A Woman on Purpose with Catherine McGuire Messy & Glorious
-
- Mental Health
Catherine McGuire now in her 50’s first dipped her toe into entrepreneurship aged 25 purchasing her first investment property, but it was a change in personal circumstances that fully focused her ambition. Aged 46, Catherine found herself in an impossible place with her life imploding around her – with zero income, no savings or pension and about to lose her home. As a full-time carer to her youngest daughter, who was chronically ill, it wasn’t simply a case of knuckling down and getting a ‘job.’
One Saturday afternoon she was sat at her computer, and a little sign flashed in the corner of the screen saying ‘Do you want to learn how to be a property investor?’ Well, she said; “Yes actually, I did!”
Catherine already knew many wealthy people, all of whom had property portfolios. It struck a chord. So, with some property experience herself already, Catherine forged ahead. This wasn’t without self-sacrifice as it meant Catherine had to move out of her family home and in with her “amazingly supportive parents.” It wasn’t easy, but it was the beginning of her full-time venture into the property from which she hasn’t looked back. Within 18 months of her Mentorship training, Catherine had done it – she was finally, financially free.
Catherine set up her Consultancy in 2014 helping her now international client base to grow UK property portfolios and Mentors women (and some heart centred men!) all over the world in business as a Breakthrough Mentor, which she loves! It made complete sense for her to help others do what she had achieved, and she is very proud of her clients’ huge success.
She’s gone on to launch new businesses over the last five years and recently launched Rise Wise Woman with a business partner to create courses for women in business encompassing the full circle of business from Launch and Leverage to Exiting business.
It’s a passion project that’s already helping so many women.
When she’s not running her property empire or mentoring the next generation of entrepreneurs, Catherine enjoys nothing more than working towards her goal of planting 1000 trees with time spent outdoors planting trees and wildflower meadows.
Catherine is living proof of just what is possible, even when the chips are down.

Don’t chase an ordinary life, create an extraordinary life.
