This is your home for becoming a hotspot of belonging that transforms the world. I'm the Director of Belonging at the University of Southern California, and a speaker, writer + innovator sparking micro-movements of belonging.
Belonging is our deepest need, first human right + the #1 predictor of our happiness across the lifespan. And the good news is that despite the crisis of loneliness and despair in our world, we are wired to create nests of meaningful connection right where we are--as individuals, organizations and societies. Across age, wage and divides.
I create strategy, leadership models, pilot projects, immersive experiences, curriculums, language and visuals to help us create those nests. Check out the Speaking + Consulting pages for some ideas on partnership, and let's chat.

"Cat has an uncanny ability to connect with systems in a way that humanizes them."
- Sam C., Executive Director, Level Ground
"What Cat is doing here can serve as the basis for renewed democracy."
- Jim B., Senior Associate Dean, USC
"Cat's understanding of people and systems runs deep. Beyond this, she brings to her work a faith in humanity and a commitment to fun, workable solutions that make her a joy to work with. She helped me -- a solitary writer, emphasis on solitary -- launch a successful workshop program. Nobody but Cat could make the work of drawing writers out of themselves so fun and so effortless."
- Ellie R., Writer, Founder, Write & Hike
"I've learned from Cat that community is synonymous with breathing. She has also attended several of my retreats, helping with ideas to create a magical experience out of the weekends. Cat not only has brilliant ideas, but she is a delight to be around."
