𝗞𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗲 𝗕𝗲𝗮𝗻 (@katiebeanwellness)
A lifelong educator and advocate for holistic health and well-being, Katie Bean’s journey began in the high-pressure world of education in Washington, DC, where chronic stress led her to seek a more balanced, whole-person approach to life. Through yoga, she found healing—and a new path. Now a yoga teacher, speaker, and consultant, she has presented internationally and developed programs for organizations worldwide. Her memoir, Fragile Thoughts: A Healing Memoir, shares her deeply personal story of transformation.

Blending nature with imagination, Lexi creates dreamy, emotionally rich spaces where people can explore identity, vulnerability, and strength. Her work invites participants into mini-adventures—through forests, over rocks, into water—capturing moments that feel like living stories. Inspired by fantasy and unconventional heroes, her photography reveals beauty, magic, and truth in deeply personal ways.

An economist by day and a fantasy writer by night, Katy brings humor and imagination to her storytelling. Her short fiction has appeared in publications such as Abyss & Apex Magazine, The Arcanist, and Every Day Fiction. Her debut novel, A Holy Maiden’s Guide to Getting Kidnapped (2025) introduces her vibrant voice, with her next novel, The Purgatory Hotel for Wayward Ghosts, forthcoming in 2026.
