The empty nest transition is rarely just about the kids leaving. It’s about who you are in their absence. The role that organized your days, your identity, your sense of purpose ~ it’s all up for renegotiation now.


That’s not a problem to solve. It’s an invitation ~ if you have someone to help you hear yourself through it.


I work with women through private one-on-one coaching, a small group program, and immersive retreats. Here’s how to find the path that fits where you are.

Is This You?

THIS IS FOR YOU IF…

  • Your nest is empty ~ or almost empty ~ and you're not quite sure who you are in its absence
  • You sense something needs to shift, even if you can't quite name it yet
  • You're done waiting for things to sort themselves out on their own
  • You want support that meets you where you are, not advice, not a rigid plan, not someone telling you what to do
  • You're ready to be honest with yourself, even about the things that are uncomfortable to look at
  • You believe that this next chapter could be the most intentional one yet


THIS MAY NOT BE THE RIGHT FIT IF…

  • You're looking for someone to hand you the answers
  • You're seeking therapy or clinical mental health treatment
  • You're not yet open to examining your own role in how things unfold


If you're not sure whether coaching is right for you, that's okay. That's exactly what our free 30-minute conversation is for. You don't need to have it figured out before we talk.


One-on-One Coaching ~ Just the Two of Us

Private coaching is for the woman who wants this time to be entirely hers. Just her own story, her own pace, as deep as she wants to go.


Women often feel alone, without a space to process the depth and breadth of the empty nest experience. They arrive without the words for the uneasiness that's risen up as their kids needed them less, and unsure of what matters most to them now, or how to move forward with clarity and confidence.


Through our work together, they find those words. They find the clarity and confidence to move toward what matters to them now, even before they know exactly what that looks like. And they no longer have to hold it alone. My role is to listen deeply, ask questions that open things up, and reflect back what I hear. The direction is always yours. The depth and the next steps are what we co-create.

Offered in Discovery, Three-Month, and Six-Month sessions, meeting biweekly. 


We begin where you are ~ and build from there.


Discovery Package ~ 4 Biweekly Sessions
For the woman who isn't quite sure yet. Who senses something is shifting but isn't ready to commit to a longer journey ~ or who simply wants to feel what this kind of support is like before going deeper.

In four sessions, we begin wherever you are. This is enough time to start understanding yourself more deeply, and to get a clearer sense of what this transition is asking of you right now. Many women find this is enough to orient themselves ~ and some choose to continue into a longer engagement.


Includes: 4 biweekly sessions (60 minutes each) | A text check-in between sessions, just to see how you're doing | Summary and reflection notes

Investment: $600 | Paid in full at start


Three-Month Package ~ 6 Biweekly Sessions
For the woman who is ready to move through a meaningful chapter of this transition with sustained support.


Over three months, we can explore more of what's present for you. This is where deeper insights often emerge, uncovering patterns that may show up in various places in your life, and meaningful, lasting change becomes possible. It's enough time to truly work on closing the gap between where you are and where you want to be.


Includes: 6 biweekly sessions (60 minutes each) | A text check-in between sessions, just to see how you're doing | Optional values and strengths exploration, if useful to you | Summary and reflection notes

Investment: $900 | Paid in full, or 2 payments of $450


Six-Month Package ~ 12 Biweekly Sessions
For the woman who is ready for sustained, ongoing support and self-discovery.


Six months is where real transformation lives. It's enough time to not just understand what's shifting, but to move through it, uncovering what's true for you across every part of your life, at whatever pace that unfolds. This is enough time for lasting change to take root, not just insight, but a genuinely different way of living in this next chapter.


Women who work with me over six months often describe it as the first time they've ever given themselves this kind of sustained attention. Not selfish. Not indulgent.


Includes: 12 biweekly sessions (60 minutes each) | A text check-in between sessions, just to see how you're doing | Optional values and strengths exploration, joy inventory, and relationship reflection tools, if useful to you | Summary and reflection notes

Investment: $1,800 | Paid in full or 3 payments of $600


A limited number of sliding-scale spots are available each season for women for whom the full investment isn't currently possible. If that's you, I'd love to talk. Please don't let cost be the reason you don't reach out.

What Women Say About Working Together

"Kristin not only offers insight, she brings a remarkable intuition to her work. Often, I would feel stuck, unsure how to move forward. 


Through her listening and thoughtful reflections, she would suggest a perspective or possibility that consistently felt spot-on.


Change is not always easy, but Kristin has a way of helping me frame transitions in ways that feel doable and even energizing. Working with her has helped me approach change with greater openness, curiosity, and confidence."


~ Jodi L, California 



"Kristin has a unique ability to listen deeply and identify meaningful patterns in my behavior. Bringing awareness to those patterns helped me make subtle shifts that led to better outcomes, both personally and professionally.


I’ve benefited tremendously from working with her and highly recommend Sparking Positivity."

The Art of Flourishing

An 8-Week Experience for Women Navigating the Empty Nest Transition

The house is quieter than you expected. The routines that gave your days shape are dissolving. And somewhere underneath the pride and the love and the bittersweetness, a quiet question is getting louder. Who am I now? What's next?


These questions can bring up grief, uncertainty, even guilt for feeling unsettled when you're supposed to be proud. All of it is real, and all of it belongs here."


Between 40 and 66 percent of women experience empty nest syndrome when their child leaves for college. The emotions are real. The transition is real. And you deserve more than pushing through it alone.


The Art of Flourishing was built from two places at once: my own research into the challenges that arise most often during the empty nest years, and my own lived experience of what actually helped me flourish through it. Each week combines teaching grounded in positive psychology, guided reflection, and honest sharing among a small group of women moving through this same season of life, right alongside you.


This is not a lecture. It is not therapy. It's a warm, intimate circle of 8 women, learning together, reflecting together, and supporting one another, led by an ICF credentialed coach who has lived this transition herself and built this program from the inside out.

Many women arrive wondering if they have the time or energy for one more thing. Here is what one woman discovered:


"This is a wonderful opportunity to focus on YOU and what you want your life to look like. Kristin is a gentle, compassionate, and intuitive leader who brings her strength in Positive Psychology to guide participants to look deep inside at what brings us joy and peace, and how to bring that to the fore as we navigate this sometimes challenging time in life." ~ Mo W., California


Space is limited to 8 women ~ intimate by design.


If you've read this far, some part of you is already curious. That's usually where it starts.


A new circle is beginning January 2027, held virtually.

Return to Yourself

An Immersive Women's Retreat

Some things can't happen in an hour-long session. They require space. Beauty. The permission to be completely unavailable to everyone else for a few days.


This is a curated retreat for women in the midst of midlife and everything it is ~ a few days to exhale, reconnect, and remember who you are outside of everyone else's needs.


Through unhurried conversation, guided reflection, and time in a beautiful setting, you'll leave with more than restoration. You'll leave feeling more connected to yourself.


This is not a getaway. It is a return.


Planned for late spring or early summer 2027. Details coming soon. Join the wait list to be the first to know.
