Greetings!
One of my favorite artists from back in the day, Howard Jones, once sang "The old man said to me, don't always take life so seriously....Try and enjoy the here and now, the future will take care of itself somehow." And happily cautions in the chorus, "Don't try to life your life in one day, don't go speed your time away."
Over the long weekend I came into a newfound appreciation for the wisdom of his pop songs beyond what the catchy tunes, a cute face and big orange eighties mohawk hairdo did for me back then.
Fashion and music always come around again in slightly different forms. Nowadays with this economy everyone is cutting back and having to scale down and tap into whatever material and personal resources they have. It's a good time to reflect on what facets within you can be recycled and refurbished. What things about yourself, someone else or situation can you look at and see with new eyes, appreciate and/or put to use in a totally different way? What blasts from your past - whether a song, piece of clothing, relationship or talent in yourself can you relish now but in a more profound way?
Not sure what gems you might have forgotten about that can be dug up and polished off for your greater good? Give me a buzz and I'll help you do some excavating to resurrect those parts of your life that have been dormant far too long and show you by doing so that indeed, "Things can only get better" !

"Kristina is an amazing coach... I'm always impressed by her intuitive nature, creative
ideas, and insight to tap into the core. She is tremendously gifted and
has the ability to unblock obstacles that perhaps we didn't even know
existed as it's sometimes most challenging to see situations clearly
when you're immersed in them.
I'll have Kristina to thank when my upcoming big and delicious
publishing projects materialize -- her guidance and reinforcements I
need to hear about having patience with ingredients baking in the oven
have shaped my efforts! " -Vicki S. |

Kristina helped me see that my resume reflected this uncertainty and it was working against me. In just a half hour we defined more sharply what my true goals are and how to best revise my resume(s). I now look forward to communicating - on paper and verbally - a clear message that will lead me to a new opportunity". - Linda M.

"I got so much out of
our session and I know it will be an impetus to spring me into action! I
can already feel that a change is on the horizon.... I also wanted to let you
know that I felt inspired not only by your advice, but also by seeing how much
you love what you're doing. It's truly a gift to be able to listen and
provide such meaningful feedback. "-Nicole H.

nixed her career ideas during our consultation and now I'm actually
performing the job and loving every minute - doesn't feel like work at
all!" - Anonymous

"I had just lost my job a
few weeks earlier and I was a little out
of sorts. I attended Kristina's breakout session entitled "How Losing
Your Job
Can Be a Good Thing". After listening and actively participating in the
session, I was really able to put things in perspective. It allowed me
to dig deep within myself and really determine what I wanted to do with
my life. After the conference, I decided to have a one on one coaching
session, which helped validate my career goals, and have
also attended her Thursday at Three Transition Group meetings. Kristina
is truly an inspiration and I recommend her to anyone who is feeling a
bit lost and needs some career and life counseling." - Justin S.
