Have you purchased a copy of Zofia?  I would love to hear what you think, head to Amazon.ca or Goodreads (just click which one) and leave your review!  I would really appreciate it!

This was such a beautifully written and heartfelt story. I really enjoyed following the journey from Europe to Toronto and the life built along the way. It’s a meaningful reminder of the strength, resilience, and sacrifices behind so many family stories. A memorable and thoughtful read.

Zofia” is a project that is very close to my heart. Seeing a story from our family’s history brought forward in this way is incredibly meaningful, and I know how much care and dedication went into it.

What moves me most is the journey behind it—Kathryn's willingness to take something so personal and shape it into a book, and the courage it takes to share that with others. That kind of creative leap is never easy, and it says a lot about the author's heart and determination.

I’m truly proud of the commitment it took to bring this story to life and to preserve these memories for our family and for future generations.

- Chris Kapalowski

 This novel offers a moving portrayal of Zofia's journey from war-torn Poland to Canada, capturing both the hope and hardship of starting over in a new country. The author vividly illustrates Zofia's struggles with language, navigating a new way of life, and family hardships. What stands out most is the emotional resilience she develops as she navigates adversity. Overall, it’s a strong and caring story about not giving up, and it helps us understand the experiences of many newcomers.

UNBROKEN

Unbroken is a powerful, emotional journey about a woman rebuilding her life after everything she thought would break her.

It's a story of choosing peace, finding strength in the quiet moments, and learning that you can carry deep scars and still build a beautiful life.

Some breaks don't stay with us,

Some become the beginning of our becoming.

Stories that are waiting on the shelf...

They are not unfinished, they are waiting

Both of these stories are in the works

Surviving the Spin is a space for honest conversations about rebuilding yourself after emotional upheaval, distorted narratives, and relationships that left you questioning your own reality.
Hosted by me.. YAY; the podcast blends personal reflection, lived experience, and quiet resilience to explore what healing really looks like — without rushing it or sugarcoating it.
If you’ve ever felt unheard, misunderstood, or forced to untangle someone else’s version of your story, this is a place to breathe, listen, and remember who you are.
