Cat Markel is the founder of Cat Markel Creatives, a boutique brand and web studio that helps women — especially coaches and small business owners — build businesses that actually fit their lives.

After starting her career in marketing and rising to director-level roles, Cat walked away from the corporate world in search of more freedom and flexibility for her family. What she found instead was what many women experience — the pressure, overwhelm, and constant juggling that comes with trying to do it all on your own.

Today, she works closely with women who are raising families, generating income, and trying to carve out something of their own. Through coaching, courses, and hands-on brand, content, and website design, Cat helps them cut through the noise, get clear on what they’re building, and create businesses they’re proud of — without burning out or trying to be someone they’re not.

Her work is rooted in a simple belief: when women build businesses that truly support their lives, the impact goes far beyond revenue — it ripples into their families, their communities, and the people they serve.
