HI, I’M KATRINA…

BUSINESS COACH

PODCAST HOST

I help badass entrepreneurs reach the next level of income without all that struggle and overwhelm.

Ease and joy, here we come.

MY STORY

Once upon a time, a friend told me I have an innate ability to make others feel good about themselves without even trying.

And I realized that one compliment made me feel more recognized than anything I’d heard in my years of being a marketing specialist, social media manager, or digital journalist.

So…I quit my job. I became a life coach, helping others feel recognized and heard on a regular basis. And still every single time I was working with a client, I would find myself accidentally slipping in hard business strategy along with the mindset work.

And my clients started to see more than just huge shifts in their confidence and happiness levels, but in the bottom line of their businesses as well. (Nice bonus, huh?)

That’s when I knew that it was time to fully own what I do.

I started offering high-level business coaching, and haven’t looked back.

It’s the perfect culmination of the entirety of my career and probably the coolest thing I do on a day-to-day basis.

Creating a space where established entrepreneurs can make more money by having real fun in their businesses (no burnout here) and have a group of expansive life-long friends who have their back every single step of the way.

And now, I get to spend every day helping my clients get to that next level and feel good doing it.

MY MISSION

To show you how combining business strategy with your inner knowing is easier than it looks (and wildly successful — both in terms of money in the bank account and joy in your day-to-day life).
