Hiii! I’m Kate.

I’ve lived many lives and worn many hats - entrepreneur, digital marketer, business strategist, and now, life coach.

More importantly, I am a child of God, His khayil and warrior princess.

I am a multi-passionate with many identities - a sister, a daughter, a friend, a skater, a climber, a guide, a teacher. I believe that we were made to be fully human (everything is included), with an identity rooted in Christ.

LIFE IS GOOD BECAUSE OF THESE NON-NEGOTIABLES

Damn good coffee. Freedom. Integrity. Forest bathing. Courage. Curiosity. Surfskating. Love. Purpose. Rockclimbing. Connection. Discovering the best food spots. Joy. Making things beautiful.

Life is an adventure, and I wake up each day ready to embrace magic and beauty. I desire the same for you.

This story matters because it has shaped my work and who I am today.

This is a story about how I rediscovered myself and uncovered a deep hunger to change the world with love.

In 2020, as the world fell into a global pandemic, I fell into my dark night of the soul - one of the most defining periods filled with the deepest grief and despair. I was forced into a cocoon for 3 years, where my old being was completely disintegrated, and I metamorphosized into a new person.

I first met my ex-husband, J, when I was 6. We reconnected at a class gathering in 2012. It was a whirlwind coupled with a dark storm when we met again as adults. My desperate need for love and to be loved threw me into a dysfunctional relationship with him. I couldn’t spend a single day without him, and I ignored all the red flags. He had a serious addiction and deep self-hatred. Despite good moments, our relationship was fraught with lies, emotional abuse, gaslighting, theft, and more.

In January 2020, 4 years after we were married, J left the country and disappeared from the face of the earth.

My world came to a halt and shut down. I was forced into lockdown by the pandemic and had to face a deep emptiness. I had completely lost touch with who I was. I was riddled with self-doubt, and could barely trust my own thoughts and words. I had no sense of self. I had built my worth on my relationship with J and his family. I was known as “J’s Kate” or “J’s wife” for almost 11 years. Confused and fearful, I carried a deep sense of shame and guilt, unable to turn to family or friends. My days were filled with tears of anguish and pain.

In the midst of that, I turned to the only thing I could trust - God. Without Him, I would have truly given up on my life.

I had no other choice but to rebuild my life in solitude. I learned to prioritize and care for myself - physically, mentally, and emotionally.

On this journey of healing, rediscovery, and rebuilding, I chanced upon the co-active coaching model, and its key concept that people are whole, creative, and resourceful deeply resonated with me, as I believe that is how God made and sees each of us.

I signed up for the training and was hooked from day one. My own personal healing was elevated and deepened. I learned to love myself, trust my own voice, respect my values, and recover all that I had lost over the last 11 years.

In January 2022, just as the world began to open up, and just as I started to gain confidence in myself - J came back with another woman and a baby.

For the first time in our relationship, I drew an extremely clear boundary for myself. I gave him my terms to make our marriage work.

He said no.

I decided to choose myself and what was best for me. I could no longer save someone else at my own expense. I could no longer give away parts of me to hold space for someone else.

I filed for divorce.

I discovered a deep desire to share my healing with others who felt the same way I had - unseen, unheard, unloved.

I want to shower others with hope and love and support them on their journey of discovering, accepting, and loving themselves.

This was a story about how I recovered myself and learned to love, accept and embrace ME. It is a story about how I claimed control over my life’s story, and how I chose the next chapter in my book.

I present myself to you - whole, creative, and resourceful, filled with immense joy, gratitude, and peace. Scars healed, yet showing - all parts of my past, present, and future self - included.

The fact that I living, standing, heart beating, and hopeful - is a testimony of His goodness and grace.

What’s your story?

Are we vibing?

I believe that self-growth and coaching should be authentic, magical, and exciting. If you’re in need of change and expansion in your life, I’m here and ready to soar with you.
