What the Client Said:

Portrait of Kristen Kippen, owner of Strategic Tax Planning, smiling confidently. She has shoulder-length blonde hair and is wearing a black blazer over a white blouse, accessorized with layered necklaces and bracelets, set against a white brick background.

"For the past several years, I was feeling more and more resentful of how my business seemed to run my life instead of the other way around. I’d done a lot of work with various business coaches and made significant progress, but I still lacked the cohesive systems and processes that would allow me to scale or step away from the day-to-day operations.

I started working with Caitlin three months ago and I can finally say I feel hopeful—for the first time

in years—that THIS is the year I’ll cross the finish line. Caitlin has been instrumental in fine-tuning and automating my discovery and onboarding processes, which has completely transformed my mindset.

I no longer dread onboarding a new client.

Instead, I feel excited and prepared because the systems we’ve implemented are setting me up

for success rather than stress. I know this isn’t an overnight fix, but I’m confident that Caitlin’s expertise will allow me to keep running my business while we work to build the systems and automations behind the scenes that I’ve always needed. I’m excited for the future and

grateful to finally see the light at the end of the tunnel."
