“The Glory of God is Man Fully Alive”
GK Cheston

With 40 years of nursing experience and advanced certifications in coaching, yoga, and trauma-informed leadership, I’ve dedicated my life to helping people transcend the patterns that hold them back.

Drawing on the John Maxwell Method of Coaching and a deep understanding of trauma-sensitive practices, I guide you to integrate past experiences and step into your fullest potential.

"Kathryn is a gifted and loving coach (and human being).

 Her intuitive sensitivity and kind presence have provided a safe and grounded space for me to heal, grow and open to new possibilities.

 I am so grateful to receive the gift of her wise and caring guidance on my healing journey."

The future is not something to look forward to.

 The future is being co-created now, in the present moment. 

About Kathryn

My journey began when I least expected it—switching majors from Home Economics to Nursing, discovering a vocation that spoke to my soul.

Over 40 years, I cared for dying veterans, witnessed the toll of PTSD, and explored new methods like trauma-sensitive yoga.

I found that true healing involves not just medical interventions but also holding space for the whole human experience—body, mind, and spirit.

After completing my Master’s in Nursing, I was introduced to the “Humanbecoming” theory, focusing on presence and phenomenology.

Later, I pursued training in trauma-sensitive yoga and meditation, especially within military communities. I also earned my certification with the John Maxwell Method of Coaching.

Over time, I realized my core calling: to help individuals discover how integrated trauma recovery can open the door to creativity, innovation, and transcendent wholeness.

My passion is to live life “fully alive” and guide others to do the same.
