About Kellie Grutko

I’m Kellie Grutko, Founder and Chief Pivot Officer of Purposeful Pivot—and proudly known as the “Spark Strategist.” After more than 35 years in executive leadership roles across media, advertising, and manufacturing—including senior marketing positions at Trane Technologies and Comcast Spotlight—I reached a point many high-achieving women do: asking, “What’s next?” That question launched my own reinvention journey, from corporate executive to certified transition coach and retreat leader.

Today, I guide accomplished women through life’s pivotal transitions with clarity, confidence, and purpose. Whether they’re navigating burnout, rediscovering identity beyond titles, or seeking a more meaningful path, I help them move forward with intention. I blend strategic insight with soulful support through coaching, speaking, and transformative experiences. My work is grounded in authenticity, human connection, and the belief that reinvention is not only possible—it’s powerful.

Throughout my career, I’ve led high-performing teams, spearheaded rebrands, and driven multimillion-dollar growth strategies. I now bring that same expertise to the women I coach, helping them craft lives that reflect who they truly are—beyond the boardroom. I’m deeply committed to sisterhood, lifelong learning, and leaving a legacy that uplifts others.

Outside of Purposeful Pivot, I stay active in causes I care about, including the American Cancer Society and Make-A-Wish Foundation. I hold a B.A. in Advertising from Penn State and have continued my education in coaching, public speaking, nonprofit leadership, and women’s executive development.

At my core, I believe in helping women embrace what’s next—with purpose, courage, and just the right amount of sparkle.
