Get back to living in your genius.
Let Kate take care of the front-end technology headaches and coach you on the on-going elements that matter.
After a decade in Fortune 500 marketing, communications and digital strategy, Kate Peabody became a creative life, career and business coach — and regularly receives new business, PR and partnership inquiries through her site kaptivateme.com (where you are now!).
Hating to see fellow new coaches struggle with the tech as they focus on launching their new business, Kate has re-launched her consulting business for coaches and coaching clients only, helping build effective Squarespace websites and train new business owners on how to use it and connected marketing tools like MailChimp for e-news or Acuity for scheduling.
