Her artistic self remained stifled and separate from her professional life until she made the bold decision to leave the corporate sphere and fully embrace her passion for artistry.Before making this complete transition, Kathrin explored life coaching—a novel field at the time—benefiting from opportunities presented through her work in human resources. She was among the first to experience this emerging profession, even working with one of Vancouver’s pioneering life coaches, Teresa Laroque. This journey marked the beginning of Kathrin’s shift away from business conventions toward a life of creativity and self-expression.***************************************************************You can connect with David Gouthro at:Website:https://davidgouthro.com/  (where you can also subscribe to my Blog)LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/davidgouthro/NOTE: If you wish to join in the podcast fun, please click here to book your own episode with me: https://calendly.com/gouthro/podcast-pals!
