Becoming Your Own Muse with Katie DePaola

Jan 17, 2022

Katie DePaola is the Founder of Inner Glow Circle, a company dedicated to helping women become certified life coaches and build profitable personal brands. She is the author of the book, At Least You Look Good, in which she reflects on her life’s challenges and shares her advice on how people can “glow through what you go through.” A staunch advocate for mental health, Katie has been featured on TIME, Entrepreneur, Forbes, and over 50 podcasts. Katie also serves on the board of Bo’s Effort, a foundation in memory of her late brother, Bo.

Katie joins me today to discuss resiliency, shifting our perspective, and creating a world we want to see. She shares what led her to become a professional life coach and the realizations she had while working in her first business. She describes the “trifecta” of life challenges she went through right after becoming a coach and discusses how her business kept her going. Katie also underscores the beauty of embracing our imperfections and highlights the possibility of creating a world of our own choosing.

“Be your own muse; create the thing you wish existed in the world. If there’s something you wish the world had, perhaps your life’s purpose is to be the one who creates it.” - Katie DePaola
