Katie Baker is a writer, advocate, and childhood abuse survivor who has transformed her journey of trauma and healing into a story of resilience, empowerment, and hope. After years of battling addiction, shame, and the lingering effects of a tumultuous childhood, she found profound transformation through therapeutic psychedelics and deep inner work.
In her memoir, When The Universe Holds Your Hair Back, Katie shares her raw and deeply personal journey—a story of confronting the past, reclaiming lost parts of herself, and embracing a life of authenticity, self-love, and purpose.
From the Amazon description:For years, Katie Baker wore the mask of a woman who had it all together. On the surface, she was a successful professional, a loving mother, and the embodiment of relentless perseverance. But beneath that carefully crafted facade, the cracks were deepening into fractures too wide to ignore. Haunted by a childhood of instability—marked by alcoholic fathers, sexual, physical, and verbal abuse, a lack of protection, and exposure to addiction—she carried her pain like an invisible weight.
