failure, trepidation around pivoting, loneliness, confidence, clarity, and so much more. Now, I am stepping into the next iteration of my career with far more confidence and assurance than I thought was possible before meeting Kaela. Her down-to-earth nature, incredible question asking skills, and genuine desire to help make Kaela a coach I’d recommend to all of my friends and family

I worked with Kaela for 4-5 weeks only and experienced great results! Kaela provided accountability for me to continue both strategizing bigger picture career moves and small daily/weekly practical steps.
Most of all, Kaela is the queen of synchronizing information! I was most impressed with her ability to reflect to me my own inner discoveries and help me condense them into practical solutions. I found a great job during my time and felt complete in my work with Kaela!

Real lasting change is hard, really hard, especially when we go it alone. Kaela makes the difficult process of personal change enjoyable, all while challenging and cheering you on at the same time. Success in this process really comes down to being open to the guidance provided by the coach and being able to trust that they have your best interest at heart. Kaela makes this easy, immediately, and is always genuine even those just getting to know her feel like long-time friends.

I absolutely recommend working with Kaela! Her approach is organic, welcoming, supportive, and most importantly - effective. She’s a natural helper, a doer, and her coaching has been imperative in my recent success and improved mental health.
With Kaela’s help, I’ve implemented a new daily routine that better supports my school needs. I also recently landed a higher-paying job that coincides with my busy school schedule. I feel like a sense of balance has been restored in my life. Kaela provided me with sound, non- judgmental support and a positive, fresh perspective to tackle the unfamiliar chapters of graduate school.

Kaela is such an incredible coach! She helped me focus on my strengths and get so many things done. There were times when I missed a deadline we had set together and rather than making me feel bad for missing it, she highlighted how hard I had been working despite missing the deadline, and helped me adjust my schedule to find success the next time. This approach is crucial for someone like me who is already so hard on myself (as many of us are)!
Kaela has helped me to find more compassion for myself and feel more able to accomplish my own goals. I’d recommend Kaela to anyone, any day.

Kaela asks really good questions that cut to the core of issues without making me feel judged. It can be tough to talk about certain problems unprompted, but Kaela makes it easy to get comfortable without opening up.
Getting coaching has been extremely beneficial to me in terms of finding direction, and I would highly recommend Kaela to anyone considering coaching.

Having someone check in with me, and hold me accountable, has brought so much structure and space for more joy in my life. I’m still a work in progress but feel way less overwhelmed and feel very supported. My goals do not seem far away, and they actually feel achievable for the first time in my life.
I would absolutely recommend Kaela as a Coach. She helps bring structure and focus to your specific needs and goals. She is kind, supportive, and really helps break down the barriers and get to the root of what you want and need.

Kaela is a great coach! Kaela brings a fresh and innovative approach to coaching. She has a great way to engage you so that you automatically see new choices and possibilities that you can take action on. Kaela is perceptive, respectful and comes from a place of genuine caring. After each session, I felt a renewed energy and passion for my work and concrete actions to begin working on.
I have worked with coaches from around the world and would certainly want to work with Kaela again given the value I received from our time together.

I’m so thankful I’ve gotten the opportunity to work with Kaela! She is so compassionate and easy to talk to, no matter what subject I bring up. Kaela has definitely helped me turn my mindset around and encouraged me to go after what I want - which I am now!
I would highly suggest Kaela for any transitional period you might be going through.

Kaela’s ability to listen, capture my thoughts and mirror them back helped me to really hear myself and what was in my way. I’ll never forget when she came up with the metaphor of “judgment junk food” in our coaching session. For the first time, I realized what I was doing to myself with my negative self-talk.
With Kaela’s coaching, I was finally able to gain the deeper understanding I needed and move into action to change habits that were holding me back.
— Kim-Elisha P | San Francisco, CA

My coaching sessions with Kaela were clarifying, grounding, and fun. She helped me figure out what I really wanted, made me feel heard, and I came out of the sessions with a strong direction and action steps for getting there. Kaela combines a light-hearted nature with clear direction and questions that get to the heart of the matter. As a traveling musician and young person trying to build an intentional life I could not recommend Kaela any more highly.

Kaela is a truly intuitive coach!
She takes the time to fully understand her clients, to hear what the client is wrestling with — beyond just surface words — and to help bring to light what is most important. Kaela has a warm and inviting style of coaching that encourages the client open up and to look closely at what they are most interested in changing.
I would recommend Kaela as a coach to anyone wanting to expand their view or to achieve something important to them.
