“You Might Need to Make Your Own Magic!”
When I was 10 years old, I was given a dream job working for Radio Disney. I hosted a national talk show called Kasey’s Korner interviewing celebrities like Britney Spears, Destiny’s Child, and 98 Degrees. It was this experience that paved the way for me to pursue Journalism School even though I was told by my news professor that my look was “better suited” for behind the camera.
Through out this journey I was weighed down by never-ending criticism and my own insecurities. I wanted to be the girl on the red carpet for Entertainment Tonight or everyone’s favorite afternoon talk show host, but I didn’t see anyone who looked like me doing it, so I set out to be the role model I wish I had.
In 2021, I decided to dig up that dream of hosting my own talk show and make it happen for myself. Thanks to social media and audio streaming, I no longer had the excuses that had held me back for so long.
That dream has been re-born as a weekly podcast called “Millennial Mom” where I host as I hold conversations with experts and influencers around parenting, body image, and women's health issues to serve as the ultimate resource for millennial moms so they can overcome the overwhelm of everyday life with confidence, humor and style.

In 2023, Kasey was diagnosed with Stage 2 Lipedema, a genetic tissue disorder that causes chronic pain and swelling in the extremities. After decades of body dysmorphia and disordered eating this diagnosis gave Kasey so many answers to a laundry list of questions she had been asking herself for years. Lipedema affects 11% of women in America and is wildly underrecognized by the medical industry. Kasey has made it her mission to bring awareness to this disease and advocate for the medical industry to understand this disease and help women obtain treatment to alleviate their symptoms.
