““Kerri is someone you want on “your team” to help you navigate through whatever challenges you’re facing.””
“I entered my coaching relationship very naively. I had very little awareness of what it would be like and I wasn't entirely sure what I wanted to get out of it. Both of these feelings made me somewhat self-conscious. Kerri's coaching style immediately set me at ease and she worked diligently to help me set clear, actionable goals for myself-- goals I didn't even know I had in me! I was able to immediately put those goals into action in real-life professional settings I was experiencing and that was incredibly rewarding for me.”
“I started coaching sessions with Kerri as I had been feeling dissatisfied, and that I could be more present and active in various aspects of my personal and work life. Kerri's coaching strikes a great balance of listening with authentic empathy, with guiding towards action. Through her support and insights (she always knows the right question to ask, at the right time), I've not only formed a better vision of what I want and the changes I want to make, but I've worked up the courage to voice that out loud to myself and others and take concrete steps to making my vision a reality. I'm grateful to have Kerri in my life—there's more work to do, but I feel confident and empowered that I can tackle what's ahead, especially with Kerri's support.”
“Kerri is an amazing listener and she's been able to surface valuable insights into the roots of some of my development areas. I can now identify these behaviors more readily which enables me to course correct in the moment. In a short time, I feel like Kerri's made a significant difference in how I approach managing my team and also how I navigate change and factors outside of my control.”
“Kerri is the archetypal coach. She is a phenomenal active listener, kind and empathetic, yet she isn't afraid to push you in directions that will make you think about things in a new light. Most importantly, Kerri approaches the coaching relationship as a true partnership where you can safely share your candid thoughts and feelings about whatever it is you feel like working on. Simply put, I always feel better after meeting with Kerri. She has the gift.”
“Before working with Kerri my biggest issue was perspective in taking on my new opportunity. I was being asked to move into work I wasn't an expert in and I was suffering from some imposter syndrome. Kerri was instrumental in reframing these concerns and shifting my perspective so I could see the value of my instincts and how to effectively address the gaps that existed beyond that instinct. Kerri asks the questions to make you "look up", that help you see the bigger picture and dive more deeply into the solution and often, the professional growth that comes as a result. For me, this reliably breaks down whatever professional walls I have built that are preventing me from being honest with myself about what may be holding me back. It's hard to quantify the value of someone who can push you beyond those limits, and keep pushing.'“
“At the time I started coaching with Kerri, I was feeling unsupported by my manager and unsure what was expected of me. I felt helpless and did not see a clear path forward. My coaching sessions with Kerri were extremely helpful. She created a safe and judgment free zone, where I was able to be honest and vulnerable about the challenges I was facing. She was supportive and empathetic, but also pushed me to take control of my situation and challenged me to new ways of thinking. I've had several "a-ha" moments during my sessions because she helped me take the time to reflect and unpack my thoughts. She also taught me tactics to control my own ways of thinking / defaults, so I can get out of my own habits. I always walked into my coaching sessions feeling hopeless, and walked out of my sessions with a new found energy and confidence to take control of my situation.”
