She’s Katerina

When we meet someone for the first time, conversations are often centered around a search for connection. What do you do for a living? What do you do for fun? Do you have kids? Are you in a relationship? Katerina and I found a connection in our children (we both have tween daughters) and in our love of words. Katerina also shared the ties that bind her voice. She lost a clients because she is a trans woman. She told me she decided to sound “more like a girl” to make clients feel comfortable, “But I felt like I lost my ability to write, to be creative, when I changed my voice to be more feminine.” I’m happy to note here that Katerina took her voice back again. She likes the sound of her voice, thank you very much, and she likes herself, thank you very much. What you read next is authentic Katerina. Thank you. Very much.
