Kathryn Ficarra brings over 20 years of executive leadership experience, having held VP roles across start-ups, gaming, and e-commerce. Today, she serves as a transformational architect for high-performing leaders, executives, and entrepreneurs — helping them decode the true DNA of extraordinary leadership.

Through her proprietary IMPACT™ Framework, Kathryn delivers a neuroscience-backed approach to executive presence that goes far beyond traditional leadership training—integrating identity alignment, nervous system mastery, and purpose-driven growth. She pairs this with a custom-built AI bot that supports clients between sessions and a tailored assessment designed to pinpoint readiness gaps and accelerate results. Her focus is working with organizations and bringing this work in the form of an interactive workshop.

She is also a licensed facilitator of the Purpose Assessment, a science-backed diagnostic that helps leaders integrate personal purpose with professional performance — creating fulfillment that drives results.

Kathryn has spoken to a variety of organizations including Starbucks, Dreamworks, Women in Tech, DisruptHR, and Airbnb. Her work has also been featured in multiple publications and spotlighted on Office Hours on Apple TV.

She also has collaborated in several books, including her own title “Your Presence is your Power”. She hosts the Leadership On Purpose podcast, where she showcases leaders who are using their purpose to create meaningful impact in the world. Learn more at www.thecgroupstudio.com
