My mission is to help insurance teams thrive in an ever-evolving industry by supporting them in navigating industry challenges with confidence and clarity.

~ Katherine Hood

What sets me apart from other coaches

With expertise in understanding the complex psychological obstacles that hinder, stop and block employees from achieving their maximum capabilities at work, I have the skills to explore the coach individuals and teams to create belief, confidence and motivation needed to unlock their full potential and excel in their roles.

 

With my guidance, individuals and teams can cultivate a positive mindset, enhance their performance, and ultimately thrive in their professional endeavors.

I am skilled at not only recognizing these obstacles but also at offering practical solutions to assist individuals in overcoming them.

10 major ways I am different than the "other guys."

 

Advantage: While many coaches focus solely on skill development that's specific to their work, I go deeper by addressing both the professional and personal mental barriers employees/agents face. This holistic focus on mindset, emotional well-being, and practical skills leads to more profound, lasting improvements.

Delivery: I understand the concept of "the way we do one thing is the way we do everything", highlighting the significance of personal and professional growth to maintain and develop well-rounded lives for all team members. Through coaching, individuals can address current obstacles and prevent future challenges in different areas of their lives, ultimately leading to overall satisfaction in and out of the workplace.

Advantage: The insurance industry is fast-paced and unpredictable. How do I know? Decades of experience in the insurance industry, starting at age 17 working at Geico and owning my own agency. My strong understanding of resilience training equips teams to handle constant change, pressure, and client demands with greater ease, drawing from both my personal experience and coaching credentials. If I knew what I know today back when I owned an agency I would have been even more successful (lethal).

Delivery: My tailored approach to building resilience, including practical tools and techniques that help team members stay grounded, adaptable, and motivated even in high-stress environments.

Advantage: Many coaches overlook the profound effects that emotional intelligence can have not only on the overall success of the organization, but also on the quality of client relationships, team dynamics, and the effectiveness of leadership within the company. It is essential for agencies to recognize the importance of emotional intelligence and its ability to enhance various aspects of their business. With my support and a deeper understanding of emotional intelligence and its incorporation into a team, the culture will improve in more meaningful and impactful interactions with their clients, foster stronger team communication, and ultimately lead with greater effectiveness and empathy.

Delivery: I offer coaching that enhances self-awareness, empathy, and emotional regulation, which are key components of EI. Offering a myriad of ways to teach, train, and educate in improving Emotional Intelligence as a way to boost client satisfaction, reduce internal conflicts, and foster a more cohesive team environment.

Advantage: I have a deep understanding of the specific pain points faced by insurance agencies (e.g., regulatory compliance, client retention, and complex sales processes) this sets me apart from more generalized coaches and consultants.

Delivery: I have the ability to tailor coaching and consulting services specifically for where the agency is in its growth cycle, offering insights and strategies that are immediately applicable and relevant to industry-specific challenges.

Advantage: I offer a structured, outcome-oriented approach that goes beyond mindset work to include strategic planning and goal setting. This combination ensures that your team will experience tangible results in productivity, profitability, and client service.

Delivery: My focus is on achieving measurable results and consistently monitoring progress through accountability check-ins (if they are part of the agreement). Coaching is based on gaining a comprehensive understanding of the current status of each individual or team and developing specific, achievable action steps to move them forward powerfully.

Advantage: Rather than using a one-size-fits-all approach, I take the time to understand the unique culture, needs, and dynamics of each individual in the agency. I customize coaching plans help create sustainable changes that align with the agency’s vision and goals. No two coaching relationship is the same.

Delivery: A major commitment to developing tailored programs and solutions that fit the specific context of each individual on the team and the team as a whole, ensuring a long-lasting impact and a high return on investment.

Advantage:

I recognize that culture is crucial for a successful team. Through years of experience and learning from mistakes, I can distinguish between toxic work environments and healthy ones. By focusing on changing attitudes and improving communication abilities, I contribute to creating a positive, encouraging, and cooperative workplace atmosphere.

Delivery: I have the ability and a deep passion for increasing morale for individuals and teams, increasing engagement, and reducing turnover by creating a work environment where employees feel valued and motivated to perform at their best.

AdvantageSome agents who aim to become leaders, and may struggle with balancing and handling the various roles they must fulfill, or they may lack the necessary skills or confidence to recruit and cultivate an ideal team. In my coaching approach, I prioritize the development of the leaders (agent/managers) by providing them with the necessary resources to effectively manage teams. The team leaders play a crucial role in the overall well-being and success of the agency. Their leadership, guidance, and support are essential in ensuring that the team functions effectively and efficiently. Without strong and capable team leaders, the agency's health and performance would undoubtedly suffer.

