Katherine Warren

At the core of Katherine’s work is a simple mission: to share what she’s learned on her journey toward finding and maintaining a balanced life so others can do the same.

Katherine spent years learning how to achieve balance while experiencing a dramatic personal transformation. She found tools to fight a 20+ year battle with depression and insomnia; discovering the power of mindfulness, a reasonable approach to wellness and mental health, and the mindful magic of baking and cooking. Now she’s on a mission to share these tools with others, helping people discover what works best for them on their own journey to balance.

Katherine is the founder of Balance and Rise, a website dedicated to helping people find balance at home and at work. Through a mix of mindfulness, mental health practices, reasonable wellness (balanced food and movement), and a people-first leadership approach, Katherine’s blog and private services help individuals achieve small, intentional steps towards a more balanced life.

Katherine also serves as the COO of KidGlov, a marketing agency that helps nonprofits and purpose-driven businesses amplify their impact. At KidGlov, Katherine takes a people-first approach to process and operations. She uses many of the same tools to help her team find a balanced approach to work; one that creates more focus and joy in the work itself, ultimately leading to exceptional quality and productivity. She does the same for KidGlov’s clients, creating balanced marketing strategies that blend powerful discernment with tactics that work.

Katherine is an avid home baker, cook, and a certified yoga and meditation teacher. She founded PLAY, Lincoln, NE’s largest community yoga event, which is celebrating its 11th year. She’s also an award-winning marketer (Marketing Hall of Fame, Marketer of the Year, Lincoln’s Inspire Women’s Leadership Award), a passionate community volunteer, and a lover of all things movement—whether it’s yoga, running, or Pelotoning. Katherine enjoys living in the “suburban country” with her husband (aka partner in crime) Kirk and rescue dog (aka her favorite running partner) Mollie.
