## Resource

Katy O'Brian has an extensive filmography: The Running Man, Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning, Queens of the Dead, Twisters, Loves Lies Bleeding, The Mandalorian, and of course, she first captured our hearts in a little zombie comedy called Z Nation! She's worked with everyone from Tom Cruise to Glen Powell to Kristen Stewart, but this might be the most important role of her life: Couples Therapy guest! While Katy is an even-keeled person, we peel back the layers and talk how she learned to be vulnerable in Indiana, navigating friendships when you are a focused & ambitious person, dealing with crippling misophonia, martial arts and 5th grade bullies, being disciplined, only leaving the house for a ribfest or a jazzfest and SO MUCH MORE!
