Frequently Asked Questions
At Cor & Kin™, we believe clarity grows in conversation. This FAQ page offers gentle guidance and grounded answers to the questions people most often bring to their journey — whether they’re seeking values-led coaching, community, or a more aligned way of living and leading. Take your time here. Explore what resonates. And let this be a place where your next step feels clearer, more spacious, and fully your own.
What is Cor & Kin?
Cor & Kin™ is a leadership and coaching space rooted in clarity, values, and purpose-led living. "Cor" means heart — the inner truth that grounds who you are. "Kin" speaks to community — the relationships and belonging that help you grow. Our work helps purpose-driven people return to themselves, slow down enough to notice what matters, and lead their lives with intention. No titles required. No performance needed.
Do I need a leadership title to work with you?
No. Leadership is not a role — it's a relationship with yourself, your values, and the people around you. Whether you lead a team, a classroom, a community, a creative practice, your family, or simply your own becoming — you belong here.
Who is your work for?
Our coaching, group experiences, and tools are created for purpose-driven people who are feeling misaligned or stretched thin, navigating transition or identity shifts, craving clarity and direction, longing for brave community, or ready to lead their lives with values, intention, and courage. We work with established leaders and with young adults in their own first big transitions.
Do you work with young adults or college students?
Yes. Rooted is a Kinship Collective experience created for the launch years — young adults finding their footing, whether that's college, a first job, or still figuring out the path. It's a guided peer cohort (not therapy or tutoring) that helps young adults practice decision-making, self-advocacy, connection, and steadiness during a season when so much gets decided. It's often arranged by a parent. Young adults who want private, personalized support can also work with Charlotte through 1:1 Launch Coaching.
What is the Cor Framework™?
The foundation of all Cor & Kin experiences. Four pillars that support meaningful, long-term, purpose-driven growth: ROOT — Know Yourself · ALIGN — Live Your Values · EXTEND — Lead in Relationship · SUSTAIN — Honor the Long Game. It's not a linear program — it's a rhythm of reflection that helps you return to clarity whenever life pulls you off center.
How do I know which offering is right for me?
Each offering supports a different depth of work: Free Resources — reflection tools and a free live workshop. Ideal if you're beginning, returning, or just want a taste of the work. The Cor Alignment Intensive™ — a self-paced, on-demand workshop to pause, reset, and realign on your own time. The Kinship Collective™ / Rooted — 12-week group coaching experiences for doing the heartwork of leadership in community (the Collective for adults, Rooted for the launch years). 1:1 Coaching — personalized, private support tailored to your season. If you're unsure, reach out — we'll help you find the offering that matches your needs, capacity, and intentions.
What is the Kinship Collective™?
A 12-week small-group coaching experience rooted in community, clarity, values, and relational leadership. Inside this brave space, you'll explore identity, alignment, connection, and sustainable purpose — all within a small circle of people committed to their own inner work. Intimate, reflective, and transformational. You don't have to navigate your growth alone.
What is included in 1:1 coaching?
Private coaching offers focused, personalized support through the Cor Framework™. Depending on your package, you may receive weekly sessions, personalized reflection prompts, session notes and integration practices, support between sessions, and values- and clarity-based leadership tools. Ideal for anyone wanting deeper clarity, stronger alignment, or more grounded direction.
What is your coaching style?
Warm, honest, and grounded. I ask thoughtful questions, offer values-led insight, and help you clarify what's true for you — without pressure or urgency. This work is spacious and reflective, designed to support clarity and intentional action rather than quick fixes. We move at the pace that honors your capacity and your season.
How do online sessions work?
All sessions are held on Zoom. You'll receive a calendar invite with your link and can join from anywhere. Sessions are spacious, conversational, and guided by the Cor Framework™. After each, you'll receive reflection prompts or integration practices.
What if I've never worked with a coach before?
You don't need experience to begin. Coaching with Cor & Kin™ is grounded, collaborative, and guided with care. You set the pace and bring your truth; I bring structure, reflection, and values-led guidance.
Is this therapy?
No. Cor & Kin™ provides leadership-centered, values-led coaching — not therapy, counseling, or clinical services. We focus on clarity, identity, alignment, purpose, and relational leadership. We do not diagnose or treat. If therapy is what you need, we honor that and encourage you to seek a licensed professional.
Do you offer workshops or organizational partnerships?
Yes. Cor & Kin™ partners with organizations that value purpose, belonging, integrity, and human-centered leadership — through keynotes, retreats, custom workshops, program design, and facilitation. We can also bring the Kinship Collective or Rooted inside your organization as a cohort. All partnerships are custom-designed. Explore Organizational Partnerships.
What makes your approach different?
A blend of reflection, structure, and heart: leadership that feels like you, brave space instead of performance, community at the center, no urgency or hustle language, and sustainable, long-game thinking. We walk with you — not above you.
Do you offer payment plans?
Yes. Many of our offerings include accessible payment options to support sustainable growth.
How do digital products get delivered?
Items from The Heartwork Collection™ — including the e-book and the Cor Alignment Intensive™ — are delivered instantly via email after purchase.
What is your approach to confidentiality?
Your stories, reflections, and questions are held with care and confidentiality. This is a brave space — one where honesty matters and your truth is respected. Nothing you share is ever used for marketing or shared outside our work together. In group experiences, what's shared in the circle stays in the circle.
What is your refund policy?
Because our offerings reserve capacity and protect community integrity, refund policies vary by offering. Digital offerings (the e-book and the Cor Alignment Intensive™) are non-refundable once accessed or downloaded. Live group programs and 1:1 coaching reserve space, time, and relational capacity, so refunds are not available once these experiences begin. We invite you to enroll thoughtfully and reach out with any questions before committing.
How do I get started?
You can explore our free resources, join a group experience, inquire about 1:1 coaching, or reach out directly. Wherever you begin, you'll be met with clarity, care, and community.
