Hello, I’m Kristina
I am so excited you're here! The kind of excitement you feel setting your "out of office" message for that last moment before a week-long vacation.
Well, don't be shy — come on in. Let me introduce myself. I'm Kristina, your Financial Fluency & Productivity Coach. Now, as my son would say, "come get cozy" — and let me share a little of my story with you.
Where I Was
Imagine returning from an incredible trip to Mexico — sun on your face, sand under your feet, your husband and three-year-old son by your side. Life feels about as good as it gets.
Then, heading back to work, you get an email from a Partner at the Big Four firm where you've built your career, asking to meet first thing your first day back — for a "conversation." Unsettling, sure. But nothing prepares you for walking into that office and finding an HR representative sitting there too.
What happened next, I never saw coming.
In the fall of 2019, a decade-plus career with a Big Four accounting firm ended — the result of goals that no longer aligned. I was also seven weeks pregnant with my second child. It felt devastating in the moment (hormones didn't help). But it was the beginning of everything I was purposed for.
Resilience isn't something I learned. It's woven into my fabric. My father used to call me a "sleeper" — someone full of potential who simply hadn't woken up to it yet. Once I did, there was no stopping me. Leaders I worked with called me a "hound-dog," because I didn't quit until I got the result I was after.
Losing that job didn't just close a chapter — it uncovered a creative spark I never knew I had. I bloomed in ways I didn't realize I could.
That spark became the seed of Resiliency Bloom.
Where I Am
I have always had a deep desire to lead, teach, and empower people with the tools to become even greater than they already are.
I've seen firsthand how hardworking and self-sacrificing women can be — often putting their own needs last, deferring their own well-being while managing everyone else's. So here's your encouragement: there's a better way, and you can do all the things you've ever imagined.
Today, I'm a Financial Fluency & Productivity Coach, helping women build financial fluency — the confidence and clarity to understand their money, not just manage it. Drawing on my background in budget and financial management, leadership development, and project management, I help women recognize deferred risk before it compounds, practice informed accountability in the decisions they make, and align their energy with what actually matters.
Through the Rest to Rise™ approach, I help women prioritize their time, restore their energy, and master their money — building phenomenal, purpose-driven lives without sacrificing themselves to get there.
Stick with me. I've got you covered — with tools for better productivity, lessons in financial fluency, and everything in between to help you rise into your best self.
Ready? Let's begin the journey together.
