Catt Sadler Catt Sadler award-winning journalist. mommy. limit-defying potentialist.

Catt Sadler is an Emmy Award-winning journalist. She founded and is president of the Hollywood chapter of Women Like Us, a foundation started by her mother to enhance the lives of women in need around the globe. [www.womenlikeusfoundation.org/hollywood]

Living with purpose is most meaningful to me. My specific purpose is my children. I have two boys, ages ten and six.

I don’t recall growing up playing house, or thinking much about being a mother. I’m not overly domestic and never have been. My pursuits as a young woman were less about achieving professional success and more about determining my purpose and following my passion. My life on TV came before motherhood, and as passionate as I was about my career, once I looked into my son’s eyes for the first time, I knew my life was forever changed. 

Fortunately, I was raised to put value on personal character, virtue, and honest experiences. I was taught that pretty is as pretty does. Working in a sometimes superficial business, it’s easy to get blinded by the bright lights of Hollywood. Luckily, because my priorities are in place and because of my children, my feet stay planted solidly on the ground. I make choices every day based on what matters most to me. 

To lead a truly meaningful life, we must let go of the expectations of those around us and realize that we humans are all connected. Serving others is how true meaning evolves. 

I look for miracles in the mundane. I expect excellence from myself and others. I ask myself the toughest questions in order to learn more about what’s held me back. When we’re honest with ourselves, we have the freedom to determine our purpose and, as a result, to come to know meaningful living.

I’m trying to push myself as a humanitarian and as an American. I’m trying to educate myself about our country, our government, and how it operates. I’m trying to determine how I can help make change for the better. For me, for my children, for their future, and for our planet.

Mostly, I strive for enlightenment. I know there’s much I don’t know. I hope to learn more today, tomorrow, and in all the months and years to come. Our potential is massive. I want to maximize what I’ve been given.
