She hides the secret of her family’s history of mental illness that can be dreadful for her life. Even Kat suffers from Bipolar disorder.
Season 1 beautifully describes the story of Kat not giving up her dream. Kat and her partner Justin face several odds like physical injury, mental stress, lack of finances, and a dream for the Olympics. The series follows Kat’s and Justin’s families as well. There is also an approach to assault where Kat suspects that Mitch, Serena’s coach, is trying to get close to her. Spinning Out is a fictional story that has no real-life connection.
