My name is Catie. I’m 25-years-old, Virginia born, New Jersey raised, and currently living right outside NYC. I love a lot of things - singing, music, trying new coffee places, going for runs and weight lifting; watching skincare videos and morning routine vlogs on YouTube; reading self-development books, hearing a stranger’s life story, and listening to the NYT’s Modern Love podcast. I love walking my dog Gus, making pancakes on Fridays with my brother, going out with my friends, and drinking Moscow Mules. I’m a huge fan of riding my Peloton, practicing mindfulness, and striving to live a balanced, healthy lifestyle and helping others do the same. The list goes on and on!
I’m a multi-passionate person. You might think that sounds cliche, but it’s just the truth. And after years and years of trying to put myself in a box (especially when it came to a blog), I’ve decided to embrace that part of me. Despite all of these passions, I’m certain of one thing.
Ever since I learned to write with those giant blue marble notebooks and chunky pencils, I’ve never been able to stop. And because of all of these passions, I love writing about really anything close to my heart. I love creating and sharing stories. That’s really what Courtesy of Catie is all about. Whether I’m giving you a quick mindfulness tip, an embarrassing story about my childhood or a bad date, or a list of my favorite books, I hope you find something here you like.
Thank you for taking some time out of your day to learn a little about me, and I hope to learn more about you too.
PS: That's me and my brother!
