Cat has over 10 years and 1000+ hours of yoga education, including Kundalini Kriya, Tantra, breathwork, Hatha & meditation certification. She is a certified life + success coach who mentors women into liberation from the suffering of emotional stuckness, nervous system dysregulation, anxiety and codependency through a unique combination of nervous system + somatic work, breathwork, and identity coaching.

An experienced leader of in-person transformational experiences, Cat leads women's retreats throughout the US and abroad.
