I try to do at least one thing a day to get out of my comfort zone. And often that looks like me having a pep talk with myself remembering that life doesn’t have to look how it looked a week ago, a month ago, year ago, etc.
.

Better late than never! Here is Charlie’s 8-month picture💛she is so curious + squirmy these days, so this was the best pic we could get!

Holding these babies even tighter today. Praying for the families who lost their dear ones over the weekend. I can’t even begin to comprehend the pain they are experiencing. My heart breaks for them😢

One of you needs to hear this today.
.
✖️Stop chasing your tail
.
✖️Stop trying to figure it all out
.
✖️Stop asking everyone and their mother what they think
.
Instead, get quiet and listen to what that voice is telling you within. And if it’s not saying anything today, keep listening until it does.
.
I believe that Gods timing is always the right timing. T R U S T the process🙏🏼

Ever feel like God where are you? Did you forget about little old me? When are you coming through?
.
Just know there is ALWAYS a reason. My bestie @alexgill always says “rejection is God’s protection”.
.
TRUST that what’s happening (or not happening) right now is all part of his perfect plan🙏🏼Ok?
.
Love you! Can you do me a favor today? And tag someone who needs some encouragement or could just use some celebrating in the comments below! Life is HARD, and this is what girlfriends are for👇🏼👇🏽👇🏾👇🏿

XO Kate

Today I had two yellow butterflies fly past me. The yellow butterfly symbolizes hope, guidance and prosperity. Today is also the day I decided to reopen my therapy practice.
.
Three years ago this month I found out I was pregnant with our first. Although I was excited, I was even more nervous wondering how I could make this all work. I had four months of pretty much being bedridden with nausea. I panicked and knew if it felt this hard pregnant, it might possibly be this hard with a newborn. I was at a crossroads. I had a therapy practice AND an online coaching business that had exploded (in a good way) those last six months. I wanted to be there for my new baby and I knew I couldn’t do both—brick and mortar therapy and online coaching. So I chose what made the most sense for our new family at that time— transitioning out of the therapy practice. I had a feeling Annabelle was going to arrive a month early, so I wrapped up with clients, took down my sign, and handed in the keys a few weeks before she made her grand arrival.
.
The last 27 months have been a wild ride, but a life giving one. We now have two babies, we moved and renovated a fixer upper, I published a book and am writing my second, and most recently, my husband opened an eatery. It’s been a joy filled 27 months, but to be perfectly honest, the last six after returning from maternity, I’ve been struggling. The only way to explain it is that every time I’ve attempted to jump back into my coaching business, something has knocked me off my feet. Babies getting sick, me getting sick, household matters needing my attention, and loads and loads of book edits. I’ve said it many times, that I felt like God was trying to tell me something, but I couldn’t quite figure out what that something was......until two days ago.
.
Looking back, I can see all the little signs that have been dropped at my feet, which at the time, I wasn’t ready to receive. I had even caught myself saying and thinking things as though going back to my practice would never be an option.

REST IS IN THE COMMENTS👇🏼

Tag your five!!!👇🏼👇🏽👇🏾👇🏿

I don’t know where the time goes! This is ANNABELLE at exactly the same age at Charlie, just 19 months ago. I chatted with someone yesterday about my journey of getting my LCSW to where I am in business today. As she was asking q’s, I began to look back at that past scared Kate. I felt so much gratitude for the chances that she took.
.
Remember, it all happens LITTLE BY LITTLE. It’s so easy for someone to see where we are today and think “she just got lucky”. I do feel lucky that past, scared Kate somehow found the courage to do it anyway. People always ask, so here’s a little timeline:
.
✔️2010 graduate from Columbia U with my MSW
.
✔️2010-2013 job hopped in search of the one that set my soul on fire
.
✔️2013 got married, bought our first fixer upper, and went for my Post Masters in Addictions to hopefully qualify me for a better job (at this time I was making $16 an hour as an LMSW)
.
✔️Spring 2014 passed my second boards (LCSW) and began researching private practice
.
✔️Fall 2014 opened my practice, had 2 client the first two months, by month 3 had 12+ and was making more money in one days work doing what I LOVED as Mon-Fri at my DRAINING 9-5.
.
✔️Winter 2014 began selling @chloeandisabel in addition to help bring in a little more cushion and before Christmas quit my 9-5
.
✔️2015 full + thriving practice. Began consulting and by the end of the year began coaching other business owners through confidence and sales
.
✔️2016 ran both businesses, but completely overworked myself until I found out I was pregnant
.
✔️2017 closed therapy practice to prepare for arrival of baby! Coached from home and began writing my book
.
✔️2018 right before signing with my book agent, found out baby #2 was on the way! Found the most amazing publisher who gave me, not one, but a DOUBLE book deal. Contract signed right before baby’s #2 arrived! Also launched a podcast that hit the top 100 charts for marketing and management!
.
✔️2019 wrote book, opened restaurant with hubs, mothering 2 babies, and launching @hermorningdose Podcast with biz bestie!
.
Now ladies, this all began almost 10 years ago. It was hard work, but it’s laid the foundation for business today.
