about me
Welcome to The Broke Bish. That’s me, Katie. I started this blog 6 years ago to hold myself accountable while trying to pay off $25k of debt. While I’ve knocked that down considerably in those 6 years (I’m down to maybe $8k now!), I’ve still got some habitual spending issues to resolve. Don’t we all? So I thought I would blog about them.
Here you’ll find money-saving tips, recipes, loopholes, shopping advice, personal recommendations, and probably a lot of DIY and home decor. I also just had a baby (well not just… she’s 11 months old now), so I’ve got thoughts and ideas and advice in the parenthood category as well. So stick around and join me on this weird adventure!
My interns
Elvis and La Bamba. It’s hard to tell which is which, even for us. They deal mostly in treats and pets. Napping by the window and not killing bugs is their specialty.
My mini
Charlotte James aka Lottie. She’s so weird and fun and amazing. We love watching her learn new things everyday and we love even more watching her chase the cats.
Some fun facts
- I was in a college marching band.

- I had my wisdom teeth until I was 37 years old.
- I know all the words to California Love (and I can (and do) sing it at parties).
