I’m Kat!
Welcome to my digital thinkspace! I appreciate you stopping by & I really hope you can find a connection within my shared experiences.
If you value a good, open & honest conversation about change, growth, ageing, rediscovering yourself and ‘the pause’, then you’ll feel right at home here!
I know there are so many amazing humans silently struggling with a range of emotions, experiences and events, and this is why I started my blog; because that’s how I felt.
I hope that sharing my own stories and thoughts about life will hopefully reach at least one of you so you can feel less alone and more supported.

I am a daughter, sister, aunty, wife, cousin, friend, kick-ass photographer, animal lover and people person.

how to improve your journey through life? learn!
The endless journey of learning about myself has been littered with so many revelations. Most of them are lightbulb moments of ‘whaaaaaaaat!!!’ whilst others are just like a sucker punch to the gut which both scenarios have left me in a state of flummox. My parents and their generation, most of them anyway, were not…
