the face behind the grit

Kate Corfield didn’t just enter the fitness industry; she built her career from the ground up. From front-of-house roles to designing national concepts and building fitness and wellness spaces from scratch, Kate’s seen every corner of the industry. She’s been in the weeds fixing broken systems and she’s sat at the board table shaping strategy and pitching for investment. That battle-tested knowledge spans high-end boutique studios to stripped back, no-frills gyms.

That perspective is exactly why Grace & Grit exists. Kate understands how leadership decisions land at every level of a business, and she’s built a service for those who value integrity, high standards, and impact. She works on a simple principle: better-run businesses create better experiences, making movement accessible and appealing to more people.

If you’re a founder or leader who values results over fluff, Kate is the partner who gets it done.
