Catrin Atkins tells the tales of her personal journey, how her fierce independence was born leading her to take on challenges at times when most of us would think there was enough to deal with! Born in North Wales with spina bifida and hydrocephalus, Cat realised that, despite a doctor's limiting beliefs, she can do whatever she wants and has a strong desire to keep pushing her own boundaries. In this podcast, Cat shares this journey - how people respond to her normal based on their normal, her new role as an ambassador for the Shine charity, tales of trips to Canada, her current 365 miles in 365 days walking challenge for Shine. In her business life, Cat founded Women in Tech Cymru and now works a director of her own company - Sonix Software - alongside her husband. Cat has loads of exciting plans for the future - which she'll be sharing with you throughout this podcast. Join Cat as she shares tales and thought provoking insights into her life.
