What happens when your worst bosses plant seeds that turn into your best lessons?

In this episode of Workfluencer, Kat Kibben—author, speaker, and founder of Three Ears Media—joins Rhona to talk about healing work trauma, rebuilding confidence, and writing a book that almost didn’t happen.

Kat opens up about the three-year journey behind The Bounce Back Factor, van life lessons that rewired their approach to leadership, and why editing was harder than writing. You’ll hear the story behind their first flat tire, the imposter syndrome that nearly killed the book, and the harsh feedback that forced Kat to rewrite the ending—but made it stronger.

This is the author interview no publicist would approve—the messy, honest, behind-the-scenes story of what it really takes to bounce back.
