Nice to meet you
AUTHOR, COACH, & CREATIVE SPECIALIST
Hey there! I’m Kate, your go-to gal for passive income and creative business strategies.
I’m from Canada, born & raised on the East Coast, but I now call Ontario home. I’m a Mom of five, an Author, a business coach, and a bit of a tech nerd—eh? 😉
My happy place is at the beach (or anywhere near water), creating content or digging through the trenches in search of new on-the-rise niches.
My journey into entrepreneurship began almost 20 years ago, back when dial-up internet was still a thing. Yeah, I’m aging myself. *waves to my fellow Gen Xers*
Over the years, I’ve explored dozens of markets, dabbled in countless corners of the online business world, and faced my fair share of challenges.
So, if you need help, feel overwhelmed, or lack the confidence to grow a business, I’m here to remind you that if you have the drive and passion to be successful online, you can do this.
I guess this is about when most ‘About Me’ pages would offer up some fun fact or quirky statement, but here’s the best I’ve got:
I am terrified of heights—it’s a paralyzing fear.
Because of this, I’ve never been on a rollercoaster. My knees get weak if I so much as look at one.
But at least I know the origin story!
As a kid, we visited the Woodleigh Replicas on my favorite island, P.E.I.
While peering down from the top floor grate of the castle into the dark dungeon below, complete with a plastic skeleton, someone nudged me ahead, and I stumbled onto the latticed opening.
Yeah, I’m sure it was made of wrought iron and super strong, but my little brain processed only one thing…
I was about to fall to my death! #still-a-drama-queen.
Anyway, childhood trauma aside, when I’m not working—or avoiding heights—you’ll find me with my nose in a book. I’m a massive fan of thrillers and anything true crime.
And here’s a weird quirk of mine: I can’t sleep without a fan running on high. Quiet places aren’t my jam. Even when reading, writing, or creating content, I have a fan running in the office.
That also means I always pack one for travel, or if I can’t bring it along, I’ll order one and have it delivered to the hotel or resort.
Oh, and one time, to a cruise port. The fan made it through only to be confiscated the next day when housekeeping ratted me out.
Who knew it went against Norwegian’s rules? Not this girl! 🤦🏻♀️
From NCL.com:
No fans except for small electrical or battery-operated fans. *Please note that these fans are subject to confiscation by the ship’s security team for inspection and approval.
Oops!
But enough about me. I’d love to learn more about you and where you’re at in your online journey.
Oh, and don’t leave without snagging a free copy of the Passive Income Plan. It’s on the main page.
