Welcome back, Aligned Entrepreneurs! I had one of the highest-vibe conversations yet with Kat Norton, AKA ‘Miss Excel.' In June 2020, Kat made a TikTok video to give people Excel tips. Little did she know that her videos would go viral and eventually turn into a full-fledged, soon-to-be 7-figure business. Today, she makes six-figures a month and credits her success to the inner work she's done. In this episode, she speaks about growing up with an anxiety disorder, the time she spent in the corporate world, and how when she started to look inwards and shed her conditioning, her whole life changed. I hope this episode helps you see that any results that your desire are possible if you align with what you want.

Welcome to Real Job Talk, Kat Cosgrove, Staff Developer Advocate from Pulumi. We invited Kat to join us to talk about her experience as a technical woman in the technology industry. After a conference, Kat tweeted about being hit on in the virtual hallways, and Liz and Kat Troyer talked about how people really need to be more aware of appropriate behavior in professional settings. Kat started as an engineer, taught at a bootcamp, and then found her way to being a Developer Advocate for the last 2 years. Kat tells us how she's always asked to talk about the nice parts of being a woman in tech, but was excited to talk with us and pull back the curtain on the ugly parts. The parts we want to change. Now. First we asked Kat to talk about the differences she experienced as a developer vs working in a more public role. She said that as an engineer, the sexism was quieter; she was underpaid, underappreciated, overworked, and often talked over. She had to really stand up for her ideas and make sure she was listened to. As a Developer Advocate with 20,000 Twitter followers, she gets inappropriate attention and even hit on a lot, and when she doesn't respond positively, men have done so far as to threaten her job. Once, after a conferrence, someone messaged Kat on the conference platform to try to hire her because he wanted to hire a "female." Kat turned him down, and also asked him not to refer to her as female because she found it insulting. He flew off the handle, yelled at her, and when she posted redacted screenshots of the interaction, he filed a code of conduct violation with the conference and said she and her followers had threatened him and his family. He also approached her company's HR department. In this case, both the conference and Kat's HR department saw that the hiring manager was inappropriate, and that Kat hadn't done anything wrong. We asked Kat what she thinks the aggression she sees is about, and she feels like it might be about how women are conditioned to be docile (she's not) and men machismo. Kat hears advice for women in tech that they need to be assertive, loud, mean, and aggressive, and we all agreed that's BS. Why can't people be themselves? AND why in 2021 are we talking about objectifying people at work? It amazed us that Kat's DMs are “a cesspit” and people feel free to send her inappropriate pictures, comments etc. Would they send those to their boss??? We asked about people like us, who aren't as technical as Kat. She believes that men who are sending these inappropriate messages believe all women aren't technical, and that they always assume that she's less technical than she is, so she's constantly proving her value as an engineer, showing both her critical thinking skills while using her soft skills to understand the customers/users of her products and work as a part of a healthy team. People's behaviors can be different in the office with your team vs at a conference with strangers and acquaintances. Kat feels lucky to have been on great teams that have supported her and stood by her if people are disrespecting her. Conferences are social, and Kat has to be “on” for her role, which is different from the office. At this point, she's quick to file a Code of Conduct violation to do her part in stopping inappropriate behavior. At conferences, Kat limits herself to 2 drinks to stay sober and make sure that she stays safe. Kat said that when she calls people out for being inappropriate, she gets told that she's limiting the places that people can meet potential partners. Not true! If you are interested in someone professionally, get to know them….SLOWLY. Go to lunch. Find out their favorite pastimes. And if there's chemistry -- AND CONSENT -- you can take things to the next level. It isn't ok to come out of the gate with “I want you. Let's sleep together.” Kat's married, but her husband is private, so he doesn't come up a lot on her social media. She find that many men ONLY back off once she mentions her husband, NOT when she says no. Think about that. One time, Kat had booth duty and someone asked for an engineer. She said she was an engineer, and then he proceeded to ask if she knew what a DNS server was, and then explained to her how the internet works. Nobody does that to her male colleagues. Twitter's a weird place. How do you become a friend without being a stalker? Kat's met friends on the internet, and even her husband on the internet! Kat breaks down her hierarchy of Twitter acquaintances vs actually having her phone number. The screwed up thing is that after she said it, she was afraid people would try to find her number (good luck -- she doesn't answer it). She has 2 Instagrams: a private one that's described as just for friends and one where she sends strangers that ask inappropriately with a big "No" sign on it. She feels that people think that she has lewd pictures on the private account, but it's just so she can share things with friends and away from inappropriate internet strangers . We all talked about making sure people we work with know we're married in order to draw a line. Being professional means making people feel comfortable in your presence. How does Kat assess new roles for her career? When Kat is looking at a new job, she asks about conflict resolution. It tells a lot about management and the company's HR. She also asks about politics at work. She feels that companies who won't discuss politics at work also won't stand up for critical issues, and that's a sign that women should run.

