ello, my name is Kat Calhoun, and here is a little bit about myself:

     At the moment, I appear to be a single mom with two wonderful daughters living in Northern California. They are strong, intelligent, articulate, artistic, energetic and independent. I am also host to a couple of international students here to study the English language and our American culture intensively. We enjoy sharing the cultural diversity of their countries and ours.

     Yo comprendo un poquito de espanol y me gustaria mejor.

     I’m a recreational triathelete. My annual big event for fitness is a run-bike-kayak triathlon. I’ve now started intense swimming so plan to do other short triathlons this summer.

     My girls & I love the water. We have a canoe and spend as much time as possible on or near our local river and bike trails.

     My name is Kat, pronounced like “cat.” I am not very domesticated, although I do like cooking & sewing. I enjoy speaking in public and have sometimes been a performing musician (in bands & orchestras). I enjoy many activities with children whether my own or in groups.

     In the last year I’ve also taken up ballroom dancing with some Latin and country, too. I love the physical activity and social contact. I’ve recruited others to dance. Knowing L. Ron Hubbard’s study technology also makes it easier to learn new physical skills such as dancing.

     My children both study Scientology courses and enjoy the content, the successes, and the new friends.

     More than a decade ago I had cancer. My certainty of my spiritual life gave me strength to heal and overcome the barriers. In 1989, I joined Toastmasters to improve my public speaking skills. Part of this was to find ways to talk about my cancer episode as I felt people needed to know there are alternatives to death and the more we are educated the easier to deal with pain and suffering and find solutions. Dianetics and Scientology offer many solutions to those who are not terminally ill. My cancer never advanced that far and even though it has never been directly addressed in Dianetics or Scientology, for me the materials I have studied and my personal realizations have given me the conviction to be a survivor and learn to find the opportunity or blessing in every crisis, and to learn how to turn adverse motions to a better advantage. It’s tough sometimes. But I know the dynamic principles of life and I use them. It’s not just “belief” but it is certainty and application, in other words RESULTS!

     I am also available for keynote addresses, seminars or full day workshops. My favorite topics are in areas of communication, leadership and education. Further descriptions include topics such as how to set and accomplish goals, balance and improve your life, raising happy children, and general life improvement for personal or business applications. I enjoy being a student or participant as much as being the trainer, speaker or facilitator.

     I love life and live it with enthusiasm. Since you’ve read this far, it’s time we got in touch and communicate to find some win-win ways to build a friendly relationship. I look forward to hearing from you.
