The idea for Love Liaisons came about when Kathryn approached Marina on creating a podcast on modern relationships. They both are single mamas who share the same birthday and have years of experience in dating, loss and love.

Welcome, my lovlelies. My name is Kathryn (Kat). I want to share a little bit about my professional and educational background. I've dabbled in a variety of professions such as accounting, insurance, and education throughout my journey. I've been blessed to encounter all sorts of interesting souls along the way. I've traveled all over the United States, Canada, a few spots in Mexico, Europe, and in the Middle East.
I've been able to be lucky enough to have a book education and a tremendous education via travel. It has given me a front row seat to so many cultures and relationships all over the world. As to my why I'm doing this, well, I love giving back. Researching topics like relationships. My passion for volunteering has led me to start my own organization called Kat's Kause, which helps feed and clothe the homeless.
I've been helping people for years in all sorts of different ways throughout my career journey. It brings me such contentment in doing so. I found out recently from a therapist friend that the number one issue she counsels individuals on is their relationships with their significant other. When I heard that, I felt like there's no way I can't pursue this more.
Hi, I’m Marina. While Kathryn and I share many similarities—we’re both single boy moms, come from the same cultural background, and even have the same birthday—we’re also quite different. Our personalities, views, and lifestyles don’t always align, and even our drink choices set us apart. I’m a mindful wine enthusiast, while Kathryn prefers a hot cup of tea.
Let me tell you a little more about myself. I’m a professor, life coach, meditation instructor, and a lifelong student of love, loss, and everything in between. My fascination with relationships started in high school and led me to a career exploring the complexities of human connection. I hold a PhD in psychology and have spent over two decades researching and working in clinical settings, studying adult romantic relationships both in the U.S. and internationally. My expertise includes relationship satisfaction, the transition to parenthood, intimacy, stress and resilience, narcissistic abuse and recovery, diversity, and mindful relating.
Beyond my work, I find joy in meditation, yoga, dance, outdoor adventures, and travel. But like everyone else, I’m also just human—still figuring things out. As a single parent navigating the dating world, I’ve been through it all: marriage, divorce, unconventional partnerships, and even the profound grief of losing a partner. Through every experience, I’ve learned that the most lasting and important relationship is the one I have with myself.
I’m excited to share my stories, insights, and lessons with you on Love Liaisons.
