She is so supportive, thoughtful, insightful and is able to connect with me. I so appreciate her and how she asks the right questions to help me release emotions that I didn't know I was pushing down, and questions to help me think a different way. So very fortunate to be working with her.

So thankful for Kate! For one to one support! For new perspectives and tools. ❤️❤️❤️

I so appreciate Kate - how she listens, gently offers guidance, suggests tools, checks in asking if a certain direction seems useful, and helps create a plan moving forward.

I signed up for the group program because I was struggling to find a way that I could 'do it all' and still be me. I was about to have my second baby and wanted to be prepared. There are so many things I gained from the program! I loved how in depth it was, how the practical tips were backed by psychology research and not just 'woo woo'. My relationship and communication with my husband has really improved and my mum guilt us much more under control.

I signed up for the program because I felt like I was spiraling. My mind was always racing, I couldn’t sleep, I was resenting my partner and not really enjoying being a mom. When I saw this course, I wanted in! I wanted to find my joy in motherhood. I wanted to shine! Kate was the only person who made me feel validated. I knew she was exactly the right person I could trust.

Great listening and allowing me the space to process and explore self/situation with patience, timely suggestions, feedback, and supportive statements. I appreciated the connection to my ongoing thread/theme throughout our sessions.

I have been to one of Kate's groups and it was excellent. I was quiet and shy but Kate was able to speak to me directly and make me feel included. Kate made me feel comfortable to speak up and feel heard. It was also so nice to hear other parents having similar experiences, I felt less alone. Thank you for taking the time to support those of us in the parenthood journey.

I signed up for Mama Shine (past group coaching program) because I knew I needed additional support... I was being hard on myself if I lost my patience or if I took time for myself. I thought I was the only one experiencing these things, so I decided to find help.  I found the program very useful. I no longer have mom guilt if I mess up, and I no longer label myself as a “bad mom” if I make a mistake like raising my voice. I have learned to give myself grace, not only as a mother but as a human being who deserves self love. I also take care of myself more. If I need to step away, I do so without guilt, and knowing it’s the best thing for everyone. Thank you so much Kate for this invaluable opportunity. You’ve been an inspiration in so many ways.

I signed up for the group program because I was feeling overwhelmed and just in a generally more unhappy place than my "usual" self... My motivation was low and I felt like I needed more resources/tools and support than simply following you and other "mom mental and physical health" experts on IG. After doing the group program, I have noticed some tangible changes in how I think and feel about certain situations that occur constantly (messy house, toddler acts a certain way, etc). I feel I have more tools now to change my reactions or my own feelings or thoughts toward these events that I did not have before.

Becoming a mom was a big transition for me and I found that I was struggling to find my identity through it all...The group helped me to see things more clearly even with overwhelm.  I feel so much ease in my life now, and I think being able to identify emotions and name them outloud was one of the biggest takeaways for me. Now when I'm feeling something, I can name it and it brings a sense of ease rather than trying to change or repress that feeling. I learned to trust my feelings and that they are real and valid and worthy of being honored and explored. Truthfully, naming the emotions has made them less controlling and the negative feelings last for a much shorter time, which is amazing.
