Kat is an artist, a facilitator, a counsellor, and a bat enthusiast. Kat’s pronouns are they and them.
Kat and Lacey cover all the usual bases plus a couple of new ones. That's right, two new questions debut in this episode! Kat works in the mental health field and brings some insights from that, as well as some very interesting bat facts!
