Meet the Guest
Kat Bell is a legal assistant with 27+ years in the legal industry who is taking a break to fulfill a dream, challenge herself, and do something that not many of us would willingly do:
Spend months hiking 2,190 miles from Georgia to Maine along the Appalachian Trail. Kat was awarded a partial scholarship from the One More Day on the Appalachian Trail nonprofit organization to help fund this lifelong dream of hers.
She is hoping that this will also inspire and encourage others, particularly abuse survivors, to give them a spark of hope that no matter how broken or dark their past is…they can shine and thrive and do hard things and achieve big goals.
