WRITING
EXPLORING THE MICRO-MOMENTS THAT SHAPE YOUR STORY
LIFE IS MADE IN THE MICRO-MOMENTS.
“I don’t believe it’s the big things that tell our story. It’s the small, everyday occurrences that create our sense of Self. It’s in the tiny micro-moments that we’re presented with the biggest life choices, and in our interpretation of them that we decide who we are.”
-Katie Horwitch
“More truth and fresh perspectives. Your power of observation is incredible, which really comes through in your writing. You write with all five senses...and an editor couldn’t ask for more! I’ve not picked up a single instance of cliché, which is rare in [the personal development] genre.”

Katie’s writing career began in 2007 ghost-writing, blogging, and editing for entrepreneurial blogs, screenwriters, and wellness brands. In 2011, she joined Pressed Juicery as a founding editor of The Chalkboard Mag, where she helped establish the brand as one of the top wellness lifestyle online publications. At TCM, she wrote and edited original lifestyle, wellness, and mind-body content for four years - as well as contributed to Darling Magazine, Cameron Diaz’s Our Body Book, and more. Since launching WANT: Women Against Negative Talk in 2015 (where she writes weekly), her writing has been seen on mindbodygreen, Darling, Women’s Running, Thrive Global, The Cut, Aaptiv, The Fullest, and Insider.
Her first book, Want Your Self: Shift Your Self-Talk and Unearth The Strength In Who You Were All Along, was released by Sounds True in Fall 2023.
