About Us
Our Mission
Do you find yourself thirsting for something greater than what the world has to offer? Well, you’ve come to the right place! As two young Catholic women, we have been left overwhelmed and exhausted from the noise and influence of today’s culture. Join us as we learn to combat the influence of the world and pursue the Jesus influence. Together we will learn to navigate how we can live in the world and not be of the world. From fashion and beauty to health and fitness, relationships, book recommendations, we desire to open the conversation about everyday topics and view them from the Catholic lens. We invite you to come along as we share the ways Jesus has been working in our hearts. He thirsts to be with us in it all; the beauty, the chaos, the disorder, the joy and the pain. Our souls, too, thirst for the living God. Jesus asks all of us as He did the woman at the well, “Will you give me a drink?” Join us as we respond, and all shall be well.
Meet Katie
Hi friends, Katie here! I am a very average 25 year old trying to survive the real world. I moved to Kansas City in 2022 to work in the field Product development as a Designer, though I grew up in rural Indiana. I am passionate about design, fashion and visual arts! Creating makes me feel close to the Lord and I desire to mirror his beauty in the things I create. I love to stay active, play in adult sports leagues, attend workout classes and especially go on walks with friends! My awesome Boyfriend Ned and I particularly love to dominate the flag football field in the fall. Kansas City has brought me so many wonderful and holy friendships through Catholic Young Adult groups such as City on a Hill and YCP. I have the gift of living with 3 other amazing women.
- Fun Fact: I have a major sweet tooth and delight in baking. I love trying new recipes, making them my own, and trying to make “healthy” versions of my favorite recipes!
- Favorite Saints: St. Bernadette, St. Thérèse of Lisieux, St. Catherine of Sienna
Meet Kayla
I’m Kayla! I’m in my mid-twenties but still feel like I am fourteen years old. I grew up in Cleveland but recently moved to the Chicago suburbs where my husband and best friend Tom is from. I love my Catholic faith, country music, oatmeal and coffee for breakfast, going for a walk or run outside, and my two dogs, Koda (pictured below) and Rocky. You can usually find me working out, watching one of the “Rocky” movies for the hundredth time, meandering around a grocery store, laughing with Tom, enjoying/suffering through a Cleveland sports game, or playing games with family and friends. I’ve wanted to start a blog for as long as I can remember, and after leaving my Big Four accounting job I’m thrilled to have the opportunity to start! All glory to God.
- Fun Fact: I have a second-degree black belt in Tae Kwon Do and am a two-time national champion in sparring. I even know how to use nunchucks and a bo staff!
- Favorite Saints: St. Raphael, St. Anne, St. Thérèse of Lisieux, St. Mary Magdalene, Bl. Carlo Acutis
