How Clarity and Culture Fuel 23 Years of Growth

Patricia Beitler is the Founder of Velocitas, a Miami-based marketing and PR agency that has spent over 23 years helping clients build brands, create targeted visibility, and grow their businesses through strategic marketing. She joins Access Your Leadership for a candid, insightful conversation about entrepreneurship, leadership evolution, and building a culture that people genuinely want to be part of.

Patricia shares how she went from a career in web development and government contracting to following her intuition and taking the leap into business ownership (and why listening to her gut has been one of her greatest leadership tools). From the early days of running every aspect of her agency alone to developing a tight-knit team culture that emphasizes responsiveness, professionalism, and genuine care, Patricia offers a transparent look at what it takes to grow a sustainable business without losing yourself along the way.

What does it look like to create a culture that makes employees choose to stay when they have other options? How do you balance moving fast with staying intentional about your values and standards? What role does authenticity play in your reputation as a leader and as a brand? Why is self-awareness so essential when you’re building something from the ground up? How can you be more selective about who you work with, and why does that make everything better for everyone? Patricia’s story is an inspiring reminder that leadership is as much about self-trust and clarity as it is about business strategy. Whether you’re an entrepreneur, an aspiring leader, or simply someone reflecting on what you really want, this episode is full of insights about building a business (and a life) that feels aligned.
