Kate's Story

When They Said Give Up, She Chose Love

Twenty One months. One hour of FaceTime per week.

Kate Markland's separation from her son Gabriel could have broken her, but she chose love over fear.

Court battles tested her soul. She was mocked and left expected toĀ accept defeat.

Instead, she turned that precious weekly hour into magic.

The Values That Drive Everything

Kate's approach isn't theoretical - it's forged from lived experience:

Integrity means being able to look yourself and your child in the eye, knowing your actions align with your deepest values.

Courage means taking action despite fear, like turning 1 hour a week into an international bestseller.

Love means choosing connection over complaint, creativity over crisis, transformation over surrender.

The Mission That Started with a Hug

"Everything I do is so I can give Gabriel a real hug, a squeeze so tight."

That simple goal became something bigger. Every child who writes their own story after reading Gabriel's adventures. Every parent who learns to turn family challenges into creative connections. Every leader who discovers their biggest constraint could be their greatest strength.

Kate's mission: Prove that love-driven action creates measurable transformation.
