“Kat's questions are absolute gold and she delivers them so seamlessly that she puts me to shame…
I could legit listen to Kat's voice all day.”
- Zoe Edwards, Check Your Thread
I have always loved connecting with people. When meeting someone new, I get curious about their histories and what “makes them tick”! As a social worker, I had lots of practice honing my interviewing skills. It turns out that these skills transfer really well to the world of podcasting!
In 2025 I was honoured to be invited by Zoe Edwards, host of popular sewing and sustainability podcast Check Your Thread (my favourite podcast!) to create content for her show. Starting in 2026, I am contributing an interview every month! Read on for information about episodes I contributed to. Don’t forget to check out all of Zoe’s other amazing and inspiring episodes at her website or in your podcast app!
