When deciding whether to take on a project, do something challenging, or try something new altogether, Katie Mack chooses the adventure. Nearly 3 years sober and someone who has been in and out of the rooms for a long time, Mack is a storyteller who is an actor, writer, podcast creator, and producer. She created the brilliant, Webby Award-winning podcast “Fucking Sober”, and she’s a former This Is My Brave cast member - apropos given that we’re putting on a show Oct. 13 in DeKalb, Illinois.
TRIGGER WARNING: This conversation includes discussions of substance abuse and mental illness.
