Catherine Manzewitsch
Catherine Manzewitsch is a seasoned speaker, coach, mentor, and pastor with more than 40 years of ministry and leadership experience. She is dedicated to empowering women over 50 to navigate life’s pivotal transitions—whether after divorce, an empty nest, career shifts, loss, or the quiet longing for renewed purpose. Drawing from her deep faith foundation and decades of guiding others, Catherine helps women rebuild confidence, embrace clarity, and step courageously into a life of meaningful impact.
Her mission is rooted in her own powerful transformation. After surviving a near-death experience, Catherine made a life-defining decision to stop living passively and start living with intention. This awakening ignited her passion to support women in reclaiming their identity, strengthening their mindset, and rediscovering God-given purpose. Through her signature 90-day mentorship, From Pivot to Purpose, she equips women to shift their perspective, strengthen resilience, rebalance priorities, and move from feeling stuck to living with spirit-led intention.
Beyond her coaching and pastoral leadership, Catherine is joyfully celebrating 41 years of marriage and is a proud mother of three and grandmother to one beloved grandson. Fluent in English and Spanish, she brings a culturally attuned and compassionate approach to her work. She is currently completing her MBA in Business Administration and Ministry at International VISION University (expected 2026). Outside of her calling, Catherine is an avid reader—often finishing two to three books a week—and enjoys swimming and spending precious time with her grandson, who continues to be one of her greatest inspirations.
