Kathy's 5 Steps


How the 5 steps fit in
Establishing The Real Foundation testifies to my own empowerment. As I continue to grow The Real Foundation, I feel more and more impassioned, connected, and alive.

The Application Guidelines for The Real Foundation use the five steps as a framework for determining where to disperse funds. Our ideal project supports women as they engage the difficult emotional work that precedes serious and lasting life changes.

My 5 steps represent the arc of my experience on "Survivor: Marquesas." I invested in the show and all it demanded of me; I challenged myself physically and emotionally; I accepted my strengths and weaknesses, and those of other players; I discovered new truths about myself and group dynamics; and I evolved into a woman with the courage to look at herself clearly and change her life.

We applaud the guts, grit, and stamina it takes for women to grapple with their own inner workings, and are open to unique initiatives.The Real Foundation grants are our way of saying, "You have the power to do anything, and we support whatever it takes to get there."
