Hello! I am Kat
For over three decades, I have guided individuals into deep philosophical and practical domains of personal development — guiding workshops, facilitating events and retreats, creating spaces where creativity and curiosity can flourish.
I love the theatre and excitement of creating a live experience for people that can help us all come closer to what is truly important in life. Whether I’m working intimately with a small group, performing or speaking on a big stage, my goal is the same: to create an experience that resonates deeply and allows us all to connect to what sustains and inspires us.
Speaking Engagments
I am always thrilled to be asked to speak for any event, always up for the challenge of creating something special.
I’ve had the privilege of speaking to audiences of all sizes, from a sea of 6,000 faces to countless smaller events. Each experience has taught me how to engage with people in ways that ignite reflection, meaningful connection, hope and inspiration.
