On health, money, motherhood, and business—written with a rebellious edge.

Hi, I’m Kasia

Writer, novelist, and entrepreneur

I'd describe my writing as a home for women in their 20’s–40’s who are emotionally intelligent, literary-leaning, ambitious, and drawn to wellness, lifestyle, and building something of their own.

When I’m not working, I’m spending time with my husband, enjoying my pregnancy, and relaxing with our dog Remy and cat Hunter. Thanks for being here—I hope you find something inspiring, especially on the blog.

With love, Kasia

The Newsletter

Thousands of engaged subscribers read my newsletter every month, and my writing was recently published in Write or Die Magazine.

I often share thoughts on motherhood, health, money, writing, and business. I also share non‑fiction and fiction books, as well as TV and movie recommendations that truly captivated me.

What you won’t find are consumerist lists of the latest skincare, clothes, gift guides, or vacation spots you “need” to try. If you enjoy thinking differently, too… join my newsletter.

Upcoming books

I’m the writer of Girl in the Dark Room, a literary suspense novel about a woman trapped in a dark room. At its core, the story explores how abusive relationships can render women invisible. I’m currently at work on my third novel, Nerve, and a children’s book series called Welcome Home Hunter, based on the true story of a wild cat who befriended our dog in our yard and became a part of our family.

Praise for Girl in the Dark Room

  • “Starkly emotional writing with moments that completely arrested me.”

    —Alexandra Sehulster, editor at St. Martins Press 

  • “My mind is abuzz with your moving, brilliant, page-turning book. Emma is a character who will stay with me for a long time.” 

    —Chelsea Bieker, author of Godshot, Heartbroke, and Madwoman

  • “A terrific and promising project. Emma is an exceptional character and it is simply impossible not to become invested in her well-being.”

    —Bernadette Baker-Baughman, literary agent 

  • “I was immediately pulled in by the juicy premise, and the fascinating dynamic between Emma and Ash—how they play cards together and how he crawls into bed with her at night.”

    —Rachel Beck, literary agent 

  • “An important exploration of trauma.”

    —Abby Saul, literary agent
