Kate describes herself as intensely social, deeply connected to music, sometimes too trusting — and many other things. This is her life with Williams syndrome, a rare genetic condition she reflects on. We talk about growing up alongside her siblings and peers at different rhythms, navigating school and work while often being underestimated, competing at the Special Olympics World Games in Abu Dhabi, and her hopes for a partner and maybe a family.

I'm Léa Hirschfeld, and this is Out of Sync: exploring life through disability, one story at a time.
