Alright – so today we’ve got the honor of introducing you to Kate Ziuz. We think you’ll enjoy our conversation, we’ve shared it below.
Kate, so good to have you with us today. We’ve always been impressed with folks who have a very clear sense of purpose and so maybe we can jump right in and talk about how you found your purpose?
I didn’t find my purpose in a breakthrough moment — I uncovered it piece by piece, every time I ignored the pressure to prove and followed the pull to be fully myself.
I had built a successful career in tech and advisory, but something felt off. I was surrounded by brilliant women still questioning their value, and I realized — I was doing the same. That quiet disconnect sparked a deeper question: What would it look like to feel powerful and fully expressed at the same time?
I found the answer in movement. Teaching high heels dance classes showed me what presence could do. I watched women transform — not just how they walked, but how they showed up. That’s when it clicked. My purpose wasn’t just to help women feel confident. It was to help them embody their power.
That’s what Master Your Presence is built on — the belief that when a woman’s presence matches her power, everything changes.
Appreciate the insights and wisdom. Before we dig deeper and ask you about the skills that matter and more, maybe you can tell our readers about yourself?
I’m the founder of Master Your Presence, a coaching practice designed to help high-achieving women elevate how they show up — without hardening who they are.
I work with executives, entrepreneurs, creatives, and pageant winners. These are women who already have the credentials, the voice, and the capability. What we refine is their presence. Because when your body language, energy, and self-presentation are fully aligned, people don’t just hear you — they feel you.
What makes my work special is that it blends leadership, performance, and body language. We’re not chasing confidence. We’re cultivating presence as a skill — one that changes how you enter every room, lead every conversation, and claim every opportunity.
For me, this work is deeply personal. I know what it feels like to question your presence in a room, and I know the shift that happens when that doubt turns into power. Helping women step into that transformation is not just what I do. It is who I am.
If you had to pick three qualities that are most important to develop, which three would you say matter most?
1. Trying new things made me resilient
Growth does not happen through repetition. It happens through new experiences. Each time I stepped into the unfamiliar, whether it was moving to a new country, changing careers, or teaching dance for the first time, I expanded not just my skills but my sense of self. Trying new things built my adaptability, sharpened my instincts, and taught me how to trust myself in the unknown.
2. Communicating with clarity and intention
Confidence is often mistaken for volume or boldness, but the real skill is being able to communicate with clarity and presence. I have learned how to distill my message, hold space with my voice and body, and lead with energy that matches my intention. These are skills I now teach other women because when you know how to express your value with precision, you no longer need to prove it.
3. Presence as a skill
Presence is not something you are born with. It is something you build. I learned how to translate internal confidence into external presence through body language, voice, and movement. That process transformed how I lead, speak, and connect, and now it is the foundation of my coaching practice.
My advice?
When you learn to lead with clarity and express yourself with intention, your presence does the work for you. It opens doors, builds trust, and leaves a lasting impression — often before you say a single word.
Who is your ideal client or what sort of characteristics would make someone an ideal client for you?
My ideal client is already powerful — but she’s ready to be unforgettable.
She’s the woman who has the résumé, the results, the reputation. But she knows something’s still missing when she walks into a room or steps onto a stage. She wants to command attention, not chase it. To feel elegant, not perform strength. To lead, not just contribute.
She knows she is meant to be more than impressive. She is ready to be unforgettable. And that is exactly who my ideal client is.
