Promises worth making and keeping Oct 28, 2024

So, here's the thing. We all make promises, right? Promises to ourselves about showing up, doing the things we say matter to us, and yet sometimes—especially when we’re tired, grumpy, or just not feeling it—we slack off. I had one of those mornings. Crap sleep, not in the mood, and all I wanted to do was skip my 3-good-minute practice. I almost didn’t do it. But in those three minutes—literally just three minutes—everything shifted. I was reminded of just how much those small, oh-so-little practices actually are treasure for the soul. They’re not just “habits” or “things to tick off the list.” They’re a way to reconnect, to remind ourselves of who we are, and what we care about.
That got me thinking—where are we placing our fucks? Are we giving our energy to the promises we said we'd make matter? And if not, why? Why do we say these things are important but then ditch them when the mood doesn’t feel right? It’s in these little moments, these small practices, that we build the foundation for the big things. And when we keep skipping them, what we’re really skipping is the chance to nourish ourselves on a deeper level.
After my 3-good-minute practice, a message came through so clearly: it’s the simple things that do funny things to our hearts. Moments like watching the moon’s shine, the stars, the wind moving through a plant, and it hit me—those simple, quiet moments have so much more to offer than the ego could ever recognize. They’re where the magic is. So, no matter how tired, grumpy, or off I am, I’ll keep showing up for those three good minutes because they move me in ways I can’t even explain. And I bet they’ll do the same for you if you give them a chance.

Moving to the different rhythms of life Oct 21, 2024

In today's episode I talk about the rhythms of life and why it’s so damn important to recognize and respect them. Life isn’t meant to be lived in a constant sprint, nor is it about chilling in sloth mode all the time. It’s about knowing when to sprint, when to run, when to jog, when to walk, and when to just sit the fuck down and embrace the nothingness. Each rhythm has its own place and purpose, and if we’re always stuck in one gear, we end up paying the price—whether it’s burnout or letting our dreams slip through the cracks.
Coming off the back of my book launch and tour, I’m deep in this right now. The pace has shifted. I’ve hit that phase where I’m taking a slow-ass walk, and it’s exactly what I need. I could easily get caught up in the momentum and keep running, but I know better. If I push myself to sprint after months of nonstop effort, my well-being will suffer. And let’s be real, what’s the point of all the success if I’m too exhausted to actually enjoy it? The slow walk isn’t about being lazy or slacking off; it’s about preserving my energy and recalibrating before the next push. It’s intentional. It’s necessary.
It’s not always easy, though. There’s a little voice in my head saying, “You should be doing more,” trying to convince me that if I’m not moving at full speed, I’m somehow failing. But I’m choosing to trust the rhythm I’m in right now because I know what’s at stake if I don’t. There’s a cost to living in a constant sprint—it’s your well-being, your peace of mind. But there’s also a cost to staying in the land of “sit back and wait,” where you’re not pushing at all, and that’s the cost of your potential, your dreams, your growth.
So, wherever you’re at in the rhythm of your life, honor it. If you need to sprint, give it everything you’ve got. If you’re in a walking phase like I am right now, lean into it. The rhythm will change, as it always does, but what matters is that you’re paying attention to the pace your life is calling for.

Kat & Steve - Remembering what matters Oct 14, 2024

Steve and I had one of those weeks where we both found ourselves caught up in focusing on what wasn’t going right, what was missing, or what we thought we should be doing better. It happens, right? You get into a headspace where you’re just seeing everything through this lens of ‘not enough.’ And when you’re in that space, it’s not just you who feels it; it impacts the whole dynamic. We were both touchy and disconnected, almost like roommates just getting by.
Then we decided to actually talk about it, which—let’s be honest—can be hard to do when you’re in that kind of mindset. But as soon as we acknowledged what was going on, it was like a weight lifted. We decided to make a conscious shift, focusing on what we do have and what’s right here, right now. And it changed everything. It didn’t just lighten our moods; it lifted the whole vibe in the house.
That night turned into one of those spontaneous, beautiful moments where we found ourselves singing, dancing, and just being present with each other. It wasn’t planned or forced; it was just a natural result of deciding to show up differently. It reminded me how quickly things can turn around when you’re willing to shift your perspective—even just a little bit. Sometimes, it’s the smallest adjustments that lead to the most significant changes.

A real life update Sep 30, 2024

I want to share some real-life updates with you – the and-ness of life. My life right now is amazing. My book is out there, I’m working with incredible clients, and I feel deeply aligned with my purpose. But here’s the thing – alongside all of that, my old patterns still show up. Those sneaky thoughts that want to pull me back into old ways of thinking, like doubting myself, or feeling like I need to rush to get "there" – whatever 'there' is.

This podcast episode is about embracing both: the highs and the challenges. Life isn’t about waiting to reach some destination where everything’s perfect. It’s about recognising that great things can happen while difficult things are happening too. I’m in the very practice right now that it’s okay to hold space for both – to feel gratitude for the good, and at the same time, navigate the hard stuff without making it mean I’m doing something wrong.

We’re so conditioned to think life should be all sunshine or all storm – but that’s not the whole picture. It’s the and-ness of life that we need to normalise. We can be thriving in one area while still working through old patterns in another. It’s all part of the ride. So, let’s talk about how we can navigate this together without constantly chasing the illusion of “there.” We’re already here, and that’s more than enough.

Kat & Steve - Relationships & Gratitude Sep 16, 2024

Lately, Steve and I have been making a real effort to focus on gratitude, and it’s been a game changer. It’s easy to fall into the trap of noticing what the other hasn’t done, isn’t doing, or the little habits that get under your skin. But with gratitude, it shifts where our attention goes. Instead of zeroing in on what’s missing, we’re paying attention to what’s right in front of us—what we *are* doing for each other.
It’s not fluffy or forced, either. Gratitude isn’t about pretending everything is perfect, but it keeps us from getting stuck in the usual patterns of taking things for granted. Steve doesn’t need to do anything huge to make me feel appreciated. It’s the small stuff, like how he’ll step up and do something I didn’t expect, or even just his consistency that I might’ve overlooked before. When I take a second to actually notice, it shifts my mindset from irritation to, "Yeah, he’s got my back."
And the thing is, when we make gratitude a habit, it creates less space for resentment to build. We all have annoying habits or things we forget to do, but when we’re genuinely practicing gratitude, those things don’t seem as big of a deal. It keeps the focus on what’s working, and we end up appreciating each other more for it. It’s not magic, but it definitely helps keep things in perspective.

Perimenopause is here and I'm talking about it! Sep 02, 2024

Perimenopause—who knew this was even a thing? Not me! I always thought menopause was something that just suddenly happened when you hit a certain age, but perimenopause? That’s a whole different beast, and I’m right in the thick of it. It’s like this sneaky, slow-motion transition where your body starts doing things you never expected, and you’re left wondering what the hell is going on.
I’ve been navigating it as best as I can, but let me tell you, it hasn’t been easy. There are days when I feel like I’m losing my mind—literally. The brain fog, the mood swings, the physical changes—it's all so intense. It’s like my body is rewriting the rulebook, and I didn’t get the memo. I’ve been sharing these frustrations openly on Instagram because, honestly, I had no idea this was even a thing, and I know I’m not alone. If I can shine a light on what perimenopause really looks like, maybe it’ll help someone else feel a little less lost.
Thankfully, I’ve called in the big guns—Dr. Kirstey Holland. She’s been an absolute game-changer, helping me get my gut, brain, and hormones back to some kind of new normal. It’s a journey, and it’s not about getting back to the old me, but finding a new balance, a new way of being in this body that’s changing whether I like it or not. I’m learning to work with these changes, rather than against them, and it’s been a real lesson in patience, acceptance, and finding new ways to care for myself.
If you’re in this with me, just know you’re not alone, and it’s okay to reach out for help. This isn’t something we have to navigate on our own, and there’s power in sharing our stories and supporting each other through it.

Kat & Steve - Relationships & True Support Aug 19, 2024

Lately, I've been reflecting on what truly makes a relationship successful, and one thing stands out: in a strong, healthy relationship, you never try to bring the other person down when they're shining in their light. Instead, you lift them up, cheer them on, and celebrate their successes as if they were your own. As I'm gearing up for the launch of my book, I've been feeling this more than ever, especially with Steve, my husband, by my side.

Steve has been my #1 cheerleader through this entire process. There hasn’t been a single drop of insecurity or jealousy—just pure, unwavering support. He’s the first to encourage me, to remind me of how far I've come, and to push me to keep going when I start doubting myself. It’s a kind of support that makes me feel even more connected to him because I know he's genuinely happy to see me succeed.

In moments like these, I realize just how lucky I am to have a partner who is not only secure in himself but also deeply invested in our shared journey. Steve’s encouragement has allowed me to shine even brighter, knowing that he’s right there with me, cheering me on every step of the way. It's a reminder that in the best relationships, you both rise together, and that kind of love and support is what truly makes a partnership thrive.

All In Good Time Aug 05, 2024

Recently, I found myself journaling about the phrase "all in good time." As I was writing, I noticed how much my ego wanted to rush, push, and brute force my way through the process. There was this constant sense of urgency and impatience, a nagging feeling that if I didn't hurry, everything would fall apart. Beneath this impatience, I recognized a deeper, more profound fear of failure, especially with the launch of my book.

The pressure I was putting on myself was immense. I felt like I had to get everything right, and get it right quickly. My mind was racing with thoughts of deadlines, expectations, and the endless to-do lists that seemed to grow longer by the minute. In the midst of this chaos, the simple phrase "all in good time" emerged. It was like a gentle reminder from a wiser, calmer part of myself to slow down and trust the process.

These four words—"all in good time"—became a mantra that helped ease the angst and stress I was feeling. Every time I felt the urge to rush or push too hard, I would remind myself of this phrase. It acted as an anchor, keeping me grounded and bringing me back to the present moment. I realized that success doesn't come from forcing things to happen, but from allowing them to unfold naturally and organically.

By embracing "all in good time," I've been able to release some of the pressure and find a more balanced, peaceful approach to my work. It’s a reminder that everything has its own pace, and that forcing things often leads to burnout and frustration. This mindset has kept me close to the ground, more connected to my purpose, and less caught up in the whirlwind of my ego’s demands. It's a lesson I'm grateful for, and one that I hope to carry with me as I continue on this journey.

What's your relationship with listening? Jul 22, 2024

Lately, I've been immersing myself in the art of listening, and it's been a transformative journey. I started journaling about my experiences with listening, prompted by Julia Cameron's book The Listening Path. Her insights have guided me to pay closer attention not only to the words people say but also to the deeper meanings and emotions behind them. Through my journaling, I've begun to notice patterns in my own listening habits, especially within my family dynamics.

One of the biggest revelations has been realising how often I cut people off, especially my family members. I catch myself assuming what they're going to say next or tuning out when I think I already know the gist of their message. Journaling about these moments has helped me become more aware of them. It's humbling to see how these habits can create distance in our relationships and prevent truly meaningful connections.

