“Work’s going really well. At the start of the program I was very sceptical of all this, but I took the steps you told me, just in case and they had the exact impact you said they would! I’ve shifted so much!
Even my personal life has improved. I’m a lot calmer now, I’m investing my energy in the right things. I’ve worked out what works for me and for my stakeholders and I’m more comfortable saying no. I’ve always been vocal, but you helped me to word it better, to get a better result. And now I'm following up, so the result is so much better.
My stakeholders are quite excited, but its helped me more than anyone else. All of the answers were with me, you just helped me to find them.”

BALANCE IS SO MUCH MORE THAN A THEORY
Cath redefines leadership. Known as the Goddess of Balance, she’s a multi-award-winning coach, Fortune 500 speaker and five-time #1 bestselling author, who’s spent over a decade helping women in leadership break free from burnout, invisibility, and pigeonholes.
She’s worked with everyone from aerospace engineers to policy-makers shaping the country and execs running the brands you see every day—think HP, Coca-Cola, and Sydney University. Her no-fluff, fiercely compassionate approach helps leaders amplify their presence, protect their time, and step into opportunities that actually excite them.
Forget cookie-cutter advice. Cath’s style sparks the ‘aha’ moments that make everything click—like finally realising you’ve been playing smaller than you thought and that now it’s time to rewrite the rules.
Cath’s podcast, Goddess of Balance, incorporates her own full life wrangle. Work is coaching, speaking and business leadership. Outside work, it's three kids, a sweet mini groodle, and a busy life by the water in Sydney. A DV survivor with complex PTSD, Catherine knows what it means to rise stronger, juggle chaos, and still show up with purpose. Her life isn’t a highlight reel—it’s real, messy, and full of the kind of lessons that make her the coach you want in your corner when it’s time to rewrite the rules and reclaim your impact.
