Cat talks about an out of character decision she recently made in which she hid the truth about where she came from out of fear of being judged. She uncovers her feelings on her family’s humble means and having had the opportunity to prosper in the U.S. because of their sacrifices. Although not one of her proudest moments, she turned this into a lifelong lesson and hopes to plant a seed of pride in anyone who finds themselves in a similar situation.

"Be 100% transparent about you, about your parents, about your family. The struggle the sacrifices, all of it was for a reason and was definitely meant to put you where you are right now."
