About Kat

Most coaches finish their training feeling capable and ready. They’ve invested in learning their craft. They care deeply about the work they want to do. They’re ready to help people.

Then they sit down to build the business around that work and realise something important was never explained.

No one showed them how to set up the structure behind the scenes. How to organise clients. How to connect bookings to records. How to make emails trigger automatically. How to make the pieces work together instead of feeling scattered.

It isn’t a lack of ability. It’s that no one showed you how the pieces fit together. I have seen that pattern again and again.

Before I ever worked in tech, I trained in Hypnosis, Coaching, and NLP because I wanted to support meaningful change. When the training ended, I was excited and motivated. I also had no clear roadmap for building the business side of things. I did what many people do. I signed up for different platforms, watched tutorials, and tried to piece it all together myself.

What I eventually understood is that the problem was not effort. It was structure. I was building separate parts without understanding how they were meant to connect. Once I stepped back and learned how to build everything so it worked together as one system, the pressure eased. When bookings, client records, communication, and follow-up are connected properly, you stop operating in reaction mode. You begin making decisions from a place of clarity.

Over time, it became obvious that this is where my strengths sit. I can take something that looks complicated and turn it into a few clear steps. I can sit with someone’s half-formed ideas and help them shape those ideas into something practical and structured. Brainstorming is not about throwing out random concepts. It is about identifying what matters and removing what does not.

That is the work I do now.

I help coaches build businesses that are organised, connected, and designed to support growth rather than create stress. I am not interested in adding more tools for the sake of it.

My vision is to see my clients become even more successful than they imagine. That only happens when the foundation underneath their business is solid.

Part of my mission is making sure you build that foundation properly from the start. When you’re inside the Simplify Your Tech ecosystem, your systems expand with you as your business grows. You’re not wasting time, money, or energy moving platforms or rebuilding everything later. You build it once, and it supports you long term.

Before this chapter of my career, I spent more than fifteen years in live theatre as a Lighting Designer and Production Stage Manager. Theatre looks seamless from the audience. Behind the scenes, it runs on timing, coordination, and structure. Every cue matters. Every piece has a place. When the structure is sound, the experience feels effortless.

Business works the same way.

When your systems are built properly, your clients experience consistency. You experience clarity. Decisions become simpler because the foundation is solid.

My values are simplicity, integrity, empowerment, and genuine connection. I do not believe in hype or pressure. I believe in thinking things through properly, building them once, and building them well.

If your business currently feels more like a collection of tools than a connected system, that is not a reflection of your capability. It simply means no one has helped you design it from the ground up.

That is where I come in.

About Simplify Your Tech

Simplify Your Tech was founded in February 2023, by Kat Milner.

Often new practitioners and business owners are excited about their new skills and to launch their new business. After their training ends, they’re sent out to get clients and change the world. However, when you get home, you realise you have no idea how to begin to get clients, set up a business, and are at a loss of what to do next.

I’ve been there. After completing Hypnosis training and NLP Practitioner training, it felt like as soon as the shingle was hung out, the world would beat a path to my door, wanting me to help make their lives better. Instead, there was frustration after frustration trying to market my services, and only getting clients here and there.

I also found that one of the biggest things that I struggled with - and others that commiserate with me - was the technology I needed to set up and use in my business.

I'd get lost down "rabbit holes" of research, for things people kept telling me I needed for my business. Different email scheduling tools, email platforms, course platforms, event platforms - it was all so overwhelming that I just didn't know what to do, so I would just put it off for another day.

One day, I took the "bull by the horns" (as my Mother would say), and jumped in. I looked at my research, made choices about what would be the best programs for me, and learned how to get it all set up and integrated. Along the way, I started showing others how to do the same, and discovered I really enjoyed the teaching - and simplifying the process - for others.

My mission (and my passion) is to help Coaches & Solopreneurs focus on what they do best - without worrying about setting up things that only need to be done once. And to support them to learn to do those things you will need to handle regularly (like email sequences and landing pages) so that ultimately, they will create a sustainable, successful business and feel like they are having a meaningful impact not only on their own life, but in the lives of their family and clients.

Plus, in addition to all of the practical steps, we work on mindset. Banishing the feeling that you're "not good at tech", and empowering you to know you can handle every part of your business.
