We had the good fortune of connecting with kat zammuto and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi kat, what is the most important factor behind your success?
The most important important factor for sure is persistence; being an entrepreneur/business owner is not easy by any means and it is a way paved with obstacles. The fact that I believe in myself and my projects wholeheartedly always keeps me going even in the hardest times.
I also think we are only successful if we pursue something we truly truly love doing because our clients/audience notices that and this is what creates a bond. I am driven by passion for sure in everything I do.
Last but not least, ignore the critics because when you are doing your own thing everyone has something to say so i think following my gut works really well for me. Every no I get is just more fuel to my fire to keep going.

Alright, so let’s move onto what keeps you busy professionally?
I am HALF FRENCH AND HALF BRAZILIAN,
AND HAVE LIVED IN THE US ALMOST HER ENTIRE LIFE.
I GREW UP IN CA, AND STARTED WORKING IN THE ENTERTAINMENT AND MODELING INDUSTRIES AT A THE EARLY AGE OF FOUR
(MY DAD WAS A TV AND VIDEO PRODUCER).
THIS LIFE LONG EXPERIENCE WITH VIDEO AND PHOTOGRAPHY MADE ME HER SUPER COMFORTABLE IN FRONT OF THE CAMERA, AND MADE ME AN ARTIST WITH A PASSION FOR MULTIPLE CREATIVE FIELDS.
AFTER A 14 YEAR MARRIAGE WITH SOMEONE WHO WAS NOT SUPPORTIVE OF MY WORK, I STARTED MY LIFE OVER AND DECIDED I WAS GOING TO PURSE EVERYTHING I LOVE DOING WITH A PASSION – SO ABOUT FIVE YEARS AGO I STARTED MY PR/MARKETING AGENCY WHICH NOW HAS CLIENTS ALL OVER THE WORLD AND I ALSO STARTED A
PODCAST CALLED KAT ON THE LOOSE -SEX, DATING & RELATIONSHIPS WHICH IS GROWING A HUGE AND LOYAL FOLLOWING WORLDWIDE WITH OVER
100K DOWNLOADS PER EPISODE .
I AM VERY PROUD OF KAT ON THE LOOSE BECAUSE I FEEL I AM GIVING VOICE TO WOMEN ALL OVER THE WORLD TO GO AFTER THEIR DREAMS AND BE FINANCIALLY INDEPENDENT – AND MY MESSAGE IS THAT IT IS NEVER TOO LATE TO START OVER.
I HAVE TO SAY NOTHING WAS EASY BY ANY MEANS – BUILDING MY BUSINESSES FROM SCRATCH HAS BEEN A MAJOR MAJOR UPHILL BATTLE AND BELIEVE ME, I GET A LOT OF “NOS”
I OVERCOME CHALLENGES BY THINKING ABOUT ONE DAY AT A TIME AND ONE STEP AT A TIME, AND DON’T REALLY LET REJECTION AFFECT ME – EVERY SINGLE NO I GET I USE AS A MENTAL LOG OF WOOD THAT ADS FULE TO MY FIRE. I ALSO CELEBRATE EVERY SMALL SUCCESS AND SET SMALL GOALS TO MYSELF. I THINK IT IS IMPORTANT TO SAY THAT NOBODY BECOMES SUCCESSFUL BY QUITTING OR THINKING IT WILL BE QUICK AND EASY, SO THE KEY IS TO KEEP PUSHING HARD, NO MATTER HOW FRUSTRATED OR TIRED YOU MAY BE. IT IS THE OLD SAYING, IF YOU ARE TIRED GET SOME REST, BUT NEVER EVER QUIT.
THE MSOT IMPORTANT THING I LOVE PEOPLE TO KNOW ABOUT ME AND MY WORK IS THAT I AM LIVING PROOF THAT WOMEN CAN START THEIR LIVES OVERF AT ANY AGE, BEGIN FROM ZERO AGAIN, AND BUILD AMAZING SUCCESSFUL CAREERS AND MAKE ALL THEIR DREAMS COME TRUE. IT IS NEVER EVEN TOO LATE OR IMPOSSIBLE AND WE SHOULD NEVER LET ANYONE TELLS US THAT WE CANNOT DO SOMETHING – BECAUSE I REALLY BELIEVE WE CAN ACHIEVE INCREDIBLE THINGS WHEN WE BELIEVE IN OURSELVES.

If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
