1:1 CREATIVE MENTORING
breakthrough
/ˈbreɪkθruː/
an amazing discovery or a huge amount of progress
I know you love running your business and you are so proud of how far you’ve come. I also know that you can see more for yourself - more freedom, more flexibility, more time, more of the stuff you love over the stuff you don’t, more life, more money…
I know you have spent so long trying to figure out what that looks like for you and how to get there. And all of the courses, podcasts and even your clients just send you in a direction that is fine - but it’s not perfect for you
You want to run your business your way, you want to build the life you see yourself living, you want to make your business your dream job for as long as you want to work…
you want your breakthrough!
working three days a week with record high income
After working with Cat, I feel super cosy, confident and comfortable in my business. I’ve had a complete mindset shift so even though my services look the same, the difference in how I feel is huge. I feel able to chat about my pricing easily and more clients are coming to me with higher budgets as I’ve made more time to market myself and connect whilst also making more time to rest. I am working less on the whole but making more than I ever have - I feel truly happy and can't wait to keep these values moving forward as I grow my business further and hopefully work with Cat again!
- AMY, BEGIN STUDIO

the clarity of understand what you version of success is and how to get there

hey, i'm cat
I’ve built my dream design business and have been working with dream clients and supporting my perfect life for a decade!
My dream business looks like sustainable, steady five-figure monthly income; dreamy high-ticket design clients booked six months in advance; working 15 hours a week and taking three months off a year; and running most of my business on autopilot, leaving space for my best creative expert self…
As a mentor, I don't need your dream business to look like mine. I want to help you find your version of success and the steps you can take right now to make it a reality…
I guide you to think bigger about your business and build the pieces that make it future-proof
I coach you through whatever feels difficult and how to make tough situations a thing of the past
I help you live and breathe being the confident creative expert you know you can be
I can guide you with your breakthrough ✨
increased income after one session
Working with Cat has been great, having someone to go through different parts of the business and strategise was exactly what I needed to take my business to the next level! We ironed out my process to free up time, I worked out a schedule so I’m no longer overworked and overwhelmed and I increased my income from the first session!
- NIKETA, STUDIO IRIS
i’ve been exactly where you are!

how does breakthrough work?
monthly mentoring calls
90-minute, tailored strategy calls
Across our deep-dive 1:1 mentoring calls, we’ll work on strategy, planning, and taking action to bring your dream business to life on your terms. Each session focuses on a key piece of your business, so nothing gets left behind. You have the flexibility to book these calls in any order, at any time, based on what feels most relevant and exciting to you in the moment.
1:1 voice note mentoring
6 months of daily support using Voxer
Between calls, you’ll have direct access to me through Voxer for ongoing support, strategy adjustments, and confidence boosts whenever you need them. Whether you’re implementing new ideas, navigating a challenge, or just need a sounding board, I’m in your pocket helping you move forward with confidence and ease.
your personalised “dream business roadmap”
your strategic roadmap for your breakthrough
As we work together, I’ll build a tailored roadmap that captures everything we refine in your business so you leave with a clear, structured plan you can continue using long after Breakthrough ends.
a year of booked, not busy
(only available with breakthrough)
Alongside our 1:1 work, you’ll also have a full year inside Booked, Not Busy, my group mentoring space. This gives you ongoing support, an amazing community, and access to foundational business guidance to work away at the basics whilst we zoom in on specifics.
more boundaries and in total control
Before working with Cat I was saying yes to every project just to make some money which lead me to working too much and in a constant burnout cycle. Within a few weeks I had created a new marketing strategy, found signature services that were doing things I actually wanted to do, and created a schedule to stop the burnout.
After our work together, I feel like a business owner rather than a freelancer! I have taken control of my business and I no longer let my clients run my life. I'm much clearer on my boundaries and I'm just a much happier in my business in general!

