Ep. 93: Embrace Your Intuition, Unleash Your Brilliance with Kate Marks

from Mission CTRL · host Peralta Design

This week's mission takes us to Antwerp, a port city in Belgium with a history dating back to the Middle Ages.  It’s the epicenter of the centuries-old Diamond District that houses thousands of diamond traders, cutters, and polishers.  But, you don’t have to travel to Belgium to dig for Diamonds, every year our next guest has a diamond dig in her location as a fundraising event for cancer research. Kate Marks is the founder of Marks of Design in Shelton.   Kate’s soccer coach, who was also her Art Teacher, told her she’d never get into an Art School.  Ignoring the naysayers, Marks’ followed her intuition and used their words as fuel to earn a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree.  After college Kate worked for several brands and designers, but she was never one to settle for complacency.  In 1999, Kate followed her intuition once again and opened Marks of Design and stayed in that location until 2016 when she moved into a much larger location.  Kate is a savvy businesswoman and a highly respected servant-leader in the community who spearheads some incredible initiatives.

Wounded Warriors of the Cross Gary Pastoral and clergy mental health is a mostly ignored area, especially by those who live their lives as pastors in the clergy. The stigma of mental health within those who serve in the shadow of the cross is something that invokes the stigma of fear. Many of those in the clergy will choose to suffer in their despair rather than reaching out for help. Sometimes those suffering choose to wait until it's too late to get the real help that they need. At Wounded Warriors of the Cross our mission is to lift the stigma and the veil of silence that encompasses clergy mental health and assist those who suffer in silence. Wounded Warriors of the Cross is here to shed the light of Christ's love into those dark places.
