Hello! Kathy here. Thanks so much for tuning into today’s episode. One quick thing I’d love to share before you go is about my video training program for organizations and professionals, called “The MOST POWERFUL YOU” which is the companion to my book The Most Powerful You: 7 Bravery-Boosting Paths to Career Bliss.
I’m so thrilled that a division of the United Nations brought in The Most Powerful You program as a training tool for members of their staff and other amazing global organizations have done the same. This program brings to organizations real-world, research-based, and transformative training for leaders, teams, and professionals to help them close their leadership, confidence, and communication gaps so they can achieve their highest and most rewarding potential and success in their work and projects.
Please take a look at what I’m teaching in The Most Powerful You training and LIVE course, and, if you feel the content would be instrumental for you and your teams, I hope you’ll ask your HR and DEI managers to bring this training program to your company. It’s truly transformational for work cultures and professionals everywhere, and it generates amazing results.
Thank you so much, and here’s to you becoming The Most Powerful You!

Calling all coaches!
Do you run a coaching business that focuses on supporting professional women? If so, I’ve got some exciting news about supporting your coaching growth, success, and impact!
Right now, we’re opening the enrollment of my private (1:1) coaching training program called The Amazing Career Coach Certification, which is a 17-week, hands-on training program that certifies female coaches in my proprietary 16-step career growth model, which is perfect for coaches who want a deeper dive into learning powerful, proven coaching frameworks, concepts, and skills that teach the 16 most essential steps to build an amazing career that your clients need to know about. And this training will help you become far more effective and impactful in supporting women to thrive today in their jobs, roles, and careers.
Through the program, you’ll also get access to a powerful Small Business Acceleration program called The Rapid Growth Academy, delivered by my friend and colleague, award-winning business growth expert Matthew Pollard. Through Matthew’s program, you’ll be taught critical business and sales growth info that will help you grow your business success in the quickest way possible.
In my view, there’s nothing on the market like it for both new and more seasoned coaches because it targets the two critical aspects of success: how you support your clients to thrive, and just as importantly, how to grow your own business to the next level.

Quotes:
“If you believe in yourself enough in the beginning, those people who believe in you will come along. Sometimes, you have to wait for them but you’re not going to find them if you don’t believe in yourself in the beginning.” — Cheryl Porter [0:04:14]
“We are so caught up in needing to control THE future as we want it to play out that we actually miss all the different possible futures that may play out and how you might contribute to one of those.” — April Rinne [0:09:20]
“If you’re mission-driven, if you’re an impact-driven entrepreneur, then every time you discount yourself, you’re limiting the potential energy you can reinvest within your business.” — Jason Marc Campbell [0:15:31]
“One of the lessons that I learned very early on in business is – 30% of people are just never going to like you.” — Laura Khalil [0:22:31]
“Mental strength is a choice. It’s all about what you choose to do every day [and] getting control of the way you think, feel, and behave.” — Amy Morin [0:28:12]
