"When I realized my career had advanced as far as possible within a corporate studio structure, Kari worked with me to assess the pros and cons of starting my own business. Throughout this process, I found Kari to be a world class listener and sounding board. She empathizes, but isn’t afraid to push for change or to discourage magical thinking. Her ability to reframe challenges, identify real world opportunities, and build actionable steps specific to my situation and goals, was truly unique and helped clarify my path forward."
