Verificado @codabow.comI saw Cate speak at a young professionals event. She was inspiring! Her message about fear and how it holds us back at work was spot on. I recognized in myself, behaviors she was describing, and her advice on how to move past that was very helpful. I can't wait to see her speak again in the future.

Verificado @fibsconsulting.comI partnered with Cate to help us facilitate our business planning strategy day. We are just starting our consulting business, and we needed someone with robust experience to help us organize and plan out our first 3-5 years of strategy. Not only was Cate compassionate and patient about our lack of progress, she was also helpful and encouraging about moving us forward. We left our day together feeling like we knew exactly what to do to get our business off the ground!

Verificado @fibsconsulting.comOur consulting firm is just starting out, and we needed a strong motivations speaker and facilitator to come in and get us on the same page about our business plan. Cate was a delight to work with! She gave an energetic boost to our day with her kickoff about Change and Resilience. Her facilitation skills pulled us through the rest of the strategic planning process and we ended up with a strategic roadmap.
