The

Gutsy

Mission

Small business owners don’t usually get access to the kinds of strategies big corporations use to grow fast and scale smart. And that’s a huge part of why so many stay stuck and grow slow. I work with those corporate giants—I know what works. And I take those same strategies and translate them into practical, personal, doable solutions for business owners. So you can grow with intention, be more proactive, and finally reclaim your time. It takes guts to grow like a real company—so let’s get Gutsy together.

About Chrystina Katz

For Chrystina Katz, Gutsy was born in the in-between moments—when life and business demanded something more.

It showed up during the Great Recession when she lost her job, her home, and her sense of security—and chose to rebuild anyway.

It showed up after a traumatic accident left her unable to walk—and she refused to let that diagnosis define her future.

And it showed up again when she left a 30-year career in corporate leadership to build a business that aligned with who she truly was.

Through it all, Chrystina discovered what it means to lead with resilience, clarity, and guts. Today, she brings that same energy to business owners, entrepreneurs, and leadership teams who are ready to scale smart, lead strong, and create success on their own terms. With three businesses under her belt, six certifications, and decades of experience working with top corporations, Chrystina bridges the gap between big-business strategy and small-business execution.

Her work is practical, bold, and rooted in results—and her message is clear:
You don’t have to stay stuck. You can pivot. You can lead. You can grow—and you don’t have to do it alone.

Chrystina built her brand to help others do the same.
Gutsy isn’t about being fearless. It’s about doing it anyway.
And that’s the kind of transformation she helps leaders unlock every day.

What Others Are Saying

“Chrystina was an asset to our Amplify Montana Speakers Bureau classes in Bozeman. She went above and beyond by not only facilitating our public speaking workshops, but she also spent extra time outside of the workshops to help us assess and modify our curriculum while making improvements. Chrystina’s energy, enthusiasm, and inclusivity made our workshops successful, and many of our members cited learning from Chrystina to be a major highlight of their overall experience.”

“I can’t thank you enough! It was absolutely amazing and life changing! I definitely enjoyed working with you. I have been setting up my relax/mediation space as well. I have to admit I have gone down the Joe Dispenza rabbit hole though and been watching and listening to his other videos and as you mentioned how he links the science so it all makes sense. I have Becoming Supernatural on my list of books to read. I have also been sharing videos with James because he also likes to watch and is trying to reprogram himself and be better.”

"In fact, many of the tips/tricks out there to cope with this are all things you already worked with me on during our coaching sessions. I’m very grateful for our time together and just wanted to share with you the positive impact your coaching has made in my life."
