Not Normal Things

"When you feel surrounded by darkness, the beauty of a single fraction of light is astonishing, but that light is not always gifted to us; sometimes we must create it for ourselves."




In a world increasingly full of "love and light" and happy, toxic- positivity, Cate brings an air you can breathe. She creates space for you to sit in the darkness, where all seeds need to dwell and gather nourishment ready to burst into the world with thick stable roots.




The growth she speaks of is taught from the lessons of her own experiences and struggles. She leads by example and most importantly, she always tells the raw truth; good, bad and ugly; no filters, and no judgement. This is the key to real growth and happiness, whatever that might look like for you.




This book has been born out of many years of intense learning and living. It is said that a clever person learns from experience, but a truly wise person learns from someone else's. As you embark on this magical journey and get to know Cate, you will learn from her experiences and discover how to apply these important lessons in your life. You will come to believe in yourself, find serenity, and trust your own power. This book will show you that you are so much more than you can ever possibly imagine, and that you are loved exactly as you are. Not only that, but you'll feel that love coming from each page you turn, and know that you've found your tribe. Welcome home.
