Finding humor in the midst isn’t just the name of Kate’s workshop series, it’s her life’s philosophy. Her best advice? Always carry a notebook and pen because you don’t write comedy, you just write it down. Kate believes humor is medicine and each of us has a unique role to play in offering that medicine to others. Is there anything better than making others laugh and learning not to take ourselves too seriously?

Her most brilliant career advice? Find your unique voice – the journey is longer, but you’ll have much more staying power once you hit your stride.
