Future You is a Problem Solver Too: Coac...

Krista Kathleen
About this episode

In this deeply inspiring alumni episode, Krista reconnects with Samantha Buck—an original graduate of the Born to Coach Training Academy, ICF-certified coach, and soon-to-be therapist—about the evolution of her coaching path.

Samantha shares her powerful story of pivoting from entrepreneur life to a fulfilling role as a pediatric behavioral health coach and how she’s now stepping into her next chapter: pursuing her master’s in clinical mental health counseling.

They explore:

  • How intuition guides our most aligned decisions (even when they scare the crap out of us)

  • The difference between fear vs. inner knowing

  • Why success doesn’t always mean running your own business

  • Coaching vs. therapy—and how Sam plans to blend both

  • The victim mindset that holds so many clients (and coaches) back

  • A gentle but powerful reminder that “Future You is a problem solver too.”

If you’ve been feeling stuck, uncertain, or wondering whether there’s “another way” to be a coach—you don’t want to miss this one.
