Kathie Kalafatis developed her love of writing at a very young age. After a tragic accident took the life of her father, she began writing poetry to express her inner most feelings of love and loss. ‘The Wishflower Princess' was born to capture the imagination of young readers through her love of rhythmic storytelling. Wanting to bring awareness of the critical connection between human hope and humanity at large, Kathie created a story to help convey the importance of developing strong coping skills during challenging life circumstances. Kathie is an artist who creates intention paintings through metaphysical and empathic mediation. She is the CEO of CleanAir Solutions, a dedicated human rights activist, and founder of the O.W.L.S group; offering women loving support through self-discovery. A dedicated mother of two, she imagined this story from one of her many bath-time tales that both delighted and sparked the curiosity of her children.
