In today’s episode, we are joined by Coach, Strategist, and Speaker, Katie McManus, to talk all about her business and how she grew it exponentially. She also shares her story, starting from her bad relationship with money, hitting rock bottom, and finally climbing to the top.

 

Katie's motto is "stop being a weenie" -  which speaks perfectly to her belief that anything can be accomplished with a little bravery.

 

Mission-Driven Entrepreneurs coach with Katie to get out of overwhelmed and into a plan that actually fits. Because they've tried all the other business coaching programs, up to now - nothing’s worked.

 

Katie’s a straightforward business strategist and coach who believes in empowered decision-making over waiting for motivation to strike.

 

With a background in B2C and B2B sales, Katie was trained in Executive Business Coaching and Leadership Development at the Co-Active Training Institute in San Rafael, California. She's a CPCC (Certified Professional Co-Active Coach) and an ACC (Associate Certified Coach) with the International Coaching Federation.
