We empower you to achieve your financial goals by delivering transparent and accurate financials that provide clarity and enable you to make informed decisions, ultimately building a profitable firm.
CathCap was founded in 2013 with a mission to provide top-tier CFO services to businesses of all sizes. Our founder, Brooke Lively, started CathCap to bridge the gap between financial expertise and business growth. Brooke’s journey from retail to finance, driven by personal experiences and professional challenges, laid the foundation for CathCap’s commitment to empowering businesses through strategic financial leadership.
Meet Our Founder
In 2012, Brooke Lively started developing tailored services to empower attorneys with financial knowledge and support to thrive in their ventures. But starting a business from scratch is no walk in the park. In 2015, Brooke faced a crucial turning point when she decided to part ways with her biggest client. Over the next 26 months, she encountered countless financial obstacles, draining her savings, maxing out credit cards, and refinancing her house. Brooke vividly remembers a defining moment during this period: withdrawing the maximum cash advance from an ATM late at night in a different part of town to avoid prying eyes.
The next morning, she walked into a bank, depositing that stack of twenties to ensure her team would be paid. This experience gave her firsthand knowledge of the financial pressures entrepreneurs and business owners face. With tenacity and unwavering belief in her mission, Brooke transformed Cathcap into a service that enables lawyers and entrepreneurs to scale their businesses profitably. A catalyst for profit, Cathcap shines as an expert in financial matters, empowering clients to achieve their goals and thrive in an ever-changing business landscape.

You all have been so critical to our success. I cannot say enough wonderful things about your overall model and the incredible Sarah (and of course our beloved Laura before her.)
You and your team have adapted to our needs and brought in new people for us that fit our business needs and growth perfectly.
I look forward to the calls each month. I find them helpful and productive. The information and discussions we have help me to make decisions. I like the problem-solving tools and discussions with Karen to make decisions and she takes the initiative to solve problems.
I hate meetings, but I actually look forward to my meetings with Jana because the information is valuable, digestible, and presented in a very interesting way.
The tactical advice has helped us clean up a lot of our issues.
Feedback is a gift – you aren’t going to hurt me with it. Hearing the truth from somebody who is not part of the firm and doesn’t have an agenda is invaluable.
Only work with Cathedral Capital if you want to be rich. Otherwise, you should continue without any clarity at all in your financials, hoping and praying for the best, and executing the plan you probably either don’t have or have not critically reviewed on a consistent basis.
I love that Jana holds us accountable and keeps us disciplined to make tough decisions. We don't like those decisions, but we need to make them and she helps us do that.
