WELCOME FRIEND!
HEY, I’M KATE!
As a wife, mom of three and a small business owner, I know that life can feel like it is flying by at a crazy speed. And that there is no time to take care of me and fill up my own cup. I know what it feels like to just merely survive the days ahead of you instead of thriving in the season that you are in.
Between everyday pressures, childhood trauma I hadn’t worked through, grief and a pandemic I felt myself fading fast in 2020. When I finally admitted how burnt out and exhausted I was I went on a journey towards healing - physically, mentally and emotionally.
I realized that I went from losing myself in motherhood to losing myself in ministry and it was time to take back the reigns!
On the other side of survival I have found purpose, joy and intentional focus switching the mode and truly enjoying the life I have been given. And I want that for you too!
It has become my passion to help other women confront their burn out and create healthy boundaries, rhythms and healing so they can live the life they want, everyday! Whether this means chasing big business dreams, being a stay at home mom, having a part time job, volunteering somewhere you are passionate about or anything else in between you deserve to go after your dreams/goals with passion, purpose and health!
FAVORITE FOOD?
Give me all the tacos and spicy pineapple margarita’s please!
DREAM VACATION?
Gosh, my heart is always in a state of wanderlust. Any vacay is good to me!
FAVORITE COLOR?
I go through seasons with colors but pink will always be a fav!
FAVORITE SHOW?
Grey’s Anatomy forever and forever, I could watch it 100 times and never get sick of it!
FAVORITE SOCIAL PLATFORM
Instagram all day erryday. I also really love and read blogs daily!
FAVORITE HOBBIES
I love to read (romance or thrillers), boating/being on the water and shopping!
LEARN MORE ABOUT KATE
Hi friend, welcome to my little corner of the internet - I’m so glad you’re here!
I am a wife (my hubby, Joe) + mom of three (Camren, Savannah + Paisley) living and chasing my dreams in sunny southwest Florida. We have lived up and down the east coast but our hearts belong in palm tree paradise where we can be outdoors all year long. We have a sweet Goldendoodle named Oakley who joined our family as a pandemic puppy because you know, we didn’t have enough to juggle with full time jobs and virtual school! 😆
I’m an enneagram 1, extroverted-introvert who loves Jesus, reading and time spent at the beach. I have a serious case of wanderlust and am always planning my next vacation, and the one after that one too! When my nails are done I feel like I can conquer anything and I desire to leave this world a little better than the way I found it. I have a passion for empowering women, helping them realize their worth and encouraging them to chase their dreams! I am a firm believer in community, self-care and celebrating the little moments in life.
After years spent in the medical field, real estate, full-time ministry and a short stint of being a SAHM, I decided to take a chance on myself and go after my own wild dreams and open up an online boutique (Shop Rooted and Free). Combining my love of clothes and shopping with my passion for bringing women together I strive to create a space where women can find clothing that fits their everyday lives and gives them the confidence to tackle whatever the day throws at them.
While I love owning and operating my boutique, I couldn’t help but feel like something was missing and that something was my passion for connecting women, coaching and leadership development. Born out of that passion, I started this blog and site as a resource for women who want to create healthy boundaries, rhythms and everyday moments that come together to create a life they are proud of and love. I also enjoy sharing my love for essential oils and wellness too after my own crash and burn health journey where I learned to prioritize my health and become the gate keeper to my home.
Whoever said you have to stick to doing one thing….they lied girlfriend…go after all.those.dreams! 👏🏻
My hope is that this space inspires you to live your life exactly the way you want to, whatever that looks like for you! I hope that you feel empowered to take control of your health + happiness, that you boldly step into your dreams even when they scare you and that you feel confident along the way.
Friends, we get to live the life we’ve always wanted, lets lock arms and cheer each other on! My promise here is to always show the messy middle, the life in between motherhood, marriage and running multiple businesses…guess what? It ain’t always glamorous or fun, but, it is always worth it!
