In a moment, life can shift...
We all have seasons of scary change: The unexpected layoff, the sudden reassignment, the downsized team and growing workload.
Your sleep worsens. Your confidence weakens. You imagine catastrophic events and feel helpless to prevent them.
You know change is needed, but your self-worth and identity feel fractured. Instead of confident action, you distract yourself with food, alcohol or escape into social media.
You want a role that offers stability, growth, reward and fulfillment.
But your inner critic is strong. Do you have what it takes? Can you deliver? Shouldn’t you be there already?
You’re stuck and stagnating. Maybe your best days are behind you. Maybe you should aim lower.
On good days, you know better.

Hi, I’m Dr. Kristin
I’m a change expert and coach to high achievers facing career change.
I studied motivation and psychology and spent +15 years in management and leadership roles. I've pivoted twice in my own career and know how we can sabotage ourselves and limit our growth.
I founded Blooming Lotus Lab after watching too many high achievers fall victim to burnout or surrender their dreams in frustration.
I KNOW you were made for more because in 2012, I heard the same whisper and followed it.
The world needs your gifts and strengths. Let's create change for good.
You WERE made for MORE!

The Upside of Envy
I was picking through my mail one weekday afternoon when a sharp voice pierced the air.
“Drop the gun. I said, drop the gun!”
I froze. Every nerve at attention. I leaned toward an open window. Did I hear…?
“DROP. THE. GUN!!”
My heart surged against my ribcage. I envisioned a thick-necked tough guy with a pistol standing on the threshold of my neighbor’s home. Justin had just moved in. He didn’t seem like someone with underworld ties…
Jane Goodall was an early hero of mine. In the 1980s, I consumed hours of television documenting her climbing up hillsides and sitting calmly as wild chimpanzees cantilevered around her.
Years later, as a student, I began to understand more clearly the tenacity and patience research required.
Most importantly, my stockpile of heroes grew.
One mentor-hero stands out.
Not only for the scope of her influence, but for the characteristics and practices that enabled her impact.
What documentaries and grad school courses don’t share often enough.
FOMO (fear of missing out), envy, jealousy. The drivers of drama and sides of ourselves we hesitate to reveal. And yet, to feel any of these emotions is what it is to be human.
Every one of us will encounter envy at one point or another. In this digital age, it’s impossible to avoid.
But envy can be more than a shallow emotion. It can also reveal hints
The next time envy seizes you, get curious. What’s desirable? What does that thing really represent to you? Beyond the surface of the object or state, what’s the attraction?
