Notes is the audio home for the writing and voice of Kathy Patalsky — an author, writer, and photographer living in Los Angeles.

It’s a collection of unfiltered short essays that say out loud the thoughts many people carry quietly, capturing modern life as it unfolds in real time.

A mother and creative entrepreneur, Kathy writes with emotional clarity and a sharp cultural lens, moving between personal reflection and cultural observation with ease.

An elder millennial with deep ties to pop culture, technology, and online storytelling, she has been creating on the internet since 2007 — moving through an iconic blog, cookbooks, screenwriting, paid brand collaborations, contributor roles, and digital media. A two-time cookbook author with a global audience, her career has unfolded publicly, alongside the culture itself.
