Looking for a guest speaker, blogger, or podcast guest?

I love speaking, being interviewed, contributing guest posts, and connecting with likeminded souls on the topics of cozy business, introverts and highly sensitive people, and doing business differently…

Media

With almost 10 years experience in the online business and coaching space, I have had the honour of being featured and had my work spotlighted in blog features, podcasts, programs, and summits around the web.

My expertise on introverts and highly sensitive people in business has been showcased in the Introvertpreneur Summit 2023, as well as award winning program Workshop Wonderful, and other programs such as Quietly Unstoppable by Iterate Social, and as a guest teacher in Nicola Newman’s Flourish program, to name a few.

My first podcast, The League of Extraordinary Introverts, has had over 150,000 downloads and in 2022 I launched my brand new Emerge + Expand podcast that has been very well received.

I love supporting people who are creating a deep and meaningful impact in the world through their programs, podcasts, summits, and events. I have been a speaker at events such as the Beautiful You Coaching Academy Inpsiration Days in Brisbane, Melbourne, and New York, as well as other events in Sydney and Brisbane.

I would be honoured to connect with you and your audience, please reach out if you feel we would be a good fit.

Please also check out my speaker page and social impact policy as I am committed to  participating in diverse and inclusive events.

Katherine Mackenzie-Smith Professional Bio

Katherine Mackenzie-Smith is an award-winning business coach and strategist for introverts and highly sensitive souls, a certified Energy + Soul Practitioner, recognised Inclusive Coach, and trauma-informed space holder.  Through her 1:1 mentoring, group programs, and memberships, Katherine supports gentle leaders to create successful, sustainable, soul-led businesses by recognising their own innate energy and strengths. 

Operating through an anticapitalist and antiracist lens, Katherine created the Cozy Business framework that focuses on people over profits, a connected tight-knit community, and decentering money, followers, and exponential growth to build a vision of business success that is different from what we know it to be.

Katherine is the host of the Emerge + Expand podcast, International Coach of the Year 2023, and has been named a ‘self help guru’ by Elle Magazine, as well as being featured in publications, podcasts, and websites including Cleo Magazine, Collective Hub, Inspired Coach, and The Introvert Entrepreneur.
