About
Hi, I'm Katherine Alexiss.
Your self-love coach, biggest hype woman, and a firm believer that life is meant to be lived, not just survived.
I built Yeay Day because I genuinely believe that every woman deserves to fall madly in love with herself.
For over twelve years, I've helped women across Los Angeles and online reconnect with themselves, rediscover what makes them come alive, and design lifestyles rooted in who they actually are. Not who they've been performing to be.
I bring my whole self to this work. My lived experience with ADHD, anxiety, depression, people-pleasing, an eating disorder, grief, trauma, and surviving two cancers at once didn't break me. They made me the coach I am today — one who genuinely gets it, and who will show up to celebrate every single step of your journey with you.
Self-love isn’t about becoming someone new—it’s about bringing to life who you’ve always been.
My Story
The Journey That Built Yeay Day Life Coaching
2022
I know what it feels like to wake up and not recognize yourself.
I rang in 2022 on a beach in Brazil with a quiet prayer and a chest full of heaviness. I was begging God for one thing — time. Time to stop the noise. Time to finally figure out what would make me happy. Quite frankly - I hated myself. I was lost and desperate to find out who I was again even though optically I looked happy and "had it all".
The image of the life I was living did not fit who I was as a person.
THE TURNING POINT
Two weeks later, my prayer was answered. Just not how I expected.
I lost my job while in Brazil (my first vacation in two years). Two weeks after returning from my trip I was diagnosed with thyroid cancer and Hodgkin's lymphoma. And just like that — in the most unexpected way — God gave me exactly what I asked for. Time. All the time in the world to hear my voice again and practice the art of truly living life.
It may not have been how I expected — but it was the gift I needed most in life.
THE HEALING
Through my cancer journey, I knew I could choose to be mad, or make something out of the time I was gifted.
I mourned who I was. Sat with the hard questions and quiet parts of life I'd been running from. But slowly — with grace, tears, and a lot of laughter — I started to fall in love with who I actually was and the unique life I've been able to live.
The only way out of it... was through after all.
YEAY DAY WAS BORN
My season having cancer didn't break me. I was reborn. It allowed me to bring Yeay Day to life.
Everything I discovered about self-love, identity, and building a life from the inside out became the heart of this coaching practice. Surviving cancer gave me something no ladder I climbed ever could.
So, I built this for you — tried and true also for the version of me who needed guidance too.
YOUR INVITATION
You were with me then. I'm here for you now.
The past few years I've created journals, workshops, 30-day challenges, and facilitated groups across Los Angeles sharing my lessons and stories helping women like you design a lifestyle they are rooted in.
Everything I've created through Yeay Day comes back to one belief: you deserve to fall in love with yourself and the life you're building. And I'd love to help you discover what that looks like for you. Now...shall we?
XoXo Katherine
Love Letters
Honest and genuine. It’s refreshing since it’s hard to come by especially since not too many people like to push past comfort zones.
Kat does this from the get-go.
