WELCOME TO

Time Away

Come together to build what’s next

There’s a lot going on right now and the world is changing fast.

You didn’t think you were transitioning, but you now are.

You’ve known you need to make a change, and now it’s even more urgent.

You’ve already taken the leap into something new and now you need to swim.

In Time Away, we come together to usher in our highest good. The strength of the group, combined with time in nature and a potent set of 20 resilience and creativity tools, sets us up to make the most of the opportunities in front of us.

THE STRUCTURE

Here’s how it works

Retreats

We meet twice for a full day — once at a 65-acre ranch in Sonoma County and once online. You’ll remove distractions and focus on your next move for two full days.

Weekly Support

Between retreats, you get access to two transformational coaching calls per month to stay grounded, stop spiraling, and stay in action.

Accountability

Get paired with peers at the same place you are and hold each other accountable to your dreams and potential.

Expert Calls

Hear from AI experts, digital harm reduction leaders, small business leaders, and recruiters about how to best navigate our quickly changing landscape.

Creativity & Space

Once a month, spend a half day offline — reconnect with nature and your creativity, and keep your human signal clear amidst all the tech noise.

SKILLS YOU’LL HAVE FOR LIFE

How you’ll benefit

For everyone

Come home to yourself. The inner work that makes everything else possible — no matter what path you’re on.

  • Get honest about what you actually want — not what you think you should
  • Separate your desires from your fears
  • Stop circling the same decision and make the move

Resilience & Mindset

  • Work with resistance instead of being flattened by it
  • Break through the limiting beliefs that are running the show
  • Stay steady when the world is loud and the path isn’t clear

Momentum & Accountability

  • Stop starting over — build the consistency that makes progress inevitable
  • Get paired with peers who hold you to what matters
  • Celebrate wins in a community that actually gets it

For business owners & entrepreneurs

  • What offers are working right now — and how to price them
  • How to spend your time so it actually converts to revenue
  • Sales tactics that are moving in this market
  • How your peers are using AI to scale without hiring
  • Feedback on what you’re considering building or launching
  • Marketing strategies that are generating real results

  • How to use your network strategically, not awkwardly
  • How to hold your sense of self and worth during the in-between
ABOUT ME

I’ve been there.

Kit is passionate about leveraging nature and rest as tools for inspired, sustainable, & fulfilling contribution.

I’m on my third career change in three decades, and I’ve experienced more joy and more wealth each time I’ve made a change. I know it’s painful to realize you’re not living the life you meant to be living — or to be scared that maybe the career you’re in isn’t going to make sense in a rapidly changing world. We outgrow ourselves and sometimes need to redesign our world to match who we’ve become or where the world is going. It’s not easy or simple, but it is exponentially more rewarding than pretending everything is fine while a sense of misalignment simmers in the background.

At 26, I quit a top advertising job to travel the world alone because I realized I didn’t care that much about hawking makeup. I saw extreme poverty while traveling in Cambodia and devoted myself to social impact work for the next 15 years. Making the change from marketing to advocacy was brutal — no one took me seriously. But I was relentless and ended up at Google.org in my 30s, leading YouTube’s Mental Health Initiative, Google Environment Marketing, and Grow with Google. It was in my final role leading brand strategy for YouTube that I realized I was in the wrong place again. I could see the writing on the wall with AI and knew I needed to move. I started reskilling as a coach in 2023, got laid off in 2024, and launched my coaching business later that year.

My business took off quickly and I landed a book deal in 2025. Being true to yourself works — and so does being honest about where the world is going.

WHERE WE’RE STARTING FROM

Right now you might be:

Hiding in “I don’t know”

Telling yourself what you’ve got is good enough (the golden handcuffs are real, I know)

Applying for jobs you don’t want

Every other month, going back and forth between getting a job vs. being a solopreneur

Believing you can’t make money doing the thing you love

Endlessly analyzing options, weighing the pros and cons — stuck in a nonstop spin cycle

Watching others go for what they want, admiring their courage and wishing you could do the same

But I have good news — you can go for it too. And we’re going to do it together.

WHAT’S INCLUDED

Here’s how it works

GENERAL ADMISSION

The Full Experience

Retreats!
Two full-day retreats — the first at a 65-acre ranch in Sonoma, the second from the comfort of your home. You’ll hike, connect, and play with your community while doing the equivalent of 4 months of transformational coaching in two days. By slowing down and removing distractions, we move farther, faster. Join pre-launch for discounted access to Kit’s upcoming in-person retreats.

Transformation Calls
Twice a month, 90-min transformational skills calls where you’ll learn how to get unstuck, clear, and take consistent action toward your goals. You’ll practice over 20 science-based tools you can use for life.

Community
Access to the Time Away Slack channel to share wins daily, track weekly commitments and results, and swap tips on the latest AI tools, business-building strategies, or how to get your foot in the door of your dream company.

Accountability
Meet four times a month with your dream team of peers. Week one: set goals. Week two: dismantle limiting beliefs. Week three: mastermind on your most urgent challenge. Week four: accelerated manifestation — dreaming bigger than you ever thought possible.

Spaciousness
Once a month, take an artist day or half-day. Refuel your creativity, do something you desire, or spend time in nature. These days remind you of all that’s already here — and paradoxically help you achieve your goals faster.

Access to Support
Once a month, 90-min Q&A and coaching calls with Kit — your chance to get 1:1 support, answers to burning questions, or feedback on challenges you’re facing.


$4,500 paid in full

or $416/month for 12 months  ·  $4,000 + bonus monthly 1:1 in pre-launch

VIP

Deep Personal Support

Monthly Private Coaching
Deep personal support. Kit will know your story and goals just as deeply as you do and will be in your corner to make it all happen.

Daily Voice Note Support
24/7 access to Kit as you work towards your goals — daily inspiration, unblocking, and input on the decisions you’re making.

Weekly Materials Review
As you build your online presence, design business plans, touch up your resume, or develop your brand’s position — get Kit’s expert strategic input on the work you’re creating.

Right now you’ve got two choices.

You can keep on keepin’ on and spend the next year telling yourself what you’ve got is good enough, or that maybe next year, when the economic and technological outlook is clearer, you’ll go for it. You can keep watching as your friends and peers make moves you wish you were making.

Or, you can decide that now is the time you’re going to go for it, and you’re going to invest in giving yourself the support you need. We don’t succeed alone — we succeed when we’re deeply supported, in a community of like-minded leaders, and equipped with all the skills we need to take our lives to the next level.

The most common phrase we hear in response to Time Away is ‘life-changing.’ Investing in a program like Time Away will 100% change the trajectory of your life. You will not be the same human you were when you started. Over the course of six months, you’ll peel back layers of hurt and pain, build intimate relationships that are unlike anything else in your life, and feel more proud of yourself than you have in years. You’ll feel prepared for whatever happens next.

Are you ready to begin?
