Hi, I’m Kate Bagoy.
I’m a freelance product designer, UX mentor, digital nomad and online business coach. I love helping other designers, developers & tech pros build businesses they can run from the beach.

Kate’s personal mission is to inspire and empower people to lead lives by design, not default.
Simple strategies, amazing results.

“Kate is exactly the kick in the pants I needed to stop dreaming and start doing. She gets to the bottom of things and has great ideas, each time we speak I leave more confident and excited, would definitely recommend!”
Rachel
“Working with Kate was great. She is fun and energetic and really helped me get my business and website structured in a way that clearly communicated to my customers and helped me to attract more leads.”
Laura Haver
“Kate is an incredible business coach and truly authentic at her craft. With her, there is no fluff nor false promises. She helped me realize that building my own business wasn’t so scary after all. I couldn’t have done it without her!”
Belema Ronabere
“I want to say a special thank you for all you did for me in the last 6 months. It has been truly life changing. I went from shy, scared and unfocused to productive, confident and hitting my first $5k month.
My clarity skyrocketed and my business and my life has changed forever.
Thank you for being an amazing coach, pushing me through all my mindset blocks and getting me to explore the potential you knew I always had. I really appreciate it.”
Dan San
“Working with Kate was truly an amazing experience! I worked growing startups for years with the intent of starting my own business but lacked the clarity and framework to build the type of business I wanted.
Kate’s Six Figure Freelancers program and personal coaching transformed my life and business.
Not only did I finally start my company but within the first 90 days I’ve already connected with 80 companies and have 10 proposals out, valued at $700,000. Thank you for the amazing guidance Kate!”
Ashley Bachman
“Working with Kate has been incredible! My private coaching sessions with Kate helped me take my business from an idea to an actual money-making venture! Her advice and guidance have been invaluable to me in launching my business.”
