Kate's 6'1" Height Is Constantly Commented On. Here's How She Embraced It.

As a teenager, Kate Robertson didn’t want to be seen or talked about. Accomplishing that was easier said than done, especially since she was “hovering over everyone else.”

“As you get older, most of us get more confident,” Robertson said. Meeting other tall women at university helped, too.