our tailored strategy sessions
-
001: design your dream business
We will discuss what your dream business really looks like and how you can build your dream lifestyle around it. Who are your perfect clients? What do you want to add into your business? What do you want to strip back? How will you balance your time?
This is our kick-off session so we can both feel aligned on what we’re working towards and how the rest of our sessions will support your vision.
-
002: build your lifetime offers
Your business isn’t a business without your offers. We will design your current offers and packages for dream clients whilst also planning a ladder of services to expand your income and potential additional income streams for the future.
This session will help you plan out your offers for years to come and where they fit into your future plan. It’s not just about right now it’s about how you can build with ease and peace moving forward.
-
003: create your magnetic marketing
To be magnetic to your perfect people, we need magnetic marketing and this needs a plan. We will build an intentional, easeful and consistent content and marketing plan that fits into your work week and attracts your dream clients.
You will find marketing easier. You will no longer leave it at the end of your never-ending to-do list and this ease and priority is going to transform your business
-
004: develop your expertise
You are a creative expert - there’s no denying it! But sometimes we want to expand on certain areas of our business and build on what we can offer. We will plan what you can refine and how to make it happen. With prompts and passion projects to help!
If it’s not about adding more onto your plate, let’s work on refining your expertise to make you the go to creative for your people who work on what you do best.
-
005: cut your workload
Your dream business doesn’t have to be busy. You can have more space, you can have more flexibility and you can have your dream work schedule. We will figure out how you will cut your workload to make this a reality and allow you to take at least 12 weeks off per year.
Implementing processes, automations, outsourcing and task management is transformational in your business and with your time!
-
006: your sustainable business plan
Our work doesn’t end once we’ve worked together for six months. I want to set your business up to reach your version of success beyond the work we do together! Your sustainable business plan will include booking six months in advance, scaling and launching offers, consistently raising your rates and managing your time so you don’t slip into feast and famine.
why does breakthrough work?
You get to control when our sessions take place across the six months to make sure we are working in a way that suits your creativity and productivity! Want to get all the planning done first to implement later? No problem! Want to spread our sessions out to have one focus per month, that’s good too.
I don’t expect everyone’s business to be at the same point when we begin our work together. In fact, I expect the exact opposite! In building your business in your own way, you also get to control how you build and what you want to prioritise. We start with ‘Design Your Dream Business’ and from there, it’s your call.
The work we do in the next six months will not just impact those six months together. We are planning your business for long-term, sustainable success. You will have plans, strategies and processes that will support your entire business through all of its stages and all of your life stages for years to come.
succesful product launch alongside booking dream clients
My sessions with Cat were so valuable and without her support, I wouldn’t have the business I have today working with dream clients and selling my own products! Cat has guided me with her own knowledge and experiences but also helped me find my own ways that work and help me get to my own version of success. In the first few weeks of working together, I managed to raise my prices, create more consistent income and launch a successful Kickstarter for a dream product!

frequently asked q’s
-
My booking availability will be noted on my application form for Breakthrough! I generally book 2-3 months in advance so make sure you’re planning as best as you can.
-
Our strategy calls are best spaced out to one a month, however it is entirely up to you how frequently you book them in!
Once you’ve booked your time, you will receive a short form to let me know how you’re feeling on each topic (marketing, processes, offers etc.)
Then for your planned time, we will sit down on Zoom and talk through the strategy for each topic. You will be able to record the session to watch back at any time.
-
Once you’ve filled in your application form, I will read through your application to make sure we would be a good fit to work together. If so, I will either send out a link to book a call to talk through your business or a proposal to book your space for Breakthrough (depending on whether you’d like a call or not!)
Once you’ve been accepted and confirmed the proposal, I will share my next booking space and you will be automatically sent information for our work together, schedulers to book your sessions and a form to tell me all about you!
-
I want to make sure we are a perfect fit for each other! I share plenty of advice and guidance in my blog, podcast and on socials so you can understand my values, style and approach as much as possible.
Feel free to also drop me a voice note over on Instagram so we can chat a little before you apply ☺️
-
One of my superpowers as a mentor is seeing deeply into what business, strategies and plans would work best for you as a person and for your version of success!
There is nothing I love more than diving into a creative business and pulling out all of the unique offers, messages and beliefs whilst also balancing that with exactly what goals you want to reach - both in your life and your business.
-
I don’t believe we can get the best results for you in just an hour or across a short amount of time. I want to know you more and make sure we get the most out of our time together.
However, I do offer a Mini Breakthrough where you can book one strategy session and follow up with four weeks of Voxer support. I believe this is a great way to work together without missing out on the transformations you can achieve. Drop me an email at hello@gattoweb.com to learn more.
are you ready to bring your creative business with lasting peace to life?
Join me in Breakthrough for six months of strategy, growth and intention as I help you design and bring to life your dream business in a way that works for you.
You also get access to my group program Booked, Not Busy for our weekly group mentoring calls.
Let me know more about your business below and I’ll send over a link for us to have a chat about your business goals and what you’ve love to achieve for your own breakthrough ✨
