Today is the continuing conversation with Katie Kain.

Katie has been singing her whole life. She has a passion for teaching kids the joy of music. Katie grew up taking voice lessons, doing musical theatre, and dance. She has been teaching for 12 years and has a gift for bringing out the best in her students. Katie graduated from the University of Oklahoma with a Master’s Degree in Human Relations. Katie is wife to Nathan, and mom to Jazmine, Alonso, and Andres. She loves coffee, fall, and quiet mornings before her kids wake up.

Her children's theatre company is called Center Stage. At Center Stage, their primary goal is to build confidence in our students! They accomplish this goal through several avenues including music, drama, and performance. Their vision is that each student will leave their class more confident, more proud of who they are, and having had an amazing experience. Their mission is to give every student the chance to shine, be in the spotlight, and get out of their comfort zone!

Katie's story is not only compelling, but a primary example of what it means to have another person give of themselves in a mentoring relationship. In today's episode, Katie openly discusses her struggles with OCD and Tourette's and how the arts helped her discover freedom and helped her pursue her life's calling.
