About Me
My name is Kate Milliken and I am determined to prove to the healthcare world that oversharing can be good for you. I am immersed in the personal stories of people living with chronic illness as the founder of MyCounterpane. I started this when I was diagnosed with MS in 2006. I saw a need for moment-based, first-hand content that could be tagged with an emotion to make it immediately helpful and easily searchable- I had wanted to find a person that knew from living with the illness that I was going to get better and now we have the largest content library of searchable moments living with MS and we are continuing to grow to other conditions and beyond. Pre- MS, I founded Milligrace Productions, a video production company specializing in mini-documentaries for private, corporate and non-profit clients. I have worked in television for more than 15 years, off camera as a producer for the View and VH-1 and as a correspondent in alternative sports (such as snowboarding, mountain biking and monster trucks) where I worked for Fox Sports NET, TNT, TNN the Outdoor Life Network and Oxygen. I have a master understanding of the power of the human testimonial in video and this is the angle which makes me different. Turns out in this day and age, this knowledge is timely and enormously powerful in conjunction with personal storytelling. I live in Bronxville, NY with a kickass husband and two young children, a son whose love for LeBron James is pure and a daughter who wages a daily war with a hairbrush.
