Hi, I'm Kayla
MY PASSION IS BUILDING STRONG MARRIAGES FROM THE VERY BEGINNING.

I coach married Jewish women to create a foundation of love, confidence, and connection. I’d love to get to know you. Here’s a little bit about me...
I’m honored to get to do this work in many ways, with one-on-one clients, private group coaching, my online course for newlyweds, and my podcast How to Glow..
​
Having worked with groups in mentoring and educational settings since 2007 and receiving certification in Life Coaching from The Refuah Institute in 2014, I have been working one-on-one and in small groups with women of a variety of ages. In 2016 I attended an advanced skills workshop with Brooke Castillo of the Life Coach School, then certified as a Life Coach School coach in 2020, which serves as the basis of my coaching today.
​
As a marriage coach, I am strongly influenced by the work of Rabbi Dr. Akiva Tatz, Rav Aharon Feldman, Bev Aron, Alison Armstrong, Dr. Pat Love, Dr. Leonard Sax, Dr. Louann Brizendine, and Esther Perel.​
​
In today’s world where we focus so much attention on the engagement and wedding and very little resources are available for achieving success in marriage, I am especially inspired by my clients who are determined to find better solutions and deeper understandings to help them have a connected and inspirational marriage.
WHAT I DO WITH MY CLIENTS…
My original focus was specifically on women whose parents were divorced. I was seeing strong feelings of anxiety and concern from these women and sought to give them a program that would show them that marriage is “figure-out-able.” It’s not a scary hit-or-miss and your parents’ marriage does not need to be a determining factor of your own marriage’s health.
When several women approached me with very similar feelings despite not “fitting in” to the divorced-parent niche, I expended my focus to all newly married Jewish women. Since then, the First Year Married course has gone through several different versions and iterations--live, asynchronous, large, small, and everything in between! I'm always looking to improve it and make the material easier to internalize and use.
​
To date I have coached hundreds of women from 1:1 to groups and classes, I have begun to hear even more from married women and have gained additional insights into the first years of marriage–and many years beyond.
​
I now work with married Jewish women in my group coaching program, How to Glow, and continue to work with newlyweds privately and through the First Year Married course.
