Why Most Businesses
Hit a growth ceiling
If you’re like my clients, some things are working. Some things aren’t. The business is moving, but not as fast or smooth as you know it could, and you’re still doing more of the heavy lifting than you’d like.
Most of the time it comes down to a few things:
01
Growth is creating more stress instead of more freedom.
02
Your team is capable but still needs you in the middle of everything.
03
You’ve outgrown how you used to run things, but haven’t built the systems for what’s next.
That’s where coaching comes in.

“Within a year of working with Karie, our business grew 60% and my stress and hours were down at least 50%. One year later, I sold the business. The following year, I sold my second business. My only regret is that I was referred to Karie a full year prior to working with her, and I don’t know why I waited so long.”
Claire Akin
Indigo Marketing Agency
“My business has nearly 10x’d in the 8 years I’ve been working with Karie. When we started, I was buried in client work and not really leading. She helped me grow into the CEO my company needed and build a solid leadership team. Now we have 50+ therapists (and counting), reaching some of the most under-served communities in the United States. I’m so grateful to Karie for helping us build an amazing team that’s passionate about our mission.”
Ryan Landinguin
RL Therapy Group
“When I started working with Karie 15 years ago, my business was already on track to grow, but I wanted to make sure it was profitable and sustainable. Over the years we worked together to build the management team, acquire other businesses, and get systems in place — and this year I sold the business! We’re now working on our dream home in Hawaii, and I know the business is in good hands as Karie continues to coach the new owner.”
Dawn Carvajal
The Wild Thyme Company
“It was easy to decide to work with Karie once I saw her success rate with clients and also how she was successful in her own right. We surpassed our goal in the first year of working together, 10x’d the business over the next 5 years, and continue to refine the systems and operations for new levels of growth. Although I’m extremely excited about the success of the business, my greatest achievement working with Karie is the balance I’ve achieved in my life. I work half the hours and vacation four times as much, while earning much more. Quality of life is the greatest measure of success.”
Abhay Schweitzer
Techne
“Karie helped me make some drastic changes in my business. She was extremely helpful in coaching me to grow my business and build the sales team. As a result, our sales have doubled year over year, and I am far less involved in the day-to-day. “
Alex Wender
Bluewave Insurance Services
“I started working with Karie as I was preparing to take over the family business from my father. I had worked in the business for 20 years, but it was a huge shift for me to become the CEO. Karie has helped us navigate the transitions, and not just maintain what my parents had built, but really take it to the next level. We’ve already accomplished so much, and I’m excited to be building a legacy for the next generation.”
Ryan Stecklair
Family Interiors
“Karie, all of us at ADVANTEC want to thank you for your coaching guidance in the past 4 years. We have doubled our staff size and our revenue since then, and your coaching is important for us to continue to grow with a strong company culture that emphasizes teamwork and people-centric policies. Thank you and wish you every success, because your success is our success!”
Leo Lee
ADVANTEC
“Before working with Karie, I was stuck wearing every hat in my business. She helped me build a real team, implement systems, and grow revenue by over 40% in the first year. For the first time, I feel like a business owner instead of just a guy with a job.”
