About Me
Why I Started This Journey
Life moves fast, and somewhere between chasing deadlines, managing responsibilities, and striving for more, I realized I was losing myself in the process. Hustle culture had convinced me that success meant constantly pushing harder, achieving more, and never slowing down. But deep down, I knew something was missing: balance, peace, and the freedom to prioritize my mental health and wellbeing.
That’s why I created Drifting Towards Simplicity. It’s my space to redefine success, embrace intentional living, and have honest conversations about mental health, mindset shifts, and finding joy in everyday moments.
My Story
I’m Kendra Horne, a Canadian native living in Dallas, TX, with my husband and our four children, aged 8 to 21. Both personal and professional experiences have shaped my life, as I have built a successful career in retail, collaborated with top companies, and traveled to exciting destinations, while navigating the challenges of mental health struggles, work-life balance, and finding simplicity amidst chaos.
I was diagnosed with Major Depressive Disorder in my mid-teens, and throughout my 20s and 30s, I’ve faced significant emotional challenges. Now, as I approach 40, I’m choosing to rewrite the narrative. I don’t want to spend the next two decades in the same struggle; I want to live with purpose, prioritize mental wellness, and embrace a slower, more fulfilling way of life with my family.
So here I am, sharing my journey and inviting you to join me as I explore:
- Honest Conversations on Mental Health
- Mindset Shifts for Intentional Living
- Realistic Tips & Tricks for Work-Life Balance
- + So Much More!
If you’re ready to let go of unrealistic expectations, simplify life, and focus on what truly matters, I’d love you to be part of this journey. Let’s support each other, share our stories, and move toward a life that feels lighter, freer, and deeply fulfilling.
