What is your favorite family strengths memory? I had an 'aha' moment when I realized my brother was motivated by the competition strength. This insight has led me to much greater understanding. And I will never forget  learning that five out of the six family members my husband grew up with have WOO! There is never a dull moment with them.

Why Strengths Coaching with Families? My bachelor's degree is in Family Science & Human Development.One of the best gifts we can give our family is personally investing in them as individuals and affirming their best qualities. Strengths Coaching is a great way to build a healthy family unit. It's so rewarding to see how strengths transforms and deepens family relationships -- not only as a family unit, but a better understanding among siblings and family dynamics.

What is your favorite family strengths memory? My favorite strengths memory is realizing why my dad is such a great listener: his Intellection and Deliberative talents encourage him to both think deeply, and process his ideas thoroughly before sharing them. This makes him so intentional and thoughtful, which in turn makes me so thankful to be his daughter.

Why Strengths Coaching with Families? I want to facilitate strengths coaching with families, because my own has grown so much in our understanding of each other through CliftonStrengths. Even in our most challenging moments, we're now able to pull back and really consider if we're speaking to/being respectful of the unique mindsets we bring to the table. I feel like I need to pay this magic forward!

“I wasn't sure about this at first, but I’m grateful I was lol ‘forced’ into it. Knowing my Strengths has been transformational and affirming in how to lead.  From engineering classes and group projects to everyday relationships, it has helped me own my best traits. Understanding my ‘Arranger’ and ‘Responsibility’ strengths has empowered me to be comfortable stepping up more and setting the pace for my teams. Using ‘Harmony’ to help others gain a down-to-earth perspective when emotions run high has been really rewarding.”  – Blake, University of Kansas Student

“I cannot say enough about this incredible experience; it was by far one of the best two-hour investments we have ever made together as a family.  Now, months later, our time with Kristen has continued to help us better understand each other, realizing our unique strengths and attributes, and giving us a language to discuss it. My goal was simple – I wanted to empower our young adult children with the tools, insight and language of ‘Strengths’ they could use on resumes and in job interviews as they explored career opportunities.  I had no idea how impactful it would be.  It has bolstered their confidence and brought us closer with a deeper appreciation and understanding of the very best we have to give each other.”  – Joanne Morrell, Mom

"Our family loved our Strengths Retreat. It was a great experience to discover our own strengths, learn more about them and understand ways to enhance those natural abilities into true assets. It also giving us a chance to learn about each other. I loved the conversation before, during and after and I hope to continue the conversation to help each other get stronger and fine-tune our strengths." - Tara Dimick, Mom
