Raised in a military family and having moved multiple times during her childhood, Kathy opens up about her connection to music, specifically how Bruce's songs like 'The River' and 'No Surrender' resonate deeply with her personal experiences. The conversation also delves into Kathy's background in education, her passion for teaching, and the transformative power of integrating music and arts into the classroom. Tune in to hear how Kathy found her 'church' in Bruce's music and how she continues to find joy and community in the Springsteen fandom. 00:00 Introduction and Patreon Shoutouts 01:19 Meet Kathy: A Journey from Utah to Nevada 03:05 Military Family Background 05:53 Growing Up with Music and Books 12:41 Disco
