I am a renaissance woman living my re-inspirement life as owner of Kalinda Creations, a wellness program dedicated to helping people create a life of balance, joy and peace. I lead workshops, retreats and day quests on my ranch, and coach people who want the tools to realize their own dreams and create a chosen life. I specialize in coaching people interested in life wellness who are ready to design their future. Although I have "retired" after 30+ years from the field of public and private education, I continue to re-inspire life with my energizing business.
If you don't follow your dream, who will?

Since coaching with Kathie I have a new excitement for what is next in my
life. When we began, I felt vague about what I wanted for my future.
Kathie helped me reveal my purpose and dreams, and get started on
them right away! I am happier than I've ever been.

artist, life adventurer
I have appreciated Kathie as an experienced coach who is consistently insightful and challenges me to be more than I thought possible. During coaching sessions she connects me with what I'm already doing that I can use in new situations and this has been very helpful.

Coaching with Kathie has benefited me by giving me support in making
a career transition. I was struggling with real life decisions and the
clarity that came from our sessions has made my life more balanced
and predictable. I like it!
