In this interview, Katherine shares insights into her journey, challenges, and vision for the future.
You wear many hats as a writer, faith-based speaker, and entrepreneur. How did your journey begin?
I’ve always been passionate about storytelling and communication. Writing gave me a way to express myself, but more importantly, to connect with others. Over time, I realized my words had the power to inspire, and that naturally evolved into faith-based speaking. As for entrepreneurship, I wanted to create solutions and products that not only serve people but also reflect my values. That’s how Plan Itt Ltd and Sunset Drinks were born, both came from a desire to bring creativity, excellence, and purpose into everyday life.
What inspired you to create your YouTube channel?
For me, I believe my voice belongs alongside the many others already out there, and YouTube is a powerful way to amplify that. As Christians, the onus is on us to step forward, to speak, to show up, and to consistently share the message of excellent living, Christian values, and high business standards. The channel is my way of being more present, more visible, and more intentional about reaching people where they are.
The channel features three distinct series. Can you tell us more about them?
Absolutely. The Faith Series is all about spiritual nourishment; practical, heartfelt insights that help people live with more intention and purpose. Letters to My Younger Self is reflective and personal; it’s about speaking to past versions of ourselves, healing, and encouraging resilience. Finally, Becoming Series is for those who are evolving and striving toward their goals. It’s about embracing the process of growth, not just the outcome.
Of the three series, which has been the most meaningful to you personally?
Letters to My Younger Self is very close to my heart. It forces me to be vulnerable, to look back at moments where I struggled, doubted myself, or felt small and then to reframe those experiences with wisdom and compassion. It’s healing for me, and I believe it’s healing for others too.
You’re a serial entrepreneur. What challenges have you faced in balancing business with your creative and spiritual work?
Balance is always the hardest part. There were times when I felt pulled in ten different directions. What I’ve learned is that clarity and boundaries are essential. I’ve also had to build a team and learn to delegate, that was a big shift for me. I no longer try to do it all; I focus on the things that only I can do and empower others to handle the rest.
How do you measure success?
For me, success is measured by impact. Of course, I want to see growth in my businesses and platforms, but the real question is: Am I changing lives? Are people walking away encouraged, more confident, more grounded? If the answer is yes, then I know I’m on the right path.
What’s next for you?
I’m really excited about expanding the YouTube platform and building a stronger community around it. Beyond that, I’m working on scaling both Plan Itt Ltd and Sunset Drinks to reach wider audiences. I also have plans to write more not just articles, but books in the near future. So, the future is full, but I’m ready. So follow me on my socials to stay connected @KatherineNathan_o.
What advice would you give to young people who want to blend faith, storytelling, and entrepreneurship?
First, start with your ‘why.’ If you don’t know your purpose, you’ll burn out quickly. Second, stay consistent even when growth feels slow. And finally, protect your authenticity, don’t compromise who you are just to fit in or go viral. The right people will always be drawn to your genuine voice.
Outside of work, how do you stay grounded?
My faith is my anchor, so prayer and reflection are non-negotiable for me. I also try to make time for family, journaling, and the little things; a walk, a good meal, laughter with friends. Those moments refill me.
