Katie Lloyd, Director of Business Development at The Bevy
A little bit more about yourself:
LA native living in NYC, UC Berkeley alum, food & fitness enthusiast, happiest by a body of water, Hufflepuff at heart
How you start your day:
Hydrate (with a glass of water and a cup of apple cider vinegar, turmeric, ginger and lemon), meditate, workout! Those are my non-negotiables in the morning
How you fill your day:
Typically, with FaceTime calls with potential new members for The Bevy! We’ve recently had a lot of success with virtual setups. When I am not working I am either reading/learning something new, painting or tanning on my couch
How you end your day:
I check-in with my family, watch the sunset, make dinner with my boyfriend and then either play a game of backgammon/darts or watch the occasional show before getting ready for bed. Recently, I also situate at my window and clap for the healthcare heroes
Go-to recipe:
Baked empanadas + chimmichurri – everything tastes better wrapped in delicious homemade dough
Go-to beverage:
A glass of Sancerre
Go-to take out:
Sauce Pizzeria @saucepizzerianyc
Always in your kitchen:
Avocados – I eat one everyday
Always in your home:
Flowers/white roses
“Feel good” song:
It’s a tie between I Say A Little Prayer (Aretha Franklin) & Let’s Get Loud (JLO)
Ultimate self care tip or ritual:
Do what works for you. There are so many “tips” out there for what you SHOULD be doing, it can get overwhelming. Create a routine that YOU feel good about. If you connect with it, you’re more likely to be consistent with it.
What’s inspiring you right now:
The Happiness Lab podcast. I’ve cried listening to at least 3 of their episodes this past week because I was so moved. Also constantly inspired by organizations like @hashtag_inmyscrubs & @invisiblehandsdeliver who are pulling together to help healthcare workers and people in our community during this time

Your home away from home:
Poolside at Soho House New York – I love and miss everyone who works there, they are fun to be around and always make it feel like home.
Daydreaming of being:
Caymans Islands (supposed to be on their white sand beaches as we speak!)
