How Coaching Helped a Lawyer Balance Business, Family, and Personal Growth

This is the story of a serendipitous meeting at a trade fair just a year ago that blossomed into a powerful coaching journey.

I’m truly honored to work with such an extraordinary, creative and reflective woman, who can write so beautifully and whose dedication to managing her life as a lawyer, helping run the firm, and raising two young children is so admirable. Over the past year, we’ve partnered together to strengthen her resilience, helping her navigate challenges with greater confidence and clarity.

Her testimonial reflects the transformative impact of our work together, highlighting the growth and empowerment she has experienced.

Starting my own law firm while caring for two young children was a challenging and overwhelming experience. Balancing multiple roles, I often felt uncertain and out of place. I realized that to effectively lead my firm, I first needed to rediscover my values, strengths, and goals—in essence, to lead myself.

With these thoughts in mind I met Karla at RA EXPO in Cologne and was immediately impressed by her energy. Working with her was one of the best decisions I’ve made. In just eight months, I have become more focused on my goals, gained a clear understanding of my values and strengths, and developed habits that support continuous growth. The ideas and action plans that emerged from each coaching session motivated me to stay on track and keep on striving for personal and professional improvement. Additionally, I am profoundly grateful for the bond we slowly formed, built on trust, mutual respect, and honesty.

Karla’s wisdom extended beyond our sessions through her newsletters and additional materials on various topics we discussed, which I deeply appreciate as a fact-driven lawyer. I highly recommend Karla for her expertise and goal-oriented approach. Her guidance consistently left me with a sense of joy, excitement, and clear direction.
