DM for more info. When I was a kid I was teased for being different which taught me to hide the real me behind a mask. I started to see a shift.

We help women and non-binary folks with ADHD carve out me-time, set boundaries, and conquer all the things that make it difficult to adult, through private & group coaching. My nine-year-old self learned that if I didn't ask questions, I didn't make waves, and I didn't act “stupid” then my friends wouldn't ridicule or make fun of me and that felt safer. As an adult I felt lost and frustrated with my life, which led me to explore every possible path for personal growth that I could get my hands on. I went through so many books and programs that I couldn't finish them all. It was like going from shiny thing to shiny thing and bleeding money in the process. Some things did stick though and overtime I started to find the real me. As I started to embrace my imperfections and show bits of my true crazy self to the world. That all started when I became a yoga teacher in 2014. I found people complimenting my crazy yoga pants and reaffirming the things that make me uniquely me. Their joy helped me to feel more joyful. It wasn't until the pandemic of 2020 that I finally figured out what I'm truly good at: coaching. And not just any coaching, Yoga & Life Coaching, that brings together the philosophy of yoga into each coaching session. I discovered that I feel more grounded and able to coach and lead when I remember to breathe. Through Yoga & Life Coaching I got clear on my four core values and what matters to me most. That helped me clarify my purpose: Coaching women who feel the necessity to blend in so they can shed their mask and become their true self. Do you feel unsure of who you are? Every time you blend in, ignore your needs, and ignore your wants
you’re telling yourself that you don’t really matter

And overtime the real you has hidden behind your mask. Isn’t it time to stop blending? Take off that mask and reconnect with your true self. Pick a time to put you first and schedule your consultation to learn if working with me might be a good fit for you.

The secret I almost didn’t share with you

Astrologically speaking, sh*t’s about to get crazy. 😳

Like, don’t-schedule-anything-extra-between-December-8th-and-14th levels of crazy.

How do I know this? I follow CHANI (the astrology app I swear by).

And when I realized what’s coming on December 8th, my first thought was:

“Oh my god, what am I doing to PREPARE myself?”

Then I looked at my calendar and literally laughed out loud. 😂

Because I’m co-leading a mini retreat on December 7th—the day BEFORE this astrological madness hits.

A retreat that’s ALL ABOUT resetting your nervous system, calming the F down, and giving yourself the emotional and energetic armor to make it through the holiday season.

We didn’t plan it this way. But the universe did. 🙏

So if you’re like me and kind of freaking out—wondering “what can I do?”—come to our mini retreat.

It’s the reset and pause that you need to prepare.

P.S. If the voice is popping up saying that this and nice and all, but I’m not supposed to do stuff for myself, I need to take care of everyone else. Then I’ve got just one question for you, how are you going to take care of everyone else when you’re beyond burnt out and screaming expletives at your phone before you even know who texted you?

P.P.S. Sending you lots of love 💕💕

You’re a badass at holding healthy boundaries 🏆

It’s true!

You might not realize it because all these boundaries feel like, “duh, of course!” situations.

But the more you’re aware of these “easier” boundaries the easier it becomes to set the harder ones too.

Because once your brain is on board and believes that you CAN set healthy boundaries, then the easy/hard definition becomes irrelevant.

So let’s highlight for our brains 🧠 all the places we already have healthy boundaries:

☎️ Keeping your phone on silent.

This healthy boundary that helps to regulate your nervous system- no beeps or noises startling you or interrupting that important meeting.

🚙 Wearing your seatbelt every time you get in a car.

This healthy boundary tells you that you care about your health and safety.

🐻 Defending your kid when they’re bullied at school.

Your protective mama bear instincts are a boundary too, no one gets to mess with your cubs (except you, like when you start calling all new foods “pizza” to try to get your 3 year old to eat more things 😂😂)

What “easy” boundaries are you holding?

Share in the comments 👇🏻
so we can remind and encourage each other on how many we’ve already mastered 💕

Why I’m voting YES on prop 50

First of all this is TEMPORARY…

that means that the governing body responsible for maintaining equitable congressional lines still has their authority and the lines will revert back in 5 years.

