Better Together: Why We’re Joining Forces at Together Through
Over ten years ago, our paths first crossed. In the decade since, we’ve known each other through different seasons and roles, both personally and professionally. Through every shift, the through line in our relationship has been a shared commitment to staying curious, leading with empathy, and keeping the human experience at the center of everything we do.
Today, we are thrilled to share that Kristen is joining Together Through as a Core Collaborator.
Meet Kristen Hyde
Leadership Coach, Facilitator, and Experience Designer
At its core, Together Through is built on a simple truth: the human experience is meant to be navigated together, not alone. In a world that often pushes us toward isolated problem-solving, we believe deeply in the power of curiosity, collaboration, and facing uncertainty together. We share the values of trust, growth, and relational depth, while bringing complementary strengths, frameworks, and perspectives. Together, these differences allow us to think more expansively, create richer experiences, and offer more responsive support to the leaders and organizations we serve.
For the past two decades, the field of education has shaped both of our careers. Kristen brings the perspective of a leader who has worked within public schools—as a principal, district administrator, instructional coach, and leadership coach—building strong cultures and guiding people through significant change. Tara brings experience working across schools, nonprofits, and systems to facilitate human-centered design, develop leaders, and help organizations navigate change.
Across our combined experience, we have learned what inspires people to embrace change, how to uncover opportunities within complex systems, and how to build high-trust environments where people want to show up and give their best.
Whether you are leading a school community, a growing business, or a mission-driven nonprofit, the fundamental needs are often the same. Leaders and employees alike want to feel connected to their work, to one another, and to a shared sense of purpose—not simply put their heads down, complete their tasks, and survive the week. We believe that moving through change together can make the work more meaningful, satisfying, and impactful.
We are bringing what we have learned about people, leadership, organizations, and change to help individuals and teams better understand where they are, reconnect around what matters, and thoughtfully design where they want to go next.
We believe that when people stay curious, honor the human experience, and step out of isolation into real partnership, new possibilities emerge. We couldn't be more excited to walk alongside you and your organization, together.
Kristen Hyde and Tara Curry-Jahn are excited to partner together to support change in your life, work, and organization.
