IF YOU'RE
FEELING:

OVERWHELMED BY THe...

burden of day to day operations that leaves no room for creativity or strategic growth. 

a lack of...

clear, strategic direction that makes scaling seem like a distant dream. 

unsure...

of how to maintain a balance between high-quality output, timely delivery, and your sanity.

i can help because i've been there

Processes saved me from overwhelm, inefficiency, unpredictable revenue streams and a ridiculous amount of stress. 

Like you, I've faced the feeling of drowning in towering waves of chaos and overwhelm that often come with managing complex projects and teams without the right processes and systems in place. I learned the hard way that without solid systems, things can quickly spiral into a whirlwind of missed deadlines and lost opportunities. That's why I'm passionate about using what I've learned to help streamline your operations, transforming confusion into clarity and stress into strategic success. Together, we'll develop tailored solutions that fit your unique needs, allowing you more time to focus on what truly matters—your family and friends, creativity, and your clients (to name a few). Let's turn chaos into clarity and take your business to new heights.

“Catherine is the absolute definition of Southern generosity and kindness. She truly cares about designers and helping us customize the BOD process to the tone of voice and values of our business. She has such great verbiage for working through disagreements or misunderstandings with trades. And so generous in sharing resources and examples to guide you through a tough situation. She put me at ease knowing exactly how to deal with a prickly situation with a tradesperson and the best way to handle it in the future. You can tell she has a ton of experience and knows how processes should work together. She was born to be a business coach and you get that sense within 5 minutes of talking with her. Her kindness and warm heart really shine through. You can tell why she has a successful design firm because she practices what she preaches and does it in a kind, caring and honest way.”
