Frequently Asked Questions
I'm not sure I'm "senior enough" for coaching. Is this still for me?
Absolutely! You don’t need to be in the C-Suite to lead with clarity and impact. Many of my clients are mid-career women and men—managers, team leads, entrepreneurs, subject-matter experts—who are ready to own their voice, expand their influence, or make a meaningful shift.
What’s the difference between coaching and therapy?
Great question. Therapy often focuses on healing past wounds or diagnosing mental illness. Coaching is future-focused—we work together to move you forward, identify patterns, and build practical tools to support growth, confidence, and decision-making. If you’re functioning but feeling stuck, coaching may be the right fit.
What kinds of challenges do your clients bring to coaching?
Clients come to me with a wide range of goals, including:
- Feeling overlooked or undervalued at work
- Navigating burnout or career pivots
- Preparing for bigger leadership roles
- Wanting more confidence, boundaries, or clarity in their next chapter
- Feeling unheard when dominant voices are at the table
What if I don’t know what I want yet?
That’s completely okay. In fact, it’s one of the most common reasons why individuals seek coaching. Our work can help you untangle the noise, reconnect with what matters most, and take aligned action—one small step at a time.
What’s your coaching style?
My clients describe me as warm, intuitive, and inviting—but never pushy. I ask powerful questions, offer structure when you need it, and create a space where you don’t have to have it all figured out. We’ll go deep, but we’ll also make progress.
Do you offer online coaching?
Yes! Typically my sessions are offered through Zoom or Teams but I am available for in-person coaching as well.
How do I get started?
Let’s begin with a 1:1 meeting! It’s a no-pressure space to learn more about each other, explore what you’re looking for, and see if the fit feels right.

She offers keen insights and well though out observations that gift her clients with a host of new ways to think about old situations.

Not only did I walk away with personal insights that are still pushing me forward to this day, but I also gained wisdom on how to be a better coach because of Kim.
~ Antione, Senior HR Executive
Before working with Kim Schaaf, I was struggling with the confidence in making an important career decision. I was allowing others to hold me back in a way that were affecting my happiness and my career advancement. Through coaching I was able to build my confidence and identify what was necessary to make a move that would lead to personal satisfaction and career growth. Kim was always a very caring and knowledgeable coach that understood what it would take for me to get past the barriers that were holding me back. I am now in a better place were others are no longer have a negative influence on my career path. My future is much more positive and on a great trajectory to allow a positive work-life blend and full of advancement opportunities.
~ Ken, Director of Education
Kim is the kind of coach whose professional expertise and human warmth shine equally. As someone who experienced her coaching firsthand during our life/executive coaching training program, I quickly saw that she has a natural talent and presence that make her an outstanding coach. Even in virtual sessions, she “leans in” as an active, attentive listener, creating a space where clients feel heard and supported.
She’s also shown real courage and thoughtful planning in launching her own company. Her own lived experience navigating significant change will only deepen the value she brings to her clients.
~ Donna, Job Strategist and Non Profit Executive
I had the extreme pleasure of getting to know Kim as a fellow student in our life/executive coaching program. It was very clear, very early, that Kim has gifts and strengths that position her to be an incredible coach. Her empathy, ability to hear, observe, and assist clients to dive deep create an exceptional experience for her clients. I had the opportunity to be coached by Kim, and I felt I was learning from a seasoned lifelong coach. She stands out as a consummate professional and beautiful person and I look forward to collaborating with Kim and continuing to learn from her!
