For Catherine, the phrase Be Your Own Hero is not just the title of her book, Be Your Own Hero: Senior Living Decisions Simplified, it is a mindset that has resonated with her since childhood, embodies who she is, and an approach she takes in all aspects of life. Catherine’s belief that everyone has the power and capability to Be Their Own Hero, is not only a common thread seen and felt in her personal and professional life, but what drives her motivation, desire, and commitment, to encourage, support, and empower others to find their own hero within.

As Co-Host of the Tattered Capes Podcast, Catherine is dedicated to changing the conversations around healthy aging choices that hold potential for increased opportunities for continued higher quality of life as we age.

Catherine serves as a member of the Board of Directors for The National Aging in Place Council and is a recipient of the Tribute to Women and Industry (TWIN) Award which honors women who have excelled in their field and made significant contributions to their industry.

Whether on the golf course, exploring new landscapes on her kayak, or capturing the raw beauty of nature as an award-winning wildlife photographer, Catherine finds joy in pursuits that harmonize mind, body, and her love of nature.
