Hi! I’m Kathy

I’m a Purpose Strategy Expert. 

I started my career as a bright-eyed idealist, joining the Peace Corps straight out of college. Ever since that flight to Morocco, the idealist in me sees the opportunity of purpose in every challenge.

I live at the intersection of two worlds: the individual and the enterprise.

I am a coach for high-performing professionals who have climbed the corporate ladder only to lose part of themselves along the way. They followed the roadmap to success—checked the boxes, hit the milestones, chased the promotions—only to arrive at the summit and find that something was missing. The fulfillment they expected wasn’t there. Now, they’re searching for a different kind of “more”—more meaning, more contribution, more aliveness—but they don’t know where to find it.

I am also a business strategist with decades of corporate experience, including leading the Global Purpose Strategy for adidas, a $22 billion company. I’ve worked at the highest levels of leadership, inside boardrooms where strategy and culture are shaped. I’ve interviewed over 100 business leaders on my Purpose and Profit podcast (ranked in the top 2.5% of podcasts globally), uncovering how they are bringing heart, humanity, and accountability into every corner of their work.

At adidas, I built a strategy that transformed the company’s approach to sustainability, social equality, and diversity & inclusion.
