Coaching Services

Whether through traditional life coaching or equine-assisted coaching, together we will seek new perspectives and ways of thinking that are in alignment with who you are and what you want to accomplish. 

 

Let's untangle the misconceptions of who you think you should be, explore the situations that are causing you discomfort, and the thoughts or beliefs that are no longer serving you.

 

When you lift the veil of uncertainty, you'll find truth, clarity, and confidence, while changing your perception and setting better boundaries.  

 

Together, we will unlock the answers that lie within you!

"I have really enjoyed working with Kathy in one-on-one sessions and also as a participant in one of the group workshops she facilitates. Her attention to detail, while ensuring everyone’s safety in working with the horses, creates an environment where we learned and were able to benefit from her expertise and education."

Frequently Asked Questions

About Traditional Life Coaching

 

What is Life Coaching?

Life coaches work with healthy individuals who are seeking personal or professional growth. Life coaching is about meeting individuals where they are today and looking at what is working in their life and what obstacles, thoughts, and beliefs may be getting in the way of where they want to be.

 

Life coaches do this by observing and asking thought-provoking questions. You, as the client, provide the answers. As a life coach, I believe that each person knows exactly what to do and what will work best for them.

 

But just as an athlete needs a coach to assist in drawing out the best in themselves, likewise it’s beneficial to have an objective, non-judgmental, non-biased individual to support us as we strive to bring out the best in our lives.

It’s important to note that as a life coach, I do not treat mental health conditions, diagnose, or give medical advice.

What is the process for scheduling appointments? 

Individual coaching sessions begin with a 20 minute Discovery call. After our discussion, I will send a link for you to book a traditional coaching session.  Equine-Assisted coaching sessions  may then be scheduled after participating in either a traditional coaching session or you have attended a workshop with me and the horses.

 

How can I get the most out of my coaching sessions?     

It is best to have an idea of what you would like support with, yet be willing to be flexible and open to the possibility of going in a different direction. Also, come with an open mind regarding exploring thoughts and beliefs that may no longer be serving you.

How do I know if coaching is right for me?    

If you are a healthy individual who is in need of support in facing life challenges (professionally or personally), life coaching could be for you.

 

Before committing to a coaching session, we will schedule a 20-minute complimentary consultation call to determine if working together would be a good match. If after our getting-to-know-you call you would like to try out a coaching session. Still not sure? Before committing to purchasing a package you may purchase one introductory traditional coaching session. or you can try out one of each with a one-time introductory session that includes one Equine-Assisted and one Traditional Life Coaching session.

Can I get a coaching session without using a horse?

Yes, traditional life coaching sessions can be done over the phone, via video conferencing, or in person (extra fees may apply for in-person coaching).

About Equine-Assisted Life Coaching

What is (Equus) Equine-Assisted Life Coaching?

Have you ever wondered what it would be like to receive completely honest feedback about the unspoken messages you're conveying? That's what equine-assisted life coaching does. When you partner with horses' intuitive ability to respond and mirror your emotions and energy, you receive honest feedback. This provides clarity about how your relationships are impacted, giving you the confidence to make small adjustments to create the connections you truly want.

 

Through guided activities with horses, you'll uncover limiting patterns, strengthen your authentic leadership presence, and develop the self-awareness needed to create meaningful change.

Why should I trust getting coached in the presence of a horse?  

Horses do not have any vested interest in who we are. Their reactions to us are: honest, authentic, and non-judgmental. They simply can not lie, so we can trust the feedback we get from them.​​

​​

Do I need to have experience with horses?     

No horse experience necessary. Every coaching session is done from the ground on foot.

 

What are the benefits of purchasing more than one session at a time?     

By purchasing multiple sessions, you’re letting yourself and others know “I am committed to making an investment in my personal growth”.

 

The best results are gained when doing a series of coaching sessions as each session builds upon the other. With anything new, it takes time to implement, and questions, concerns, and obstacles will arise along the way that will need to be supported. Discounted rates are available when purchasing a package.

What do I wear to an equine-assisted coaching session?     

The weather in Kansas City varies. Please dress accordingly. Closed-toed shoes that protect your feet are required (no sandals or tennis shoes).

Why Horses?

“There is something about being with a horse that offers a powerful invitation to slow down, breathe-in fully, become present, and connect with our whole hearts. One of the most powerful life lessons that horses offer us is that everything begins with exploring the relationship with ourselves.


"Horses allow us to turn our attention inward to genuinely restore connection with ourselves and our intuitive wisdom. This permission to discover the subtleties of our own emotions, needs, and desires shows us what we truly need-in any moment-to feel safe enough to be utterly ourselves.”

- Koelle Simpson
