In this inspiring episode of our podcast, we sit down with Katrina Purcell, a remarkable figure in the tech world and a true embodiment of empowerment and resilience. Katrina, who runs her own consulting firm, brings a wealth of experience in mentoring and supporting early to mid-stage tech companies, helping them navigate the complex path to efficient growth.

Broadcasting from Brooklyn, NY, where she lives with her supportive partner and two beloved cats, Katrina shares her unique journey that intertwines professional success with personal fulfillment. An avid enthusiast of woodworking and creative pursuits, she brings an engaging perspective on balancing life's various passions.

We dive deep into Katrina's philosophy that life is not just about finding yourself but actively creating it. She recounts her diverse experiences, from completing a full Ironman to juggling an executive MBA program while working full time. Katrina's stories are not just narratives of achievement but lessons in overcoming challenges and transforming them into opportunities for growth.

Listeners will gain insights into Katrina's mission to uplift and mentor women in all fields. She discusses her drive to help women feel seen and heard, offering advice and sharing her journey in hopes of inspiring others. We explore the questions she's always ready to answer, like what motivated her to sign up for an Ironman despite not being a swimmer, how she balanced the demands of full-time school and work, and her experiences with Columbia's executive MBA program.

Katrina also reflects on her transition from being an employee to establishing her own business, sharing the pivotal moments and the best piece of advice she received about balancing career and family. We delve into the role of mentors and role models in her life and ponder over the intriguing question: if given the chance, would she do anything differently?
