THE CONFIDENT LEADER EXPERIENCE

1:1 Executive & Leadership Coaching With Kristi Baxter

Lead Powerfully. Without the Pressure.

Private coaching for high-achieving women ready to quiet the noise, trust themselves, and lead with grounded confidence.

You've checked every box — but the self-doubt never got the memo.

You’ve built success by every external metric… but inside, something still feels off.

​

You’re carrying the weight of:

  • Overthinking

  • Protective patterns

  • FOPO (fear of other people’s opinions)

  • Pressure to perform

  • A loud-as-hell inner critic

 

You know you’re capable.
You know you’re smart.
You know you belong in the rooms you’re in.

 

So why doesn’t it feel that way?

The mental load doesn’t lighten because you're successful.
It actually gets louder.

If you’re anything like the women I coach, your mind never.shuts.off.

​

You rehearse conversations before you have them.
You scan every room to figure out who you “should” be.
You lead teams, deliver results, and keep it together — yet privately, you still question yourself.

​

And the more you achieve, the more glaring the disconnect becomes.

​

You’re shape-shifting to stay accepted.
You shrink even when you know you belong.
You’re performing leadership instead of experiencing it.

​

And honestly? You’re tired.

​

If any of this feels familiar, book your initial consultation today — we can explore what you need next.

You’re not stuck because you’re not confident.

You’re stuck because you’ve outgrown the identity that built your success.

Confidence isn’t something you magically “feel” one day.

It’s what happens when:

​

  • Your inner world matches your outer success

  • You trust your voice without rehearsing

  • You stop caring about every damn thing people might think

  • You feel safe being fully, unapologetically you

 

What you want isn’t complicated — even if it feels out of reach.

 

  • You want to trust yourself deeply, no longer second-guessing your voice.

  • You want to lead without over-explaining, apologizing, or shrinking.

  • You want to feel at home in your brilliance — without needing external approval.

  • You want to reclaim the part of yourself that’s been muted by roles, expectations, and “shoulds.”

  • You want to stop performing and finally “not give a shit” what others think.

Let’s get real about why this is happening.

High-achieving women are swimming in decades of conditioning:

​

Be strong, but not aggressive.
Be direct, but not overpowering.
Be ambitious, but not intimidating.
Be confident, but don’t be “too much.”
Work hard, but make it look effortless.

​

It’s an impossible standard.

​

You don’t have a confidence problem — you have a conditioning problem.

​

This is the work I do at the deepest level.

​

If you’re unsure whether this is the right space for you, reach out with any questions — I’m here to help.

The Confident Leader Experience: Private 1:1 Coaching

I work with high-achieving women who have built success by every external metric — but inside, they’re still stuck in patterns of performing, pleasing, and perfecting.

The Experience

Through deep coaching that blends identity-level transformation with unapologetic leadership work, I help you:

​

  • Drop the internal noise

  • Rewire the patterns that drive your inner critic

  • Come back into alignment with who you are

  • Stop overthinking your brilliance and start owning it — publicly, fully, unapologetically
     

The result?

​

You lead with:

​

  • Unshakable presence

  • An undeniable voice

  • Unfakeable power

  • A bulletproof sense of inner calm

Meet Kristi Baxter, The Coach High-Achievers Call When They’re Done Performing

I’m Kristi. Years in high-pressure environments taught me how the inner critic really operates — the constant pressure to know more, do more, and already be further along. I didn’t learn that as a concept. I lived it.

That's why I’m the coach powerhouse women turn to when their success on the outside doesn’t match how they feel on the inside.

 

My clients are respected, accomplished, and often the go-to expert in the room. But behind the scenes, they’re still questioning themselves: “Why do I feel like I have to keep proving I belong here?”

 

My work helps them quiet the critic, own every damn bit of their brilliance, and lead with unshakable clarity and conviction—so they stop second-guessing and start showing up as the women they already are.

What this private leadership coaching helps you do

  • Tame the inner critic running your every move

  • Release guilt (for wanting more OR doing less)

  • Feel lighter and lead with calm authority

  • Trust your voice — in every room you’re in

  • Channel your drive into leadership that feels honest, powerful, and deeply your own

Why this approach works

I coach the whole woman — not just the leader.

“You can’t lead powerfully if you don’t own who you are.” - Kristi Baxter

​

I don’t teach leadership as a set of tactics.

 

I help high-performing women stop outsourcing their worth and start leading from the inside out. My coaching sits at the intersection of deep identity work, emotional precision, and unapologetic leadership.

 

I help you become the kind of leader whose presence is unshakable, whose voice is undeniable, and whose power — inside and out — is unfakeable.

I work at the identity level — the root, not the surface.

This isn't simple mindset hacks.
It’s real liberation.


Your inner critic is an overgrown vine that’s been wrapped around your true self for years. I help you cut through it — so you can breathe, move, and lead authentically again.

I speak fluent high-achiever.

Ambition, pressure, burnout, the need to prove, the need to belong — I get your wiring.


I don’t ask you to be “less.”


I help you channel your power in a way that feels aligned, embodied, and effortless.

I help you lead without the mask.

No more rehearsing.
No more second-guessing.
No more over-explaining.
No more shape-shifting.


This is next-level liberation for women who are used to white-knuckling their way to success.

Who This Coaching Is Truly For

You’re all-in.

You’re not looking to dabble. You’re willing to show up honestly, go deep, be challenged (with love), and take responsibility for your growth.

​

You want coaching that actually transforms you. Because at this level, coaching isn’t an obligation or requirement.

​

It’s an opportunity. It’s a space to expand. To laugh. To release. To rise.

You want a coaching relationship that evolves with you.

My clients typically stay 2+ years because the work deepens as they grow.

 

I become a trusted partner through their growth, seasons, leadership shifts, and evolution — not a quick fix.​

​If you're looking for someone who creates lifelong shifts, not 90-day sprints, then we would be a great fit.

 

Book your consultation today and let’s get started.

Tanya A C.avif

"What makes Kristi so extraordinary is her ability to bring out the best in everyone, from seasoned executives to those embarking on new career paths.

 

After 12 years working as a stay-at-home mom to two active boys, I needed a new mindset, a resume overhaul, and a confidence boost to re-enter the workforce. 

 

Kristi provided it all – with her unique combination of enthusiasm and empathy, she motivated me to push well beyond my modest goals, enhance my marketability, and build an inner confidence that will serve me well in my new career path. 

 

If you are seeking to transform your career or your outlook on life, I highly recommend partnering with Kristi as a coach."