Kat is an authentic, Jesus-loving woman, who loves to love on others, can crack a few jokes from time to time, and is constantly missing her keys! Kat moved from her hometown, Charlotte, NC, and now resides in Dallas, after taking a  chance to follow her dreams to cheer in the NFL! She enjoys being a full-time Real Estate Professional, part-time cheerleader, along with being a cat mom to Arlo. When Kat is not working, you can find her enjoying dinner with her girlfriends and creating content for social media. Insta: @KatPurr Tiktok: KatPur Youtube: KatPurr

Today we have the pleasure of hearing from Kat Vellos, author of “We Should Get Together”, who discusses all things friendship and how to establish meaningful connections. When Kat first moved to the Bay Area, she struggled to have ongoing, deep friendships due to the transient nature of Silicon Valley. She took this opportunity to learn about the loneliness epidemic and how to create meaningful connections. We dive into the loneliness effects of social media as well as the impacts of Covid on loneliness. Kat teaches how community builders can help their members form real lasting deep relationships through the 4 Seeds of Connection: Compatibility, Frequency, Commitment, Proximity. We wrap up discussing how to be intentional and honest with your needs and boundaries in friendships and community. Who is this episode for?: Everyone, In-Person & Online, Revitalizing 3 key takeaways: The 4 Seeds of Connection are: Compatibility, Frequency, Commitment, and Proximity. Both building or being a part of a community and establishing individual close friendships are crucial to finding meaningful connections and escaping the loneliness epidemic. Creating a norm for deep, real talk in communities will establish a culture of real friendship and lifelong bonds. Provide prompts to start real conversations, help people help each other, and make it known that this is a place to talk about XYZ. Notable Quotes: “Community is a wonderful source of those friendships and sometimes those friendships lead us to community. But I really think of them as two like branches on the same tree. I think life is full when there's a bit of both. When there are those intimate, close friendships with just a few people and then of course there's the outer rings of like less close friends, but you know, you feel good, they're your homeys, they can come to your birthday, you know? And then there's the friendly acquaintances and then there's community where there are interrelated ties between each individual person. So it's not just like a pile of disparate people that don't know each other, but they all know you in community. There's a sense of belonging within the group, to each person in the group, with each person in the group.” “The less you keep it in the shadow and keep it invisible, the easier it is to solve. So when I said to people, ‘I'm working on a book about adult friendship’, people were like, ‘Oh my God, I really want to talk about that. It's been hard or it's been this’, but they don't talk about it to anybody. Because everybody feels like you can't talk about it, but everybody wants to talk about it. So say this is the place to talk about XYZ thing, you know, no matter what it is, whatever topic that you tend to focus on in your work or that you want to bring to your community as a source of growth and learning.” Rapid fire question answers: 1. What’s your favorite book to recommend to others? The Secret Lives of Color 2. Who’s an up and coming community builder you think is going to do big things? If Lost, Start Here by Amanda Sheeren and Claire Fitzsimmons. 3. What’s your go-to community engagement starter? Instead of ‘how are you?’ - ‘What’s been in your tabs lately?’ ‘What’s something you’re looking forward to or something you’ve been dealing with?’ ‘What’s been on your mind that you want to talk about?’ ‘What do you do or don’t want to talk about today?’ 4. What’s your go-to self care practice? Nature 5. Would you rather have one good friend for the rest of your life or a hundred loose connections? One good friend. 6. Weirdest community you’ve been a part of? Living in an Intentional Community. Semi off-the-grid in a rural coastal jungle of the Southeast edge of the Big Island. 7. If you’re on your death bed and you could only leave one piece of life advice behind for all the future generations, what would that advice be? Whatever your gift is, give it. Whatever your purpose is, live it. Links: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/katvellos_author/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/KatVellos Books and events: weshouldgettogether.com Work: katvellos.com

