AS FEATURED IN
“[Kamilah] founded a beautiful community of generous women who are investing time in themselves and one another. From group coaching calls to the library full of webinars to the members of her team lovingly holding the space, joining this private membership community has helped me build relationships, confidently pursue more independent consultation work, and grow my business."

“Being part of the Katalyst community has truly transformed the way I approach my business. One of the most impactful moments was a coaching session with Kamilah that helped me reframe my biggest challenge. She encouraged me to shift away from cold calls and trying to prove my value to people who didn’t know me, and instead focus on building with those who already recognize the quality of my work. That one piece of guidance has not only made my business strategy more effective—it’s been a huge boost to my self-worth."
Beyond that, the monthly networking meetings are a real highlight. Everyone in the community is generous, knowledgeable, and eager to support one another. Whenever I post in the space, I receive thoughtful, expert advice from women who genuinely want to see each other thrive. It’s rare to find a space that feels this intentional, this collaborative, and this empowering. I’m so grateful to be part of Katalyst—it’s an honor and a gift.”
Mirella, Katalyst Member
"As co-founder of a small consulting firm, I am always looking for ways to connect with other professionals. The Katalyst space provides that and more. It's a place to be real and vulnerable, to learn from a ton of badassery, to have people I can lean on and who can lean on me. I'm only a few months in and I've been delighted multiple times by how much I gain from this space. It is truly magic!."
Christina, Katalyst Member
“Joining Katalyst gave me the courage and confidence I needed to go from consulting-curious to full-time consulting. In a world where competition can be fierce, I've found the Katalyst community to be welcoming, forthcoming, and real. I love this community for having incredibly smart, talented women who are happy to share advice, lessons learned, or just vent. It has been transformative as I make the pivotal shift into full-time consulting. I couldn't imagine making this leap without Kamilah and this community and consider my membership to be an integral part of my business.”
