Testimonials
“Before working with Katharine, I was at a crossroads professionally; unsure whether to continue my entrepreneurial journey or pursue a corporate path. My confidence had taken a real hit. Katharine broke me out of my binary thinking. She has an incredible toolkit and knows exactly when to pull out what. She completely shifted how I saw my own potential and helped me realize I didn't have to choose between versions of myself and that I could build something that honored both. In the moments when I didn't believe in myself, she believed in me, and that alone was a game changer.
Since working with Katharine, I've landed an incredible new job at a seniority level I didn't think was possible and I'm still pursuing my entrepreneurial journey. But beyond the milestones, I feel fundamentally different: grounded, confident, and genuinely excited about what's ahead. Katharine has a rare combination of strategic brilliance, eccentricity, intuition, and genuine warmth that makes you feel both challenged and completely supported. She will help you see what you can't see yet.”

VP of People, Wingspan & Founder, RABA Studio
“Katharine was an extraordinary partner as I stepped into my first C-suite role. She helped me bring clarity, intention, and confidence to one of the most important professional transitions of my career.
Through our work together, I was able to show up with a clear point of view, build strong relationships with peers and senior stakeholders, and set a powerful vision for my first 150 days.
A year into the role, I’ve achieved a huge amount — and I credit Katharine with helping me let go of long-held limitations about how women are ‘supposed’ to show up in leadership.
She is perceptive, empathetic, commercially sharp, and deeply experienced in senior business environments. More than a coach, she is a true partner. I’m incredibly grateful for her support.”
Lucy Cooper
Chief Commercial Officer, The Hut Group
“Katharine helped me unlock what I do best and define my own way of doing it. She is one of the very few people I know who can think completely outside the box while staying deeply relevant inside it — seeing the human being and the business context at the same time.
When I left corporate, I lost the identity and roadmap that come from working in large institutions. Katharine brought clear frameworks, practical nudges, and the exact activation energy I needed to move forward.
In just two years, I went from not knowing who I was outside of corporate life to building a company that has landed multiple six-figure contracts, with seven-figure outcomes on the horizon.
What I value just as much is that Katharine remains a trusted point of return when uncertainty shows up. She has an extraordinary ability to cut through noise, steady the nerves, and help me find the next right move. Every conversation leaves me clearer, more capable, and more energized.”
Opal Joshi
CEO, Cereona Partners
“Working with Katharine has been one of the best investments I’ve made in both my business and myself. After years as a solo founder, it was such a joy to have someone expand my thinking and open up new possibilities for the future.
Katharine is a brilliant thinking partner who helps you uncover parts of yourself you might never have voiced or had the confidence to own. Our sessions led to multiple breakthroughs that have completely transformed how I position myself and how I want to be remembered.
I first met Katharine at a time when I was struggling with my own identity, and having her as a safe, supportive space to explore where I’d been and where I wanted to go was invaluable. She is highly strategic, forward-thinking, and has a rare ability to leave you feeling that anything is possible.
I will always be grateful for the chance to work together.”

“Katharine is a rare thought partner who meets you at the intersection of who you are and who you’re becoming. In a single conversation, she seamlessly moves between deep self-inquiry, clear-eyed business strategy, and expansive, visionary thinking.
As a multifaceted entrepreneur living at the edge of growth, I’ve found her guidance both grounding and catalytic. She has a profound ability to attune to your essence—and help you see and articulate what you didn’t even know was there.
Our work together has shaped me in ways that continue to unfold, both tangibly and in the quiet, powerful undercurrents of how I show up in the world.”
Lindsey Schmidt
Founder & CEO, Ls. & Co-Conspirators
"Working with Katharine has given me the clarity that I need to bring my vision from idea to reality.
The joy and optimism, as well as insight, that she brings to her work make her coaching holistic, integrated and grounded.
Our work together has felt almost soulful. Whereas some other coaches have felt almost "only business", Katharine’s personalized coaching comes from understanding each individual and then layering strategy on top in a way that unlocks your unique genius and skillsets.
Katharine’s counsel is important to me and many people I’ve referred to her have become long-term clients - with much ongoing success."
Meg He
Founder and CEO, Aday
“I signed up for the clarity session with Katharine, and I not only got the clarity I was looking for I got so so much more. I’d been feeling in a loop with my career and my business for a while now, stuck in the day-to-day and constantly chasing my tail.
The prep exercises clearly reminded me who I am, what I’m best at and screamed to me why I was feeling so drained. It was game-changing to see in black and white why I was feeling so unmotivated.
In the session, Katharine expertly pressed me to go further and her graceful and supportive coaching got me to see the path I’d been already creating to success - and how simple it was to take everything to the next level. It’s that clarity and direction that’s got me out of bed every day since.
I’ve won more deals, had a record business $1m dollar month, and had more fun with work and my family. I know I’m working bit by bit towards my big goals and enjoying the journey along the way!
Katharine thank you for the beautiful clarifying and gentle slap in the face I needed to see just how amazing life is, was, and can be when you live your purpose.”
Charlotte Pearce
Founder and CEO, Inkpact
“Katharine has a remarkable gift for intuitive clarity, and her ability to guide and support others is unparalleled.
What most struck me about the session was her ability to intuitively connect to me and my mission. Even before our session began, Katharine had earned my trust. She immediately got my business. It was like she was in my head. It is truly powerful to have someone who can see the true value in what I do and how it has the potential for much bigger impact — even to be a movement.
Her sharp perception was able to see straight to the heart of my values and goals as a business and radiate outwards until it hit the self-imposed walls that I could not see, or see beyond, allowing me to expand my vision and start planning to make it a reality. She filled in pieces I didn’t realize I had been missing along the way, helping me to see the bigger picture while uncovering deeper aligned opportunities.
I highly recommend working with her if you're seeking transformation, alignment, and the realization of your fullest potential.
Thank you, Katharine, for your humble, receptive, and highly skilled approach in helping me on this incredible journey.”

