Bio
Samantha Chalmers
I hired Kathy as a business coach for my start up. I had never worked with a business coach, but knew I would need a significant amount of guidance. I took the CORE map through Kathy and it really unlocked a lot about myself and my potential as a business owner. It went so much deeper than a typical personality or strengths test. It helps me play to my strengths and be mindful of my characteristics that could limit my business. Kathy brings a wealth of knowledge to her clients. Her extensive background and experience is a real benefit. My start up is one year old, officially profitable and I am strategically planning for the next phase of growth. I know my business would not be this successful without Kathy's guidance. She keeps me accountable, gives me the tools to keep my business organized, monitors my progress and answers all of my questions. My growth as a business owner is 100% due to my relationship with Destination Breakthru!

I had the pleasure to work with Kathy on many different occasions and I am always blown away by the amount of knowledge this woman brings to the table. I have worked for her, I have hired her and I would recommend her to anyone that needs a coach. There are a lot of business coaches out there but what Kathy does is not only unique, it will stop you in your tracks and help you get accountable. She is sincere and genuinely works to help her clients. Last year, our company team each took the CORE map with Kathy and even my toughest critic, when it comes to personal development, enjoyed it and understood the value. We were really able to understand each other a little better and it was so much deeper than any other test or coaching system I've ever used. Some of our team still actively works with her for one-on-one coaching and I know I will again in the future. You cannot purchase what she provides in a book. I highly recommend that entrepreneurs, those in leadership roles or those stuck in a rut to contact her, she'll change your life.
