About me

Who is Christina?

After years of being a corporate stooge, and then a serial entrepreneur, I developed a passion for helping others get past their fears of red tape, and minutiae. Starting a business isn't easy, and takes dedication and support.

By combining decades of industry experience with coaching techniques I help others to keep moving towards their full potential.

In addition to small business consulting, I am passionate about teaching self-defense techniques to women and other marginalized communities. (POC, LBTQIA+, etc)

Support for the Journey

My goal is to help you become the active author of your business path. It is my honor to be there for your process and support you as you expand, and create new possibilities for yourself and your business. With the right support, pretty soon a concept that started out as impossible, starts to look more and more plausible.

Taking the Steps

Committing to a healthier, more empowered lifestyle is just that – a commitment, and it’s a big one that will take a lot a dedication. My commitment is to provide you with accountability, understanding and support.

What's in a Name?

The word "Pansy" comes from the French word "Pensee," which means "Thought."

"Pansy Rebel" comes from a deep discovery I made during one of my many leadership training workshops. I discovered the two versions of myself that I pretended to be, in reaction to the world: Either a people pleaser, or an obstinate grump.

This name denotes Rebelling against your outdated patterns, to once again become the author of your own life.

For me, it's about offering the perfect combination of toughness and compassion to help clients succeed.

Frequently Asked Questions

Please contact us if you cannot find an answer to your question.

Why do I need a Business Coach?

A coach is your best asset when you are creating the life you dream of. They have already traversed the narrow winding road that you are setting out on, and they will show you the best path to reach your destination.

A coach not only gives accountability, they will be the person that holds you more accountable than probably anyone else in your life, past or present.

We also come stocked with lots of neat resources, and life hacks that we have learned first-hand.

How does coaching work?

Coaching is an interactive experience where we discover your goals and your passions and use them to help you travel down a path to the life you want.

Is it confidential?

100%! What happens in our sessions stays in our sessions, just like seeing a therapist.

How long does it typically take to see results?

The time that your coaching process will take depends on the complexity of your goals and your commitment and openness to your process.

It is recommended that you complete a minimum of 6 months to allow yourself a chance to see your progress, rather than feeling like giving up, when you have a few bad days (or weeks).

What types of coaching techniques do you use?

The techniques used will be personalized to your life and your goals. Below are a list of common strategies I use to help people transform their lives:

Meditation and Visualization Techniques
Breathing Exercises
Somatic/Nervous System Regulation
Neuro Linguistic Programing (NLP) and Affirmations
Time Management/Time Blocking Techniques
Project/Task Oriented Accountability
Core Values Identification
Deep Integrity Practices
Self-Defense Training

Do you assign homework?

Yes, absolutely. Assigning take-home tasks is an integral part of coaching, as it helps you to take what you've learned or discovered back out into the world and practice it. Homework also gives you the opportunity to practice Integrity and Accountability, which are the foundations of transforming one's life.

Do you accept payment plans?

Yes. Payment plans can be customized to your needs, and will be implemented into your client agreements.

What happens if I want to quit?

If you are asking this question already, I invite you to look inside and answer the following: Are you actually ready to transform your life and accelerate your business?
