About Me: Kate

Hey girl! I'm 21 years young and live in NYC. I'm a History and English major, who is looking to go to Law school. You can say that I want to be the next Elle Woods, except less blonde. I'm a major foodie and always looking for a good pie. My go to shows are Parks and Rec and The Office because they make me laugh and cry. I'm an avid reader and love ReeseWitherspoon's book club.


My goal in life is to help those around me and hopefully with this platform I will get to do so!

Mother and daughter relationships are sometimes tough. However, when your mother is around, but consistently absent this is extremely difficult to manage. My parents got divorced when I was 4, my Mom then married my stepdad when I was 5, but alcohol always seemed to be more important to her then what was going on with me. My Mom always had random mood swings that would throw me off also, sometimes when I was just casually trying talk to her she would get so upset with me and then ask me to go get her a beer. Thankfully my Dad and my stepdad were very active and involved figures in my life which I am so thankful for, there could never be enough words to explain. However, I remember in high school attending a psychology informational forum about bi-polar and knew immediately my Mom fit that. I tried to talk to her about that but she ignored me and was in denial. Later I remember reading a book about multiple personality disorder, which my Mom fit into and I tried to discuss with her, onc...

Being without him meant there was no me. Being without him meant I couldn’t go on with my life. I had to be with him to grow, I needed a future with him. I had to make sure he was on track with his school work. I had to do his school work. I had to cook for him, clean his room, and be there for every emotional problem he had. And then when he no longer needed me or had no use for me, he threw me aside like garbage and came back a month or two later when he would need me again. For four years in a row, my heart was played with and he covered his reasoning with “love.” “I do this because I love you, i track you because i love you, i don’t let you hang out with your friends because i love you, I argue with you about guys looking at you because I love y...

The idea of self-love has always been a complex subject for me to wrap my head around. I mean it sounds like something so simple and you would think the basis of our existence on this earth would be to love the one and only definite thing that we’ll ever know—ourselves. Unfortunately, for many, including myself, the journey to self-love hasn’t always been so kind. As a sexual and emotional abuse survivor finding myself was not always something that I knew I needed to do. However, the past few years have made me so grateful for the “body positive” movement because it has challenged me to destroy negative body image ideals that I once had. With tremendous weight gain during high school followed by tremendous weight loss after the end of a toxic 5 year relationship and then the regain of weight upon entering a healthy relationship all the while battling high anxiety and depression, my idea of what a “beautiful body” was was very skewed. Watching other women truly put their whole selves, “...