By consciously working on these tendencies, I'm learning to be a better listener towards the people I love, allowing them to fully express themselves without interruption. This practice has not only deepened my relationships but also enriched my understanding of those around me. It's amazing how much more you can learn about someone when you genuinely listen without jumping to conclusions or planning your response while they're still talking.

I invite you to join me on this journey of becoming a better listener. Pay attention to how you listen to others—notice when you might be cutting them off, assuming their next sentence, or tuning out. Journaling about these observations can be a powerful tool to deepen your own relationship with listening. It's a practice that has the potential to transform not only how we connect with others but also how we understand and connect with ourselves.

How would you love 'it' to be? The 'it' being your life. Jul 08, 2024

I wrote this question down in my journal, played this song, closed my eyes, and let the answers find me.
The reason this question came up was due to writing the date, June 30th, at the top of my page and I thought, "wow, halfway through this year. How would I love the rest of it to be?" Then the question opened itself to the 'it' being 'life itself'.
Here's what came about ...
IMPACT - having major effect.
MEANINGFUL - worthwhile.
JOYFUL - great pleasure and happiness.
INTENTIONAL - done on purpose.
As I looked over my writings I thought, "shit yeah, that's how I'd love it to be! How great it would be to have major effect in the lives of my family, friends, loved ones and the world. To live a life that is worthwhile, create work in the world that is worthwhile. To do as such with great pleasure and happiness, and, on purpose.
This photo below sums the above up neatly. It was taken right after I finished recording my audiobook. This book has impact, meaning, was created on purpose, and written and recorded with great pleasure and happiness.
It begs the question, could all things be done this way? I'll come back to you on that.
Truly, how would you love it (your life) to be? And what would be your next best step to bring that way of life a little closer to you?
I'd love to read your insights and shares if you feel compelled to do so.

The lost self - no presence, no true essence Jun 24, 2024

Unhealed wounds from our past shape the personalities we present to the world, often causing us to make choices that align more with our trauma than with our true selves. These wounds can manifest as insecurities, fears, and defenses that influence how we interact with others and perceive our place in the world. When we don't address these wounds, we often wear masks that hide our authentic selves, leading us to make decisions based on the need for validation, acceptance, or protection rather than what truly resonates with our core values and desires.
I recently watched the series Dropout about Elizabeth Holmes, and it struck me how vividly it illustrated this point. Holmes, once a passionate innovator, gradually lost touch with her true essence. In her quest to become someone "important," she made choices that prioritized external success over internal integrity. This shift not only led to her downfall but also highlighted the dangers of losing sight of what is genuinely important.

When we make choices from our unhealed selves, we often end up pursuing paths that don't truly satisfy us or align with our deepest values. However, when we take the time to heal and reconnect with our true selves, our decisions become more authentic and fulfilling. Choices made from our true essence are guided by inner wisdom and genuine desires, leading us to a life that feels more aligned, purposeful, and meaningful. The contrast between living from our unhealed wounds and our authentic selves is profound, and the journey towards healing is not just beneficial but essential for living a truly fulfilling life.

The right kind of fucks to give Jun 03, 2024

It's easy to give a lot of care to things that, in the grand scheme of things, don't really matter. Our egos often convince us to prioritize superficial concerns, social status, and external validation. However, our true essence knows better. It guides us to focus on what truly matters, to give the right kind of fucks. Living authentically means aligning with this deeper wisdom, caring deeply about the things that genuinely enrich our lives and reflect our true values. It's about finding the courage to let go of ego-driven worries and instead, nurture what is truly right, good, and meaningful for our authentic selves.

Kat & Steve - Relationships & Holding Space May 27, 2024

This morning, Steve held space for me in the midst of a raw emotional release.
I've been doing EMDR therapy for the past five weeks now, allowing and processing the raw emotions from childhood sexual abuse that I haven't felt in its purity. No bloody wonder why - IT'S. A. LOT.
As I journaled this morning, the emotion of anger was right there and I felt it in all its power and fucked-off-ness. Steve could sense that I wasn't quite myself and I let him know I was processing some stuff. He was about to go on his merry way and leave me to it when he got an intuitive sense to come upstairs and ask me if I needed a hug. My little Miss Independent didn't want to let him in, but instead, I chose to drop into his arms and let out the raw emotion.
Today's episode is about both our takes on this situation and how holding space for the other in relationships is so damn necessary.

A life that feels right, good and true for you May 20, 2024

In my book I write about living a life that feels intrinsically right, good and true for us.
A life that we get to dance with and make up the dance moves and rhythm and pace as we go along.
A life that is so ours, so very much considered and intuited, a life that also considers the lives of others, all beings.
This is the life of someone who is in touch with their authentic nature and plugged into their core values, their heart, their truth. This is the life of someone who has chosen to step off the societal norm treadmill and dare ask, “hang on, is this even my life?”
I get it isn’t an easy question to ask because often we we ask the question, we’re bound to receive an answer from the well of truth that resides inside. At the same time, something in you is so relieved you’ve dared to ask because it, your true nature, can talk to you and guide you home to what you know deep down is right good and true for you.
Let us be willing, albeit scared, to dare ask if how we are living and how we are showing up is indeed true to who we are.

Your life, your pace, your rhythm May 13, 2024

Living true to our own pace and rhythm is about honoring the unique cadence of our lives, rather than conforming to the timelines imposed by society. It's a reminder that our journey is deeply personal and cannot be rushed or dictated by external expectations.
When we tune into our inner rhythm, we reconnect with our true essence—the part of us that knows what feels right and authentic. This means allowing ourselves the space to move, grow, and evolve at a pace that feels natural and aligned with our deepest desires. By embracing our individual journey and trusting in our own timing, we empower ourselves to live authentically and wholeheartedly, free from the pressure to measure up to society's standards.

What sustains your spirit? May 06, 2024

I had a magical moment this morning whilst sitting on the canal, listening to beautiful music and chatting with the forces at be.
For some time I have not been my most vital in energy and also in well-being. My guts are crook, pretty much always bloated, I've been experiencing brain fog, forgetfulness, losing the thread of thoughts and increasing fatigue. If I hadn't have known about per-menopause, which to be real I only heard of two years ago, I'd think I am quite literally losing my mind.
Anyway. When I am not right in my body, it is harder for me to connect to my Spirit and hear what it is wanting to share with me. After a session and being in the care of my dear friend and peri-menopause Queen, Dr Kirstey Holland, today I woke up for the first time in a long want feeling closer to and connected to my intrinsic nature.
So I took myself, my journal, airpods and chai latte for a stroll along the canal and sat on a bench. A moment with the forces at be and me. And boy did we have some seriously good chats.
In today's episode I share the insights that landed. Enjoy.

Kat & Steve - Relationships: Communicate or Detonate Apr 29, 2024

If you find it difficult to communicate what's on your mind and/or heart in your relationship or the person you're dating, do you know why?
Do you know the story that keeps you from sharing, speaking, expressing?
Do you know the wound that the story was built upon?
Do you know the things you tell yourself that leads to 'ahhh, it doesn't matter, I won't bother saying anything, all good."
Steve has helped me have the hard chats. Typically (in my default pattern) I avoid hard chats. I haven't liked the awkwardness and the underlying fear is usually "this will lead to it ending". I've learned through our relationship that you can have hard chats and be clear and kind, and remain together. A new belief I'm happy to have!
In today's episode we talk about how we frame up difficult conversations and why it matters to keep having them.

Finish the sentence - "I am tired of ..." Apr 22, 2024

"I am tired of tolerating ......"
"I am tired of accepting ...... in my relationship."
"I am tired of speaking to myself poorly."
"I am tired of these behaviours I keep playing out ......"
"I am tired of the way I show up at work events and around colleagues."
Once you have your answers, the next question is ...
What am I willing to do about this? What is my next best step?
Self enquiry leads to greater knowing of who you are behind the you you think you have to be. It's worth asking the question.

Do it afraid Apr 15, 2024

If I waited until I wasn't afraid to go after the things that mattered to my heart and my life, I'd be waiting a long (long) time.
A part of me was afraid to leave nursing, make my own money and create my own life.
A part of me was afraid to start my business, speak on stage, create programs, run events, write a book and put myself out there.
A part of me was afraid to fall in love, commit and get married.
Because what if I failed? What if I got hurt? What if I looked like an idiot? What if I fell flat on my face and somewhere, someone would say, 'told ya so!'
The truth is, a part of us is going to be afraid when we do, say or go for something that is beyond what we're used to doing. Let the fear be there instead of fight it or will it out of your existence before you go for that something.

A practice of self honour and respect Apr 08, 2024

You know those uplevels where it’s happening from the inside out? A grumble, a pulse, a rise of ‘something’ that is so darn powerful that you know it’s going to rearrange the way you see yourself, others and life?
It’s that space between letting go of the self that got you here and welcoming in the self you’ve been rooting for. There’s excitement, fear, unsureness (is that even a word?), curiosity, grief, gratitude, silence, noise, questioning, faith all at once.
If you find yourself here, may you save your fucks for giving thanks to the self that carried you to this very place and set your own practice of acknowledgement until it feels right in you. May you welcome in the self that seeks to be embodied with an ease, grace and warmth.

Kat & Steve - Relationships & Being Tested Apr 01, 2024

Steve and I are being tested at the moment. We're in sleep debt. We're sleeping in separate beds. Why? Lately, Steve's snoring has reached new heights and we've gotten into an anxious sleep cycle where Steve is worried he'll snore, so isn't getting deep sleep. I'm worried I'll hear him snore so I'm stressing about getting to sleep first.
This resulted in poor deep sleep and waking up feeling less than fresh. So, we're sleeping separate whilst Steve looks into his snoring and whilst we're catching up on sleep and beginning to be in sleep credit, the closeness of us is strained. Yes we cuddle when I come downstairs but it's different than falling asleep together and waking up snuggling.
And so, this is our reality and we're navigating with as much awareness as we can whilst being slightly off with one another. Not enough to be dire, but enough to feel it.
Today's episode is us sharing this in more depth and what we do when we're tested.

Sometimes it hurts to give a f*ck Mar 25, 2024

Animals have my heart. Period. When their true nature and innocence are taken advantage of, disregarded and used for pleasure, entertainment, food convenience and money, my soul breaks. Something breaks inside me.
A pig at MIDLAND BACON PIGGERY in Victoria Australia has been sexually assaulted by a male, the farm owners son in fact. @dominionmovement are doing their best to free Olivia the pig, @changedotorg have a petition to sign to apply pressure to surrender her so she can be taken into the hands of kindness and care.
Factory farmed animals have little regard in the legal system and therefore protection because they are seen as food and money makers. I get that farmers hands are often tied by the bigger corporations but to have farmers (humans) use their power against an innocent and confined animal quite literally fucks with my face.
We as consumers actually have the power to question where what we eat comes from and the lives those animals have lived. And we should, because green washing is peaking off its head. At the end of our forks are lives that have been lived, or, have been abused.
As you ponder this, and I really urge you to, please sign the petition in my stories or in my linktree to save Olivia and email rickoreilly@bigpond.com.au, the owner of MIDLAND BACON PIGGERY to surrender Olivia.
She, Olivia the pig, like all of us, has a right to know what kindness, freedom and living looks and feels like.
Sign this petition to apply pressure to release Olivia.
Sign this petition to demand stricter laws against beastiality in Victoria.

