Helping high-achieving leaders navigate the pulls between career growth and parenthood
Executive coaching to help you achieve the most successful years of your career after having kids, stay in control at work and home, and navigate rising expectations without burning out
In today’s environment, how a leader thinks is their greatest advantage
Through coaching, we help leaders:
Set boundaries that protect both performance and personal capacity - without guilt
Feel confident in how they are showing up at home and at work
Prioritize what drives impact, without overextending
Release the pressure to be everything and everywhere, all at once
Together, we step back from the immediate demands to understand what’s shaping your decisions, clarify what matters most, and develop ways of leading that feel both effective and sustainable.
Hello, we are TJG
The Tai Johnson Group partners with leaders navigating growth, transition, and increasing complexity.
Many of the leaders we work with were recognized and invested in early - through formal development programs, accelerated roles, and high-potential tracks. They are now expected to sustain that trajectory as expectations rise, roles become more complex, and for many, parenthood enters the picture.
At the same time, the structured support that once guided them has faded. This is the moment when working harder stops working.
Our work is grounded in both experience and expertise. We combine neuro-science informed coaching with over a decade of executive leadership experience inside a multi-trillion dollar organization. We’ve also lived this path - navigating the transition from formal development programs into senior leadership while balancing the realities of parenthood.
We understand what it means to be accelerated early, what changes when structure disappears, and what’s required to sustain your trajectory when both career and life demand more.
We bring both the lens of an operator AND the discipline of an ICF-credentialed coach (ACC) to help leaders think more clearly, make better decisions, and stay on track with their goals - whatever those may be.

I spent two years dealing with constant stress and tried various coaching methods with zero results. Kari changed everything
Working with Kari has been entirely transformative. Her neuroscience-backed, values-based coaching technique was highly impactful, allowing me to understand my subconscious thought patterns in relation to my core values. Her approach provided me with a practical framework to check myself, reframe my thinking, and meet even the most stressful situations with presence and calm. She helped me break habits like constantly looking at my phone and failing to enjoy the present moment. Kari has an incredible, intuitive ability to ask the right questions and position the right tools at the perfect moment. That is truly what unlocked entirely new ways of thinking for me in just a few weeks. Thanks to her guidance, I’m now consistently showing up as my best self, both professionally and personally.

Kari's executive coaching has been an invaluable experience
She brings a thoughtful, careful approach to coaching, taking the time to truly understand me as an individual. Her style is strengths-based, asking insightful questions that guide growth while building confidence. Her ability to really listen is her superpower - she doesn’t just hear words, she understands what’s behind them. This makes every conversation feel meaningful and tailored, leaving me with greater clarity and actionable insights.

During tough times and difficult decisions, Kari has been my sounding board, strengthening my confidence in my decision making abilities
This year has been a turning point for me professionally, and I owe much of that to Kari. Kari has a remarkable ability to identify the skills I need to develop, and instead of simply telling me what to do, she creates opportunities that resonate with the way I learn best. This hands on approach has made a real difference in my journey toward improvement.
