Compassion in a T-Shirt: In Session with Dr Kate Watson
“I believe that advocacy is lending your power or your voice to someone or something who needs it.”
Dr. Watson is a public speaker, author, and podcaster, as well as President and Founder of The Advocacy Academy, based in Philadelphia, USA. She has conducted educational workshops throughout the US and internationally, and across many fields: healthcare, education, social services, financial advising, victim advocacy, corrections, and leadership. In addition to her speaking and consulting work, Dr. Watson sits on the Board of Directors for The Lady Parts Collective, which is a Los Angeles-based theater company specializing in the development of work relevant to women in the United States. She is also a Director Emeritus for the Motivational Interviewing Network of Trainers. Dr. Watson is the author of the recently published book, Only Trying to Help, which is also the name of her podcast, now in its 5th season.
