Kathy shares how her ADHD traits, once dismissed as being "scatterbrained", have become her greatest strengths in both life and art.From rebuilding her life after personal tragedy to becoming one of the fastest caricature artists in the world, Kathy opens up about resilience, creativity, faith, and the power of leaning into your neurodivergence.
