Testimonials

  • Stephanie Toftdahl Mica, WA

    Coach Kristi has helped me heal in so many ways, and I am so grateful for all that I have learned. In just a year of working with her I have learned that it’s important to set boundaries, and how to set boundaries. She has taught me that I am worth it, I can do hard things, I am not what people tell me I am, I have healed from past traumas and I am not a victim! 

    Most importantly, she has helped me find myself, my true self and has helped me to engage with God more and really feel His hand in my life ; even though all the hard things I still go through. 

    Also, when I talk to her about people I love who have/are hurting me(intentionally or not), she always helps me to feel seen and heard but never speaks ill of who I am talking about. She shares a view of what they might be experiencing as well as what I’m going through. My marriage and family life is slowly, but surely, getting better. I can share my emotions without feeling guilty about them.  There is so much more I can tell about Kristi but that might be a 500 page book! Overall, she is very personable and really wants you to get well and thrive in life. And to be seen and your true self. She is a true angel, and I am so thankful she is in my life.

    “Who knew that you could pay attention to your thoughts, choose what you choose to think, and take charge of your life?" Not me, despite having spent decades in therapy.  Working with Kristi has been amazing, and life-changing.  I feel empowered, and I’m so much kinder to myself than I used to be.  I see myself getting closer and closer to living my life the way that I want to live it.  I’m aware now of what I’m thinking and have even learned to reject thoughts that don’t serve me.  Her approach is supportive and gentle and inspiring.  Kristi is great at what she does, and I'm a better, more authentic person for having worked with her.” 


  • Jeani Andros Vienna, VA

    Coach Kristi supported me to change my self-concept to be a person who eats mindfully and I am so grateful for that. I found new, easier ways to prepare my leafy greens, and other high calcium foods for my medical needs, simply because I was focusing on self-care. I looked forward to her live one-hour coaching sessions, and enjoyed trying her "dares" for each week. Kristi's coaching is helping me reprogram my thinking so that I feel better, take bolder action steps and enjoy better results. Try her program--it works!! 

  • Lisa Braas Spokane Valley, WA

    I invited Coach Kristi into my life when I was feeling a need for change. What a positive impact it made!

    She helped me to recognize thoughts I was rehearsing that impeded my weight loss goals and the personal growth I was seeking. Unlocking these thoughts brought growth and an increase of joy!

    Coach Kristi uses her creative talents and insights to help explore and accept the divine within us. She is approachable and empathetic to personal suffering. Her methods are hopeful and strength building while allowing us to accept ourselves as we presently are now.

    I value my work with Coach Kristi and highly recommend her as your life coach.

    I loved working with Coach Kristi! She really helped me to love myself better.  I didn’t realize how much my negative self talk was affecting me, until she helped me to see myself in a better light.  I love her idea of art journaling and how enthusiastic she is to teach and share her wisdom with a flare of color!!  She truly helped change my heart!

    Kristi has been the perfect guide as I’ve found my footing in  new, different and difficult situations. She helps me see different ways to interpret my experiences and move forward. She always has a beautiful smile and energy.

  • April Hall Spokane Valley, WA

    Working with Kristi has been such a wonderful and impactful opportunity for me.  I am learning to think and act in increasingly positive and constructive ways, and have learned simple, and effective tactics to better handle stress and get safely through pain, which I occasionally experience. She has helped me begin to develop a sense of empowerment over my life, that is new to me, and is profoundly changing my life for the better.

    Coach Kristi’s self-care program was fabulous, and I loved it. She is super fun and a great teacher. The information was super relevant, and I have a whole notebook filled with amazing self-care worksheets that I can refer to. She did a great job with the lessons. She taught me how to quiet my mind and I would highly recommend this program to anyone considering it.

  • Vicki Pearson (Mom) Fairfield, WA

    The concepts of self-care that I learned from Coach Kristi's program were very powerful and thought provoking. She has done a wonderful job of creating informative and colorful worksheets for each lesson that can be downloaded and printed off and referred to over and over again, as we seek to change old habits and learn new ways. It was also fun and helpful to interact and share with the rest of the class in our weekly live coaching calls. I would recommend this course in self-care to anyone.

    I worked with Kristi on self-care, as I was at a point in my healing journey where I needed some specific tools and coaching. I also needed to be heard and seen in a way that was different from what I was receiving with my therapist. Coach Kristi and her program delivered! Kristi took the time to hear me. She saw me in my pain and struggle and coached me to see my own strength. My experience with her 1:1 coaching was a game changer. She came to know my heartaches and then helped me plan a navigation strategy with a sense of hope and purpose that aligned with my values. The coaching session in collaboration with the group meetings brought perspective, healing, and growth. I love that Coach Kristi practices what she teaches. She is professional, but approachable with a fun flair for art and creativity. She brings a healthy dose of humanity, kindness, and love to each session, along with celebration for each person’s ‘win’ for the week. The weekly meetings are a great place to connect, share if you feel like it, and receive a meaningful lesson.

    Coach Kristi has put together a refreshing program of self-care that is realistic, compassionate, and educational. Being able to work her program has helped me to love myself. Loving myself has expedited my healing and improved all my relationships. I love Coach Kristi and the work she does. I am incredibly blessed and thankful to have participated in her program.

    I joined Coach Kristi's Self-Care program with a little apprehension as I was thinking that it was primarily focused on the physical aspects of self-care; however, once the program began, I realized that the value of the program was well beyond that. This program goes deep into the root issues surrounding our level of self-care for our whole entire being, not only our body, but for our mind and emotions as well. I was surprised by the depth of knowledge that Kristi has on all aspects of self care, including the latest science-based support in the areas of health and wellness, along with the compassionate emotional healing for lasting transformation in her clients' lives.
