I am so blessed to have been following your journey. I love your inner spirit and for so long seeing your ig posts was the number one reason popped on ig . I related and never encountered someone I could connect to as being pathologized for so long. I feel like u hugged me after each post and said : You are no alone . We are in this together. All u did today is an accomplishment and dance through it and allow yourself to feel it all . Celebrate and honor yourself . I felt you self soothed be and helped me feel less judgemental. I miss u and wish I could give u the small amount of money . I am on ssid and it is tough with anorexia and recently having colon removed . I still draw strength from your dancing and raw truth talks . I am grateful for u 💓 and I am sending you love and light lovely - Eryn from nyc

Thank you so much Kate, and welcome Amy and Susan! The idea of trying to heal in isolation hits at the heart of it for me, and I know it’s a stumbling block for me, and I’m hoping to learn how to engage in community as I know it will help me far more 💜

" You find the people who get you. The ones who don’t ask you to shrink or hide your hurt." This is so vital, and I need that more than ever!

Kate, thank you for being you. I am 24 years old. I first found your content when you were featured on a buzzfeed article or something of the like for "positive influencers" and my depressed suicidal 12 year old self was drawn to you from that day and still is till now. I've never stopped checking in. Your raw honesty is what keeps me close. Your authenticity vibes at a frequency that very few people on this earth have the courage to reveal to others let alone themselves. It's something so beautiful it INSPIRES me to keep living my life in all the messiness that comes along with it and be okay with that because that is what life is... and that is what you've shown me all these years. That life is supposed to be messy and each time you pick yourself up off the ground and allow yourself to be brave.. you prove to yourself that you are worth living for. Thank you for living this messy life alongside me Kate & let the journey continue!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I hope you have a beautiful day✨

I’m so excited about being part of this. As I commented a few weeks ago, I think “healing” is just another way of being human — everyone is healing from something all the time, although the triggers might change and different skills are appropriate a various moments, it never stops, only changes. That being said, along with caring for myself and this community, I hope to gain some insight on parenting an adult son who struggles as well.