“Katharine has changed the way I talk, walk, and speak about myself and my business in six months.
Katharine helped me see my value and got down to the core of my values to see that I am the person to be the CEO of my business and that I can have positive meaningful relationships.
I don't recognize the woman looking back at me in the mirror and that's because of Katharine.”
Suzanne Sinatra
Founder and CEO, Private Packs
“I did an Exponential Clarity session with Katharine a couple of months after my book was published by Penguin Random House. I was getting the “what's next” question from everyone and was trying to be okay with not having answers — trying to create space and honor that the answer would come to me and not freak out that clarity was elusive.
But then Katharine came along. She is literally a seer. Her intuitive hits about who I am and what I need to do and be were mind-blowing. She delivers insights in a short amount of time with a huge amount of love. Her combination of brain and heart is incredible. I left with clarity I didn't have before. It was like magic.
If you’re smart and sophisticated and pretty far along in terms of your self-work, yet nonetheless need help with clarity around your own shit because we’re ALWAYS too close: Katharine is the right guide and thought partner. She gets beyond the stories we already have to the ones we don't have yet -- or the ones that have been suppressed.
The “aha”s I had in my session with Katharine have stayed with me every single day since and I can already see the ways that they are affecting my choices, big and small. I’m forever grateful.”
Samara Bay

“Working with Katharine was pivotal in helping me see a new way forward. She nurtured a confidence I was lacking to promote myself and encouraged me to believe in the unique value I deliver for clients. At the same time, she challenged me to clarify my vision of success and get pointed on what I need to do to get there.
With a new frame of mind and strategic course of action to help me move towards my future goals, I was able to make some immediate decisions on how I show up in my marketing and communications today. With Katharine's guidance, this centers on being more of me.
I've been stuck in a crossroads, needing to prioritize where to spend my time and energy to grow my brand and impact. Working with Katharine gave me the permission I needed to lean into what feels most aligned with who I am and my unique business that blends storytelling, strategy and social impact.”
Laura Nespoli
Founder, Meshin Movement
“Katharine intuitively gets the big existential multi-hyphenate questions: How do all my businesses fit together? Which version of me do I introduce when I meet someone new? Which part should show up on my TikTok? How do I prioritize my time and my energy?
When I did the homework I realized I was spiraling in analysis paralysis, overwhelmed and not even recognizing it was a new level of subtle overwhelm. We got into it right away, Katharine had taken the time to go deep into my website before we spoke and we dove straight into the big questions. The biggest win was the clarity Katharine provided. And I love that all her unlocks and suggestions tie back to my purpose in life and my mission for this year.
I left with strategies that feel right and expansive, clear actions I’ve implemented in the weeks since, plus a deep tenderness towards myself and renewed energy for my work. The two hours felt really spacious, we had enough time to cover all the places I was stuck and go deep where needed.
Katharine creates a powerful focused, safe, brave and playful container and our session was nothing less than healing for me and my business. If there's a question or multiple questions that you've been trying to answer alone, lean on Katharine. Let her create a space to hold you through finding your own answers and absorb the brilliant reflections from such an intuitive expert.”

