Kate Waite
Author, Designer, Lifestyle Expert
CA, USKate Waite is a lifestyle expert, who teaches other women and girls how to live their most beautiful life, regardless of any challenges or circumstances they face. Kate has truly mastered the art of living beautifully. From her earliest memories, she has always been passionate about living fully and embracing all of the beauty life beholds.
As a self-taught designer and marketing expert, she took her raw talent and big dreams and launched a career in fashion design. After being in the early stages of starting an interior decorating business, her plans changed quickly when she was presented with an incredible opportunity to become a fashion designer. From her passion and with a lot of hard work, her dresses and handbags were sold to upscale department stores and coastal boutiques around the country. Within a year Kate and her designs were featured on ABC News, Good Morning America and All My Children. She also had the honor to design handbags for a celebrity bride and her bridesmaids at her wedding in the Hamptons.
Although Kate has been blessed to experience great success and happiness in her life, she has also endured her share of heartbreak and painful life- altering events. At fifteen years old, her life came crashing down around her when a fire broke out in her high school chemistry class. As flames engulfed her body, her life, as she knew it disappeared in the smoke and ashes. She was left disfigured with second and third degree burns on over a third of her body.
In her darkest hour, she was able to meet someone who would not only bring her hope, but change the course of her life forever. Her purpose in life took a dramatic shift. Kate knew that somehow, she would find a way to pay it forward to others. Hope had given her life. Kate would now make it her mission to bring inspiration and empowerment into the lives of others, who were lost in the despair of their own circumstances.
Leaving the hospital, with nothing but hope and the dream of the endless possibilities for her future, Kate could never have foreseen the twists and turns her journey would take. The years that would unfold were nothing less than remarkable. Although there would be more adversity and heartache, she grew to discover blessings and gifts that blossomed from her own transformation and growth. Being pushed to limits she could not have fathomed; doors opened to an awakening of her soul’s purpose, as an earthly being.
Constantly in survivor mode, Kate had become accustomed to one way of life... surviving. Tired of living this way, she made the decision to make a bold transformation. No longer willing to settle with surviving, Kate began to make her focus on thriving.
Kate spent many of the following years as a student. She began her formal studies at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst and later as an English Major, at the University of Colorado, Boulder. Passionate to learn, Kate furthered her education by studying and emulating the thoughts and actions of other experts and leaders; who understood how to create authentic happiness and abundance in their own lives. Along the way, she discovered some gold nuggets of her own, which have proven to be a priceless treasure in her path to enlightenment. It has taken thirty years for Kate to share her message with the world. Yet, she has no doubt her journey has blessed her with the wisdom and personal transformation to fully prepare her to inspire and empower those, who are missing true joy and abundance in life.
Kate is thrilled to finally share her passion and enthusiasm by helping others discover their true potential. As a first time author, she recently was awarded a top honor and prize in the 2012 Transformational Author Writing Contest. In edition, she was recognized by Bill Gladstone of Waterside Press, as one of the top entries.
Kate looks forward to motivating people around the world, with her powerful message. She is driven by her desire to serve others and inspire them to live beautifully, regardless of their challenges in life. She resides in Southern California with her husband, Mark and three children.
