Maybe it's a career change, a relationship, a project that won't move, or what's next. You've researched and asked around, and you still check the final call against a voice that isn't yours. Some clients left religion, came out, or rebuilt after a big change. Others never left anything. The pattern is the same.
You hit the milestones you were supposed to want. They still don't feel like yours.
Choices about how you live still get checked against people who aren't in the room.
You keep moving, and nothing moves forward.
None of these voices are yours, but they're still talking. Left alone, they keep deciding for you, and the cost adds up: burnout, exhaustion, creating out of obligation instead of joy, and decisions that never quite feel like yours.
It doesn't have to stay that way. When you can hear your own voice, trust it, and choose it, you can move forward on what you've been stuck on.

Each session works on something real in front of you now: a decision, a project, or what's next.
I won't tell you what to do. I ask the questions that help you hear what you already know.
A fixed-length program in three phases, with support between sessions so you follow through.
My clients have already gotten plenty of input from friends, family, books, and podcasts. So we start somewhere else: with what you already know, and why it's been hard to listen to.
Notice whose voice has been making your decisions. Learn to tell your own apart from inherited rules, anxiety, and shame.
Claim your values, your wants, your right to say no. Let go of the rules that aren't.
Choose your own voice over the inherited ones, in real situations, until acting from it feels like yours.
On paper, things were going well: I studied at Yale University and worked in tech, including at Microsoft. Underneath, I was leaving the religion I grew up in and coming out as queer. KA stands for kol atzmi, Hebrew for "my own voice." Helping people find theirs is the heart of my work.

Here's what happened once people started trusting themselves.
"Shayna skillfully guided me to clarity for what next steps in my business development are actually in tune with my personal values, strengths, and circumstances. This revealed my assumptions that blocked me from completing my project. Their careful listening, intentional questions, and gentle redirections let me see clearly the next steps that are actually personally relevant to me. I feel so grateful and relieved to realize the answers were inside me - I just needed skilled help to connect the dots."
"I was hesitant at first because I worried I'd be told what to do or pushed into a decision or understanding that wasn't really mine. Instead, the sessions gave me the space to find my own answers. One of the biggest shifts was gaining clarity about different aspects of myself, which helped me think through a lot of major things. What I appreciated most about Shayna's coaching style was that they never told me what to do. They asked guiding questions that helped me uncover and gain clarity, and to be able to come to my own conclusions."

At KA Coaching, I know you want to be someone who trusts their own voice. To get there, you need to move forward on what's in front of you (a decision about work, relationships, or family, a project that won't move, or what's next) from what you actually want. The problem is that every option still gets checked against rules and voices that aren't yours, from family, culture, religion, or who you used to be. That leaves you stuck, second-guessing yourself, and handing the final call to someone else.
I believe the life you build should sound like your own voice, not someone else's rules. I've been there: I left the religion I grew up in and came out as queer, and it took me years to trust my own voice. Today I'm an ICF-trained life coach for adults who feel stuck and want to move forward from their own voice.
Here's how it works: book a free Discovery Call, choose one-on-one coaching or the Kol Atzmi Circle, then Hear it, Trust it, and Choose it: choose your own voice on what's in front of you. If you're not ready to talk yet, start with the free Life Alignment Assessment. Either way, you can stop second-guessing yourself and move forward on what you've been stuck on, from your own voice.
On the call, we'll talk about what's going on, what you want, and whether coaching is the right fit. If it isn't, I'll tell you.
