I am so thrilled to be doing our 5th annual, “Katie’s Favorite Things!” If the title sounds a bit like Oprah’s Favorite Things – it is intentional. As a lot of you know I am a huge fan of Oprah; the type of leader she is and the impact she has had on people worldwide – especially women. I also have a personal Oprah Story about how I checked a huge item off of my bucket list by getting tickets to her show in it’s final season. Click here to listen to my Oprah Story podcast episode!

Bucket list item! I had the honor of getting tickets to The Oprah Show in it’s last season with my bestie!
When Oprah had her daytime show, I always loved watching her annual Favorite Things show and thought how fun it would be for me to try to do that one day. Since 2017 I have been hosting “Katie’s Favorite Things” on Facebook Live and I am thrilled to do it again this year!
On December 17th, I hosted a Facebook Live where I highlighted a few of my favorite things for business, life and tech. Here is the replay:
A few disclosures: these are all products I have purchased, read or consumed and highly recommend. These are things that have been carefully selected to share with you – my community, because they have impacted my life in so many ways. Second, I am promoting Amazon affiliate links which means if you decide to purchase anything on this list, I do receive a small commission from Amazon. I am not hired by any of these companies to pitch or promote their products – I am doing so on my own volition!