Delivery:I have a strong ability to mentor and coach the upcoming leaders of the agency, helping them cultivate strong leadership skills that will drive the agency's success and accomplishments. I make sure they set the standard for how tasks should be completed and at what level of excellence.

Advantage: The insurance industry is constantly evolving, with changes in technology, regulations, and client expectations. I don’t just help agencies react to change; you prepare them to anticipate and embrace it, minimizing disruption.

Delivery: I have a proactive mindset in assisting team members to become more adaptable and flexible towards changes, thereby ensuring that teams develop the adaptability and mindset required to succeed in a constantly evolving environment.

Advantage: My coaching efforts extend beyond enhancing internal processes; they also highlight the significance of providing exceptional client service. By prioritizing client empathy, effective communication, and problem-solving abilities, I assist agencies in enhancing client relationships and increasing retention.

Delivery: As a coach with a wealth of experience, knowledge, and skills, I have a deep understanding of the direct connection between employee well-being and client satisfaction. I am able to offer strategies that not only enhance both of these areas simultaneously, but also create a balance that drives overall success and growth within an agency. By focusing on the well-being of employees, we can ultimately create a positive work environment that leads to improved client satisfaction, increased productivity and growth. Let me help you unlock the full potential of your team and achieve greater success in your business.

Advantage: An in-house life coach can help elevate team morale by providing personalized coaching and support. Employees often feel more valued and motivated when they have access to a resource dedicated to their personal and professional well-being.

Delivery: Through consistent regular coaching, I can offer tools, strategies, and coping skills to manage stress, maintain work-life balance, and cultivate a healthy mindset among the team, leading to higher overall well-being and job satisfaction. Coaching helps the staff feel more engaged and connected to the agency's goals. Dedicated time to hone skills and foster a greater sense of purpose and motivation for the entire organization or one-on-one.

Once in a contract/agreement I would work together with individuals and teams to identify personal and professional goals, overcome mental barriers, and develop skills that lead to higher performance.

For insurance agents, this could mean improved sales techniques, better client relationship management, and enhanced time management. By focusing on mindset, motivation, and specific skills, a life coach helps employees reach their full potential, resulting in increased productivity and job satisfaction.

By investing in the development and well-being of the staff and employees, the agency can create a strong and cohesive team that is dedicated to achieving its mission and making a positive impact in the community.

High turnover is a common issue in the insurance industry. An active life coach with the agency can address the underlying reasons employees leave, such as stress, lack of engagement, and limited growth opportunities. By providing personalized support, helping with career development, and enhancing job satisfaction, a life coach can be a great addition to create a more positive work environment. When employees feel valued and supported, they are more likely to stay, reducing turnover and increasing team stability.

Absolutely. The insurance industry is fast-paced and constantly evolving, which can lead to high levels of stress and uncertainty. A life coach teaches resilience-building techniques, such as stress management, mindfulness, and emotional regulation. By equipping employees with these tools, the coach helps them handle setbacks and adapt to change more effectively, maintaining productivity and a positive attitude even in challenging times.

Hiring me as your team building coach can provide numerous benefits for insurance teams looking to grow and improve in key areas. I specialize in enhancing communication skills to foster better client interactions and internal collaboration within the team. Additionally, I offer leadership development programs tailored for agents, emerging managers, and potential future leaders within the organization.

One of the key focuses of my coaching is on emotional intelligence, where I help individuals enhance empathy and self-awareness to better understand and connect with others. I also provide training on time management and prioritization, which leads to increased efficiency and reduced burnout among team members.

Furthermore, I work on boosting sales confidence among agents to help them overcome the fear of rejection and improve conversion rates. By addressing these growth areas and others, I can support both individual development and the overall success of the agency. Investing in team building coaching can lead to a more cohesive and high-performing insurance team.

Me being your dedicated coach I will help your team Improve/build trust, enhance active listening skills, and understand different communication styles. Through workshops and individual sessions, coaching provides tools and strategies to resolve conflicts, clarify expectations, and foster a culture of open dialogue. Improved communication reduces misunderstandings and creates a stronger, more cohesive team that can work together effectively to meet client needs.

The Return on Investment (ROI) of life coaching can be significant. Agencies that invest in coaching often see improvements in:

  • Employee performance: Increased productivity and efficiency translate directly into higher revenue.

