Katy is a co-founder of the Joyful Forklift project. She conducts the interviews, creates content, coaches clients, and helps with the creative process.

Katy is a teacher and coach at heart. She has been supporting people of all ages through music, yoga, mindfulness and mentorships for over 20 years. It is in these roles where she discovered a love of listening to others and to herself – this is where her growth and creativity blooms.

In her experience, assuming the role in the Seat of the Teacher, is done best through authentic, non-judgmental relationship building. This is fundamentally sacred to her. It’s about participating in the practice and process of meaning, of celebrating humanity with humility, and keeping the door firmly open to the light of love that resides within all people. 

Joy is a gift that keeps on giving. Katy thrives creating experiences and conversations that buzz with joy. And it is this joy – this thing we get to experience in this life on this planet, that gives and gives and gives. To notice this, to talk about it, to work on projects that create experiences of it, is one of the greatest blessings in her life.
