How Coaching Can Make a Difference...
Unseen Obstacles
Recognize the Hidden Challenges Now
Many female first responders find their sense of identity deeply intertwined with their profession, and retirement can lead to a profound feeling of loss, requiring a significant mental and emotional adjustment.
I provide guidance to help them recognize and navigate these challenges effectively, without wasting valuable time, money, or opportunities.
Through personalized strategies, I empower women to redefine their identity and confidently present themselves to the world.
Stress & Anxiety
we do Need To Pay Attention .
The high-stress nature of emergency response work often leaves lingering effects, such as stress or anxiety, which may become more pronounced without the structure and camaraderie of the job.
Leaving a tight-knit community of colleagues and a clear sense of purpose can lead to feelings of isolation or disconnection, making it essential to find new social connections and community engagement opportunities.
As your coach, I'll support you in uncovering your own strategies for integrating mindfulness and community engagement into your life, empowering you to manage stress and reconnect with your purpose
Careful Planning
How To Fill Your Time
Transitioning from a demanding and unpredictable work schedule to a potentially more leisurely pace of life requires careful planning and consideration of how to fill time meaningfully, including hobbies, volunteering, or part-time work.
As your coach, I will provide a framework to help you create a fulfilling and structured lifestyle, leveraging your own passions and talents to fill your time meaningfully and sustain satisfaction beyond your job. This might include hobbies, volunteer work, a side hustle or a new career.
Improve Relationships
Reconnecting With Family & Friends
In the demanding world of shift work, countless women find themselves missing out on holidays, special events, and the simple joys of everyday life, leading to a sense of separation from the rest of society.
As we transition into retirement, a new chapter begins, offering the wonderful opportunity to reconnect with family and friends.
With deep respect, I help you recognize any deficiencies in these personal relationships and create thoughtful plans to strengthen and nurture these bonds, ensuring grow and deepen thrive throughout retirement.
I'm Kimberly Stratman.
I help women create and embrace their next chapter with confidence.
Retirement life planning is non-negotiable for a secure and fulfilling life post-work, and I, as an experienced, Certified Retirement Life Coach, focus on empowering first responders to devise a fool proof plan.
I emphasize a holistic preparation, including your physical, mental, emotional health, your social connections, your lifestyle choices and personal development for the next chapter of your life.
As a retired Dallas police officer with three decades of service and the spouse of an active SWAT officer, I comprehend the necessity of a well-rounded plan. My objective is to facilitate your transition into an enjoyable and regret-free retirement, tailoring a plan that leverages your strengths and addresses your challenges.
Your selfless service to protect others warrants a fulfilling retirement, and I'm committed to ensuring you achieve just that.

What others are saying
"I gained the clarity I desperately needed..."
As an officer in my mid-40s, I found myself contemplating the future and the retirement I hoped to begin in about ten years. The demands of my job left me little time to think about what steps I should be taking now to ensure a fulfilling retirement. Through working with Kimberly, I gained the clarity I desperately needed and discovered practical steps that have enriched my life today, while simultaneously laying the foundation for an enjoyable and secure future. This journey has not only enhanced my present but also given me peace of mind about what lies ahead.
—K.J.
"Kimberly helped me to refocus..."
When I retired, I never imagined that having a healthy bank account wouldn’t automatically equate to a fulfilling life. To my surprise, I found myself floundering without a clear sense of purpose, as if my days were evaporating without any real direction. Working with Kimberly helped me to refocus on what truly matters and make crucial decisions to align my daily life with my values and passions. Now, I enjoy each day with a renewed sense of hope and purpose, confident that my retirement years will be rich with meaning and joy.
—H.R.
"I'm uncovering new passions and possibilities."
As a woman who found great success in my LE career, I hesitated to retire because I feared losing my identity. I wasn't sure who I would be outside of work, but with Kimberly's help, I am discovering there's a full life waiting for me. I now realize that I have plenty of exciting years ahead, and by asking the right questions, I'm uncovering new passions and possibilities.
—A.R.
"I feel confident in exploring retirement..."
I always envisioned entering retirement with a partner, but life had other plans, and I found myself facing this new chapter alone. Although my finances were in good shape, I was unsure of how to construct a fulfilling future. Working through this challenge allowed me to reconnect with who I am and rediscover my passions and strengths. Embracing independence, I now feel rejuvenated and confident in exploring retirement on my own terms, where I see myself as an empowered, vibrant woman eager to embrace the opportunities that come my way.
—B.L.
