INSIGHTS FROM STEWART W. (boston, MA) after just three months in 2024:

  • the evolution:

    Kayla has a way of delving deeply into issues. Her perspective and point of view have been vastly beneficial in my psychological growth.

    They've helped me identify and begin healing some of the lingering issues that have been impeding my ability to recognize shortcomings.

    I’ve also gained clarity on the true causes of my lack of self-confidence and my inability to make real changes in my life.”

  • a moment of clarity:

    Kayla does not let me just tell her what I think she wants to hear, she continues to push and challenge me and forces me to really take a hard look at the underlying issue, and then continually tells me I need to stop making excuses and avoiding the uncomfortable places in my life and presses me to act.

    I have to say, it can be uncomfortable at times, but Kayla is relentless and passionate in what she does and she does not allow you to talk your way around or ignore the real issues.”

  • the journey begins:

    “While I enjoyed talking to my therapist, that was really it. I spent a lot of money talking about things, but she never really forced any change or provided me with any tools to help me make any progress. I referred to her as my “expensive friend”.

    Kayla and Dope Intentions take a far more proactive approach and push me out of my comfort zone. While this approach creates stress for me, it is this approach that has caused me to make real changes in my perspective and level of self awareness and has gotten me to do some deeper self-reflection, albeit a bit painful at times.”

  • the mirror effect:

    “I have noticed changes in my mindset, and I have also been aware and have made conscious efforts to be more positive, kinder and more outgoing with people and have become a bit less cynical and judgmental.

  • unforgettable wisdom:

    Kayla has helped me to understand that it is my perceived need for validation that prevents me from tapping into my higher and more authentic self.

    I continue to work with Kayla to better understand these concepts and ultimately have my ego and higher self exist more harmoniously.”

  • the inner dialogue:

    My self-talk is far more positive as I have become more self-confident and I have started to develop a great awareness of my higher self. Kayla has really helped me along this journey.”

  • The Dope Intentions Effect:

    How I do one thing is how I do everything…being more aware of this concept has really helped me to better understand why I do things a certain way and how I view and formulate opinions and thoughts about my life and the world and the people around me.”

  • Beyond the Sessions:

    “I have read Write This Down by Vaske and refer to it frequently both during and outside of sessions.

    I find that the concepts in the book help to complement and provide more clarity to the things discussed during the sessions which lead to a deeper understanding of the ideas.”

  • looking ahead:

    “As I continue to learn more about the concepts and apply them, I am confident that Dope Intentions will help me become my best self and live my best life.”

What people are saying.

  • Carly S. (Cincinnati, oh)

    "Kayla has guided me through so many uneasy paths. I’m an emotional person and I tend to look at the world through rose colored lenses. It’s hard to find logic and reason when I am so wrapped up in my emotions.

    Kayla has a way of acknowledging how you feel without letting it get in the way of how you move forward. I love this about her. I can feel all the things i want but how will i move forward without logic and reasoning? Combining the two has been life changing for me.

    Her objective perspective on life is so inspiring. She is a go getter, a doer, a hustler if you will. She makes things happen! She is a very wise soul with so much knowledge to spread. She is one of a kind truly. If you get the chance to work with her I 10/10 recommend it!

  • Rebecca L. (cincinnati, oh)

    Kayla Vaske's coaching has been life-changing for me. Her guidance helped me navigate personal trauma and see life from new perspectives.

    Her book Write This Down has been a valuable tool in my journey. Being able to discuss my thoughts throughout the book with her has been an incredible experience; it’s like having a direct line to the source of inspiration and wisdom. I'm grateful for her support in times when I felt mentally and physically trapped.

    DOPE INTENTIONS is not just a brand; it's a lifestyle that has helped me grow beyond my pain.”

  • David S. (chicago, il)

    “K. Vaske and I were in a support group years ago. Prior, we’d share our life experiences with each other and vibe so we both looked forward to being a part of a community who had faced similar challenges.

    Our group would meet once a month and have different topics of discussion. For some public speaking is a scary thing…especially when it comes to openly talking about yourself and where you come from. K. Vaske was always such a strong speaker and was one of the few to frequently participate.

    One day we were asked “What do you want to do when you’re older?” Such a basic cringe question, right? Nonetheless, I’ll never forget what K. Vaske said. She confidently without hesitation said “I want to help people in the ways no one has helped me before.”

    Such a strong statement that I’ve admired for the longest. And to see her today, on the way to best selling author… I promise you, you won’t regret any time or money spent learning about life through someone who has it all figured out.”

  • Keem L. (new york, NY)

    Kayla energy is so raw & truthful, so for some that could be off putting but for me even at times when the truth hurt I still gravitated.

    We formed a genuine connection & through that I got to experience her insight, communication skills, & someone who’s passionate about intention. We’ve had countless conversations deeper than the surface, we’ve set goals, we’ve evolved.

    One thing that always inspired me of her is how sure of herself she is. As someone who didn’t always have the confidence in theirselves, it helped breed more belief in me & evolve into a better version of myself.

    If you are looking for someone who’s passionate about mindset, evolution, higher learning, expensive auras, ENERGY then KV yo girl. If that doesn’t clear it, she actually wrote a whole book by the name of WRITE THIS DOWN which utilizes her approach.

    I hope this helps make your decision easier ☀️”

  • Steven R. (tampa, fl)

    “Kayla is unlike anyone I’ve ever met, and I mean that in the best way possible. I’m someone who loves to learn & grow & improve, especially when it means “being real” with myself and realizing I need to reimagine how I see the world and how I approach my life. Kayla, unlike any person I’ve ever met, can instantly show me a totally different perspective, a new lens to view & process things through.”

  • Brooke C. (cincinnati, oh)

    I’ve learned so much from the conversations I’ve had with Kayla. She has helped me reflect on past experiences, emotions, and what’s currently going on in my life.

    After every conversation I have with her, I feel refreshed and motivated to continue becoming the best that I can be. Kayla has the ability to help others come to realizations of root causes to their problems, and can provide the next steps to solve the problem.

    Ultimately, Kayla has helped me improve myself and my life. I’ve also purchased her book, Write This Down, and so far, it’s been eye opening.”

  • Carhon C. (dayton, oh)

    “I had the pleasure of working with my friend who is a uniquely talented life coach and I cannot recommend her enough! Her words truly transformed my life for the better.

    She has a dope ability to listen attentively and provide different non cookie cutter type views on a lot. Her positive energy and genuine passion for helping others is really inspiring, it’s kinda almost contagious.

    If you're looking for a life coach who will empower you to reach your full potential or at least alter your perspective on life in a better light, hit up Kayla. I’m super grateful for her support and guidance, and I know you will be too!

  • moodyy C. (cincinnati, oh)

    “Write This Down by Vaske is seriously incredible. Kayla took something as heavy as psychology and spirituality and made it practical, relatable, and easy to read.

    The way she breaks down metacognition and metacommentary is genius—it’s like she’s teaching you how to boss your own brain around. On top of that, she’s poured so much of her personal story into this book that you feel like she’s sitting there with you, guiding you through life’s chaos.

    I’ve got nothing bad to say about this book. It’s legit inspiring, and it definitely helped me reshape my thought processes. If you need a fresh way to look at life, go read it—you’ll thank me (and maybe her, too).”

experience this sh*t for yourself.

stop saying one day, and make today day one.
