Hi, I'm Kerri! I'm a personal development and leadership coach and work with women leaders, entrepreneurs, and professionals who are juggling the demands and stress of professional and family life and craving a practical flow of work balance, purpose, and freedom without sacrificing their value for excellence. 
Even before my transition into professional coaching, I had an innate drive to empower individuals to discover solutions that align with their values and heart. Through my own personal challenges, I gained a profound understanding of the importance of living from our values, eliminating untruths, and setting effective boundaries.
I had struggled with people pleasing, perfectionism, and overcommitment for decades! I've felt (and succumbed to) the pressure to save the day, do it better and hold it together.  You have strengths, unique gifts and talents, and dreams that get lost in all the busyness. Joy gets lost, too. I'm on a mission to help women reclaim joy and live free!

 "You can't go back and change the beginning, but you can start where you are and change the ending." ~ C. S. Lewis

On a Personal Note

 I'm a Midwestern gal married to a Southern guy, have four children (two are grown, one in college, and one in high school), and two grandchildren.  In 2020, our family moved to the beautiful and friendly coastal community of Hamstead, North Carolina. The sun and sea refresh my soul. I love taking my dog on beach walks (always with a frisbee), boating with the family, exploring islands, hiking in the woods, and reading on my porch swing. I enjoy unrushed cooking, playing games, goofing off, and laughing!  Jesus is my Savior and friend, and because of his grace, I am free indeed.
