About me

WELCOME!

I’m Kadena Tate.

Business model designer. Revenue strategist. Creator of 50 Shades of Paid.
Architect of elegant subscription ecosystems that help high-integrity entrepreneurs scale—without selling out or burning out.

For the past 15+ years, I’ve helped service providers like you turn your intellectual property into recurring revenue:
Memberships. Communities. Licensing. Curation. Access. Replenishment.
Custom-designed models that feel as good to deliver as they do to receive.

My philosophy is simple:
We don’t chase growth.
We design for sustainability.

We build business models that renew instead of deplete.
That nourish your clients and support your life.

You’ve built something beautiful.

Now it’s time to build something that lasts.

You’ve reached multiple six figures. You’re not new to this. You’ve mastered your craft. You know how to deliver results.

But deep down, you also know:
You’re at capacity. You want more consistency. More peace. More predictability.
Not by working harder.
By working smarter—with structure, systems, and strategy that reflect the level you’re really playing at.

That’s where I come in.

And I will teach you how to build a business that pays you well, honors your values, and frees your time.

Because that’s what you’ve earned. And that’s what’s possible now.

Let’s build your next chapter—together.

  • Society says a woman's goal should be a good wife and mother. Kadena saw a different potential—a millionaire businesswoman. With her guidance, I shattered ceilings I didn't even know existed. I'm living proof of the power of redefining roles.

    — Arletha Kent

  • I've always known I had gifts, but Kadena taught me about the power that comes with them. Embracing this power has not just transformed my business; it's reshaped my entire life. Thanks to Kadena, I'm not just thriving; I'm leading with purpose.

    -LaTonda McQueen

  • I once thought being agreeable was the ticket to success, but Kadena taught me a valuable lesson: I am not for everyone, and that's okay. Learning to rise above criticism and praise alike has freed me to focus on what truly matters.

    — Beverly Stuart

  • I was taught "success leaves clues." Following in others' footsteps felt like the safe path until Kadena illuminated a different way—carving my own lane. This mindset has led to unprecedented success, all on my terms. I'm forever grateful.

    — Lillian Brown

  • Before Kadena, I viewed the world through a lens of scarcity, constantly worried about the next dollar. She transformed my mindset and my business, showing me how to create wealth in a way that honors both myself and those I serve. It was a game-changer.
