1975: Becoming a Teen Mom
This is me at 17, navigating the challenges of being a young mother with my son, Dave.

Cathy Fitzgerald

I'm Cathy Fitzgerald, founder of Cathy Fitz Coaching. I work with studio owners across dance, yoga, pilates, martial arts, photography, and creative businesses who are exceptional at what they teach and ready to build something solid underneath it. I also coach women navigating major life transitions who want a real plan and someone genuinely in their corner.

My background includes corporate management, building a dance studio from scratch and growing it to over 900 students, running a photography business across two states, yoga teacher training, and helping launch a yoga studio in Traverse City. I finished my college degree in my 50s and became a certified coach because helping people find their way forward is, quite simply, what I do best.

Every chapter of my life came with me into the next one. That's exactly how I work with clients too.

When I'm not coaching, I'm usually spending time with my husband Bill, taking a yoga class, hanging out with family and friends, or exploring and photographing the beauty of northern Michigan.
