Entrepreneur, novelist, podcast host and pop culture analyst Kate Kennedy resides in Chicago. Her life changed one day when she made the decision to place "turn off your curling iron" on her doormat so she wouldn't burn down her apartment after working for over seven years in corporate marketing and advertising. In order to reference her go-to text while she's rushing back inside to check if [said curling iron] is off, she started selling them under the brand name Be There in Five.
After approximately a year, she left her position as director of corporate marketing. The company was a success, selling tens of thousands of doormats that serve as reminders of things people often forget while rushing out the door.
She started doing pop culture commentary, which led to a podcast focused on pop culture and influencers (Be There in Five Podcast), which regularly makes the charts in its category. She also wrote a #1 new release book about her love/hate relationship with social media, Twinkle, Twinkle, Social Media Star. When breaking down and analyzing current pop culture events, Kate prefers to combine her years of corporate market research experience with her degree of content consumption as a self-employed person. Pop culture news easily fades from its exaggerated high-level time in the spotlight of the mainstream media because we live in a fast news cycle.
The Be There in Five podcast is committed to uncovering the experiences and stories hidden within easily trivialized zeitgeist components, not only to analyze and critique for entertainment's sake but also to celebrate these seemingly unimportant topics' far more significant role in fostering human connection and learning..
