[Kelsey] has a process that quickly gets to the root of what is holding you back from reaching your goals, and then works with you so you can move beyond those limitations.  She is caring and empathic, but makes sure you don't get too bogged down in the past...she's all about helping you move forward and be your best self.

Working with Kelsey Banfield has been life changing! She’s helped us build our lives and our business in alignment with our core values. We are exploring possibilities we never dared imagine. She is a wonderful resource and we are thankful to have her support and guidance.

After our coaching together I feel great! I really enjoyed our sessions and looked forward to them. I’m excited for the opportunities ahead and to continue to see things happen as they should. I feel like I have a better outline of what I should do from here.

— Mindy B., Photographer

“ Working with Kelsey has been nothing short of life changing.  They say that only you can do the work, but in order to do the right and good work, you need guidance - and that is Kelsey.  I didn’t know what I wanted, where I was going, quite frankly I was floundering and with Kelseys help, after just 12 weeks, I feel like I am a brand new person.  I got my mojo back.  I believe in myself and in the power to be the change needed. I constantly have people saying to me, “You look different!  What have you done?”

Kelsey has an amazing program and approach to finding what you need.  And, she is always there for you, your biggest cheerleader and listener.

I went from jobless, stagnant and a ridiculous rent to a fabulous new job, bought a magical new home, and I am happier than ever - in 12 weeks.  It is not magic (or is it?) -  you have to put in the time, but I can attest that it is well worth it.  

And besides all that, Kelsey is a lovely human.  1,000% recommend! ”

Every minute that I've spent with Kelsey has yielded gold. I cannot recommend her highly enough. She helped me challenge my assumptions with thoughtful questions and gentle encouragement, which ultimately led me to reframe my life in a way that's allowing me to move forward in alignment with my values. She helped me to make tough decisions slowly and steadily, and I feel confident after working together almost a year that it was one of the best investments I could make in myself, personally and professionally.

When it came to executive coaching, I was not a believer. That all changed with Kelsey. She is an invaluable resource to me. I strongly recommend Kelsey to anyone looking for guidance and support in their career journey.

— Paul B.
Corporate Executive

After working with Kelsey for two years, we can truly say that she has changed the way we work and live our lives. Through weekly meetings, we have gained so much knowledge around clarifying our goals, indentifying the obstacles that hold us back, and coming up with strategies to overcome these challenges. Kelsey has given us the tools that help us stand in our worth and go after the projects that uplevel our brand with confidence. We would not have flourished in the past two years without her guidance and support; she's are biggest cheerleader and for that, we are so grateful.

“ My path was not a linear one, but that did not phase Kelsey in the slightest. She has a way of looking at the world that surprised me every time we met and, more importantly, gave me lots to think about between sessions. From small practical adjustments to radical big-picture shifts, Kelsey was instrumental in helping me move forward. I highly recommend working with her. ”

- Rachel U., Writer

“ I had taken a workshop with Kelsey a few years ago, and had met her at some networking events. I loved her energy and “can do” attitude. Speaking with her, she exudes a wonderful combination of capability and calm. While I was feeling all over the place with my business ideas, she was able to really hone in on what my goals were, and laid out a detailed, but not overwhelming, plan. Her guidance and accountability kept me on track in a way I hadn’t been able to on my own, and I made more progress in three months than I had in years. I wish I had begun working with her much sooner! 

- BRANDI K., BUSINESS OWNER

 

“ After glowing reviews from several respected colleagues, I hired Kelsey to consult with me at the time of a life crossroads. My photography business had recently entered its second decade, we became empty-nesters in a new community and I wanted to explore appropriate growth avenues for my business.

Kelsey's approach was helpful from day one. She helped me identify priorities for my business that were true to my values and her advice not only has helped my work life but also my personal life. She is insightful, direct, intelligent and kind. I highly recommend Kelsey. ”

- Jane Beiles, Photographer

 

“ I highly recommend working with Kelsey! Looking back at where I was to where I am now is both exciting and motivating. Kelsey guides you through a process that is transformative as it brings about clarity, purpose, gratefulness and emotional maturity.

Her gifts of intellect, insight, understanding and acceptance allow for your deepest self to trust the process. It feels great to make choices that are in line with my values, trust myself and feel confident that I can have what I want in life. If you are lucky enough to work with Kelsey, jump right in and do the work! ”

- Jennifer G.

“ Kelsey is a gifted listener, advisor and coach. She has been a trusted guide for me as I've navigated a revised shape of my business, understanding the intricacies of my specific hurdles.

She inspired me to dig deep and find the language I needed at this time of transition for me and my business.

Kelsey is smart, so well-read, and kind as they come. I feel utterly grateful to have Kelsey as my business coach, and I recommend her whole-heartedly. ”

- Lindsay Hurty, Everwell

“ Getting emails from Kelsey for years I always knew what she was doing but didn't understand how. It wasn't until I took the time to sit down with her and understand all her questions I kinda knew the answers to, I just had to find them for myself.

Her approach, her "homework" and her follow up helped me organize how I do things, why and helped me plan for the future. She knew and understood the big picture and it was so cool to come up with the answers myself. Thank You Kelsey! ”

“ Working with Kelsey has had a profound affect on my life. At first, I thought I just needed to level up one area, but I soon realized that all aspects of our lives are linked, so progress and change happened in many areas.

Kelsey helped guide me through some deep work and then held space for me as I navigated what I wanted and how to get there, all the while encouraging me with her calm demeanor and kindness. If you want to level up your life or business, you should definitely work with Kelsey. She's a great listener, confidante and coach! ”

- ELIZABETH M, BUSINESS OWNER

“ Working with Kelsey over the last two years has been a life-altering experience. I would never have made the changes or forged ahead with a plan to launch a new business (somewhat late in life!) without Kelsey's steady  and always bright and thoughtful guidance, focus on values and her endless toolkit of practical and deeply fundamental tweaks.

As I look back, I know that I would not be doing what I do, as happily as I do it, were it not for Kelsey. She is and was a game-changer and anyone who gets to work with her is truly fortunate. ”
