Welcome. I’m so grateful you’re here.

Hi there,

I’m Cristin - Founder of Birch + Bloom.

I’ve learned that true strength lies in presence, purpose, and community. My journey—from executive leadership to facilitation and coaching—has been shaped by profound personal loss, years of guiding others through change, and a deep commitment to self-discovery.

In the past five years, I’ve experienced devastating loss: two pregnancies, my marriage, and both of my parents—all while navigating a global pandemic. Through this, I lost myself. But in the unraveling, I found something deeper: a renewed sense of self, an unshakable commitment to living in alignment with my values, and a calling to create spaces of transformation for others.

Birch + Bloom was born from this journey. Grounded in nature, embodiment, and relational wisdom, I guide individuals and groups through life’s transitions—helping them reconnect with themselves and each other in meaningful, creative, and lasting ways. I don’t believe in quick fixes or that we need to be "fixed" at all. Growth happens when we cultivate curiosity, presence, and trust in our own inner wisdom.

If you’re seeking clarity, purpose, or connection, I invite you to step into this space. Let’s explore what’s meaningful to you and create a path that feels true, aligned, and deeply rooted.
