1:1 Coaching
You already know
something needs to change.
You’re not here by accident. Something brought you to this page — a quiet question, a hard moment, a feeling you can’t quite name but can’t quite ignore either.
That’s exactly the right place to start.
What this actually is
Not a course.
Not a workbook.
Not therapy.
Coaching is forward-facing. We’re not excavating the past — we’re building the future. I’m not diagnosing anything or treating anything.
I’m asking the questions no one in your life is positioned to ask — not because they don’t care, but because they’re in it with you. I’m not. I’m entirely in your corner, with no agenda except your clarity.
Here’s how it works. You bring the topic. You do the work. You own the outcome.
I ask the questions. I hold the space. And I don’t let you off the hook when the real answer is right there.
You don’t have to be in crisis to deserve this. The women I work with have good lives. That’s not the problem. The problem is that the life is good — and it still doesn’t feel like enough. That’s not ingratitude. That’s information.
If you’re already in therapy, coaching and therapy aren’t mutually exclusive — they work on different things. A lot of my clients do both.
You bring the topic
Every session starts where you are — not where a curriculum says you shold be.
You own the outcome
The insight, the decision, the change — that’s yours. I ask the questions. You do the work.
Forward-facing
We’re not excavating the past. We’re building from where you are right now.
When I started working with Christin Schaaf, I was looking for greater focus and clarity in how I showed up as a leader and how I navigated complex professional situations. Through out work together, I've gained stronger confidence, a deeper awareness of my purpose and impact, and a clearer leadership presence rooted in my values. Christin has helped me thoughtfully workshop challenging onversations and situations, so my intentions are clear and my leadership approach aligns with both my values and long-term career growth. If you're considering coaching but feeling unsure, I'd encourage you to pause and reflect — investing in someone like Christin is an investment you won't regret.

why not just...
You've probably already tried
the alternatives.
There’s no shortage of options. Here’s the honest breakdown.
01
The Book on the
Nighstand
There’s a book on your nightstand. Maybe more than one. Great information. No one to hold you accountable to any of it.
Gap: inspiration without a partner
02
The Free Coach from
HR
Free, convenient, and working for your employer. You can’t as the real questions with someone whose paycheck comes from the same place yours does.
Gap: coaching within a box
03
The Retired
Executive
Charging top rates to get you to the next level. Except achievement isn’t your problem. You’ve already achieved. The question you’re carrying isn’t about the next rung — it’s about whether the ladder is leaning against the right wall.
Gap: achievement-focused, not meaning-focused
I'm none of those. I've lived everything you're feeling — the layoffs, the reinventions, the quiet question that won't go away — and built a life on the other side of it.
I work with women who don't need another resource. They need someone who actually gets is.
" I didn't start over.
I started from where i was "
How it works
Three conversations.
One of them is free.
01
The Free Intro Conversation
Before anything else, we talk. No pitch, no pressure — just an honest conversation to figure out if this is the right next step for you. Maybe it is. Maybe what you need right now is something different.
Either way, you’ll leave knowing more than when you arrived.
This is where it begins.
02
1:1 Coaching — 6 or 9 Months
Two sessions a month, scheduled around your life. Between sessions, you’re not on your own — you have access to me when something comes up, when a conversation didn’t go the way you planned, or when you just need someone to think out loud with.
The sessions are yours to direct. You bring what’s alive for you. Some weeks that’s a decision you’ve been avoiding. Some weeks it’s just the first hour in a long time where someone is asking about you — and actually waiting for the real answer.
Initial commitments are 6 or 9 months, depending on where you’re starting and how far you want to go. That’s how change actually works — not in a single breakthrough, but in the accumulation of small ones.
Two sessions a month. You're already spending more time than that wondering what's missing.
03
Ongoing — Because It's Working
Two-thirds of clients don’t stop at the end of their initial commitment. Not because they’re moving and they don’t want help.
This is what it looks like when clarity becomes a way of living, not just a moment.
This is where "is this it?" stops being a question you whisper.
I'm none of those. I've lived everything you're feeling — the layoffs, the reinventions, the quiet question that won't go away — and built a life on the other side of it.
I work with women who don't need another resource. They need someone who actually gets is.
The Investment
A significant commitment.
In every sense.
This is a significant investment — in time, in energy, and yes, financially. The intro conversation is where we figure out together if it’s the right fit and the right time.
If the investment gives you pause, say so in our intro conversation. I’d rather have an honest conversation about what’s possible than have you talk yourself out of something before we’ve even met.
The women who hesitate on the investment are often the same women who will spend the next five years wondering what might have been different. That’s a longer and more expensive wait.
Working with Christin has been transformative. Under her guidance I finally am designing the life I want. I have grown so much — not only in my business but as a person. I cannot recommend her enough.

Ready?
The intro conversation is free..
The clarity is yours to keep.
No pitch. No pressure. Just an honest conversation to figure out if this is the right next step.
You’re not too late. You’re exactly on time — because you’re here, asking the question, which means some part of you already knows the answer.
