She helps individuals, teams, and companies see where old, fear-based habits have kept people stuck or started to limit what\\u2019s possible for an organization, and then start creating more courageous lives by getting into \\u201cthe courage habit,\\u201d a four-part process for behavioral and organizational change.

Kate has appeared in MindBodyGreen, Entrepreneur, USA Today, Forbes, Lifetime Moms, The Intelligent Optimist, Business Insider, and more, and her website Your Courageous Life was named a top-50 blog for happiness by Greatist. She\\u2019s spoken at conferences and seminars on the topic of courage as it relates to personal development, releasing overwhelm, business and marketing, money mindset, wellness, increasing emotional resilience, and healthy goal-setting using habit-formation techniques.

TAKEAWAYS:

Kate\\u2019s superpower is being able to put into words the things that are unsayable.

A quote that shook Kate and also influenced Kate\\u2019s choice to start a business and a successful business is one that was said to her at a conference before she had kids, \\u201cLet your kids be your why, not your excuse.\\u201d

Kate wants us to know that fear isn\\u2019t bad and you can\\u2019t ever get rid of it. Oftentimes we try to deal with fear in three ways: (1) avoid or ignore, (2) please or placate it, (3) attack it.

When we start to feel fear we usually resort to a habit that we\\u2019ve learned to try to cope for a short-term reward, whatever reduces stress. These habits are perfectionism, people pleasing, pessimism, and self-sabotage.

With the work that Kate does, she helps you to rework how you respond to events that happen. Instead of a fear-based habit that gets you short term results, she helps her clients choose a courage-based habit that gets them long term rewards.