Kat Williams is a writer, editor and of course the face behind the successful wedding blog and magazine Rock N Roll Bride. Started In 2007 Kat noticed a gap in the market for advice on how to plan and create a wedding that wasn’t the big white day, but in fact the small alternative, colourful, accepting and more importantly unique party! Rock N Roll Bride is one of the biggest wedding blogs in the world! When Kat launched her bi-monthly Rock N Roll Bride magazine in 2015 it was reported as being the fastest debut selling issue of a magazine ever! It sold out within 72 hours and sold over 1,000 copies within the first day alone. In 2019 Kat published her book, Rock N Roll Bride: The Ultimate Guide for Rock N Roll Brides, which instantly went to #1 in Amazon’s wedding category. Kat took the world and the wedding industry by storm which of course comes with a lot of negativity to deal with. Kat talks about how she navigates all of the things, how she deals with the haters, and how she stays confident and true to her voice and vision. Kat’s Takeaways  1. Having a large online following means you will get a few people who don’t like what you’re doing and that can be hard to deal with sometimes, especially when people feel like they know you. That can be difficult, but understand it’s them not you.  2. Wanting to help people Is one of the best ways to run a business and run your life!  3. Getting married is more than a wedding, it’s many loved one’s feelings, family traditions and beliefs and hang ups you didn’t even know you all had, but there’s always a different way to do it and actually do it your way and enjoy it all!  4. Happy people don’t spread hate and lies, so if that’s something you’re dealing with, just remember, it’s actually impossible for the brain to physically be nasty and be grateful or love at the same time. They are clearly in a miserable space in their life. 5. If you’ve had struggles around food, dieting and all of that body image, don’t worry if you stray off your path and struggle a few years later, it’s a constant journey and takes re grouping often. It’s like gardening, if we don’t keep pruning daily, the weeds will show up! Be kind to yourself!  6. Owning your business is a mental game, morning routines can really help you feel in control, especially in this world right now where it feels there isn’t much of that. 7.Exercising actually changes your thoughts, also try tapping!  8. Confidence is a skill; you can practice and cultivate.  9. You can be bubbly and not confident.  10. If you have self-belief you can be so powerful!  11. You can be fearful and do the thing anyway! In fact, every successful entrepreneur is, they just make friends with their fear! 12. We don’t know what the world is going to throw at us next, but remember this, you have the power to make your life the way you want it to be and you are more capable than you give yourself credit for.  *****GIVEAWAY ***** To celebrate Kat coming on the podcast, I’m giving away Kats amazing book ‘Rock N Rock Bride’ The Ultimate Guide for Alternative Brides!’ to you the listener, to be in with a chance to win all you have to do is write me a review on iTunes or if you haven’t got that, then share this episode on your stories and send me a screen shot of either or if you want a double entry!

This week we discuss the mysterious death of Kat Restin, a twenty-year-old who was found dead after allegedly summoning the Voudon spirit of Baron Samedi. We also talk about next week's horrifying episode, and one of the podcasts's favourite Australian horror films: The Tunnel.EPISODE NOTES: Remember when that one famly member told you to never play with a Ouija board? Well - imagine that, but with Voodoo. There is a deep and extremely rich cultural significance of Voodoo that stems back hunderds of years, and with such a rich history, one should proceed with caution when delving into such old magic. This did not deter the late Kat Restin. When Kat delved into Voudon magic, she had no idea it would end up killing her.This week's Scared Sh*tless horror movie of the week is: The Tunnel (2011), an Australian found-footage horror film that definitely slipped under the radar. This underrated gem is terrifying enough for me to never want to see it again, so you should.Facebook.com/scaredshitlesspodInstagram.com/scaredshitlesspodFacebook , Instagram, TwitterSubscribe to us on ITUNES, STITCHER, SPOTIFY, RADIOPUBLIC or your podcatcher of choice.If you would like to support That’s Not Canon Podcasts you can find us on PATREON.

When Kat and Landon Eckles opened the first Clean Juice outside Charlotte, North Carolina, in 2015, the intention wasn't necessarily to build a thriving franchise. Passionate about healthy, organic foods and with several years of experience serving them to their kids, the husband-and-wife duo were just looking for a change after a season with Landon often on the road and Kat as a stay-at-home mom. But the concept quickly took off, and through franchising has grown to nearly 100 locations serving juices, smoothies, bowls, and foods—all of it 100 percent organic. In this conversation with QSR editor Sam Oches, the Eckleses discuss how they've positioned Clean Juice to be a wellness-oriented brand, how their faith has informed the core values behind the company, and how they've overcome the challenges of maintaining a completely organic menu.QSR Magazine informationFacebook | Twitter | Instagram | LinkedInQSRmagazine.com Have feedback or interview suggestions?

