Meet Erin Kate

We’re excited to introduce you to the always interesting and insightful Erin Kate. We hope you’ll enjoy our conversation with Erin below.

Hi Erin , we’re so appreciative of you taking the time to share your nuggets of wisdom with our community. One of the topics we think is most important for folks looking to level up their lives is building up their self-confidence and self-esteem. Can you share how you developed your confidence?

I stopped using the validation of others.

I used to believe that I had to look a certain way in order to be received and then I got into a relationship, my first real relationship, thinking, “Oh, I don’t have to worry about how anyone else sees me because I have my boyfriend and he loves me.” Whew, was I naive lol. In that relationship, I was rarely told I was beautiful and he barely invested time into us; it was all me. I actually grew more insecure and overweight but lessons had to be learned. That went on for three years and four dogs later of me losing sight of myself. It wasn’t until I was exhausted, broke and broken that I gained the courage to walk away. Walking away was just the first step, I had to learn to stay away. I tried to work things out but my ex ignored me for two days and that’s when I told God, ” Ok, I give my life to you. Show out on me!” and on the third day after my breakup my ex returned wanting to now work things out but what he didn’t know was that I was already being restored by God and it was too late, my self esteem grew. I came into a newfound perspective of myself and my life. I was already posting tarot messages to my TikTok but wasn’t fully consistent and I only showed my hands. Halloween came around and I heard clear as day, ” Turn the camera around so they can see you. I made you beautiful.” and so I did. It took a dip in numbers for a day or two and then BOOM people started flocking to my page like moths to a flame. I was finally being seen for the beauty that I embody within and out, people started to see me for me and not who they wanted me to be. I was showered in love, compliments, gratitude and appreciation in my dms and comments. Who would have thought that all I needed was appreciation not validation. My self esteem grew even more and I felt like I was able to breathe again but also that I do matter and to those I matter to I am cherished. That fueled me to keep going and to go even harder. I started posting 24 times a day for about a week and I went viral obtaining over one million views and over one hundred thousand likes plus tens of thousands of shares, favorites and comments. I officially had been placed on the map! I wasn’t just known locally anymore, I became international. People are watching me from all over the globe in their living rooms, in the shower, driving home and it didn’t stop there. LIVES became my thing and my lives grew astronomically. I started gaining tens of thousands of people watching and over a million likes per live. My TikTok page started to gain ten thousand followers per month and when I hit forty thousand my confidence was solidified. This is where potential got introduced to purpose and I got to work.

Thanks for sharing that. So, before we get any further into our conversation, can you tell our readers a bit about yourself and what you’re working on?

I am a Cultivator as well as a Spiritual Advisor. Healing is what I do. I spend ample time doing field research in this chapter of self discovery. My priority is patience. Slow mornings filled with me time and good decisions.

I am Mama Panda to my mentees. I aspire to make as many millionaires as possible through assisting in helping individuals with breaking generational curses and to obtain and grow their generational wealth. I have built a community where you can feel safe to express yourself while being held accountable as well as developing financial literacy. We aren’t made to just pay bills but to live life how we want to.
I help you see through the inflammation of life so that you can be freed of the endless cycle of survivalism and buy back your time.

Disclosure: I do not and will not reach out to you for a reading as there are fake accounts out there doing so.

Looking back, what do you think were the three qualities, skills, or areas of knowledge that were most impactful in your journey? What advice do you have for folks who are early in their journey in terms of how they can best develop or improve on these?

SAMPLE everything, patience and time management!

A little literally goes a long way. When I first started out with my metaphysical store I spent over a thousand dollars on stickers/labels just to receive them and it was all wrong. I had it made before I was sure on the website so the website was wrong. The color was washed out because it looked completely different on paper than it did on the computer screen. I learned to instead buy my own printer and then print off samples before batches; spare the trees and don’t waste paper! I also learned that without proper time management you will always be rushing to the next thing and that will exhaust you causing you to make decisions without proper planning or commitments you can’t or shouldn’t keep. I would set deadlines and then race to meet them creating more room for error. Take your time and think it through before you execute. You also have to do the grunt work to understand the many levels it takes to make something successful. A thousand orders a day in theory is something totally different in actuality. I was exhausted from just over a hundred orders and that humbled me quickly but I am grateful.

Before we go, any advice you can share with people who are feeling overwhelmed?

When I get overwhelmed I stop everything and I go into what I call cocoon mode or hermit mode.

I sleep even if it’s more than usual because we don’t realize how much energy we exert while we are actively exerting. I eat more and I pay attention to what I am eating. I go outside for a walk. I watch something nostalgic or something I feel called to watch. I cry my heart out and most importantly, I talk to God. It’s not always a kind conversation, I genuinely express how I feel no matter how mad, sad or indifferent that may be. I get real with myself and do a wellness check. Life is always going to life so you have to learn when to pump the breaks and just deactivate. I put my phone on dnd and I will fast if I feel called to it. Deactivate social media and environments that spark comparison which leads to competition. When you get overwhelmed you start to feel as if you aren’t important in my opinion. So I make myself a priority because my work and my purpose is paramount.