No longer needing an 'out' Mar 18, 2024

Previously I always looked for the metaphorical invisible door for me to escape. Where’s the exit when it gets tough, hard, too much, too close, too vulnerable? That door was something I kept very close to me.
But in the lead up to our wedding, writing vows to Steve and the girls, that door was disappearing. And on the day, our magnificent wedding day, it went. I was in. All the way in.
I know that I can leave at anytime, but I don’t want to. Before, it was a fantasy I played into a lot. Now, it’s not even an option unless it really needs to be an option.
That’s what has changed. All of me is in. This is a big deal due to my past and always needing “aloneness” to be safe. Aloneness is one of my coping strategies that is laying to rest. Now, my fks can be saved for loving with all of me, not just some of me.

Cleaning is one of my coping strategies Mar 11, 2024

There’s cleaning and then there’s CLEANING!
Everyone knows that I love a clean, tidy, aesthetically pleasing home. And the ones closest to me know when I’m cleaning because the house needs it, or when I clean because I need it.
Cleaning for me became a coping strategy when I was younger. There was a hidden memory jammed up inside me that was causing disturbance. I didn’t have conscious access yet to the memory but my body did. Waves of emotion would surge and the only way I knew to get rid of it in order to cope was to clean.
I rearranged my room, wardrobe, books, underwear, strip my sheets and all the rest to bring some kind of order back into the world. “Ahhhhh, now it’s right”, was the thought and feeling. But of course, it didn’t last long.
Now knowing this locked up memory, I used cleaning and still do at times to this day, as a way to gain control of reality. To make it right in my mind because my insides are having some sort of conniption. I try not to judge myself or tell myself I’m a failure at not fully healing this coping mechanism. The way I approach it now is by asking myself, “am I cleaning the house because the now needs to be cleaned, or am I cleaning the house because something in me feels out of control?”
This means I’m aware of what I’m doing, why I’m doing it and whilst I clean to gain control, I enquire, get curious and talk to the part of me inside that needs acknowledgement, love, care.
Always, a work in progress.

The Frustration of FFT's (first fucking time) Mar 04, 2024

I have to give thanks to Brene Brown for giving me the terminology for FFTs - first fucking time. Those experiences or situations you're in where it's new territory, new landscape and you're in pits of "what the fuck do I do here?"
It could be your FFT on a date after getting divorced, starting a podcast, having sex with a woman after being in a heterosexual relationship, writing a book, becoming a parent - basically anything for the first-fucking-time.
The stories in your head are loud. Your body isn't at ease or familiar with what is going on. There is no muscle memory of how to do this because, you've never done it before. And so, the limiting beliefs come up. The annoyances, frustrations, irritability and TO HELL WITH THIS rises.
Well, if you're there, then listen here, for how to manage yourself in an FFT.

Three Good Minutes Feb 26, 2024

When I was at my lowest, even doing something for three minutes felt almost impossible. Almost. But even at my worst, I could do something good for three minutes. Three minutes of anything that could get me out of my most negative thoughts, that could break my stuckness. To this day, whenever I’m feeling out of sorts and disconnected with my true self, I take a moment. I consciously redirect my attention to doing something that I know can help me regroup. All it takes is three good minutes.

Three good minutes of standing with your feet on the grass, eyes closed, hands on your heart.

Three good minutes of listening to a song that takes you straight ‘home’, standing, swaying, feeling.

Three good minutes of sitting on a park bench, watching the world go by, listening to the birds, the trees, life.

Three good minutes of finding the suns light in your home, standing in it and letting it drench your face.

Three good minutes of your feet in a body of water – the ocean, a creek, a puddle.

Not every one of these needs to be done everyday, it’s more a matter of choosing three good minutes in your day to do something that brings you home. That gives you that feeling of, Ahh, there I am. Three good minutes where you find yourself, say hi to yourself and feel good that you’re still there. Because three good minutes a day is better than no minutes a day. It’s better than nothing, isn’t it? It may seem small and insignificant, but in practice, it’s the small and insignificant done consistently that makes the big, significant shifts.

Kat & Steve - We got married! Feb 19, 2024

Our wedding was 100% us. There was nothing about it that catered to who we thought we had to be, what vows we thought we had to write, who we thought we had to invite, what food and drinks we thought we should get, what we thought we had to wear, what photos we thought we should get and all the rest. Everything about it was us, which is why it was so damn magical.
The brief was - we want this to be an extension of us. Fun, casual, relaxed and epic vibes. And the day delivered it in spades. The amount of times we heard, "this wedding is so you guys", "your wedding is so real and authentic from the ceremony, vows, speeches, the lot", "this day is how all weddings ought to be", was endless. And we felt it too.
Today we share about our day, our highlights, why it was a blessing to wait to get married now instead of 2020 and how important it is to stay true to your real and genuine self when it comes to big days like these.

I'm Writing a Book Feb 12, 2024

I’ve done my best to keep this under wraps since April 2022 and now I can let the Penguin out of the bag! It’s with a big beating heart that I can now share openly that I’m writing my first book with @penguinbooksaus 🐧.
When I received an email from them wanting to chat about the possibility of writing a book, I thought I was being scammed (lol), like for real. But it was indeed legit and I’m so stoked to fulfil this calling of writing books and sharing my heart with you all.
August 18th is when she comes out into the world with pre orders coming soon.
It's been and still is a process that has asked a lot of me, and I am loving every moment of it.

Why She Left Love Off Her Intention Setting Feb 05, 2024

This is a ripper story. My beautiful client and now friend, KG, left love off her intention setting because she thought it'd never happen. She didn't want to feel the pain of it never coming true if she had it on her vision board, so, she left it off to not feel or address the wounds that were sitting underneath it all.
When I said to her, "is love and a relationship important to you?", she said, "Kat fucking John, GO AWAY!" And so, we went to work on what stories were in her head, what situations took place when she was younger and what she made that mean about her and love.
You'll love this epic episode with a very happy ending. But kudos to KG, she put in the hard yards and the "why the fuck am I doing this' work to call in real love.

Kat & Steve - Relationships & Back to Basics Jan 29, 2024

In this month's episode of us sharing insights into our relationship, we reflect and share how not-so-good we have been in the past six weeks, how at times we've been hanging on by a thread questioning our relationship, using some tools to 'get us by' and avoiding the real hard chats we needed to have.
Yeah, relationships are real, aren't they?
When two people are truly in love yet stuck in ego-town, it's vital to know the work and do the work to not give up on the work and reconnect to the end result of their relationship. We also share our personal experiences and vulnerabilities, making it uber clear that we are human and shit the bed at times when it comes to our relationship. The tools and back to basics is where it's at.

There Is A Future You ... Waiting Jan 22, 2024

Imagine that somewhere in your future there is a you who is grounded in who they are, knows who they are, connected to their intuition and true self, and who is so goddamn real and genuine that they ooze that special something.
Imagine how free and liberated that version of you must be to feel that way and how ace they are at navigating their own mind, ego trip wires and patterned responses. How cool must it be for them that they get to choose how they want to be rather than be who they think they have to be?
Imagine if you never met them. Imagine if you never game them the chance to go out into the world and play, meet people, call in opportunities and dance with life from that place. That would be soul crushing.
In today's episode I get real about the true impact of behaviours such as people-pleasing and overgiving, shedding light on the fine line between kindness from a place of self-respect and seeking external validation. We'll go into the personas we often wear and the tricky dance with our ego, any why authenticity is so damn important.

Tune in as I share insights on doing the inner work necessary for your future self to have a chance of being alive in your life! This episode is your invitation to embrace your authentic self and discover the inner freedom that comes with it.

Starting the year clear with intention Jan 15, 2024

Alrighty, first episode back for 2024! Let's go!
In this episode, I share what my theme for this year is and how I landed at it. From what it started out to be (receive), shifted to (abundance) and where it landed (plentiful), I also share what next best steps I am taking. You know, the little itty bitty ones that you think don't matter, but they really (really) do, and the importance of being devoted to the itty-bitty-steps and being unwavering in that devotion.
Listen up for a cracking start to the year and if you want to go deep into it, put a journal pen by your side, sign up for the 90 minute session because it's solid. Everyone who has done it have been gobsmacked and in tears and have found it really beneficial for setting up their year. So highly encourage it if you feel called to do so.
The big one to sign up for is the ZEROFKS program. I'll have a number of enrolments throughout the year. But holy shit, there is a section in module two. I can't give it away, but fuck, I wish I could. I just want to show you already. I just want to show it to you and be like, there it is. There it is, go and do it.
Oh, I was uploading the content and I was crying. It's something, it's really something special, powerful, potent. For those of you who are truly wanting to give less fucks this year to areas that don't serve you, to liberate yourself, if you want to feel lighter, more free, more clear, more grounded, unwavered, confident, all of those fucking sick ass words, then yeah, I really do hope that you join me for this. It's a six month coaching container. So when you sign up, you've got six months with me, we've got six live monthly calls together, and within that six month period, there are three major modules for you to work through. And each of those modules are so beautifully paced.

How My Theme For The Year Cracked Me Open Dec 18, 2023

The word and theme I worked and danced with this year was, "natures way", placing greater trust and faith in the great force and allowing it to crack me open where necessary.
In previous years I had hopes for the word and theme I set, often having in mind what I wanted it to do for me. But what I found was that it worked its way into other areas of my life that I'd left unattended and didn't give much attention to. So this year, I said, "you do what you gotta do and what is necessary for me to open my eyes and heart".
Today's episode shares those crackings, openings and widenings whilst sharing a few unexpected tears and breakthroughs mid episode.

Basic Bitch-ing Dec 11, 2023

One of the greatest tools in my Mary Poppins bag is to be a basic bitch. Meaning, when all the tools in my toolkit aren't hitting the mark and I'm in the midst of an inner shift, I turn to this. No journalling, no meditation, no positive affirmation-ing. Yes, I still take care of my well-being by going for walks, doing some yin yoga or even a dance class, but that's it.
I take the pressure off to "develop my way through this" and remain "spiritual" and instead, do the most simple, basic things in life that help me to feel good amidst a shift-storm.
Have a listen to today's episode if you are in need of basic bitching and dropping the waving of the high achiever flag.

