Catriona Pollard is the author of From Unknown To Expert, a step by step framework designed to help entrepreneurs develop effective PR and social media strategies to become recognised as influencers in their field.

Sick of the corporate world, its corner office and its politics, Catriona Pollard decided to leave her successful career to launch herself in the entrepreneurial life. With her passion for social media and entrepreneurial drive, she set out and became one of Australia’s top 50 most influential women entrepreneurs in 2015.  She explains her “AH-HA” moment being on stage when she realised being in the spotlight was not about her it was about how her words could influence the audience businesses in a positive way.  Step into the spot light to make the world a better place.  Adapability and creativity is her greatest strength Being the author of “Unknown to Expert”, Pollard founded CP Communications in 2001, in which it was recognised as one of Australia’s leading PR social media agencies.

“I think so often we get caught up in this idea around, I can't do it, I'm not good enough yet, I don't know enough yet. I think we need to start thinking about these words: Yes and no and choose to have a life where we put ourselves in situations where we say yes!” - Catriona Pollard, The Moment HQ podcast Catriona Pollard is a speaker, Author of From Unknown to Expert and also the founder and director of CP Communications—one of Australia's most respected and innovative PR and social media agencies. She works with world-leading brands as well as up-and coming organisations. She is passionate about social media, public relations, business and bringing them all together to create real, financial success for entrepreneurs and organisations. She's got an interesting story where she started out being a very shy and introverted person yet decided to challenge herself and push past these ideas and labels to become a professional speaker at TEDx, amongst other notable organisations. While she may have felt ashamed in the beginning of being an introverted person, she realised in fact it was a gift. Catriona came to realise that her shyness and being introverted allowed her assess situations very quickly compared to the extroverts, use intuition more effectively and support others in rising into stepping out of their shell to have a voice. Through soul searching and asking herself the deeper questions as to who she wanted to be and how she wanted to be in the world, she has created her own path of success. “IT'S NOT WHAT WE GET OUT OF THE WORLD, IT'S WHAT WE GIVE THE WORLD. I THINK THAT'S A VERY BEAUTIFUL PLACE TO LIVE.” Catriona and I have a chat about HAVING A VOICE & THE POWER OF YES Learn about: The positive side to being introverted How you have a choice to say, Yes or No in each moment Standing in the spotlight authentically Why not everything needs to be a career The Moment HQ Signature Question time Find out: What moves Catriona? What she believes is her greatest asset? What she's scared of? What else she'd be doing if she wasn't in her profession? The best piece of advice Catriona's been given.

She went through a 6-7 year grieving process because she NEVER imagined her life without a child. Looking back on that difficult grieving time, Catriona realises that she should have sought counselling for her loss. She finally realised that her life was a blank canvas: “What is my life going to be? What are the positives about my circumstances?” She focused on building her business, personal development, public speaking, art and creativity. Catriona has figured out how to turn the negatives into positives. “Do you keep sitting in the loss or do you use it in ways to propel yourself forward?” We should all avoid blanket statements that pass judgment on others’ choices. She explains how she feels and responds to the question: “Do you have children?” She manifests her creative energy through artwork, writing, and public speaking.
