K.M. Cookie is a believer in the truth of storytelling. She holds a master's degree in interdisciplinary studies, integrating writing, leadership, and business, and a UCLA certificate in creative writing. A certified True Colors communication facilitator and growth-mindset expert, her work has appeared in Creative Nursing and Career Education Review, and she has spoken at national conferences on leadership, resilience, and empowerment.

 

When not telling stories or leading workshops, Cookie curates playlists, collects dream catchers, and takes garden walks with her husband and their beloved rescue pit bull. Accompanied by the Chuck Taylor sparkle shoes that mirror her journey in writing, coaching, or leadership development, she is driven by a single guiding question: "Are you creating?"
