Kathleen Gage is the “no-nonsense, common sense” speaker, author, product creation specialist and owner of the highly successful company, “Power Up for Profits.” Kathleen helps entrepreneurs become profitable both online and off. Kathleen’s clients are driven by making a difference through their own unique voice.

Considered to be one of the nation’s most passionate speakers, Kathleen is known for cutting through the fluff and helping people to leave their sob stories behind, so they can stop focusing on the past and start looking towards the future.

She speaks and teaches about what she believes are the core elements of a successful life: accountability, integrity, honesty and living with passion and hope. This is not to say that Kathleen doesn’t know struggle. At the age of 25 she was homeless without a college degree. With no direction, no focus, and no true purpose, she wondered if she’d ever find a use for her life.

Following a spiritual awakening, she decided it was time to do something with her life and “come out of hiding.” This started an upward trajectory over 30 years ago leading to the creation of her first company, “Street Smarts Marketing” in 1994. Since then Kathleen has become a much sought after speaker and writer refusing to deliver what she calls “boring ass messages.”