Kat & Steve - Relationships & Conscious Communication Nov 27, 2023

We've been in the practice of a tool called the three gates. First shared by Rumi, he said, "At the first gate, ask yourself, “Is it true?” At the second gate ask, “Is it necessary?” At the third gate ask, “Is it kind?” If our words pass through these gates, we can be assured that we are aligned with our Highest Self."
Can I tell you, this practice is a tough one. Often we can get past the first gate, but the second and third is where Steve and I are stopped in our ego tracks and called towards greater self reflection. Sometimes our auto-pilot speech gets the better of us, but immediately we remember and remind one another of the gates. Other times, we are conscious and take what we wanted to say to each gate and either remain silent, or we look to rephrase or reword what we wanted to say.
It's giving us even greater possibility to be and speak from our authentic selves as opposed to ego chatter.
This tool is so damn good for your relationship with self, your intimate partner and children. Even when you're around friends and there's gossiping taking place, the three gates can be applied.

A Tool To Use When Your Tools Just Aren't Cutting It Nov 20, 2023

When all the meditating, yoga-ing, journaling, exercising, walking and everything else you have in your toolkit just isn't cutting it, here's one of my go-to's.
Sometimes, I just don't have the energy or gusto to "do the work" and basic-bitching is where it's at. Eat, move body, do what's needed, sleep, repeat. Plus, I say this little prayer in the mornings to the forces at be.
There are moments where you gotta let go and know that letting go is in fact part of "the work".

Self Enquiry - What have you been putting off? Nov 13, 2023

What have you been putting off? The thing that you know is kinda there, but your ego is doing a gnarly job of hiding it from you saying, "it's all good, don't worry about this, keep doing what you're doing!" You know, that thing.

The Work Never Stops Nov 06, 2023

One thing I wang onto my clients about is that the work does not stop and that I, nor anyone else, has THE solution for you. Each coach, healer, psychologist, trainer or whoever, has something to offer (hopefully of real value) and extend to you, to help you navigate life and see yourself, others and life in new ways. And this doesn't stop.
Instead of being all, "dammit, why do I still need help?", or, "what, I thought I dealt with this shit!", think of these people as adding to your Mary Poppins bag of tools to assist you with zooming out of your ego, to be aware of what's going on, to tap into yourself and access the answers from within.
Right now, I'm working with a Coach, a Kinesiologist, a Functional Neuro Kinesiologist and Chinese Medicine Doctor. All of these people are helping me with certain aspects of my life that are weighing me down and taking me away from my authentic essence. Each of them are offering me their gifts, I take what I need and add the learnings, lessons and tools to my Mary Poppins bag.
The work never stops. Nor should it.

Emptying Out To Fill With Purpose Oct 30, 2023

The moment I turned 38, a very heavy load I was carrying (without knowing just how heavy the load was) dropped. Not an ounce in me wanted to pick the load back up and convince myself that we "need this load to keep us safe, loved, protected, accepted!"
A very clear image of my 40-year-old-self has presented and hot-diggity-damn, she is next level She! No wonder my now self is dropping shit like it's hot, because where I'm walking, where I'm headed, there is not an inch of space for this heavy load carrying.
And so, I empty myself out to, in time, filler up buttercup with purpose. What a time! And so the work, the healing, the breathing, the burger with the lot, continues.

Kat & Steve - Relationships & Playfulness Oct 23, 2023

Steve and I talk about about something we all crave in our relationships whether we're aware of it or now - playfulness and fun. Life can get pretty hectic with responsibilities, work, parenting or whatever it may be, and it's easy to lose that spark. But here's the thing, playfulness is the key to keeping the connection alive.

In today's episode we share our own experiences and give you some real talk on how we keep the fun flowing in our relationship. Plus, we'll chat about the importance of embracing our own inner child and how important that relationship is in order to bring joy, laughter, and adventure into your love life.

Whether you're in a long-term relationship, just starting one, or even flying solo, this episode is for you. It's all about bringing more fun and playfulness into your love journey.

When You're Done With The Stories In Your Head Oct 16, 2023

Today's podcast episode hits close to home, my friends. I'm sharing something I think we've all grappled with at some point – those pesky stories in our heads that try to dictate how we interact with the world. You know, the narratives that creep in and tell us to keep people and our dreams at arm's length, all in the name of avoiding rejection. Well, I'm here to tell you that I'm absolutely fed up with these stories, and I'm ready to ditch them for good. It's about time we reclaim our power, drop the protective shields, and dive headfirst into the messiness of life. I'm excited to dig deep on this topic and explore how we can break free from these self-imposed limitations. Let's get real and raw, my friends, and let's do this together!

When You're Getting "The Call" Towards A Greater Purpose Oct 09, 2023

Nine years ago, my brother said to me to ask myself this question when I got a "the call", that internal nudge, regarding living into a greater purpose - "what problem are you solving in the world?"
Of course, I got all heady about it and tried to come up with what I thought I wanted to solve. Plus, imposter-syndrome kicked in right on cue saying things like, "um, who are you to think you can help the world solve a problem?"
To help myself answer this question, I asked, "what problem(s) have I solved within myself?" Aaah, now I could get somewhere. This helped me feel more confident as there were areas of my life that I had certainly worked on and through, where I was so called, 'on the other side', of the fence due to the time, energy and effort I put into that area to evolve.
By doing this, the gigantic weight of "what is my purpose" eased and I had a clue, a piece of the puzzle that showed what problem I just might end up solving.

The Most Overlooked Spiritual Practice Oct 02, 2023

Back in the day, all I did was THE practice that I thought would "make me more spiritual." I thought that by doing the 'thing' that it would mean I am more spiritual, when in fact, there is no such thing as being 'more spiritual'.
If I heard someone had been in Kathmandu meditating, I'd think, "well there more spiritual than me!" When I watched Eat Pray Love, I thought, "that's what I need to do to be more spiritual!" The shit I spun to myself I can laugh about now, but it really did send me into a tailspin and I was overlooking the single most important practice that reminded me that as I am, I already am Spirit.

Steve and I firmly believe that what contributes to our relationship being solid and built on deep trust, is that we are not dependent on one another. We have our own unique interests and aren't keen on dragging the other person along. I love going to dance classes, Steve loves riding his motorbike for example. We are two independent individuals who love being together, doing our thing together and also, doing what we love individually, apart.
I love watching the sun set and sitting there for a while longer. When I've asked Steve to come, he's usually fidgety and ready to leave as soon as the sun sets. I could (and have) judged him, make him 'wrong for me' because of it and try and make him be present to enjoy the moment more. Or, I could realise that this is my thing, go with my two doggies, sit there and enjoy it for myself.
He loves building giant size lego. He could ask me to sit there and join him or keep him company whilst he builds. Or, he could realise that lego is his thing and get lost in his world of building and enjoy it for himself. These are small examples, I know, but the niggles and the 'making the other' do something that is your own joy often starts small and grows.
We have our common loves like hiking, going on new adventures, seeing new parts of the world and dancing at parties or weddings. We treasure our joined loves and leave the rest to our own individual selves to enjoy.

I Needed A Break From Being "In Control" Sep 18, 2023

After five days at Gwinganna Retreat, I found my joyful, playful, light-hearted Kat again. Prior to going, I was in 'just get it done' mode, serious mode, no time for joy mode.
I have created an enriched life by choice that has space and time to 'do my life', yet I couldn't see it. My lens on life was task orientated, tick it off, next!
The last five days gave me space from control Kat and I could see more clearly why she was out and what I needed to give her to ease back into softness, ease and playfulness. My inner child doesn't cope well with change and her first thing to make change okay is to control the environment. I remembered that as adult Kat, it's my responsibility to nurture little Kat during those times, hold her close and let her know that I've got it, and her.
This is now my practice.

What It Really Means to "Enjoy The Journey" Sep 11, 2023

I was asked a question recently, and it was, "when you go for your goals, what do you hope to achieve?" Immediately I replied, "to actually the enjoy the journey along the way."
Yes, that sounds wanky and cliche, but it's true. I read the quotes and cognitively 'got' that it's about the journey and not only the destination, but when I put this into for real practice, a greater respect came about for the blood, sweat and tears (and lol's) that take place along the road to whatever is you're going for. That in the blood, the sweat, the tears, the lol's, the digging deep and widening of capacity, that is where the real juice is.
Today's episode shares about this. Hope you find it relatable.

Being "With" Reality Sep 04, 2023

I’m currently in the practice of bringing myself back to reality, as in, what’s happening right in front of me and around me. Not what I think is in front of me or what I think is happening around me, but what is right there.
This is to help me get out of the stories running through my head and the meanings I’m about to make reality mean, which has the potential to hate on my reality, when I may in fact not need to.
It's to help me manage my output, my energy and how I can either choose to infect the room with my mood, or, choose to contribute to the 'all-goodness' that is taking place in the room.

Kat & Steve - Relationships & Seven Game Changing Words Aug 28, 2023

It's been a big month for us. Our richness of time has shifted to strained time, due to high workload and changes in family dynamics. This has challenged our relationship as the space we previously had changed overnight and we've been adapting to our new reality as best we can.
The other day, Steve and I were running hot, and we were doing our best to not unleash our inner assholes and take our frustrations out on one another. One harsh word or tone of voice would have sent us over the edge - the tension was building up. When I was in the shower Steve said seven words that allowed for a shift to take place. He asked, "is there something we need to clear?"
Shit yeah there was, but uninterrupted time was capped. I sent him a message a while later, sharing, clearing, venting. Underneath all of that was that I missed him. So we took luscious time for ourselves and went for a hike, just us, reconnected, created a plan we both felt aligned to and sat amongst the rocks and trees. And so on we go with a new reality with strength, alignment and connected.

How Can You Rest If You Have Guilt About Resting? Aug 21, 2023

The other morning, I was eating my breakfast and watching Seinfeld. That's not my usual thing to do, but I was sick and wanted to sit snuggled up in my grey trackies, nom-nom-noming on my cereal with Bailey and Daisy sitting next to me. Ah, heaven.
Except the thoughts in my head weren't a fan of this. The doer in me, the achiever, the come on, get it done in me did a great job at attempting to make me feel like a lazy loser. Cool, thanks for interrupting my joyful moment!
Today's episode goes into the very funny but also mean-girl dialogue in my head, how I handled it and offers a few suggestions for you if you find it difficult to rest at times. Enjoy!

Trusting the Current 'Flow' Aug 14, 2023

It seems my body ain't done with taking it slow, but I tell you, my ego is DONE with it.
After a week of rest and honouring my body, I was like, "yes, let's do this world!" And then bam, I got my step-daughter's cold (thanks Ally-bum). All the shit I didn't do the week before I was eager to sink my teeth into, plus get back to Life Hub and lift them weights. But alas, my body said, 'rest human, rest some more.'
The current of flow that presented itself to me was slow, quiet, conserve energy kind of flow. The current of flow I wanted was let's go, let's lift, let's pick up the pace. In the past, I'd have pushed through and forced the flow I wanted. Now, I know better to respect what's needed.
Today's episode shares light on my new found perspective on 'going with the flow'.

