Biography

Cathy Heller is a fire hose of inspiration. She’s the host of the popular podcast The Cathy Heller Show (formerly Don’t Keep Your Day Job), which was given the #1 spot on iTunes recommend list of shows for the New Year in 2018 and 2019.

Each week Cathy encourages thousands and thousands of listeners to find more purpose in their life and get paid to do what they love full time. She started out as a singer songwriter and first found success licensing her music to TV, Film and Ads. Quickly she became a stand out in her field and was featured in magazines like Billboard, Variety and the LA Weekly.

After making a multi six figure living with her music, Cathy started a music agency and then she began teaching other artists to grow their own careers.

Two weeks after her third daughter was born, she started her top ranked podcast. Cathy’s show has been featured in Forbes, Entrepreneur Magazine, HuffPost, Business Insider the NY Times and Inc Magazine’s “top 9 podcasts”, and has over 25 million downloads. She’s been featured several times by Apple themselves and the fans are resonating with how genuine she is.

Throughout the show, she has interviewed creative entrepreneurs like actor Matthew McConaughey, actress Jenna Fischer, popular blogger Seth Godin, celebrity cook Rachael Ray, designer Jonathan Adler, make up artist Bobbi Brown, NYT author Malcolm Gladwell, actor Rob Lowe, Oscar winning producer Brian Grazer, singer songwriter Jason Mraz, fashionista Tamara Mellon, Shark Tank’s Barbara Corcoran, psychologist Adam Grant, Starbucks’s Howard Schultz, and Gretchen Rubin to name a few.

Cathy’s book was released in November 2019 with Macmillan. It’s filled with inspirational stories from people within her own tribe who have decided to take control of their life’s journey. Her book goes into detail about how to find the work you were meant to do, how to grow your business, and level up your quality of life all around. 

She is a phenomenal leader for creative entrepreneurs and she’s helping people everywhere find a deeper sense of purpose and add their gifts to the world. When she’s not teaching or interviewing amazing guests for her podcast, you can find Cathy playing with her three little girls, writing her book, songwriting for tv shows and commercials, or enjoying a moment with friends.

Cathy often says “purpose is the opposite of depression” and she is truly lifting others to be the happiest version of themselves.
