Kat Herro on allowing herself to explore, setting boundaries & how to ask the right questions

44m · Published 14 Apr 12:00

Kat Herro is a COO and integrator for 7-figure visionary female entrepreneurs. She supports the entire inner workings of their business by supporting team hiring and management, systems, automations, and operations. She has managed 6 and 7 figure online course launches, and loves helping visionaries step into their full zone of genius.

She is also the co-founder of TTC Society, a community and podcast to support those who identify as women who are going through a fertility journey.

When she’s not working, she loves to spend time outdoors with her little family and french bulldog.

In today’s episode Kat shares:

  • The moment she realized the career she studied and invested in wasn't for her
  • How it felt to walk away from that path and let go of the identity
  • The lessons she learned from allowing herself to explore and try new things
  • Her "unconventional path" which might not make sense on paper but ultimately gave her clarity on what her zone of genius is
  • The importance of boundaries and how motherhood helped her stop overextending herself
  • How she manages multi-million dollar businesses and their teams with ease
  • How to ask the right questions to get the answers you need
  • What inspired her to create her podcast TTC society and what she hopes to achieve

And a lot of great nuggets of wisdom. I probably highlighted the entire episode.

Grab a warm beverage, some snacks if you want, get cozy and join our conversation!
