BELIEVE IN YOUR CAPACITY TO CHANGE
In 6 months, you could be sharing your success story…
“I built up savings for the first time in my life and paid off two credit cards. ”
“[Before #FFCC, I was] Ignoring my bank account out of fear, ground down by the belief I'd never make more money and always be broke, the type of person who views money with disdain (mostly because I didn't have any but pretended like it was a moral value).
I moved into my dream apartment, something I never thought I could afford. I have asked for (and received) raises, upped my freelancer rate, and refused to settle for low-paying jobs just because they were offered to me.”
- Alison S., Actor & Writer
"I went into this believing that Katy would help me better myself, and SHE DELIVERED."
“To be fully open and learn those money blocks that Katy pulled out of us in the Financial Freedom for Creatives group is the best thing that worked for me. I didn't write any books or win any major roles, but what I did was learn how to save my money better than I had and actually how to spend it wisely.
The practices of decluttering was my biggest money block and that catapulted my life so far ahead that I feel like I can breathe. I began asking for the help that I deserved because of Katy, and now I have friends and colleagues who donated tremendously to my success. I received a professional grade USB microphone from one friend and a brand new laptop, all with the confidence from Katy and the group encouraging me to see the success in myself.
I've grown so much in the group that I even reconnected with my daughter because of the help to ease fear to get what I've always yearned for from Katy. She encouraged me to go for my goals, and I am now climbing into voice acting with a better chance than I ever did before Katy... I was 'TALKING' about it before her. Now I am doing it. I'm super grateful for Katy and the whole group entirely for helping me find a more confident me in this industry and, as a whole, in life.”

“Working with Katy has profoundly changed my relationship with money, practically and spiritually.”
“I first met Katy in 2019 right before the pandemic wreaked its havoc on the world. At that time, I had several fairly secure paths of revenue, but every one of them fell prey to the pandemic. I dipped into my scant savings to continue my work with Katy and it has been the best financial decision of my life.
Without a job, I was able to continue paying my bills with help from Federal and state programs, the SBA, and The Actor’s Fund—all of which Katy helped me discover and navigate. Our work on identifying my core values (I didn't even know I had those) and learning how to align them with my money thoughts, feelings, and habits, has resulted in the most significant change in how I view income earning, budgeting, and spending. Some of Katy's lessons may seem a bit woo-woo, but it’s the woo-woo that truly gets to the heart of the matter. It wasn’t easy looking back into my past to identify where my money beliefs originated but, as it turns out, absolutely necessary.
I am now prepared to begin my “investment job” (i.e. an actor’s “day job”) without the typical feelings of dread and heart-sinking resignation because I know what I want, where I want to go, and how to get there (even as it may evolve). Everything is in place for my short and long-term creative and financial wellbeing as I begin raking in the dough! How did she do that?!”

“Katy's membership program has been a big awakening for me!”
“Before starting with Katy, I had a rough idea of my numbers - expenses, revenue, savings. I didn't have any clear plan on how to get to where I wanted to be, and quite honestly, I felt lost in who to turn to for questions and advice. Now, I track all my money coming in and out! I have great new habits to track my money, track all the amazing abundance that comes my way each day, and I have clear goals and plans on how to get there. I also feel like I have a whole team of support and experts to help me get there! I know that I can go to Katy or any of her expert speakers and seek help for whatever I need. After starting the year with barely any work through my business, I'm now on track to finish with my highest revenue to date! I would absolutely recommend Katy's membership program to anyone looking to get on track or level up.”

“She taught me that visibility into your financial situation is not scary but empowering.”
Katy's program has given me the confidence to face my issues with money head-on. I used to hide from my spending and debt in hopes that my card wouldn't get declined, which was so stressful! She taught me that visibility into your financial situation is not scary but empowering. I now have a comprehensive and active debt repayment plan and since joining her program have invested in a CPA, business loan, and other financial measures, and they have been successful! I learned that it wasn't about controlling or even saving all the money but working with my situation and spending according to values that were important to me, taking the shame out of using my hard earned cash. Her program has given me all the financial tools to succeed in my small business and personal finances.

“I just wanted to let you know how grateful I am for being in your program!”
"It has allowed me to realize and understand how I make decisions based on things from my childhood. Things like how I have to spend money when I receive it and how it relates to me not feeling like I deserve it. Which also answers why I have to fill up all my spare time to do things instead of have the time to receive and allow space to enjoy not having a full schedule. Thank you for your gifts and allowing me to feel safe and be vulnerable in the group."
- Brigitte Rawlings, BodyMind Coach and Massage Therapist
"I've gone from having the worst debt of my life to being in a position where I will be debt-free by the end of the year."
“A colleague introduced me to her Financial Freedom program, which I initially expected to be academic, kind of like a money management for dummies curriculum, but it is sooooo much more. Even after just one month of analyzing my spending habits and recurring thoughts about money, I started to become more aware of why I have made certain financial decisions in my past. What was once shame had started transforming into compassion, and that's really when things started to shift for me.
I've gone from having no savings (and I mean NONE) to saving at least 10% of income every single week. I've gone from crossing my fingers during tax season to confidently hiring a professional. I've gone from hating parts of myself to loving myself fully, mistakes and all, because who I am today is a product of all that has happened in my past. It takes work. It takes time, thought, energy, and above all, belief, but what seemed impossible eight months ago, is now my reality. Her work has profoundly changed me as an individual and I have never felt more intuitively connected to my future path than ever before. I'm beyond grateful and will always treasure Katy for this journey, which truly, has only just begun!”

"I have benefitted both financially and emotionally from learning how to negotiate better rates, feeling deserving of my worth, and from feeling that deep support…”
"Katy has built and nurtured a diverse community of artists, technology workers, and media freelancers that supports each other as we have grown financially healthier together. Because money is also an emotional issue, this community has become an important part of my education and growth. We understand what it means to work in industries that do not protect our creative souls. With Katy’s guidance and knowledge, we feel safe together to learn how to break out of our financial mindsets and experience abundance. That is what makes Katy’s approach to financial freedom unique."