“I can’t even capture how deeply I was moved by our session!
Katharine helped me purposefully approach obstacles, some I expected, and some I did not. Our session brought me into better alignment with my needs and revealed internal roadblocks. She followed up promptly with further approaches to help me deepen the work.
I strongly recommend anyone work with Katharine, she reaches deep inside you and helps you pull out exactly what you need - your best and highest self.”
Dani Alexander

“Thanks to Katharine, I now have the keys to leading my life and business with the volume up. This was exactly what I needed - a deep, focused approach to elevate my vision and provide massive unlocks.
Katharine is a gifted visionary. She just gets entrepreneurs. She helped me wade through the mud and highlight a massive leverage point. It's made all the difference. I feel inspired and empowered with clear actionable steps.
I highly recommend working with Katharine!”

"I had an Exponential Clarity Session with Katharine at a crucial time, juggling my book deadline and other workstreams. Her supportive and intuitive approach provided the insight I needed, revealing deeper patterns affecting my professional and personal life. I came in depleted and left re-energized and ready to tackle the final sprint and upcoming changes. Months later, her insights still resonate with me, providing ongoing clarity and motivation."
Tiffany Yu
Founder & CEO, Diversability; Author, The Anti-Ableist Manifesto
“Katharine has a masterful ability to jump right to the core of the problems you are facing and to provide not only insightful feedback but also actionable solutions and creative next steps to consider.
She brought a blend of curiosity, directness, and empathy to conversations and helped me to unpack what was holding me back from the next level. I deeply appreciated the frameworks she provided, her fresh - and human-centric - perspective, and especially her intuitive approach.
In a short amount of time I worked through an immense amount of challenges and left our session with energy and clarity; two vital north stars for any CEO. I can't recommend her enough!”
Amy VanHaren
Founder and CEO, Pumpspotting
“I've been in business for seven or eight years, and I've worked with a lot of coaches. It's very hard to find people who are business savvy enough, but also intuitive enough to see things that you don't always see, or articulate things that you've actually struggled to put into words.
What I identified in my ongoing coaching with Katharine is that her zone of genius is very quickly understanding you as the business owner, she gets what your zone of genius is and your capacity for further impact.
Katharine gave me permission to dream bigger. She held space for a valuable bigger conversation that I actually hadn't really considered for the business. And a couple of days later, I sent Katharine a voice note. I had a big aha moment, as a result of some of the gems that we unlocked during our session. I credit her and her intuitive question-asking and coaching for carving out the space for me to come up with really exciting next steps and ideas for the business.
I think these sessions are great for anyone who's at a crossroads: thinking about the sustainability of their business, thinking about seriously scaling, their impact, and of course, their revenue, and thinking about having more fun as a founder.
Working with Katharine is both inspiring and restorative, she makes me feel very seen and excited for the future.”
Meggie Palmer
Founder and CEO, Peptalk Her
“Imagine walking through the woods in total darkness, and then someone hands you a lantern and a compass—that's exactly what the Exponential Clarity session with Katharine felt like.
After the session, I feel more equipped to trust my intuition on business decisions big and small, more confident that I can shape the next phase of my business in a way that works for me, and more inspired about the possibilities that lie ahead than I have in a long time.
I would highly recommend this two-hour session for any entrepreneur who's feeling stuck, discouraged, or struggling to put their finger on what they want. I'll be thinking about the content of our session for a long time.”
Adrian Granzella Larssen
Founder, Society Content
"My 2-hour coaching call with Katharine far surpassed any and all expectations I had. There are a lot of coaches and advisors out there right now, especially for entrepreneurs. A lot of them feel like they're pushing a specific narrative that feels impossible for my life as a mom. But Katharine is a game-changer. She is a gem. She truly has a gift, and I would recommend her above and beyond to anyone and everyone.
In one call she helped me revamp my website, my LinkedIn profile and social media page, tweaked my social media strategy and helped me set goals in a way I'd never done before... AND she also got right to the heart of some of the deep rooted internal barriers I've been struggling with.
She gave me practical advice that was different, even opposite, to advice we typically receive, that worked wonders. I got more out of one call with Katharine than I did in six months of therapy and 3 years of listening to business podcasts, youtube tutorials, and social media gurus.
If you have the opportunity to work with Katharine, do it. Trust me, your only regret will be that you didn't find her sooner."
Aubrey Aden-Buie

“Working with Katharine goes so much deeper than business coaching. She is an intuitive mentor, a thought partner, a top-notch strategist, and the most wonderful cheerleader you could ever have in your corner.
Building a business and a life go hand in hand - we can’t talk about the business without considering all the other factors of our lives. While I am incredibly proud of how far my business has come in the past year, what I am most grateful for is the support in helping me blossom into the woman and leader I have only dreamed I could be. I now lead a more joyful existence in all parts of my life.
Katharine helped me understand that I am multi-dimensional in a way I don't find overwhelming anymore. She helped me realize that I can do it all. In a world that tells me (a woman) it is impossible, Katharine has shown me that it is.”
