[The Knowledge Project Ep. #117] Kat Cole: The Power of Possible

Shane: I was trying to think about where to start this. And I think a good place to start is the dark side of gratitude. What does that expression mean to you and where does it come from?

Kat: Yeah, it’s funny. I’m definitely known for leading with gratitude. So it’s an ironic statement from someone like me. But I remember when my mom came to me when I was nine years old and said, that’s it, I’m done, we’re leaving. And what she meant was we were leaving my dad. My dad was and is a very good man, but at the time was an alcoholic and he had a wife and three young daughters at home, nine, me, six and three, my two sisters. And I had been in multiple car accidents with him drunk driving by the time I was nine.