  • Client satisfaction: Enhanced communication and service skills lead to better client relationships and retention.

  • Reduced turnover: Lower hiring and training costs due to improved employee retention.

  • Team morale and engagement: A positive workplace culture boosts motivation and reduces absenteeism. Studies suggest that companies experience an average ROI of $7.90 for every dollar spent on coaching, making it a valuable investment for long-term growth and success.

Employee performance is a critical aspect of any organization, as it directly impacts productivity and efficiency. By investing in coaching and development programs, companies can see a significant increase in revenue. Additionally, improving communication and service skills can lead to better client relationships and higher client retention rates, ultimately contributing to the overall success of the business.

Reducing turnover is another key benefit of investing in coaching. When employees feel supported and engaged, they are more likely to stay with the company, reducing the costs associated with hiring and training new staff. This not only saves money but also ensures that the organization retains valuable knowledge and experience. Also a work culture that's know to be healthy and stable will attract future team member of the same energy and work ethic.

Building a positive workplace culture through coaching can boost team morale and engagement. A motivated workforce is more likely to be productive and committed to the success of the company. Studies have shown that companies can experience a return on investment of $7.90 for every dollar spent on coaching, highlighting the value of this investment for long-term growth and success.

Coaching is a valuable tool for organizations looking to improve performance, client satisfaction, employee retention, and team morale. By investing in coaching programs, companies can see a significant return on investment and create a positive and productive work environment for their employees.

Unlike traditional training programs that focus on teaching specific skills or knowledge, life coaching is a personalized, holistic approach that addresses both personal and professional growth. I work one-on-one and in groups (depends on your budget, and the customizations we agree to) to explore mindset, identify goals, and develop customized strategies for overcoming obstacles. Coaching is more adaptive and ongoing, offering continuous support and accountability, which leads to deeper, more sustainable change.

A typical coaching session is tailored to the needs of the individual or team. It might involve goal-setting, discussing current challenges, exploring solutions, and creating action plans. Sessions can be held weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly, depending on your agency’s needs. Many agencies choose a combination of one-on-one coaching for personal development and group sessions for team-building and communication training.

The timeline for results can vary depending on the goals and challenges of your team. Some improvements, like better communication and stress management, can be seen within the first few sessions. More significant changes, such as increased resilience, enhanced performance, and improved retention, often develop over a period of three to six months. Consistency and commitment from both the coach and ALL the participants are key factors in achieving lasting results.

The first step is to fill out an application, which will help both you and me determine if coaching is a good fit for you, now or in the future. The application provides space for you to share what you envision, the challenges you are currently facing, and any customizations that interest you and your team.

Next, you'd schedule a consultation to discuss your agency's specific needs, goals, and challenges. This is times set aside to have a dialog and answer your burning questions. During this call, I will assess your team's dynamics, identify potential areas of focus, and develop a tailored coaching plan. This plan may include individual sessions, group workshops, and ongoing support. The level of involvement I have will depend on your budget, and the cost will be determined based on the energy and effort required.

The objective is to create a customized approach that aligns with your agency's vision and objectives. It's my goal to overdeliver on what's expected.

There is definitely a great deal of potential and opportunity when it comes to what I like to refer to as "intensives" within a tailored plan. These intensives could involve dedicating a specific amount of time, whether it be days or weeks, to immerse yourself in your agency and have face-to-face interactions with the agent, manager, and other staff members. This hands-on approach allows for a deeper level of understanding and collaboration, ultimately leading to more effective and efficient outcomes. By investing in these intensives, you are investing in the growth and success of your agency.

Life coaching is a powerful process that supports individuals in transforming their mindset, beliefs, and actions, allowing them to experience life in a profoundly different way and reach their goals. Here's a comprehensive breakdown of how life coaching combined with thought work, belief work, and goal achievement is so powerful:

1. Thought Work: Shifting Mindsets and Perspectives

  • Understanding the Power of Thoughts: Life coaching emphasizes that your thoughts significantly impact your feelings, actions, and outcomes. Thought work involves examining your habitual thought patterns, identifying limiting or negative beliefs, and understanding how these thoughts shape your reality.

  • Reframing and Challenging Negative Thoughts: As your life coach, I help you become aware of self-limiting thoughts and teach you techniques to reframe or challenge them. This shift in perspective allows you to replace unproductive thinking with empowering, positive, and constructive thoughts.

