About Me

Hi! I’m Kalie — founder Held & Rooted Inc, community builder OC Black Moms, and voice behind Silk & Cedar. I’m deeply passionate about cultivating meaningful spaces for women, getting lost in historical fiction, exploring new corners of the world, and, one day, genuinely learning to enjoy the art of cooking.

After five beautiful years building the OC Black Moms community, that community will soon continue its next chapter inside the Held & Rooted app, a more intentional space we’re building for connection, resources, and real-life community.

Silk & Cedar now serves as my personal corner of the internet: a place for reflections on motherhood, marriage, culture, ambition, and modern life. Hope to see you IRL soon, but in the meantime… stay awhile and enjoy.