So then, why change them now?? 🤷🏻‍♀️

➡️ Because our literal democracy is at stake.

Texas skipped the voting process, ignored the voices of the people, and favored the Republicans’ authoritarian takeover by stealing 5 legislative seats from Congress. 😱

California is big enough to combat that and prop 50 does just that!

When you vote yes on prop 50, it temporarily redraws congressional lines to add 5 Democratic seats to congress. 🤩

➡️ That means we can combat the terrifying mess that our country is in by adding 5 seats for 5 years to counter Texas.

Join me in voting yes on Prop 50 and save our democracy. ❤️

Here’s why your traditional planner is failing you:

I’ve spent YEARS figuring out why traditional productivity planners fail so spectacularly for real humans living real lives.

And I’ve discovered something that changes everything:

➡️ When you stop fighting your natural energy patterns and start designing systems around them, everything gets easier.

The decision-making. 🏆
The follow-through. ✅
The guilt when you can’t maintain robot-level consistency. 😬

🤖You’re not a robot, you’re human.

That’s exactly why I created the Less = More Planner…

… to give you a system that’s flexible, works with your changes in energy, reminds you to eat, AND helps you work through your tougher projects so you can feel successful even on your “slowest” days.

Get the Less = More Planner and be an awesomely chaotic human that gets sh*t done!

Planners should help you get stuff done, not make you feel guilty. So I fixed that.

Which is why I created a planner specifically designed to solve the problem of prioritization & consistency.

Here’s why I made it:

I struggled with staying consistent on getting things done, managing my to-do list, and taking breaks before my body forced me to.

(Anyone else so hyperfocused on a project for 4 hours and end up so hangry you can’t even boil an egg?)

I wanted something different. So I created it.

It’s called the Less = More Planner

Inside you’ll find:

🌊 Undated planning - Start any time, skip days guilt-free

🎮 Gamified to-dos - Finally, a list you’ll want to complete

📝 Brain dump pages - Get unstuck by getting it out

🔨 Project breakdowns - Big goals → tiny, doable steps

💕 Self-care built in - Not an afterthought, a priority

Ready for a fun & guilt-free way to tackle your day?

What actually stops you from forming a new habit? 🤔 (It’s not what you think)

It’s not loss of momentum. 🛑

It’s not because you got distracted. 🙃

And it’s definitely not because you’re crap at follow-through (that’s just a limiting belief). 😜

The real reason you’re not getting things done? 👇🏻

There’s a feeling or an emotion that’s getting in the way. 🤯

Let me give you a quick example:

When you’re avoiding “the money talk” with your partner it’s because a fear is stopping you. 😱

You might fear that you’ve done something wrong or that your partner won’t understand unless you can prove that you’ve done your research (and know what you’re talking about).

It might be imposter syndrome, fear of failure, or something else entirely.

The best way to process those feelings? ��You need space to untangle the web of your emotions—because you’re not broken, you’re just stuck. 🙅🏻‍♀️

That’s exactly why I created the Less = More Planner—to give you that processing space built right into your daily planning system. 🏆

Pre-order starts TODAY and there’s an early bird discount until 10/28. 🤑

This isn’t just another planner.

It’s a system designed for real humans with real feelings who need flexibility, not rigidity. 💜

Our Story

Kerstin began her yoga journey almost by accident back in 1999. Since then she’s grown and found that yoga has the power to calm her, to work out the kinks from her day, and eliminate unnecessary stress. In 2014 Kerstin took her yoga journey to the next level by becoming an E-RYT 200 hour certified power yoga teacher. But she hasn’t stopped there. Kerstin realized that yoga alone wouldn’t make her complete and she started delving into nutrition and other healthy habits. When she launched her own business Love and Live Yoga she wanted to help people through every aspect of their lives: improve movement and flexibility through yoga, reduce stress, and cultivate better eating habits to keep the yoga glow flowing all day.
