MENTORSHIP FOR CREATIVE WOMEN READY TO BUILD WHAT'S NEXT
Not in a "needs therapy" way (though hey, therapy is great). More in a "I've been on autopilot so long I forgot what it feels like to be genuinely excited about my work" way. You want to try new things—pottery, writing, teaching, something you haven't even named yet—but the idea of disrupting your stable income to chase a maybe feels irresponsible. Except... what's the point of building a successful business if you're just going to be miserable and creatively starved inside it? You don't need another strategy. You need space to explore and someone who's actually been through this to confirm you're not losing your mind.
Your business is doing great. You? Not so much.
You can do everything "right" and still feel completely disconnected from your work. You can hit every goal and still wonder if this is all there is.
You've been planning your next move for months (maybe years). You're successful. You're making money. But you're kinda bored. You feel guilty for wanting more when what you have is "good enough." You've stayed in this because you're good at it—not because it lights you up.
And no amount of thinking will bring that clarity back.
Your next chapter is waiting. Let's build it.
Just because it's working doesn't mean you have to keep doing it.
You're allowed to be good at something and still want to do something different.
You're allowed to step away from what's working because the business should serve your life—not consume it.
That's not failure. That's evolution.
Here's what nobody tells you about building a successful creative business:
Three years ago, I had a six-figure wedding photography business.
Hi there, I'm Kate!
I kept pushing down the pull toward pottery, rest, and building something that felt like MINE. Until I realized: I don't want to spend my life doing something that doesn't light me up—even if it's "working."
Now? I make pottery three days a week, write to 2,500 people every Thursday, and help women like you navigate the messy middle of "I built this but now what?"
KIND WORDS
I went from working for free, to booking enough to leave my 9-5 and replacing that income.
I went from being deeply dissatisfied at a desk job, to using my creativity to build my dream life. Working with Katelyn allowed me to deeply rethink my relationship with money and rethink how I've been investing my time and energy. Katelyn teaches from experience and is one of the most genuine human's you'll meet.

Side Quest
Through values work to get clear on what matters, belief-mapping to challenge what's keeping you stuck, and small experiments you'll actually run—so you can stop planning forever and start building what's next.
The life you want—the fulfilling, creative, fun life—isn't on the other side of the perfect plan. It's on the other side of trusting yourself enough to try.

Stories of Transformation
$15K goal to $96K actual revenue
"Katelyn helped me get clear on what truly matters in my business. As a creative, it's easy to get swept up in ideas and inspiration, which can sometimes leave me feeling scattered. She helped me understand the power of structure."
- @laurencurriephotography
Raised her prices by $2k and booked at $9k
"Within the first few months, I had raised my packages by about $2k and booked five weddings at my new pricing (including one at the highest I've ever booked - $9k!)."
- @Michellekmartinphoto
From Overwhelmed and Comparing Myself to Confident and Celebrating
"There would be times when I felt overwhelmed or I wished I was at the same stage as the other photographers in our group. Katelyn would virtually hold my hand and remind me to give myself some grace and be patient with the process. She reminded me to celebrate my successes. Katelyn is such a passionate creative but an even more compassionate coach. I highly recommend learning from someone who truly cares about your journey."