Holding Yourself Tenderly Aug 07, 2023

It's been one week since the life awakening moment with the man on the beach. A week of managing my body and mind's response. I've been doing some reading about the normal and natural responses after delivering CPR and it's been a nice reminder that how I've been feeling is indeed, normal.
I've been doing nothing, so the doing can be done. Rest has been my best friend. Sleep has been my companion. Laying in the sun has been my healer. Talking to trusted friends and peers has been my warm blanket. Space, quiet and time has been my medicine.
To be able to honour the body by listening to it and tending to it, and not give power to the thoughts that say, "get up you lazy woman, get on with it, you're weak", has been the greatest gift of all. There is so much magic in the simplest remedies.

Kat & Steve - Relationships & Really Being There Jul 31, 2023

**This episode speaks of an incident that includes the medical intervention of CPR. Please be mindful when listening and check-in with yourself if you feel okay to listen / read on.
I've spoken many times about being a believer of the right time, right place, right person and having deep respect and trust for this way of life. Last week, all the right things led to being in the right place at the right time to help save a man's life.
After a poor sleep the night before, I cancelled the gym and chose to listen to my body and rest. Steve woke up and was about to take the dogs for a walk and I said, "give me 15 minutes of shut eye and I'll come!" When we walked out the door, Steve suggested to walk the canal due to being time poor and I said, "nah, let's do the beach, we'll make it home in time."
All those little happenings that we were open to allowed for us to be on the beach. As we walked back home, Steve noticed a man on the path, surrounded by incredible humans who were doing all they could to save his life. I ran over to see what was going on and as an ex nurse, could see quickly that this could go either way really quickly. I relieved the woman who was giving CPR, all of us saying to him, "come on mate, come on buddy, stay with us, stay with us." Then, he took a breath.
Since recording the episode, I have spoken to his wife on the phone, a moment I'll never forget. He is alive, well, walking and hopefully heading home soon. My respect and trust in listening to our inner voice that leads us to the right time, right place, right person has only deepened more. Still processing this one.
With regards to this episode and relationships, I couldn't thank Steve more if I tried for holding space for immediately after this experience and in the days following.

Trusting In The Work You’ve Done On Yourself Jul 24, 2023

There comes a time where the solo work we do to unravel, peel and strip back our lives, patterns and thinking comes to a natural end. A time where we are called to come out of our sacred cocoon and ‘play’ with life and others with our new found perspective and next layer of authentic self intact.
Your ego can resist this, pushing life and others away which stems from a lack of trust in who you are. It’ll sell you stories that you might “lose yourself again” and keep up an invisible wall, blocking out love, opportunities and the chance to test your new found self in the world.
After years of pleasing everyone but myself, I journeyed hard into coming back to myself. I too feared letting people in because, “what if I stop meditating? What if I stop working out? What if I lose connection to spirit?” This way of thinking kept me isolated way longer than necessary and it all came down to not trusting that I had myself.
This resistance is a normal response, one to acknowledge, sit with and respect. But also one to not let fool you into not believing that you can indeed have love with another AND honour yourself.

The Egos Lines of Defence Jul 17, 2023

I was speaking to a client the other day in a one-to-one session. She shared with me her writings from a meditation that had her access her heart and what she longs for. Immediately she said, "but who am I to have this? Who do I think I am?"
That's when I spoke to her about the egos lines of defence and it's multilayered approach in preventing you from receiving and experiencing what deeply matters. I asked her what her first line of defence was. She replied, "my ego cares what others think." I said, "let's say you broke through that limiting belief, what's the second line of defence waiting to block you?" She very quickly told me the stories and beliefs that came up immediately and we continued to do this until there were no further obvious lines of defence.
This is a great way to see the intricate ways your ego armours up and defends itself, the way things are and what it deems safe or unsafe. Listen to the full episode for further insights and how to get clear on your own lines of defence.

The Stories We Play Out In Our Head When Waiting For A Reply Jul 10, 2023

That space between sending a text or email and waiting for the response for something we deem, or is, important, whether it be a job application, making the first move on bumble or asking someone out on a date, can send us bat shit na-nas.
"OMG, they haven't written back, I shouldn't have sent it!"
The ego's response when we find ourselves waiting anxiously for a response can lead to us questioning ourselves, doubt our worth, and experience heightened insecurities during these moments (hello old wounds resurfacing).
Our human instinct is to seek resolution and regain a sense of comfort, or possibly control, when faced with uncertainty. We apply coping mechanisms to manage the discomfort, from refreshing our inbox obsessively, re-reading our text or email to dissect every word and its meaning, to crafting alternative scenarios in our minds.
Today's episode is a reminder that it is okay to wig out. Even if you'd done all the work in the world and wig out, it's okay. We want to do our best to slow this automated response down by asking ourselves some important questions.

Kat & Steve - Relationships & The Ongoing Work Jul 03, 2023

I held a pretty firm belief that once I found 'true love', it'd be smooth sailing and easy breezy. That when you meet, 'the one', you'll both just get each other and problems won't exist because you're 'so aligned'. What a reality check I was in for!
If anything, there was more work to put in as there were now two humans with their own ego's, views of the world, belief systems, values and all the rest coming together to cohabit, plus the added layer of children and step children.
Today's episode with Steve shares the realness of relationships and what's really involved when coming together AND staying together.

Kat & Steve - Relationships & Calling In Your Ideal Partner May 29, 2023

Before we met, we had a pretty gnarly list of who we wanted to attract into our lives. Both our lists were specific in what the person looked like, what they had, how old they'd be and more. What both our lists didn't have was the essence of the person we wanted to be with and what the energy of our relationship felt like.
Steve and I were friends and sought one another for dating advice. We couldn't even see that the person our hearts were seeking was right in front of us because we were list focused at that time.
In today's episode we share what was on our lists, who we attracted in as a result and the wound that kept creating those lists to keep our hearts safe. We also speak about how we both shifted from our heads and into our hearts, and how that led to us being together.

Beneath The CBF Vibes May 22, 2023

Prior to most work engagements, I have self talk that says, "I can't be bothered." It's a lazy, meh kinda energy I'm carrying around and I watch and observe it.
What I've realised and accepted over the last nine years of business is that no matter how on path I am or how epic an opportunity may be, there's a part of me (the ego) that resists the work. But why?
In today's episode I share what's beneath my CBF vibes prior to events, speaking engagements, coaching, recording podcasts, THE LOT! and how I manage it. There's an underlying narrative that is running, looking to convince me that this is not my path, "because if it was your path Kat, you'd be stoked all the time!"
Don't let it fool you out of doing what you love at the level of your heart.

Playing The Long Game May 15, 2023

When I started my business I wanted to succeed really quickly. This was driven by the fear of and looking like a failure. I wanted overnight wealth, overnight engaged community and overnight full books. I guess that's kinda normal to want these things but when I was informed by trusted people and professionals that ...

it'll take three years to build your brand and to build a solid, engaged community
it's not a business if it can't support your life; it's a hobby
it'll take ten years to be highly regarding in your field

... I wanted to give up. Ugh, who the hell wants to wait this long for this?
Recently, my online community grew from 32K to 529K in a matter of four months. I wasn't doing anything new and applied no new strategy. I'd been plugging away for nine years, sharing my message, tweaking it, doing the inner work and showing up a little more each time as my authentic nature.
Today's episode shares how grateful I am for past Kat who played the long game, delayed gratification, put her head down and bum up and stayed with what felt good, right and true. Because now, I am reaping the hard work she (past Kat) put in, even when she wondered if what she was doing was a waste of time.

Following Through On The One-Percenters May 08, 2023

I'm at that stage in my life where leaving the vacuum cleaner out after I make the house all shmick, isn't cutting it.
I'm at that stage in my life where folding the washing and leaving it downstairs, when it belong upstairs and I'm going upstairs but refuse to take it with me, isn't cutting it.
I'm at that stage in my life where leaving my clean underwear in the laundry, even though I need it every morning yet still don't bring it back into my bedroom, isn't cutting it.
People, the one-percenters are ready to be addressed and I'm kinda liking how I feel when I follow through. It's actually quite amazing! Today's episode will offer much laughter and relatability as I share the many one-percenters I am in the practice of following through on. Keen to hear how this lands for you.

Life Isn't Always "Good", And That's Okay May 01, 2023

I've been pulling out the phrase, "this too shall pass", more and more recently, but different reasons.
Typically I'd use this phrase when times are tough and less that ideal. Instead, I've been using this amidst an awesome moment that's full of connection, joy or celebration. And it's not because I'm being a Debbie Downer.
It's been a habit of mine to live for the epic-ness and feel bummed when life returns back to "normal". I noticed myself being annoyed at the mundane-ness after something amazing took place either personally or professionally and felt the need to balance this out. I could see myself judging life, people or situations, looking for why it or they were not as good as yesterday.
We often use the term, "this too shall pass", for tough times, but often when times are good, we cling onto the good feelings and feel underwhelmed when life returns to normal. I have been reminding myself that even the good times pass and it's to remind me that the beige-ness of life is okay.
I hope you enjoy today's share.

Kat & Steve - Relationships & Insecurity Apr 24, 2023

If you've had those pangs of jealousy in your relationship that results in you being controlling, withholding of your love and distrustful, please, listen to today's episode.
If you are in a relationship where your partner is insecure and acts out in controlling, withholding and distrustful ways, listen too.
If you are single and are thinking, "shit, I think this was me in my last relationship", listen.
Steve and I share two examples from our relationship where our security in self, the other and the relationship were challenged. We share how we handled those situations powerfully and with integrity, even though our ego's wanted to control the other in order to feel safe.
We believe this share is important as many relationships end prematurely when one (or both) people are insecure in themself, therefore acting out and punishing the other. We hope you find this episode helpful for you and your relationship.

In today's episode, I share that after 6 years of navigating the complexities of blended families, I feel I have found my place and grown to be truly grateful for my step-daughters. Through this experience, I have discovered new depths to my heart that I never knew existed until I met these two beautiful girls.
As I watch them shift from little girls to teenagers, I see them becoming their own humans in the world. I enjoy hanging out with them, chit-chatting and really feel that we can be ourselves with one another.
It's a tough road blended families and I'm sure glad I didn't give up or give into the stories in my head, because deep down in my heart, I've always known that they are my people.

Expect This When You Go After What You Desire Apr 10, 2023

As you embark on the journey of pursuing your dreams and desires, it's important to remember that it's completely normal to self sabotage and cock-block yourself. In fact, it's often in the pursuit of our goals that we are forced to confront our deepest wounds, limiting stories, and ego-driven beliefs. This can be uncomfortable and even painful at times, but it's an essential part of the process.
It's important to recognise that this is not a sign of failure, but rather an indication that you are growing and expanding beyond your current limitations. So, be kind and compassionate with yourself as you navigate old wounds and beliefs. Remember that you are not alone, and that this is a natural part of the journey towards fulfilling your next layer of potential.

