Kat Zander is a marketing expert turned entrepreneur and consultant. This conversation weaves through resilience, personal growth, being a woman in a male dominated industry and being a working mom.
After surviving a brain hemorrhage and facing significant cognitive challenges, Kat experienced the difficulty of being misunderstood and not seen for who she truly was. This led her to start her own consulting business and launch a newsletter called Become the Wild, where she explores vulnerability and the human experience.
Kat emphasizes the importance of aligning your work with your values and finding a community of support. She also discusses the mindset of entrepreneurship and the need for resilience in the face of challenges.
We also discuss the importance of sharing from a place of vulnerability and imperfection in business. We emphasize the value of authenticity and the need to break free from the pressure of perfectionism.
We also explore the challenges and experiences of being a woman in the business world, including the need to navigate gender biases and stereotypes. We couldn't navigate this topic without throwing some shade at Isabelle Butker's husband.
We discuss the importance of setting boundaries as working moms and finding a balance between work and family life. Our conversation concludes with a discussion on empathy and the need for genuine understanding and connection with others.
