They Can't Take This From You: Coming Back to Your Practice, Again and Again

In this solo episode, Kat gets honest about a lesson she's still relearning 15 years in: protecting her own art practice. An inspiring gallery visit and a painful past experience resurfacing reminded her of what matters, how to protect it, and understand the value of our art and personal relationship to it.

• The artist's date that reminded Kat to get back to the pure joy of art
• Her past solo show cancellation, and what resurfacing it taught her
• Why not every gallery experience is a bad one, and how to find the right partners
• How her first sloppy 100-day challenge changed her relationship to painting
• Chasing validation vs. finding satisfaction in showing up

Kat's Spend More Time With Your Art Challenge starts July 15, 2026. It's a 21-day commitment to showing up for your own practice, open to any medium. It is not a painting course (though three of Kat's own painting examples are included), it's about reclaiming your relationship with your art, one small commitment at a time.