Finally, I'm Allowing Myself To Experience Pleasure Apr 03, 2023

For the last three years of our relationship, I have been sexually inhibited and it's been an area of mine and Steve's relationship that has been strained. As I ventured in and sought professional guidance to help me, a new layer of healing and liberation unlocked. And with that, layers of pain released.
In past relations, I gave my body but not my heart. With Steve, I gave my heart and withheld my body. Why? To feel a sense of control and safety. But, it started to take a toll on us, so it was time to look deeper.
For the first time in 37 years, I feel sexually liberated, safe in my body AND with Steve, allowing myself to actually experience pleasure without the shame story shutting down my body. To finally be present in this area of my life without making it mean something is truly something I am celebrating.
Today's episode shares the lessons I've learned, the healing that's taken place and the journey over the past three months that has been hard, but worth it.
**Please note, today's episode makes mention of sexual abuse. If right now listening to this episode may be triggering, skip it or come back to it when the time feels right.

Kat & Steve - Relationships & Setting Agreed Intentions Mar 27, 2023

Steve and I made an agreement at the start of our relationship. An agreement that we both contributed to in order to help us stay connected and move out of shitty states when in disagreement.
We agreed that when one of us is acting up, talking with a sharp tone, being care-less with out words or cold shouldering, that the other would remind us of our true intentions and what mattered more than the need to be right or in control.
As time has gone on in our relationship it's helped us shift out of holding grudges and death staring the other far more rapidly, because we both know the true feeling and intention that we predominantly want to be in.
Today's episode shares a simple tool we used that has proved to serve us time and time again.

Life Is Not Just About The Before And Afters Mar 20, 2023

Sharing the mess of life can be challenging and vulnerable, especially when we tend to celebrate the "before and afters". It's also incredibly brave and empowering. Social media and other forms of communication often present an idealised version of life, showcasing only the highlights and filtering out the messiness and struggles that are an inevitable part of the human experience.

But when we have the courage to share the real and messy parts of our lives, we create space for authenticity, connection, and empathy. We show others that it's okay to struggle, to make mistakes, and to have imperfections. We give permission to others to be their authentic selves and to let go of the pressure to be perfect all the time.

Sharing our vulnerabilities can be scary, but it can also be transformative. When we open up and share our struggles, we allow others to offer support and love, and we often find that we're not alone in our experiences. We can create deep connections with others and build relationships based on authenticity and empathy.

So, while it can be challenging to share the mess of life, it's also incredibly brave and powerful. It's a way of showing up fully in the world and embracing all that life has to offer, both the highs and the lows.

Consider This On Your Personal Development Journey Mar 13, 2023

It's crucial to understand that personal growth and development is a continuous journey, and it's normal not to have all the answers and breakthroughs at once.
We need space to process, to reflect, to integrate. We need to be patient with ourselves and our progress. Remember, the journey towards personal development is a process that requires time and effort, and there are bound to be twists, turns and setbacks along the way. Rushing to find quick solutions or trying to have all the answers at once can lead to frustration and burnout.
Instead, focus on taking small, consistent steps towards where you want to go and trust that the breakthroughs will come in due time. In the end, the most important thing is to keep moving forward with patience, perseverance, and an open mind.

The True Meaning Behind Giving ZEROFKS Mar 06, 2023

In my world, giving ZEROFKS isn't about sticking the bird up to the world with fake, cocky confidence. To me, that is egoic protection and contributes to separation and carelessness between humans.
Giving ZEROFKS is about noticing and observing what thoughts, stories and beliefs are limiting you from expressing yourself, going after something you want or sharing with someone what's on your heart. What it's actually about is giving zero, or less, care, importance and airtime to what holds you back, so you can actually go after what matters. But first, you gotta look into the thought, belief and story, neutralise its power and then choose where you'd like to place your fks.
In today's episode I share why giving ZEROFKS in this way is vital to our mental well-being and how it keeps us accountable for how we're living our lives.

Kat & Steve - Relationships & Feeling Heard Feb 27, 2023

Ooh we had a doozy of a disagreement a few days ago. I wanted to have a moment of whinging and complaining about aspects of my business to Steve without any kind of solution or answer. Steve on the other hand, wanted to provide a solution and answer to help me overcome my pity party. Well, that went down like a sack of potatoes hard and fast!
In today's episode we go into why I cracked it, why Steve cracked it and what very simple tool we forgot to implement that led us to crack it at one another. We also go into how we moved out of this swiftly and powerful so we could refocus on loving one another and enjoying time together.
We hope you enjoy this episode.

Next Best Step (VS) Next Perfect Step Feb 20, 2023

There's a difference between the next best step and the next perfect step.
A next best step is something we take that is in alignment with our core values and truth in that particular moment or phase of our lives. For example, you may be overworked, undervalued and treated poorly at work. Your next best step may be to take a leave of absence for some time, regroup, find your core essence again and rebuild your inner resources. This next best step will serve its purpose for a period of time. When you are full again, a new next best step will be ready to be taken.
A next perfect step has a different energy about it. It's often created by the ego which will want to know if the next step is perfect, if it's right or wrong, good or bad and if it will lead to something worth taking the risk. This can leave us in indecision, doubt and heavy in the mind as the need to know that it's a good step is stronger than doing what is best for us in that moment.
Today's episode goes into this concept in more detail as I share with you where I'm at in relation to this very topic and how I'm navigating it. I hope you enjoy the episode and get some goodness from it.

What To Do When You Lose “It” Feb 13, 2023

What is "it"? "It" can be your sense of self, connection to the Universe or faith, belief in your dreams, depth in your relationship or self respect. "It" is something that deeply matters to you and for whatever reason, you've lost connection to it.
That loss of connection in some way, shape or form has and might still be, contributing to you feeling out of alignment, incongruent and out of touch with your inner being. It's okay, this happens, this is normal and sure, it's upsetting. But there is always a route back to reconnect to "it".

Why do we lose connection to what matters? Why would we forgo something that's important for something that isn't? How do we claim "it" back and how long will it take? All of this and more in today's episode.

When Your Values Challenge You Feb 06, 2023

Personal responsibility is one of my core values. It has been for some time and I'm pretty sure it will be for life. I think that because for the first two decades, this value was not my jam. I took little to no responsibility for life and played the victim card often.
I feel as though this value empowers and propels me to take action towards the things that matter to my heart which helps me feel aligned, authentic and congruent. Recently, personal responsibility was put to test when a company failed to recycle soft plastics. For the last 3.5 years my family have been diligent in putting soft plastics in the one of four bins we have, so when the company informed the public that they had not been recycling and now the plastics will go to landfill, my heart sank. Not to mention, I went into blame mode and, "ah, well there's nothing I can do, right?"
Turns out, there was something I could do. Listen to today's episode where I share how my core value was put to test and propelled me to be empowered and take action.

Kat & Steve - Relationships & Money Jan 30, 2023

At the end of each month, Steve and I are coming together on the podcast to share real, raw and relatable when it comes to our relationship. We sat down and agreed that we want to share with you how we powerfully manage difficult conversations and situations in our relationship, so we can be more in our hearts and focus on bigger matters (like loving one another).
In today's episode we speak about how we approached money in our relationship. Steve earns more money than me, I'm financially independent, we're in a blended family and have the girls here 50/50 - who pays what? What portion and percentage? Who pays for the girls groceries, clothes, etc?
There came a point where we needed to have some real chats to work out what was fair for both of us in this kind of situation.
Have a listen. We hope you enjoy it.

Feeling Safe In My Body Again Jan 23, 2023

**Please note, today's episode makes mention of sexual abuse.
The end to 2022 was a special one for me. An end that I wasn't expecting, didn't plan but one that I'm sure a wiser part in me knew I was ready to experience.
I share openly how much I experience anxiety, often saying to Steve (my partner) that in the last two years, this is the most anxiety I have experienced on a daily basis than I've ever recalled. It seemed odd to us both as I'm in a sweet place in myself and life.
Part of me thought, "well, anxiety is something I need to suck up and live with." But another part of me said, "there is something more to explore to ease the intensity." I listened to that part of me and the right people at the right time showed up, and boy was it a profound visceral experience that I'll never forget.
Listen in to the episode. I hope you enjoy it and take some gold nuggets away for yourself.

Less Push, More Trust Jan 16, 2023

My theme for this coming year (2023) is "Natures Way".
As time goes on, it becomes more and more clear to me that what I want gets considered, yet what I need gets delivered. So this years theme seems truly fitting, surrendering to natures way, natures force.
Nature has its own plan, its own patterns, its own connections. This teaches us to trust in a higher power, that there are connections forming which we might not see today, and that our place within the whole is becoming and will be revealed in time. Maybe not in my ego's time, but always, in time.
Today's episode shares more about this theme, how I came to it (or rather, how it came to me) and already what it's teaching me. I hope you enjoy.

Be Sure To Do This When Setting Intentions Dec 19, 2022

In the final episode for 2022 and as we head into that time where new intentions are set, please, listen to today's episode before you get busy setting new goals and intentions.
The more I do this work, the more it becomes obvious that a greater force, far greater than my little human ego self, is asking me to surrender more into the unknown and trust it. That in surrender, a certain space is created for deeper parts of us to speak to us, sharing with us matters that matter deeply.
I get it isn't easy to hand over your life to an invisible force, but as time as passed I can see that I previously I have tried to control too many outcomes, set goals from my ego and haven't left space for my heart to speak. As this has shifted, what I've needed, not wanted, has come to fruition.
I hope you enjoy the final episode for 2022. See you in your earballs again on January 16th.

2022 Reflections Dec 12, 2022

I set a theme at the beginning of each year and for 2022 it was, flourish.
In my little human mind I had it all mapped and planned out, thinking, "bam, I'm gonna flourish from the get go!"
Well, if you've listened to this episode at the beginning of the year, you'll know that I was quickly sat back down by the Universe and how quickly that plan went out the window.
This year I have flourished but in ways I originally didn't intend. Something deeper took over and I learned a heck of a lot. Today's episode are my reflections and learnings from the year, plus four questions to ask yourself to reflect on the year that's been. I hope you enjoy.

When You Act On Assumptions Dec 05, 2022

In October I wrote my journal, "stop holding them in a particular shape. Stop bracing yourself for how think they are going to be. Release them from the shape you're holding them in. Instead, meet them where they're at."
This was after I noticed that I was basing my behaviour on how I thought certain people in my life were going to behave. I was going into my, well they always act that way, so because they're like that, I'm going to be like this! It kept me in a low vibe dysfunctional pattern, assumption land and gave no space for anyone to be anything other than what I perceived them to be.

How Do You Resolve Inner Conflict? Nov 28, 2022

We all have choice to deal with inner conflict and pain in powerful ways; with integrity. It takes consciousness and presence which can be hard at times, but it is possible.What makes it difficult is the surge of emotions that stir throughout the body when someone or something touches a wound. When we don't know how to slow this process down, we resolve the pain and inner conflict in less than helpful ways.
Handling conflict with integrity means you choose not to respond from yourpain. This means we spray less of our own hurt onto others, the world or ourselves and take greater self responsibility.