  • Cultivating a Growth Mindset: I guide clients toward developing a growth mindset, where challenges are seen as opportunities to learn and grow, rather than as obstacles. This change in mindset encourages resilience, adaptability, and a willingness to embrace new opportunities.

2. Belief Work: Transforming Core Beliefs and Values

  • Identifying Limiting Beliefs: Many people are held back by deep-seated beliefs that they may not even be fully aware of, such as "I'm not good enough" or "Success is only for others." As your life coach I work with you closely to uncover these (or other) limiting beliefs that block progress.

  • Replacing Limiting Beliefs with Empowering Ones: Once we identify your limiting beliefs, I help you shift these limiting beliefs to empowering ones. For example, "I’m not good enough" can be transformed into "I am capable of achieving my goals." This shift can lead to profound changes in behavior, motivation, and self-confidence. Now, this isn't chanting or affirmations; these may work for a day or two. I support you in lasting change by rewiring your old programming or thoughts to new ones and training your brain to work for you rather than against you. So, it's much deeper than just reframing; that's why it takes time, commitment, and weekly sessions to check in and see what's working, what's not working, and make adjustments.

  • Aligning Beliefs with Goals: I also help my clients ensure that their core values and beliefs align with their desired goals. If there's a misalignment (e.g., someone wants to achieve financial success but believes that money is inherently "bad"), as your coach, I will support you in reconciling these differences, creating harmony between beliefs and aspirations.

3. Goal Setting and Achievement: Moving from Vision to Reality

  • Clarifying Goals: As your life coach, I am committed to guiding and empowering you to delve deep into your desires and aspirations, to truly understand what it is that you want to achieve in life. I assist you in painting a vivid and detailed picture of your dreams, helping you to visualize what success means to you and what it looks like in your mind. Together, we work towards turning these visions into reality, taking actionable steps and creating a roadmap towards your goals. My role is to provide support, encouragement, and accountability as you embark on this transformative journey towards self-discovery and personal growth. This often involves moving from vague desires ("I want to be successful") to specific, measurable, attainable, relevant, and time-bound (SMART) goals ("I want to increase my annual income by 20% within the next 12 months").

  • Creating Actionable Plans: Coaching involves breaking down larger goals into manageable steps. I work closely alongside my clients to create strategic plans, outline specific actions, and set timelines to make progress toward their goals realistic and achievable. This is where being a VIP comes into play; having a dedicated time each week to check in ensures you're staying on track, and if not, time is dedicated to making adjustments.

  • Accountability and Motivation:I hold my VIP clients accountable, providing encouragement and support throughout the journey. Regular weekly check-ins ensure that individuals stay on track, adjust their plans as needed, and remain motivated to pursue their goals, even when facing challenges.

4. Experiencing Life Differently: Living with Intention and Purpose

  • Cultivating Self-Awareness: Life Coaching increases your self-awareness, allowing you to recognize patterns in your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. This awareness is the first step toward making intentional changes and taking control of your life.

  • Living Authentically: I encourage my clients to live authentically, embracing who you truly are rather than conforming to societal expectations or past conditioning. This leads to more genuine, purposeful, fulfilling experiences and relationships.

  • Increasing Confidence and Empowerment: As individuals see their mindset shift and limiting beliefs dissolve, they often experience increased confidence and a greater sense of empowerment. This newfound confidence allows them to take bolder actions and pursue opportunities they may have previously avoided.

  • Developing Emotional Intelligence: Life coaching often involves building emotional intelligence, which includes understanding and managing emotions, developing empathy, learning healthy communication skills, and improving interpersonal skills. These changes enhance relationships and communication, contributing to a richer life experience.

5. Smashing Goals: Turning Ambition into Achievement

  • Overcoming Obstacles and Resistance: I work with my clients to overcome obstacles and internal resistance that may arise during the pursuit of their goals. This involves identifying triggers, creating strategies to manage setbacks, and maintaining a forward-focused mindset.

  • Celebrating Milestones and Successes: I encourage and emphasize celebrating progress, no matter how small. This positive reinforcement boosts morale, keeps motivation high, and reinforces the belief that achieving goals is possible.

  • Maintaining Momentum for Long-Term Success:As your life coach, I support my clients in not only reaching their immediate goals but also in maintaining the habits, mindset, and belief systems that ensure long-term success. This focus on sustainability ensures that the transformation is not just a short-term change but a lasting lifestyle shift.

Summary: Why Life Coaching Works

Life coaching is about guiding individuals from where they are to where they want to be by shifting how they think, what they believe, and how they act. It’s a supportive, collaborative process that:

  • Empowers individuals to overcome mental blocks.