Today’s guest on the Johnson City Living podcast is Kat Latham. In 2014, Kat and her husband Eric opened Johnson City Brewing Company in downtown Johnson City. At the time, they were the only brewery in Johnson City, and of course in the years since, brewing in downtown has flourished as others have followed the path that Kat and Eric paved. Also, there’s something really important I need to tell you about today’s show. I ended up cutting about a third of the episode after we finished our interview. I hated to lose that part, because that section speaks a lot to who Kat is, but Kat asked me to cut it and it was the right thing to do, which also speaks a lot to who Kat is. The part I had to cut was about a career change Kat made about a year ago. When Kat was growing up, her dad was a firefighter at Dulles airport in Virginia. Because of his schedule, he was very involved in Kat’s childhood...he was the guy who comes on the field trips, the guy who’s around to help with homework, and the guy who can pitch in with after-school activities. Kat grew up seeing that you can be a good citizen, good provider and a good parent at the same time. Sadly, Kat’s dad passed away about a year and half ago. But she described how even though he wasn’t a Johnson City firefighter, the Johnson City fire department sent 4 members of their honor guard to stand watch over her father at his funeral service AND the Dulles fire department sent 2 members of their honor guard all the way down here to Johnson City to do the same. Kat was moved by what she calls this special fraternity of firefighters and how no matter what, they show up for people in need, and she began to toss around the idea of becoming a firefighter herself. Flash forward to today, and Kat has followed in her father’s footsteps and is a firefighter. Kat works for the Johnson City Fire Department. She says her job with the fire department gives her all the opportunities she saw with her father...she can help support her family, give back to her community, and be around for her kids activities. Because of the fire department often sees people in times of their deepest need, they have a policy that communications about that work need to go through the chain of command. And like a good employee, Kat didn’t want to do anything to break the fire department’s chain of command. That’s why I cut our entire conversation about Kat’s experience becoming a firefighter. You’ll have to take my word that it’s a really good story.

Full show notes at:https://www.josephinebrooks.co.uk/podcast In this episode I’m chatting with writer and self-worth coach Kat Nicholls. When Kat was younger she struggled a lot with her mental health and also developed an eating disorder. It was discovering and developing her self-worth that had a huge impact on her recovery and that’s why she’s so passionate about helping others develop their self-worth. In our conversation we take a deep dive into how self-worth, self-care and having the confidence to grow a creative business are so closely tied and how discovering and developing your self-worth will give you a head start when it comes to building your business. Your business thrives when you do - Kat Nicholls You can follow us both on Instagram @katbluejay and @JosephinePBrooks

Join Healthy Gut Girl and Kat Donatello as they talk about keeping their fur babies healthy and the astounding benifits of CBD for pets. When Kat’s aging dog was suffering, she knew there had to be a holistic and natural alternative to pharmaceuticals. After a bit of research, Kat found this alternative in hemp derived CBD. What started out as labor of love to help her own pets, inspired Kat to become a passionate advocate for helping all pets with the use of CBD. Austin and Kat was founded in 2014, and launched nationally in 2016, and internationally in the spring of 2018.USE COUPON CODE kitty3019 for 30% OFF of all products on https://www.austinandkat.com/How about some discounts for shopping online??Thriveprobiotic.com HGG20 for 20% offAncestral Supplements Kitty for 10%Truthtreatments.com havethetruthCM for 10% offPhat Fudge HGG10 for 15% offFoursigmatic.com HGG10 for 10% off See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

When Kat said she wanted to do a whole episode about football, she got some skeptical looks from the rest of the Meat + Three team…. but by the end of this episode you’ll be just as fascinated by the role food plays on the gridiron as she is. Before we go deep with a look into the diets of football players, we talk tailgating . Imagine hundreds of fans gathered around a stadium – beers in hand, smoke wafting off hundreds of grills, all in anticipation of the big game! We enlist Atlanta chefs Nick Leahy, Rusty Bowers, and Kevin Rathbun to share some of their tailgating pro-tips. Starting with the NFL, we find out how pro players are using food to fuel their recoveries. Many athletes rely on the anti-inflammatory power of plants so much that they go all-in on a vegan diet. We hear from Chef Charity Morgan, a chef who feeds her husband (Derrick Morgan of the Tennessee Titans) and his teammates a plant-based meal plan. Scott Sehnert, the Director of Sports Performance and Sports Dietician for the Dallas Cowboys weighs in on the benefits of plants' phytochemicals in aiding players' recovery. Next we move to college, where Mary Margaret McCartney (our intern-at-large) takes us inside of Auburn University's Wellness Kitchen, a $6.6 million, 10,000 square foot facility designed to provide its athletes with optimal nutrition. She speaks to Lauren Silvio, the Director of Sports Nutrition for Auburn Athletics, about how she works to educate the football team about what food is best to eat on and off campus. And finally, our main story this week is about the largest group of football players in the US – the more than one million high school athletes. We speak to Scout Kirkland, a ninth grader playing football at Eufaula High School in Alabama, and his mom, Corey Kirkland, about advice he received when middle school coaches wanted him to 'bulk up.' It made us wonder: what advice should be given to high school athletes, and who should be giving it to them? To help answer this question, we turn to Laura Moretti, a Dietician for the Division of Sports Medicine and Orthopedics at Boston Children's Hospital. Love Meat + Three?

Kat McDowell has always loved music. She draws inspiration from artists like Foo Fighters and Jason Mraz, Kat's fun Ocean Pop sound delivered in a blend of Japanese and English is definitely her own.
