028 | Kate Nowlan Explains Why Having a Backup Plan in Business is Important

Kate Nowlan makes it happen as COO of GRACED BY GRIT. She manages her team leading by example and rarely sacrificing fun. She starts an impromptu ab workout in the office onemoment to get endorphins pumping for creativity and focus and leads a company meeting the next.

With her positive attitude, she shows her employees why working for GRACED BY GRIT is her dream job each and every day. She is a natural people-person and loves working with women.

Outside of the office, Kate is raising two teenage daughters while squeezing in yoga, pilates, a de-stressing walk or a run (almost) every day. When she isn’t folding laundry (hello, teenage girls) she finds time for her boyfriend, family and friends usually while sipping an extra dirty martini.

Kate’s entrepreneurial journey started out a bit differently than some, she started by doing small things here and there to help make ends meet for her family. This eventually escalated to a full-blown business when Kate moved to California.

After separating from her husband, Kate began a career that she’d been yearning for.

After being fired after only 5 months at her job, she had to quickly bounce to her Plan B. Kate experienced some scary moments after she was fired. She was responsible for her two daughters and knew she had to quickly jump back in after reconnecting with old personal training clients.

One of those old clients led to a business partnership. This partnership, is what grew into Kate’s current company GRACED BY GRIT.

Kate shares with us, how even when she was feeding her kids PB&J sandwiches, she was able to make huge leaps in her business.
