My Story

Writer. Actress. Blogger.

 

When I began dreaming about creating my own little corner of the internet, I struggled with the pressure to create a niche brand. After years of feeling that I needed to pigeonhole my work into one single category (and struggling to do so successfully, I might add) I realized I was gaining no joy by limiting my brand, or myself, to any one thing. What I want most in this life is to stay as true to myself as possible. I want to spend my time pursuing not just one, but all, of the things that I love. I want to represent myself in the truest way, and I simply cannot do that by claiming to be only one thing.

So KirstieRenae.com was created as a place to honor my many passions in life. My ability to connect emotionally to myself and others through acting, my rekindled relationship with writing as a form of authentic expression, and my newfound love of therapy and self-care are just a few. The list also includes my passion for cooking and baking as well as my love of dogs, wine, and television.

I want to connect with others in a genuine, meaningful way. I want to act and cook and write and share and create and give myself the freedom to let my many dreams shift, change, and grow as I do. More than anything, I want to help those around me feel motivated to do so as well. I want to be authentic, fearless, and never limit myself to the constraints of our society that constantly pressures us to define ourselves.

That’s what you’ll find here- a little bit of everything I love and an honest representation of myself. This is a journey to my truest, most authentic self. I hope through making this journey, and inviting everyone to follow along, I can inspire others to do the same.

I am an actress. I am a writer. I am a blogger. I am a foodie. I am a dog mom. I am a feminist. I am an artist. I am Kirstie Renae.
