“Before Kristen’s coaching, I thought I knew my strengths. At first, I was confused by the terms and their specific meanings, (i.e. Context.) I felt a sense of disappointment - that maybe I don't have the strengths to be CEO of our organization. After talking with Kristen, it was much easier to understand my particular strengths and see how that affects those I deal with - both as an individual and how they would look in the workplace setting. You wouldn't believe how nice work was the day after our first session. I realized I had been trying to do things that were counter productive for me. Acknowledging my strengths gave me a kind of freedom and peace. Life is stressful enough at times - without trying to be something you're not. Now I'm just being who I am and playing the strengths I do have.”
