Success Without Sacrifice
Infusing Work with Meaning, Freedom, and Fulfillment
Career Transformation Coach Dr. Kira Swanson
WHAT IS A CAREER TRANSFORMATION COACH?
I help successful business leaders and solopreneurs who've achieved everything they thought they wanted, yet feel an unmistakable emptiness—that nagging sense that "there must be more than this."
When you're torn between chasing deeper meaning and maintaining financial success, believing you must sacrifice one for the other, I help you break free from this false dichotomy.
Through proven techniques and personalized guidance, I show you how to create a career that delivers both profound fulfillment and continued prosperity, revealing how purpose and profit can naturally align to create unprecedented success.
Here's what clients are saying...
Working with Kira has been a transformative experience for me. Before we started working together, I was struggling with evaluating my career and feeling undervalued in my current position.
Kira helped me understand my limiting beliefs, learn thought models, and reframe those beliefs, which led to changing some habits and developing a better outlook and perspective.
Kira's approach and insightfulness, openness, and kindness made the experience enjoyable and enlightening. I appreciated her extensive knowledge and expertise, and her wide variety of tools helped me understand myself better.
I highly recommend Kira to anyone seeking to learn more about themselves and find satisfaction in their lives, themselves, and their careers.
— Liz H.
I had a lot of fears about showing my whole self, even though I know I need and want to.
Kira helped me uncover the root of the issue and release it by reconnecting to my purpose.
She helped me to come up with ways to allow my light to shine. Kira is great at bringing your best self forward.
I realized that confidence is already within me, I just have to show up and shine bright!
— Jovanhanna T.
I felt comfortable with Kira straight away. I felt like I could open up to her and she wouldn’t judge me in any way. Being able to trust her right from the beginning helped me get the best out of my time
with her.
Her coaching was a blend of helping me tap into my own wisdom to see my way forward and using her own intuitive skills to show me where I could stop playing small.
Kira helped me see that the limits I was placing on myself were artificial. I felt more in control, much clearer in what I needed to do to move forward
— Laura L.
Kira’s recommendations and strategies made a significant impact in my business and personal life.
She is engaging, fun to work with and she has a wealth of knowledge and experience. I enjoyed our conversations because she speaks from the heart and I felt that she truly cared about me.
In my opinion, she is a student of life and has done the research to backup her coaching. I highly recommend Kira!
— Stefanie S.
Kira is a fabulous coach! I have engaged several life coaches over the years, but rarely have I encountered one who understood me so quickly and was able to address my concerns, desires, and blocks in concrete, highly doable action steps.
If you are looking to take your life to the next level, Kira is the coach for you. She is, indeed, an alchemist!
— Ginny C.
Kira combines several powerful techniques to assist in the creation of a more positive mindset, outlook and outcome.
She is a brilliant coach for anyone ready to connect and grow!
— Dr. Kim T.
Kira walked me through my overwhelm and helped me focus in on my values, and value. After my sessions with Kira I’ve been able to move forward with much more clarity, confidence, and focus, and have been way more productive.
Most of all, Kira really inspired and supported me in playing bigger- owning my purpose and passion and the value that has in the world. This has enabled me to step out more boldly in the world to say what I really think, build my business, do the work I love and charge what I’m worth guilt-free.
If you’re looking to break free of your limits or limiting situation so you can do your good work in the world that lights you up, I highly recommend working with Kira.
— Jenny Mahan
I love how easy it is to be authentic with Kira - I don't feel guarded or vulnerable at all, even when we're talking about things that typically bring up my insecurities.
She offers a lovely balance between mindset work and structure, which is just what I need. After each of our calls I feel great about my work, and that's priceless. My work wouldn't be nearly as focused or effective without her and I'd be getting in my own way a lot more.
She's awesome - right off the bat she was encouraging me to think of my work in a new and helpful way. It's super helpful to have someone who believes in me. Her support is indispensable.
— April Beebe
I quickly learned that Kira’s enthusiasm is the product of real results for her clients; I can think of no greater endorsement than the sincerity behind service that comes from the heart.
She wants to see clients succeed and success is guaranteed for those who put her tools into practice. This can certainly require changing habits or even confronting unconscious parts of ourselves, but Kira is a delightful cheerleader and an empathic listener who reminds her clients as often as needed: we have everything we need to write skillfully if we commit to daily practices.
Working with Kira was both challenging, in that it encouraged my growth, and fun, as I appreciated her joy and practical techniques.
If you want results, I cannot recommend Kira highly enough!
— Lisa Hedley

This is For You if You are Drowning in the "Too Much" Syndrome
Information Overload: Does your inbox overflow with unread emails and your desk with half-finished projects? In the age of information, staying updated feels like drinking from a fire hose.
To-Do Tempest: Is your to-do list growing faster than you can cross items off? The constant barrage of tasks leaves you feeling like you're always playing catch-up.
Time Famine: Do you find yourself saying "I don't have time" more often than "Hello"? The expectations on your time seem to multiply daily, leaving you gasping for air.
Decision Fatigue: From choosing the right AI tool to prioritizing your workload, does the sheer number of decisions leave you mentally exhausted?
Perfectionism Paralysis: Is the fear of not doing something perfectly preventing you from starting or finishing projects?
Boundary Blur: In a world of 24/7 connectivity, has the line between work and personal life become so blurred that you're always "on"?
People-Pleaseritis: Do you find yourself saying "yes" to requests when every fiber of your being wants to say "no"?
Guilt Sandpit: Are you constantly feeling guilty about what you're not doing, even when you're working hard on something important?
Shiny Object Syndrome: Do you jump from one productivity hack to another, never fully implementing any system long enough to see results?
AI Anxiety: Are you simultaneously excited about AI's potential and terrified you're falling behind in leveraging it effectively?
If any of those things resonate with you, you're not alone.
The modern professional landscape is a minefield of these challenges.
But here's the good news:
It doesn't have to be this way.
Imagine a life where:
• You confidently prioritize what truly matters, letting go of the rest without guilt
• Your relationship with technology enhances your productivity instead of hijacking it

• Decision-making becomes clearer and less draining
• You don't get replaced by AI. You leverage it and use it to enhance your work.
• Your day feels spacious, even as you accomplish more than ever before

"I would recommend Kira in a heartbeat.
I made great progress on two book projects while working with Kira. She encouraged me to think of my work in a new and helpful way right off the bat. Kira’s help and support was indispensable.

You might be wondering how this program stands apart from other coaching offerings. Here's what makes our work together unique:
I've tried coaching before, but nothing really changed.
Most coaching focuses on external strategies and action steps. We go deeper, addressing the root cause: how your consciousness creates your reality. You'll learn practical tools to shift your awareness and transform your results from the inside out plus action steps tailored to your situation.
I don't have time for 'woo-woo' stuff—I need real results.
This isn't about crystals or manifestation boards. I combine time-tested wisdom with modern neuroscience and proven business practices. Every concept is grounded in practical application, helping you achieve tangible outcomes while working smarter, not harder.
Can't I just read some self-help books or take an online course?
Generic solutions can't address your unique challenges. Through one-on-one coaching, we'll uncover your specific patterns and create customized strategies that work for your situation. Plus, you'll have accountability and support to actually implement what you learn.
I'm worried about losing my edge if I focus on consciousness and purpose.
This work doesn't make you soft—it makes you more effective. By accessing your full range of intelligence (including intuition and emotional wisdom), you'll make better decisions and create results with less effort.
I've heard about mindset work, but I need practical business solutions.
This program bridges inner work with outer results. You'll learn specific techniques for everything from navigating office politics to making strategic decisions, all while developing the consciousness to execute at a higher level.
