GOKOTTA COACHING
There is a direct connection between who we are (within) and the level of success and satisfaction we experience and achieve.
In order to thrive at work or home (as a person, leader, entrepreneur, partner, parent or friend), we must first be in alignment with our true selves. Period. Only then are we able to shut out the noise and follow our instincts to create what others cannot envision and/or become all we are meant to be.
This is why transformational coaching -- a combination of executive and life coaching -- is an incredibly powerful approach. It taps us into our creative inner genius and wiser self to decipher tough decisions, create what's next, and/or find our way past what is holding us back. It is a powerful for anyone -- whether you are an executive or not -- who wants to get more out of their work and life.
Transformational coaching focuses on mind, passion and wellbeing first; strategy, effort and accountability next.
If you want to achieve any of these intentions...
Finding an objective sounding board to clarify thoughts, options and ideas around what's next or possible in your career, business or personal life
Getting out of a rut and move forward
Creating a powerful presence that builds trust in others, attracts opportunity and has you standing out for all the right reasons
Finding your voice and exuding grounded confidence
Preparing for important conversations and meetings
Making changes happening work in your favor
Showing up more authentically at work and home rather than faking it all the time
Improving how you make decisions and following your instincts more
Understanding what blindspots may be holding you back

Building your courage muscle to take on new challenges

Putting your best foot forward - even lean into fear - to come out on top
...then this type of coaching is for you.
No one reaches new levels of success (or grows on their own) so why should you? With the help of a seasoned growth partner dedicated to your success, together you can discern the unknown and intentionally create more of what you want.
STEP INTO YOUR POWER
Tap into your inner creative genius and wiser self to make important shifts in your life.
COACHING TESTIMONIALS
Letting go is hard for us founders, especially as we scale our companies. Yet, Christine helped me to see into blindspots I didn't consider so I was able to make more strategic decisions. Her strategy background in business with her natural ability to observe the unspoken often gave me much to think about ...for days after we spoke. A strategic investment having such a savvy sounding board on my side.
CEO (DC Metro Area)
Being an executive in a Fortune 50 company came with professional success, but I found myself asking "what's next"? I am grateful to have met Christine when I did. Working with her allowed me to explore options I may not have considered and gave me the confidence to move forward in a new direction. She has a kind, but direct approach that is refreshing. She knows her stuff because she's been there and it's reassuring to know I have a true partner in this journey.
Tracy, former Director Interactive Sales, Comcast (TX)
Christine is a very effective coach and was able to draw out new insights. As a result of [our] coaching partnership, I had the chance to rethink my approach to leadership challenges, as well as challenging work experiences. She has a calm demeanor, allowed space to reflect and asks powerful questions that stirred reflection. She is supportive and encouraging. I enjoyed working with her and will enjoy working with her again.
Jim, senior healthcare HR executive (PA)
Heard. Seen. Empowered. Connected. Liberated. Inspired and on fire. Ready to take on my world. Possibilities abound ... I could on and on and on about the benefits of coaching with Christine. She is truly some kind of wonderful!
Rebecca, actor + trauma expert (NYC)
I couldn't have done the last decade without Christine’s coaching support. Together, we’ve worked through challenging bosses, job changes, applications to prestigious programs, prepared for major talks and difficult conversations. Maybe people walk around the block when they need to reset, but I've got Christine on speed dial. Our conversations challenge me to think beyond my ego’s initial reactions. I'm always reconnected to my best self; and her knowledge of power and people dynamics in the professional world has been invaluable.
IBM leader (VA)
After 30 years at the same company, I have been impacted by the pandemic. Christine is an effective coach who asks insightful questions that helped me to think in new ways. She helped me on a personal level to identify my values and to align my goals with those values. She created space for me to draw on my own knowledge and intuition; to have courage to tap into my own potential and believe I am worthy just as I am. I am exploring my long forgotten creative and spiritual sides. Professionally, I have been able to gain closure on my old job/life and have become open and excited about the possibilities. Getting her perspective and guidance on the interview process and cover letter writing was also particularly beneficial.
Kim, senior oil industry executive (TX)
One of Christine's greatest gifts is that she reminds me of the courage I have within. As an entrepreneur who is constantly reinventing herself, seeing beyond the self-inflicted limitations is everything. Christine nudges me to look in a direction that I normally don't. Her style - a mix of compassion and edginess - always open up the possibilities for me. Part of this is because Christine brings a lot of life experiences to the table and she has a natural ability to listen deeply. If you're serious about honing your growing edge, look no further.
Margie, entrepreneur (NY)
What I appreciate most about Christine is her sincerity and follow through in helping me step into my career. She does a great job at connecting the right people in order to build professional relationships and expand the knowledge of young professionals. Her motivational words and insights have assisted me in my journey after graduation and my career in our nation’s capital. I cannot thank her enough for her guidance and validation.
Cathy, young professional, Sensis Agency (DC)
My coaching sessions with Christine have been a catalyst for real change in my life. Christine's coaching style is friendly and warm; working with her sometimes feels like talking a wise friend who has seen the world and experienced more than just one lifetime. At the same time, she has uncanny intuition and insight, often calling out what she sees to encourage a deeper look at old stories that are standing in the way of forward progress. Our sessions allow me to re-connect with my inner resources, enabling me to step into my work and my life with increased clarity and confidence. Her guidance and perception have also guided me toward greater focus and definition of my deepest intentions while supporting me fully as I move toward them. If you are ready for change and want to expand your perspective about what's possible in life, I wholeheartedly recommend Christine.
Max, solopreneur + Federal Government consultant (VA)
Time invested in being listened to is so helpful in building self-awareness and confidence. Working with Christine helped me let go of 'shoulds' that overly pressure and really don't fulfill me. Christine's insightfulness and warmth enabled me to see my situation in new ways, which has allowed me since to take steps [forward] sooner than if I had stalled in my isolated rumination.
