Hi, I’m Katie Lewis. Creator of The Innovatist. Writing has always been a passion of mine whether it’s fiction or non-fiction. However, mental health runs deeper than passion. It’s a part of me, as it is so many others. Finding out I was autistic a couple of years ago was like a spark moment, everything about my past and my mental health struggles made sense and I was able to venture on to the present and then the future of healing old wounds, which is something I could never do before. That personal journey has taught me so much about myself and what is needed out of life and what’s not. The drive to help others is a force that’s just so strong, how could I not try to create a conversation for teenagers, young adults and more around the world? Being a teenager in this day and age is tough in terms of expected standards, unspoken rules and opinions of millions of different people that we just have to abide by. I’m here to explain to you how to make your own rules and moulds, and also how to find the best products, that I have spent years finding, in five seconds in my easily accessible posts. This will put you on the long (but worth it) track to self-growth. You can start to discover your most authentic self at any age but the first step is always the hardest. Let’s create a movement that values mental health, wellness and feeling the best you can so that we can build a healthy, strong and intelligent generation for now and for the future.
