Katy Allred

After 11 years in corporate America, Katy Allred was inspired to create her alter-ego, the "mostly mindful mommy". The birth of her daughter in 2013 ignited a passion for helping children gain the same understandings and tools for growth that she found through her meditation practice but at an earlier age.

As a Certified Meditation Facilitator for Children, she holds group meditation classes for children where her favorite part is hearing the children share their innate wisdom and guiding them to cultivate it further. Her intensive study of meditation over the past 8 years informs her work as a mother, speaker, blogger, and workshop facilitator.

She offers coaching to parents and families both locally and from anywhere using Skype to assists families in deepening their connections using mindfulness techniques. She lives in Colorado Springs, Colorado with her husband and 18-month-old daughter where she enjoys frolicking outdoors with her family, snowboarding, and dancing her heart out anywhere at anytime.