Are the mountains, aka goals, you're climbing, yours? Or are they what you think you have to climb in order to feel more worthy, more enough, more important or more whatever?

Discomfort With True Space And Time Nov 14, 2022

Do you find yourself wanting more space and more time to breathe, to be, to ponder and do as you please? Do you also find that when you have that space and time to do as you please, there's a part of you that resists it, finds it uncomfortable wishes you'd never created space in the first place?
If so, then welcome to the, "I live with two opposing forces in me Club that seek different things!"

Such Is Life Nov 07, 2022

Well, one week has gone by and my beautiful Grandfather passed. The night before he left this world I got to sit with him, kiss his forehead and tell him, "I love you." A precious moment I'll forever cherish.
Amidst the McFlurry of emotions this past week, there have been some incredible experiences that have brought joy and juice to my heart. That really is life isn't it - one moment it can rip open your heart and the next it can fill it with love.
That's how the last 7-days have felt; the human experience in full flight! Such is life.

Rushing To “Feel Better” Oct 31, 2022

I'm watching my ego as it tries to "make things better" as I currently experience the emotion of sadness and feeling of anxiety. The sadness is linked to my Pop being palliative and the anxiety is linked to family tension and dynamics.
Both situations are linked to uncertainty. How long do we have Pop for? How long will the family dynamics be tense? To try and ease the discomfort in not knowing, my ego is looking to feel better, faster. This means skipping over how I currently feel which will eventually lead to being overcome with feelings it's trying to run away from and appease.
Today's podcast shares how I am being WITH sadness and anxiety, rather than rushing to feel better or being swamped by the feelings. A fine dance, that's for sure.

When Enough Is Actually Enough Oct 24, 2022

I had a great realisation about a week ago when I saw my Kinesiologist, Elena Pilch. The way I have chosen to live my life, the space, the time, the choice of how I work, who I work with, etc is enough. The way I used to work was more hectic, leading to burnout, and my ego believed that when we hit burnout, THEN we've done enough!
So the past pattern was, "work until you're flatlined, because ONLY when you're on your knees with zero juice and life-force can you say you've worked your ass off and proved your worth!" Hands up how many of you do that?
Today's podcast shares more on this. Enjoy.

When The Worst Thing Turned Into The Best Thing Oct 17, 2022

Before every ZEROFKS dance party, the dream I have the night before is that the sound system fails. Each event it’s never bombed out, but at the last event, it did.
Mid dancing our assess off, the power went out — no lights, no music, 250 sweaty legends in a room. Ahhh, the dream (nightmare) came true.
Within a matter of a minute Nicole — @theartisanssolutions was up on stage. A woman I’d never met until last night, standing in front of everyone creating a magical moment where the whole room started singing acapella to whatever song she started singing. Her dear friend @jessicaroberts_official nudged her to get up and buy us time until we got the system working again. What a friend!
The deep fear I had turned into one of the best ZEROFKS memories where the definition of community came to life! Still blown away from this moment. Nicole and Jess, you’re my hero’s. Check it out here.

A recent realisation has come about after having new photos taken a few weeks ago. I felt it was time to re-shoot photos that capture not only the happy, smiley and "out there" side of me, but also my feminine, softer side.
When I saw some of the images on the day, my initial response was, "I won't be putting those up!" Of course I'm curious as to why that's my first response, and it came down to shaming and inhibiting my beauty. That I'm not allowed to see myself that way or accept my own beauty because it's wrong and stuck-up.
It's been a cool realisation and one that I can now be in the practice of accepting more and more as I allow my feminine side to further emerge.
More on this in today's episode.

Life In The Slow(er) Lane Oct 03, 2022

After almost two years of slowing down the pace of my life and rearranging the way I 'do' so that I'm not always 'doing' for the sake of doing, I had a really lovely moment.
It was a simple moment of putting away a placemat. It was the way I put it away that made me go, "ahhh, this moment right here is the culmination of the last two years." The ease and slowness of picking up the placemat and putting it away without grabbing it in a huff or hurry, and shoving it in the cupboard so I could 'do' the next thing, made me realise how nice it is to have created a slower paced life.
More on this in today's episode.

What's The Story? Sep 26, 2022

We all hold ourselves back from following our Truth due to a myriad of stories we tell ourselves. These stories are powerful, potent and are loaded with evidence as to why you can't speak your truth, or express yourself more freely, or say "I love you", to your partner, or leave a toxic environment.
This is normal, we all do it, but you don't want to let the stories become your truth. Today's episode has you has the question, "what's the story I'm telling myself?", and invites you to become curious why the story is there. Then there's a follow up question to ask, which you'll find in the episode. Enjoy!

Hitting Rock Bottom Sep 19, 2022

I believed that hitting rock bottom was the only way to change, or at least to enforce myself to change. That feeling so low, or burnt out, or afraid of my thoughts would catapult me into action. Often, it did, hence thinking that rock bottom was how I could grow.
This past week I spoke to year 10 students from St Michael's Grammar School. We spoke about the dark voices in our head that lead to self destructive behaviours towards ourselves, our family and friends, and to hitting rock bottom. We also spoke about the light voice, the quieter voice that nudges us to reach out for help, or to do "X" before hitting the lowest of lows. It was a great chat.
The question I left them with was this. If you listened to your light voice a little more, "what would it say to you to help you not hit rock bottom over, and over again?" Some took the question away to ponder. Others shared immediately. But there was a strong sense that they knew what they needed to do and that it's about listening to that a little more.

The Ongoing Ego Battle Sep 12, 2022

Not a day goes by where the ego won’t attempt to steal your focus and plant it on petty shit.
It’ll rant and rave about how you’re not ready, worthy, enough or perfect and make you do shit to be all those things before you can focus on what you truly want.
But denying that the ego exists, desperately trying to make it go away so that you'll live happily ever after without it is a quest that'll disappoint you until the end of your days. Toxic positivity, spiritual bypassing or shoving your ego into a box hoping it'll never return isn't going to bring you inner peace.
No one is exempt from the ego, no matter how much work we do on ourselves. The work needs to become about the sheer desire to grow and develop, rather than to eradicate a part of ourselves.

Self Punishment Cycle Sep 05, 2022

Clinging onto negative thoughts as if they are the whole truth and nothing but the truth so help you baby Jesus, will have you act out patterns that have no intention of serving your deepest good.
If you’ve been following along you’ll know that my thoughts have tried to eat me alive so that I don’t eat! Those thoughts tried to direct me toward a stubborn pattern of self punishment and restricting food like the old days. But instead of giving into them, I let them be there, watched them, observed the feelings that arose in my bod and chose to focus on being as kind as possible.
Two opposing forces all at once. One say RESTRICT and the other saying KINDNESS. I mean, talk about being pulled in different directions. But when you follow the one that you know will deep down serve you and not give into the old pattern, that’s big win.

Losing Focus From The Original Intention Aug 29, 2022

I just played myself today. Well, my ego did.
For months I have truly enjoyed buying my stepdaughters flowers and putting them by their bedside. On the weeks when the girls are with us and I go to the local store and see the flowers, I can't help but think, "hmm, which ones would they love?" They have never asked for the flowers, it's simply a gesture from my heart to theirs.
Today my ego stepped in and hijacked my heart's intention, disguising itself as being of service to the girls. I didn't buy them flowers to see if they'd notice. If they did notice and said, "hey Kitty, where are our flowers?", my response would have been, "well, wouldn't it be nice to appreciate the flowers when they're there rather than when they're not?"
Yep, I made this all up in my head and had their response and my response ready to go. After getting home I realised, this was a bullshit trap that took me away from my original intention and focusing on a petty lesson they didn't even ask for.
I hope you enjoy! x

Energy Leaking Or Energy Hoarding? Aug 22, 2022

Today's episode is an invitation to look at how you spend your energy. Do you spend it hard and fast? Do you spend more than you have? Do you keep it all to yourself for fear you'll burn yourself out again?
I was this close to spending my new and refreshed energy, fast! After returning from Hawaii, swimming in crystal clear oceans, being sun-kissed, no-where to be and not a lot to do, I had recharged myself to maximum capacity. And I felt freakin' great.
When I returned home, I felt an old pattern return. The one that spends my energy faster than it took to regain in. This too was a pattern with me and money back in the day. Just when I was about to overstep my own boundary and give another part of me away, I stopped, observed what I was doing and why, and remained in curious observation for some time. As a result, I've maintained the energy the energy I restored whilst away and intend to keep it that way.
I hope you enjoy treasures.

A Great Book To Support Simple Living Aug 15, 2022

I took a book away with me on our recent family holiday. It had been sitting on my, "pile to read", shelf for a good few years, and it didn't disappoint.
If you, like me, have been summoned by The Greater part in you to lead and live a more simplified life that truly matters at your core, then you'll get a lot out of this book (if you haven't read it already).
It's a great companion as you go on your quest to peel back what is no longer for you. Amen to you for being brave and courageous to listen to your heart; a true legend you are.

Sacred Sundays Aug 08, 2022

I’ve been less inclined to be on social media recently. To me, it’s bombarded with ads, peeps I don’t know, feels “noisy”, algorithm-ised to the max and the feed just doesn’t end!
I actually don’t scroll on here or get sucked into a vortex and end up a zombie. I do look at reels for inspo, check DMs as peeps reach out to do business, potential clients want to work with me and then I tap out.
But something in me just doesn’t feel the same desire I once had to always be on here. Something in me is saying, “live and drink in the life that is around you.” And I’m listening.
Maybe I’ll tap out for a few months. For now, I’m just off it more and will commit to Sacred Sundays of no socials. That feels like a nice place to begin.
I’ve definitely noticed already how much more time I have, space to tap into myself and my life, and am very much enjoying the additional peace in my mind.

Slower Paced Living & Why It Matters Aug 01, 2022

Coming back to your natural rhythm is one heck of a journey, especially when you've ventured very (very) far away from it.
When you land back there, it's easier to hear what you want, what you don't want, what you need and no longer need. You can hear Your Self again, rather than the noisy chatter of doubt rattling around in your head.
In today's episode I share about what slower paced living allows us to experience again and how it's the basis for us being connected to our true Self. I hope you enjoy.

Are You Doing Life Your Way? Jul 25, 2022

The song, "My Way", has been one of those songs that speaks to something real deep inside of me. My eyes tear up, I think of my late Nana who used to sing it and I'm immediately reminded to live my life, my way.
It beckons me to look inside, ask myself, if I lived my life my way, what would that look like? How would it be different to now? Or am I on track and can stop looking for something grander?
Today's episode is about living life in alignment to the way we deep down know is best for us, and tapping back into that internal wisdom. I hope you enjoy it.

When Clarity Starts To Land Jul 18, 2022

After four weeks of being away on our family holiday, some light has found its way back to my soul and clarity is beginning to land.
Prior to being away I was wound-up, unwell and deep in a transformation period (I willingly asked for, ughhhh). At times I wondered if I'd ever feel clear in my mind again, be happy or sure about my path. But like many times where I have felt this way, clarity has always come, and it has once more.
In today's episode I'm sharing about the clarity that's landing and small steps to honour what feels good and true for my life. I hope you enjoy.

