You close your laptop at night and your brain keeps working.
You wake up tired, already behind, already thinking about your to do's.
I know this because I built a 550K international coaching business this exact way.
​
→ Emails before breakfast.
→ Laptop open on Sundays.
→ Client messages answered at 9pm.
→ Payment plans I did not think through.
→ Gym skipped. Sleep wrecked.
→ Brain never off. ADHD bad.
Some weeks I flew through my to do list.
Other weeks I stared at my screen wondering why everything felt so hard.
​
I thought I had a consistency problem.
What I actually had was a sustainability problem.
​
​I was running a business like my body was a machine.
And it eventually cost me my health and over $90K in medical bills.
​
That wake up call forced me to rebuild my business in a completely different way.
Today, I teach business owners how to run companies that keep functioning when energy fluctuates, capacity changes, or life gets busy. One that doesn't rely on urgency, overworking, or constant availability.
SO WHAT'S GOING ON? YOU'RE...
→ Not making the kind of money that'll allow you to take more vacations, despite being booked.
→ Sitting on a list of business ideas that'll make more money, but with no time execute them.
→ Feeling the pressure to "do more" and "show up more" just to keep the momentum up.
→ Trying to scale your business with the same strategy you used to start.
→ Replying to clients at all hours just to make them happy they hired you (and will hire you, again)
THE CALM CEO IS FOR YOU, IF YOU'RE READY TO...
→ Close your laptop at a normal hour without mentally working afterward
→ Sleep through the night without running numbers in your head
→ Get paid clearly and on time without chasing
→ Step away for a weekend without checking email
→ Have low energy weeks without panicking about money
→ Trust your systems enough to step away
Most clients with ADHD reclaim 10 or more hours each week without working faster.
Inside The Calm CEO Method, you learn how to...​
-
Close your laptop at a set time and stay offline for the night
→ Client messages are handled inside clear boundaries
→ Work does not spill into nights or weekends
→ The business continues running without you hovering
​

→ Tasks are matched to your energy and attention

​

​

→ Workload flexes without income collapsing
→ Systems hold things steady when capacity dips
→ Rest does not require justification or recovery afterward
​
This method blends nervous system regulation, cycle planning, money clarity,
and simple systems so your business can grow without costing you your clients, your health or your relationships.
The Calm CEO Method is offered in three ways, depending on how you learn best.​
Group Coaching
For women who move faster with accountability, shared momentum, and real-time support. You want structure, conversation, and the reassurance that you are not the only one navigating money decisions, boundaries, energy dips, and growth. Meets the 2nd & 4th Thursday of every month from 12:30 - 1:30p ET.
WHO'S THIS FOR?
​​
This is for the business owner who looks successful
on paper but feels stretched thin behind the scenes.
You care deeply about your work.
You are tired of feeling like rest has to be earned.
You know something needs to change.
You just want a way of working that your body
can actually sustain.
​
One where the back end of your business is organized so you complete client projects ahead of schedule and still get to the gym or home for bedtime.
I'm Katie Grimes!
I spent 20 years in corporate America, built multiple businesses, and grew a 550K international coaching company by doing everything the hard way at first.
​
Today, I help women build businesses that keep running without constant pressure.
​
I show you how to organize the back end of your business, regulate your nervous system, and make clear decisions without people pleasing or burnout.
So you can close your laptop at a normal hour, step away without things unraveling, and lead your business with clarity instead of exhaustion.
Not by doing more.
By building better.

I was stressed about how to get more clients and increase my pricing. Working with Katie, we focused on creating the ideal client experience while also setting boundaries and not overcomplicating things. She's always been there for support, helping me refocus when I wanted to do too much and reminding me of the possibilities ahead. She pushed me to believe in myself and charge what I’m worth."

WHAT MY CLIENTS ARE SAYING...
Don’t just take my word for it. Here’s what other women
who signed up to coach with me have said and experienced:
"Katie is a breath of fresh air. The positivity and energy she brings forward makes you can't help but smile and be hopeful about the future, no matter how bad a situation you may be in. She's not afraid to be vulnerable in order to help others and she's really great at helping you recognize your self worth."
