About

Hi, I’m Katie.

Mama of one unbelievably energetic toddler, born and raised in East Tennessee, so naturally I cheer for the Vols, listen to Morgan Wallen and LOVE Sweet Tea and Jesus. I’m so glad you’re here and I hope you’ll walk this journey with me!

I’ve spent most of my career as a licensed cosmetologist/salon manager focusing on others, whether it be a client of mine or a mentorship, so I sashayed into motherhood excitedly; I wish I would have known beforehand how isolated and unsupported life would feel after delivery.

Having a healthy child is always the priority and after having a mini upsetting what-could-be-serious finding during my anatomy scan (defect was outgrown and healed thank the Lord!) what about me? Fast forward three years and a divorce later I recognized how foreign I felt in my own skin.

I didn’t realize how necessary a creative outlet is for me until I felt like an Instant Pot without a pressure release valve. I had the idea to start a blog, or at least give it a chance, but I was so unbelievably hesitant, and overwhelmed honestly, to begin. I wanted to engage other people, like me, and create a community of true, raw, unfiltered life in every season and situation so we could all feel a little less isolated and heal and begin to enjoy every part of life again.

So, if you’ve made it this far, I truly hope we can learn from each other, laugh together, and feel a little (or a lot) less isolated through this chaotic, beautiful life.
