Kate's journey from tech executive to priestess teacher represents one of the more dramatic career pivots in the wellness space. As Co-Founder and former CEO of a major chess tech company, Kate was featured in media like The Wall Street Journal and Business Insider.
Throughout her corporate years, Kate lived what seemed like two separate lives: by day, she led in a male-dominated industry; by night, she held ceremonies, rituals, and retreats across the world since 2010, while also founding Living Pretty, Naturally, a non-toxic beauty media platform. This chapter shaped her devotion to bridging worlds—between the ancient and modern, the sacred and the everyday, and the masculine and feminine.
Kate left the corporate world entirely to serve as a Priestess Teacher and focus on ancient Sacred feminine wisdom and seasonal traditions, building what has become a 143,000+ person following with millions of views of her teachings and thousands engaging in live ceremonies. As a Priestess, ceremonialist, and teacher of the feminine mysteries, she brings a unique perspective to the spiritual space.
Her approach centers on her Celtic ancestral roots and Sacred Feminine studies, teaching practices rooted in ancient nature-based spirituality. The Feminine Code offers programs including The Sacred Spiral Priestess Training, attracting accomplished women who are explicitly choosing ancient practices over modern productivity solutions.
When she isn't teaching, Kate tends thirteen sacred acres on a small island homestead with gardens, native bees, and animals.
