In this episode, Kat kicks off her summer series, “Back to the Basics,” by diving into a foundational principle from her “Evolve Your Coaching Business” course—the 75/25 rule. She shares how this simple mindset shift can help coaches stay empowered, take ownership, and stay out of victim mode when building their businesses. Drawing inspiration from music and personal stories, Kat weaves together coaching insight, business strategy, and soulful encouragement.
She also explores how to prepare for opportunities, cultivate meaningful connections, and create a rhythm in your coaching business that is spacious and sustainable. Whether you’re just starting out or recalibrating your efforts, this episode invites you to slow down, reflect, and return to the practices that truly move the needle—on your terms.
