At KJM EXECUTIVE COACHING...

Working in a hybrid world with companies downsizing or offering non-traditional HR services, it is challenging to find a trusted partner that is invested in your workplace well-being. I work 1:1 with individuals guiding you toward a path that finds you joy and peace in your workplace. Together, we will define what that means for you.

Your workplace is part of your holistic wellness. Using my 8 Hidden Hats framework, I work with VP's and companies who are looking to decode the feelings of overwhelm and transform their leadership.

What is Coaching?

Business coaching is me as your mirror. My goal is to enhance your awareness of the decisions you are making and hold you accountable. It is a judgement free zone helping you find your answers. Our time together is goal focused, structured and formal. This is your journey. Together, we will find peace, joy and wellness in your workplace.

    What If Sunday Night Felt Good?

    The Hidden Hats Leaders Inherit the Day They’re Promoted to Leading Many

    When leaders step into their first director, VP, or C‑suite role, they’re handed responsibility, authority, and expectations — but no one warns them about the hidden hats they’ll end up wearing. The Mirror. The Fire Chief. The Coach. These roles shape every conversation, every decision, and every sleepless night.

    What If Sunday Night Felt Good? is a playbook for leaders who’ve gone from managing a few to leading many and suddenly find themselves stretched thin, firefighting constantly, and quietly wondering if they’re the only ones who feel this way. They’re not.

    Drawing on three decades of executive leadership and coaching, Katie Murphy reveals the eight hidden hats leaders inherit — and how to navigate them with clarity instead of exhaustion. Through real stories, myth‑busting insights, and reflection questions you can apply immediately, this book gives you language for what you’ve been carrying and a practical path toward leading with intention, steadiness, and relief.

    If you’ve ever felt the weight of leadership in your bones, this book will help you understand why — and what to do next.
