Kalina Cardoso Business Coaching - San Diego, California

Rachel R.

Kalina is everything you need in a coach. I worked with her in the summer for 2023 and months later I still feel the last motivation and good energy from her expertise and guidance. She provides a safe space for you to reflect and explore your ambitions, insecurities and issues/blockages you’re having in your personal or professional life. Kalina is able to meet you where you are at in your journey and support you to get where you want to go. She’s truly kindhearted and her attention to detail makes her work standout. The prices for her service is pretty good (standard maybe) for life/business coaches. If you’re in the market for a life coach… look no further than Kalina.

I have found Kalina on Yelp and loved the reviews and decided to contact her in Feb 2022.. She responded to my request quickly and we scheduled our first session. At first I thought it would be sufficient to have her as my coach for 3-4 month but this 3-4 months has become almost a year. I cannot be thankful to her. She is a great, very attentive, responsive, thoughtful, caring and genuine good person that is so hard to find nowadays. I enjoyed our weekly sessions very much. She helped me to acquire new habits, change the ones I did not like, supported me, inspired me and as we are coming towards the end of 2022, I can definitely say that this was the best decision for me to hire a coach and especially Kalina!

I do recommend Kalina to anyone who needs a good coach who puts her heart and soul into her work.

Thank you Kalina, you are the best!!!

I have never done life coaching before, and I had no idea what to expect. The short version: an incredibly useful investment that I will continue to participate in for years to come.
Kalina as a coach is incredibly compassionate, non-judgmental, and very, very funny. She is engaging to converse with and offers clear advice on how you can tackle any challenge.
What is most unique about working with Kalina is her uncanny ability to ask the questions that I myself never considered. There are many times that I tell her a long story about how I am doing, only for her to be able to cut through and get to the root of what I need with no effort. It transforms my experience into an adventure of self.
Another note is that Kalina is very flexible and molds her style into what fits you best. Sometimes, I need accountability, while other times, I need comfort and validation. She never makes me feel uncomfortable, embarrassed, or ashamed—and I tell her a multitude of personal flaws and mistakes that I make. This is such a rare feeling of comfort that makes her consulting easygoing and positive.
If you want something in your life done, go to Kalina. She offers guidance to help you understand yourself, your goals, and your feelings no matter what the topic is. She will help you remain focused, inspired, and motivated to promote success in your life. Sometimes, all you need is a really great coach.

I am so grateful to know and be in relationship with a soul like Kalina. I appreciate her intelligence, listening ability, and genuinely kind nature (a trait not to be underestimated). It is helpful to speak with someone well-versed in healing arts and self-development work, Kalina is clearly dedicated to her own intellectual, spiritual, and emotional growth. Kalina embodies love and acceptance and leads me into my own awareness and peacefulness with thought provoking questions and powerful insight. Sometimes it's just one line that will change my perception and undo years of limited thinking and false beliefs. I confidently and completely recommend her services.

Thank you for everything Kalina!

Kalina is the BEST. Working with Kalina has enhanced my life both personally and professionally. As a working mom, I had a hard time balancing it all and feeling like it was ok to take time for myself. Through our conversations, I've learned to set better boundaries and communicate in a clear and focused way. Kalina has helped to identify limiting habits, and suggested ways to consciously change-- allowing me to be more successful in both my work and family life. I always feel inspired and motivated after our meetings. She is authentically kind and empowering, while still holding you accountable. I've been working with Kalina a little more than a year and I'm the happiest I've ever been

Before I started working with Kalina, I was hesitant to work with a business coach for a few reasons. I didn't really even know what a business coach really does. After meeting Kalina and seeing how sharp she is, I decided to give it a go. Once, I started working with Kalina, I realized how absolutely invaluable her service is. The most valuable part of working with Kalina has been the clarity. Kalina is the master of socractic inquiry. She helps you discover your core true values and helps you construct actionable steps around targeted goals. I started with a very strong vision, but was often confused about how to turn my vision into reality. Literally at every step in my journey, Kalina has helped me clarify what is important to me and what I need to do at the next step. I highly recommend Kalina's services to those starting a business/entrepreneurial venture or to those wanting to expand and grow their business!

Kalina has been my coach for more than a year now and I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for support in exploring that next step in their life or achieving new goals big or small.

When I started getting coached by Kalina, I was completely overwhelmed and burned out in my profession and was reaching a breaking point. I felt really stuck and needed an outside perspective and someone to listen and help me strategize so I could move forward. Kalina is positive, kind, genuine, non-judgmental, and a good listener. She held belief in me even when I didn't have it. She is reliable and does what she says she will.

Kalina has been able to help me in different areas of my life, including my business and overall wellness, including fitness and nutrition. Don't hesitate to reach out to her to help you too!

Ive been very pleased with my progress on my startup since I hired Kalina to be my business coach. I liked that she was more casual and personable, yet super professional. I was looking for some guidance with starting my own business and just getting an outside perspective on my career transition. I was pleasantly surprised that Kalina's coaching style is really thorough. She asked me a lot of questions that I've never considered which helped me reach my goals so much faster and with less headaches. I like that I leave each session feeling more optimistic and clear about what I needed to do next. She just gets me. Our sessions really keep me on track and accountable. I'm going to continue working with her on some other general goals as I feel I'm definitely being challenged and growing through our work together.
