Discover how one client turned unexpected loss into a profound journey of self-trust, clarity, and renewed purpose, offering inspiration for anyone standing at the threshold of change.


Client Profile:

​

A purpose-driven professional in her early 40's navigating a sudden job loss.

Her previous role felt like “as good as it was ever going to get”—despite low pay, no benefits, and a lack of recognition. When she was let go, she reached out to Kristell for coaching the very next day, ready to rewrite the narrative.

She was feeling beat up, worried about the future and uncertain about her next right steps.  Her initial language was, “I feel like I’ve been kicked off a train and I’m not sure what to do at the station while I wait for the next train.  What if the next train doesn’t come?”

Presenting Challenge:

This client just turned 40 when the layoff hit, a moment that could’ve signaled crisis, but instead became the catalyst for conscious reinvention.

Kristell shares, "Often my clients are navigating some kind of transition—job loss or gunning for a promotion, the death of a spouse or parent, empty nesting or a big birthday like 30/40/50.  They are wondering what the next phase holds for them." 

While this client received career counselling for resume writing and interview prep, she knew she needed more than tactics. She needed to feel empowered—and to tend to her soul.

She was grieving the loss of identity, battling fear about the future, and questioning her worth.  There was also a concern of allowing old habits and patterns to creep back in, so she needed accountability for this.  

Coaching Objectives:
 

• Create space to grieve the job loss and honor the emotional transition

• Rebuild a sense of worthiness and self-trust beyond external validation

• Reframe the “in-between” as sacred, not shameful

• Support her in reclaiming her voice and making soul-aligned decisions

• Guide the client in recognizing and interrupting habitual patterns that no longer serve her

• Cultivate accountability practices that align with her values, voice, and vision

Approach & Modalities Used:

​

• Co-active coaching to explore identity, values, and emotional processing

• Ritual-based planning to anchor her days in rhythm and intention

• Human Design insights to align her career path with her energetic blueprint

• Seasonal strategy to honor timing, rest, and intuitive action

• Pattern tracking and ritual-based reflection to identify recurring behaviours, emotional triggers, and energetic dips, creating a compassionate container for self-awareness and empowered action.

Client Reflections:
 

“Kristell helped me navigate a difficult transition—giving me space and gentle guidance to sort through the chaos in my brain.”

“I’m no longer an unemployed bum 😂. Truly, it’s been the definitive realization that my power is my voice.”

“Speaking my authentic truth, being unapologetically myself allows me to make decisions that are meant for me. When I use my voice, the right things come to me.”

“I would give way more than 5 stars if I could. I am beyond grateful for the time we’ve had together!”

 

“You’ve helped me more than words can express!”
