Hey there — I’m Katie Gubbe.

I help employers and clients bring bold, meaningful visions to life by blending creativity, strategy, and deep emotional intelligence. Whether designing trauma‑informed programs, crafting compelling narratives, or leading conservation initiatives like Witness the Wild, I translate complex ideas into clear, actionable plans that inspire engagement and deliver measurable results. My approach is collaborative and impact‑driven — I listen deeply, identify core needs, and create solutions that not only meet objectives but also strengthen communities, protect the environment, and leave a lasting positive legacy.

Questions

What's one word that best describes you?
Transformative
What truth are you ready to reclaim?
I’m ready to reclaim the truth that I am not unfinished—I am unfolding. My voice is not too much—it is a bridge. My stories, my roots, my softness, my fire… all of it belongs. I reclaim that beauty doesn’t need to ask permission. That the in-between is sacred. That mothering, creating, remembering—they are all forms of resistance and rebirth. I don’t need to fit—I am here to *bloom.*
What's a catchy nickname or title for you?
The Pulse (hence my newsletter for Revolution of the Heart!)
Why should clients want to work with you?
I create a grounded, transformative space where people feel seen, safe, and supported. My work is rooted in truth, healing, and lived integrity. I bring depth and meaning to everything I create. I give language to what others can feel but can’t yet name. I hold space with trauma‑informed, equity‑centered care. I embody the work — it’s authentic, not performative. I create beauty that shifts people, not just aesthetics.
What's a quote that represents who you are?
“I turn lived truth into transformative beauty.”
What motivates you?
I’m motivated by the desire to build meaningful legacy, foster healing, and create work that strengthens connection and belonging. I’m driven by the understanding that growth often begins in the shadows, where depth and clarity take root. My work is guided by a commitment to integrity, impact, and expression that helps people see themselves and their possibilities more clearly. Ultimately, what motivates me is creating experiences that illuminate, empower, and leave people better than I found them.

Character

Fiercely compassionate — I meet people where they are, without judgment.
Visionary — I see the bigger picture and create tools that spark transformation.
Resilient — I turn challenges into opportunities for growth and empowerment.

Influences

Catherine Sneed
Catherine Sneed’s Prison Garden Project showed me what restorative work can look like when dignity, land, and community healing come first. Her approach to transformation — through soil, responsibility, and connection — deeply shapes how I think about justice, creativity, and the power of giving people a place to grow.

Brands

Here are some brands I admire:

They combine creativity with activism, proving that business can be joyful, ethical, and community‑centered.
Adobe empowers creativity with its innovative software. They transform ideas into stunning visuals. From Photoshop to Illustrator, their tools are industry standards. They make creativity accessible and fun.
Patagonia leads with integrity, sustainability, and community care. Their work proves that business can be rooted in responsibility, repair, and long‑term stewardship.
