On today’s podcast, I’m joined by Kate O’Brien.  Kate is a multi-passionate creative and outdoor enthusiast. In 2019, Kate stepped away from a long career in commercial interior design, to pursue a different creative path and lifestyle.  She relocated to her historic Hill Country property, tending to her AirBNB, gardens, cats, dogs, numerous chickens and longtime boyfriend. From there, she does a few projects each year, particularly designing interiors for the homes of severely wounded veterans. 

Kate was introduced to tomahawk throwing several years ago, on an expedition in the Tetons, with her sons and later honed her skills under the guidance of a national tomahawk throwing champion. “Texas Hawks “ was soon launched as an offering at retreats, fundraisers and corporate team building. Kate finds the activity seems to especially resonate with women, combining stress relief with a feeling of empowerment. Welcome to the podcast Kate O’Brien!

As a tomahawk throwing coach, Kate encourages women to focus on the intention, which brings a sense of power, not limited by physical strength or ability. Texas Tomahawk Throwing with K8 will be offered as a Lucky Star Extra.

Lucky Star Extra :  Texas Tomahawk Throwing with Kate

***********************************************************************************

Lucky Star is a women’s art and whole living sleepaway camp that takes place each fall in the Texas hill country. This is no art retreat in a hotel conference room…and no, we’re not camping in tents… we’re actually “glamping” in climate controlled cabins that are built into the hillside overlooking the Guadalupe River, and we’re eating gourmet, chef-prepared food in a dining hall like we’re at Hogwarts!  We’re fully immersed in creative workshops like jewelry making, astrology, mixed media collage, apothecary, abstract painting, writing, sewing, yoga, welding, pottery, and we’ve even had classes on raising alpacas and tomahawk throwing!  No dishes, no laundry, no driving kids, and no deadlines or demanding bosses.  Just a solid five days to be YOU because we believe in the importance of discovering/reigniting the authentic part of you that makes you feel ALIVE and we know that CREATIVITY can be a powerful catalyst for growth, healing, self-care, connection, and just the spark you need to thrive. 

When we’re not at camp learning, laughing, making, and singing by the campfire, we’re a thriving creative community of supportive women known as the Lucky Star Galaxy and we’d love for you to join us!
