for the women between chapters

the next version of you doesn't need to be invented, she just needs to be uncovered.

welcome to KIN

no matter the season - a career that no longer fits, a relationship that's shifting, an identity that's quietly shedding, an age you didn't expect to feel this tender - they're all asking the same question.

who are you, really?

KIN is built on the belief that the answer lives in you. not in another framework, another plan, another person telling you what to do. the work here is radical self-leadership - taking full ownership of your life, your patterns, your choices, and what you're available for going forward.

this is for the woman who is ready to feel vital again. to feel like herself again. to stop moving through her days on autopilot and start actually inhabiting them. to flirt with her own life a little. to be so full of her own essence that there's no room left for anything that isn't hers.

it really is all possible. want to meet her?

how we can work together

some seasons need deep work. others just need a reference point. whatever it is you’re being called to - we’ve got you.

  • my signature 1:1 mentoring for when you can feel the next version of yourself forming and are ready to actually become her. i walk alongside you and permission you to unravel and reveal what's been there all along.

    who this was built for:

    • you are ready to live freely in your own life - and you're tired of knowing that without actually feeling it

    • you crave a freedom and lightness you can't quite explain, and you've stopped trying to logic your way there

    • you are ready to pivot - your career, your relationships, your beliefs, your identity - and you want to do it from the inside out

    • you've been the capable one for so long that you've lost track of what you actually want

    • you've read the books, done the work, had the realizations - and something still hasn't moved

    • your outer life looks functional but your inner life is starving for something more true

    • you are ready to take radical responsibility and lead yourself into what comes next

    what we actually do:

    • we start with your why - not as a productivity exercise, but as an act of reclamation. what is actually pulling you forward, underneath all the conditioning

    • we learn what your nervous system has been doing underneath everything - the patterns it developed to keep you safe - and we start to give it something new to orient around

    • we map the patterns and parts that have been quietly running your decisions - and we meet them with curiosity instead of shame

    • we bring in your Human Design and energetics here, once you have enough context for it to land so it becomes personal instead of theoretical, confirmation instead of concept

    • we practice the art of receiving - expecting what you've asked for, letting it land, staying open when it arrives

    • we build the devotion and discipline to hold what you call in, so the next version of you has somewhere to live

    • none of this stays in your head. it lands in your body, and that's what makes it stay

    book a connection call.

  • an always-evolving collection of resources - voice notes, guides, somatic prompts, books, music, and podcast recommendations curated from fifteen years of living and working inside liminal seasons.

    who this was built for:

    • you're just starting out in your becoming journey and you have no idea what is happening - only that something is

    • you need reference and language for where you are, because right now it just feels like a lot of sensation without a name

    • you're not ready for 1:1 work yet, but you're done pretending you don't need anything

    • you've read the books, followed the accounts, saved the quotes - and you're still waiting for something to actually name what you're in

    • your outer life looks mostly fine, which makes the inner restlessness harder to explain, even to yourself

    • you're looking for a place to return to - not a program to complete

    what you'll find here:

    • voice notes and reflections that meet you where you are, the way a conversation with someone who's been through it actually does

    • somatic prompts that help you locate what you're feeling in your body before your mind tries to edit it

    • curated reading, listening, and music for the specific textures of in-between seasons

    • language that makes you exhale - not because it fixes anything, but because it finally names it

    • a living library that keeps growing, because liminal seasons don't follow a syllabus

    join the library.

  • a 60-minute somatic session for when something in you needs clarity and your mind alone can't get you there.

    who this was built for:

    • you're curious about somatics but you don't know where to start - you just know that thinking harder isn't working

    • you're standing at an edge right now - a decision, a conversation, a turning point - and you need someone to help you hear what your body is already saying

    • you want clarity quickly, but not the kind that skips over you - the kind that's specific to your wiring, your patterns, your moment

    • you've learned about your Human Design but it's still living in your head - you want to feel it, not just understand it

    • you don't need a long container, you need one precise conversation at exactly the right time

    • something is live in you right now and you don't want to wait until it passes to deal with it

    what we do:

    • we follow what's present in the room - nothing is pre-scripted, nothing is generic

    • we use somatic awareness to slow the moment down enough that your body can tell you what your mind has been talking over

    • we bring your Human Design in as a living map, not a personality test - so the session confirms something you already sense about how you're built

    • we work with what's happening right now, in real time, so you leave with clarity you can actually move from

    • sometimes that looks like something settling. sometimes it looks like language finally clicking into place. either way, something lands.

    book a somatic session.

  • because the in-between season in life can be overwhelming as is - here are a few ways to start you on your journey.

  • "I'm actually mind blown. Kari will say she isn't the one doing anything, but this new job doesn't happen without her. She is magic and gold and everything good in the world"

    rachel, seattle

  • "Kari is a powerful and magical teacher who illuminated so much about myself that I hadn’t fully seen before. I highly recommend her to anyone seeking growth, self-discovery, and meaningful transformation."

    amanda, detroit

  • "You have inspired me. To think differently, to question what I have always known, to embrace this next chapter with every ounce of my being, even if it's scarier than hell. THANK YOU."

    jen, seattle

  • “Kari has incredible presence, intuition, and deep attunement. Her way of holding space is powerful, tender, and deeply effective. Kari held such a grounded, real space for me."

    katya, new york

  • “It was such a sigh of relief and breath of fresh air to discuss experiences and desires that resonated to us both. It helped me feel less alone and misunderstood but also hopeful and reassurance that I’m on the right path.”

    estephany, miami

kin is for the women who know there’s more

the woman in transition from love - she just left something that mattered, or she's stepping toward something new after years of going it alone. she's not just navigating a relationship. she's redefining who she is inside of one.

the woman questioning the ladder - laid off, promoted, or just quietly done with a path she worked hard to build. the uncertainty isn't the scary part. the scary part is that she's not sure she wants to go back.

the woman who's started over - new city, new chapter, holding loneliness and possibility in the same hand. she's braver than she feels and she knows it.

the woman whose friendships have quietly stopped fitting - she's not ungrateful. she's just hungry for something more real, more mutual, more alive.

the woman who has been holding it together for everyone else for so long she's forgotten what it feels like to be held herself.

the woman outgrowing her own story - the roles, the labels, the version of herself other people still expect. she can feel who she's becoming. she just needs somewhere to do it.

the woman finding her way back to her body - starting to listen instead of override. starting to trust what she feels over what she's been told to think.

the woman who knows something is ending before she has words for it - and is finally ready to follow what's calling instead of waiting for permission.

hi, i’m kari

a certified somatic coach and mentor who has spent fifteen years living inside the exact seasons i now help women navigate.

divorce in my late 20s. moving states with no job lined up. a deep spiritual unraveling that changed everything. a corporate career that took me around the world but stopped fitting somewhere along the way. a global promotion that looked right on paper. finding love again in my 40s. buying a home. getting laid off after buying that home. and then - building this.

none of it came with a how-to guide. what it came with was a body that kept telling me the truth even when i wasn't ready to listen, and reference points along the way that kept saying - keep going, you're right on time.

i can't live on the surface even when i try. it's just not how i'm wired. so instead i built a space that goes all the way down - into the body, the patterns, the stories that have been running the show, and the version of you that's been waiting underneath all of it.

i live in portland with my partner and norte, a bernese mountain dog who is truly too good for this world. i'm inspired by nature, deep conversation, women who refuse to stay small, and the kind of humor that only comes from having lived something real.

this work is my life's work. and i'm here to permission you into yours.
