I have known my whole life that my passion was to help people, but I did not take a traditional route to get here. It was a long winding roller coaster ride before I began to walk in my truth. I spent more than 20 years serving as an assistant in the corporate world, supporting others to achieve corporate goals. In 2019 I made the transition to begin helping individuals reach their goals as well. Developing steps to success coupled with support and accountability increases your chances of reaching any goal. And that is what I am here to do. My name is Kristin Strickland and I am a life coach.
It's never too late to pursue that dream or change directions. I specialize in overcoming obstacles and leveling the playing field so you can start the race on even ground through one-on-one coaching and empowerment groups. If you need support getting started or accountability as you move toward your goal then I am here to help.
