Hey Girl...
I'm Catharine- mom, teacher, and author
Life hasn’t always been picture-perfect, but it’s been faithful. I’ve learned that balance isn’t found in having it all together—it’s found in leaning hard on the One who holds it all. As a wife, mama, and multitasking teacher who’s walked through her fair share of burnout, I know what it feels like to crumble under the weight of a full life. But I’ve also seen how God meets us in the mess, not with shame—but with strength.
I’ve spent over 15 years teaching high school math, and while solving equations is part of my job, encouraging women is the call on my heart. Whether it’s a quick prayer before the school bell rings or a deep soul-talk across a kitchen table, I long to help women find God’s peace in the middle of the pressure.
My greatest joy is cheering on my family. I’m married to my best friend—an entrepreneur with a servant’s heart who carries the load on the days I need space to write or rest. Together, we raise two incredible children, Callen and Emma Cate, who keep us running from softball fields to basketball courts to skeet tournaments.
Our life is loud and full and beautiful.
​
But here’s what I know: full doesn’t have to mean frantic. Somewhere between the to-do lists and the tears, God invited me to a new way of living—anchored, intentional, and built on His promises. I created Words That Flourish as a space for women like me—women who feel stretched thin but still believe there’s more.
My book, Walk It Out: Balancing the Busy While Walking with God, was born from that tension. It’s for the woman who’s tired of feeling like faith is just another box to check. I want her to know that walking with God isn’t about doing more—it’s about trusting deeper.
So come on in, friend. This isn’t a space for perfect people—it’s for the everyday woman who wants to walk lighter, live fuller, and flourish in every season