  • Clarifies goals and provides a step-by-step path to achieve them.

  • Cultivates a mindset that sees challenges as opportunities.

  • Builds resilience and the ability to manage setbacks effectively.

  • Creates a deeper connection with oneself and one's purpose, leading to a more fulfilling and intentional life.

By engaging in thought work and belief work, individuals experience life in a whole new way, and with the ongoing support of a life coach, they can smash their goals and create the life they’ve always desired.

Coaching is a transformative process that empowers you to unlock your full potential and achieve your goals.

It involves a dynamic partnership between me your coach and you, where I provide support, guidance, and accountability to help you navigate through challenges and obstacles. By tapping into your existing resources and strengths, you can discover new ways to overcome limitations and reach new heights of success.

Through the coaching process, you are able to gain clarity on your values, priorities, and aspirations, and develop a strategic plan to turn your dreams into reality.

I help you to set specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-bound goals, and provide you with the tools and techniques needed to stay on track and make progress towards your objectives.

By focusing on both the present moment and the future possibilities, coaching enables you to create a roadmap for personal and professional fulfillment.

In today's fast-paced and demanding world, coaching serves as a valuable resource for individuals seeking to navigate the complexities of work, family, and personal life. (balancing all the responsibilities and waking up each day excited to experience what the day has ahead of you)

By fostering a growth mindset and promoting resilience, coaching equips you with the skills and mindset needed to thrive in the face of challenges and setbacks.

Through ongoing support and encouragement, I help you to cultivate a positive attitude, build self-confidence, and develop effective strategies for managing stress and uncertainty.

Ultimately, coaching is not just about achieving specific goals or overcoming obstacles; it is about empowering you to live a life of purpose, passion, and fulfillment.(in other words I aim to help you develop strong skills vs becoming dependent on me(doesn't serve you), in other words I teach you how to fish rather than give you a fish)

By experiencing the power of coaching, you can unlock your true potential, unleash your creativity, and create the life you truly desire.

Coaching is a powerful tool for personal growth and transformation, and it has the potential to bring about profound and lasting change in the lives of those who embrace it.

Coaching is a distinct practice that stands apart from counseling, mentoring, and therapy. While these other modalities delve into the past, addressing old wounds and unpacking previous experiences, coaching takes a different approach. Instead of analyzing what has already occurred, coaching concentrates on the present and the future, aiming to empower individuals who are eager to make significant strides in their lives.

When many people think of a "coach," they may envision someone who resembles a nagging parent or a strict physical education teacher from their past. However, a life coach is not synonymous with these stereotypes. A life coach is a skilled professional who assists individuals in setting and accomplishing personal and professional goals, providing them with the necessary support and guidance. Serving as a collaborative partner, a life coach helps individuals tap into their full potential and lead their lives to the fullest.

One of the key aspects of coaching is its focus on enhancing a person's mental, emotional, and physical capabilities. By working with a coach, individuals can unlock hidden potential and optimize their overall well-being. Coaching is a powerful tool for personal growth and development, offering a unique approach to achieving success and fulfillment in various aspects of life.

Answer: Yes, coaching sessions are typically confidential. As a reputable life coach I will honor your privacy and keep all discussions private unless there's a legal obligation to disclose certain information. My agreement with all my clients is sessions are confidential unless you're intending to harm yourself or someone else.

In addition to the confidentiality clause mentioned, there may be another scenario where confidentiality would be treated differently. This could occur if the agreement specifies that I am required to provide regular updates to your employer, in which case this obligation would also be clearly outlined in our contract. This additional provision would further ensure that all parties involved understand and agree to the terms regarding the handling of confidential information.

(VIP clients)If you have requested for sessions to be recorded, it is important that you take responsibility for keeping these recordings in a secure and confidential location. It should be noted that I do not record or keep notes or records as a precaution to prevent any potential legal subpoenas. Your privacy and confidentiality are of utmost importance to me, and I strive to ensure that your information is protected at all times.

AMANDA V.

I took a risk and found Katherine online. It was late at night and there were some big worries I had that were bothering me.

One thing that impressed me about Katherine right away was that she seemed to really want to coach and it wasn't about the money for her. I could tell instantly that she has a "servant-heart." Katherine is a healer. She is an amazing listener and has the skill to separate the "issue" from the person. Meaning, no matter what I bring up, there is zero judgement and then excellent tools to recreate my thoughts and my life.

I love her!"
