Kara is also a divorce survivor – she made the difficult decision to end her 10-year relationship in the midst of the pandemic.

In her divorce, Kara saw the power of coaching and decided to transition to divorce coaching.

Kim has first-hand experience navigating divorce and co-parenthood. As a former attorney, she navigated her amicable low-cost divorce to experience a costly high-conflict co-parenting dispute years later. Determined to help others save money, time, and stress by minimizing avoidable mistakes (before, during, and after divorce), she became a family mediator and divorce coach (currently certified in divorce, co-parenting, and conflict coaching). In a safe, non-judgmental space, clients discover internal strength to create their divorce roadmap based on their values, needs, interests, and concerns. By gaining clarity, coping with difficult emotions, exploring options, and enhancing effective communication and conflict management skills, her clients find the confidence to make the best possible decisions for their desired future and those that matter most. Kim resides in the Rocky Mountain region with her 14-year-old puppy and is the proud single parent of a thriving son.
