Kathy Caprino has seen the power that can be unleashed when women discover and unlock their potential. As an international career and leadership coach, writer, speaker, and educator, she is dedicated to helping women build rewarding and impactful careers. Her mission is to create what she calls “finding brave moments” that empower women to close the power gaps in their professional pursuits and soar to new heights.
Kathy’s motivation to help women rise within the workplace is rooted in her own journey. Though she had achieved success in her 18-year corporate career in publishing, she encountered many of the same frustrating obstacles that so many women face, including sexual harassment, gender discrimination and toxic colleagues. From the outside looking in, she seemed to be living the dream, but on the inside, she was unfulfilled and had fallen into the trap of doing what she was good at, but not what she loved to do.
At the age of 40, Kathy was laid off from her job, which became a defining moment – prompting her to re-evaluate her life’s direction and serving as the beginning of her transformation. She made the decision to take her career in a completely new direction pursuing a path to becoming a marriage and family therapist, a story she shared in her first book, Breakdown Breakthrough: The Professional Woman’s Guide to Claiming a Life of Power, Passion, and Purpose.
Since that time, Kathy’s career has evolved into leadership and career coaching for mid to high-level professional women, work that led her to become a top career coach and voice of leadership in the US and globally. Over the past 16 years, she has used her background in therapy and coaching to help countless women overcome obstacles and achieve their goals.
Kathy’s commitment to empowering women led her to write The Most Powerful You: Seven Bravery-Boosting Paths to Career Bliss. In her book, she explores the concept of power gaps, which are the ways women inadvertently give away their power and struggle to recognize their unique talents and accomplishments. Drawing on findings from over ten years of research, coaching, and training thousands of women around the world, the book inspires women to take action, “find brave,” and connect with their greater power.
Her positive influence extends further, as she hosts the “Finding Brave” podcast, where she interviews thought leaders and experts on topics related to personal and professional growth. Through her books, assessments, coaching programs, courses, and other resources as well as her work as a senior Forbes contributor, Kathy provides women with valuable tools to enhance their confidence, self-esteem, strategic vision, communication skills, and overall success.