What Are You Missing Out On? Jun 16, 2022

There'll be times when the stories in your head create conditions on why you can or can't do something. Maybe you really want to book in a fitness class, and you do. When the day comes to attend the class, your ego starts rattling off, "oh, it's too cold! I have too much to do at home. I need to get fitter before I go. I'm not in the mood!"
These stories place conditions on how you, or something (weather, weight, work) has to be before you can go and do that small little something you'd love to do.
Today's episode gets real about the stories in your head that are currently cock-blocking you from following through on something that you know will deeply serve you and your life.

Dare To Ask The Hard Questions Jun 13, 2022

If you dare to ask the hard questions, are brave to hear the answers and courageous enough to act upon them, you are well on your way to being an aligned, authentic legend.
The reason you don't ask the hard questions is because your ego fears that the life, relationships and person that you've built will collapse, so it keeps you busy and distracted with "life".
If there is a part in you that is ready to ask, be brave and courageous, please, honour that. To do what deeply serves you and your life is a precious gift to give yourself, and this is one sure way to begin doing what is in your best interest.

Taking Time To Heal Jun 06, 2022

After asking myself the question, "what can I do that would be deeply beneficial to me?", I received the answer, "take a step back where you can." Straight away I began to notice where I could pull back and one of those places was to take a break from podcasting this week.
Of course, my thoughts are flying around saying how I can't do that. But, I can. I'm buying back some of my time to heal and process current upgrades.

What's Your Relationship With Control? Jun 02, 2022

As children, we create a control dynamic in order to deal with life's happenings.
For example, maybe you were the eldest child and had all the love and attention from your caregivers. Then, your sibling is born and that love and attention is shared. Unconsciously you make a decision about what that means and how to behave in order to gain control back. Maybe it's by being overpowering to your younger sibling or becoming reckless to take the attention back. This is control dynamics at play and we all do it to feel safe.
I've recently uncovered one for myself which I share about in today's episode.

When You’re Filled With Anxiety May 30, 2022

What do you do when you're filled with anxiety? Do you find it too uncomfortable to feel? Do you look for ways to distract yourself, will-fully tell it to, "fk off", or do you become it and let is take you over?
I used to get angry when anxiety would show its face. I made it mean that something was wrong with me and that I wasn't mentally resilient. Now, I'm still not a fan but I have better ways of managing it.
In today's episode I share about being in the hight of anxiety and how I'm currently managing it.

When they come in, do you grab onto each thought and hold it to be the whole truth?

Not Just A Highlight Reel May 23, 2022

Last week the full moon hit me hard! I woke up and felt like I'd been whacked across my head and was in a state of, "ughhhhh!"
I shared about this on insta and plenty of people were in a similar boat. Most were like, "OMG, me too, thank God I'm not alone", whilst others offered advice to help shift the state I was experiencing. If you've watched Brene Brown's Atlas of The Heart on Binge, then you'll recall her talking about how control is the near enemy to compassion. That when you open up to someone and they feel uncomfortable, instead of sitting with you, they feel the need to fix or offer a solution.
To me, it's important to share the whole journey of mental health and not just a highlight reel. It helps people feel heard, seen and less alone. In today's episode I share more about this and how our need to fix locks out compassion and as a result, connection.

One Very Powerful Way To End Indecision May 19, 2022

This is a tool I have used for years when I am unsure about what decision to make or when I'm wondering if I've made the 'right' one.
To be real, there's no right or wrong decision, as both lead to experiences, however this practice really helps provide certainty and a feeling of support from the invisible forces that you're on the right path. Enjoy.

Stop “Fixing” Yourself May 16, 2022

To all my fellow, “I need to fix myself in order to be loved, accepted, chosen, taken seriously”,
or whatever wonderful limiting belief you’ve made up, this one’s for you.
My ex full time job was to fix me to perfection and it drove me to feeling so low about myself. I didn’t want one shard of broken piece left in me, and I made it my business to clean it all up.
Turns out, the real work was in accepting the bottomless pit of brokenness and darkness, acknowledging it, listening to it, understanding why it’s there and learning to coexist with it.
If this is you right now, please, reach out. I am here to show you another way that will bring greater peace, empowerment and freedom than trying to get rid of it can.

5 Signs You're C@$k-Blocking Your Authentic Self May 12, 2022

The first step to allowing your authentic self to come out into the world and be part of your life again is to acknowledge when you’re not letting it out, and then ask yourself …
• Why was it difficult for me just now?
• What story was playing in my head that stopped me from being me?
• What do you I fear most, even though it’s irrational?
• How did I feel in my body after hiding my authentic expression?
• What will help me next time to be more me? What is my next best step?
Have a listen to today's episode to get in on some juicy points and questions to ask yourself.

Are You Investing In Yourself? May 09, 2022

I wondered why I've been feeling so bloody good lately. It got me thinking and I asked myself, "what's changed?" It became clear that I've been investing in myself and am in 'learning mode'.
At present, I have a coach who I reached out to, to help me expand. Recently, I went on the Her Trails Hiking Retreat in the Northern Territory and I signed up to Tory Archbold's business attraction program.
It makes sense, I'm filling myself up with the goods and have tapped into people I respect and who I believe can help me. My usual ways of thinking, doing and being are being challenged, questioned and reset which I am loving!
Are you investing in yourself? If not, why? If yes, how's it going for you? If you haven't for a while, do you feel called to? Today's episode is here as a reminder to check in with yourself.

Do You Ignore Your Truth? May 05, 2022

Do you listen to the needs of your body? Do you listen if your body needs rest? Do you listen to the answers inside of you, or give your power away to others and only listen to them?
After an amazing client session recently, it came about for her to listen to herself, and to make space for that to happen. The simplicity of this message had a profound effect on her, because for so long the opinions of others mattered more than her own. For her, that ends now.
Today's episode is a great opportunity to check in with yourself and ask if you listen to yourself, or not. If you don't, why? What are the stories you tell yourself? What would be different if you did start listening?

Fuelling My Wild Heart May 02, 2022

I've recently returned from Alice Springs after hiking the Larapinta Trail. It's safe to say that this time away cracked me open and fuelled my wild heart.
The transition from civilised living to camping in swags under billions of stars, in the middle of nowhere and on the red dirt, was far easier than I thought. In fact, I loved it! Eating around the campfire, sharing stories with the women and living basic, revealed to me how beautiful life is and the magic that is right "there" when distractions no longer distract.
In today's episode I share with you the change I feel making its way into my bones, the blessings I've taken away so far and that I loved being outside of my comfort zone.

What Is The Fight REALLY About? Apr 28, 2022

Steve and I were driving to my friends wedding and we had the dumbest disagreement. Our defences were at play and we were going nowhere, fast!
Beneath the bullshit, the disagreement was really about Steve feeling unsupported by me, and I felt I was being controlled by him. On the surface we had our swords, shields and armoured suits on, both spitting fire and thinking we're both right.
But underneath the stupidity of our disagreement, our old wounds were fuelling the sword fight. Once we acknowledged what it was really about, we could stop with the tit for tat, get to the bottom of it and move on.

Freeing Your Next Layer Of Authentic Expression Apr 25, 2022

We all do a pretty good job of hiding some amazing parts of ourselves. We can hide our self expression for fear of looking foolish. We can hide our values and what we stand for, for fear of being rejected. We can hide our dreams for fear they'll never come true.
Whatever we hide has a story behind it. A story that has power over the next layer of authentic expression finding its way out of you and into the world, unless you choose to call BS on the story.

Three Powerful Questions To Ask Yourself Apr 21, 2022

I'm a big fan of asking the deep self enquiry questions that open us up to receiving the answers we need to hear. Yes, those answers can be uncomfortable as they have the potential to rearrange our lives, but they often bring us closer to living a life that feels true and aligned.
These three simple yet powerful questions are ones to use in all areas of your life. They'll help you maintain an ace life if all is well, and redirect back to your truth when you've veered off path.

Reassessing Life And Letting Go, With My Love, Steve Apr 18, 2022

I've been watching Steve make a shift since February this year. As he's shifting, I've noticed he's more soft, present, patient and quiet. He has more time for his daughters, enjoys spending time with them. He's journalling, making more space in his life for those who matter, and less time for those who bring drama.
As I watch him shift, I am falling more deeply in love with him. The fact that he chooses to grow, evolve and look inward is something I found incredibly sexy and inspiring about him.
In today's episode I ask Steve to share with us what brought him to this shift, how he's going through it and what lessons he's been collecting along the way.

The Road Back To Self, With Tory Archbold Apr 14, 2022

Always one to trust her intuition, after 20 years Tory Archbold knew that it was time to start a new chapter. Her ah-ha moment came after she launched 3 of America’s most powerful brands into Australia. At a sold-out launch event for Drew Barrymore’s brand Flower Beauty organised by Tory, Drew shared with the crowd about how she survived tough times.
Watching, Tory thought, ‘lady, I see you and raise you five. You know what, I’m done.’
Shutting the doors to her agency in 2019, Tory launched Powerful Steps, an online community and platform for women making global impact.
Amongst her career change, Tory was also undergoing her own inner transformation; to show up on the outside as she was on the inside. Authentic living was calling her to show more of herself, and in today's episode we go into those juicy nooks to hear her gold.

I Don't Sweep The Floors Four Times A Day Anymore! Apr 11, 2022

For many years I have used cleaning and having a clean (well, perfect looking) space as a way to feel in control, safe and that everything was okay (for a brief moment).
Obsessive compulsive tendencies have been running through my veins since a teen, not knowing what the heck to do with large emotions and the impending feeling of needing to make sure that I was constantly in control and okay.
I started asking myself, "what else could or would I be doing if I wasn't sweeping the floor? What happened right before I decided to walk into the laundry, get the sweeper and start sweeping? What was I thinking about? Where was I feeling out of control or unsafe that has led me to sweep to feel fleetingly in control?"
These questions led to greater awareness of what was going on beneath the surface and gave me clues to piece together. They also led to answers to begin making changes that served me and my life, and not a clean floor.
Now, I sweep once a week, maybe twice and I have less charge and angst if a crumb is on the floor (winning). May sound strange, but this easing off has meant my fks can go towards far more fulfilling things.

What Is Your Ego Preventing You From Experiencing? Apr 07, 2022

What is your ego preventing you from experiencing, expressing, sharing, doing or being? This is the question I posed at my recent Sunday Meds In Real Life event.
Is it preventing you from speaking your truth for fear you won't be taken seriously?
Is it preventing you from experiencing real and deep love for fear you'll get hurt?
Is it preventing you from standing up for what you believe in for fear you'll lose people in your life?
These are the deep questions to ask yourself ...

Letting Kids Be Kids Apr 04, 2022

My step daughter asked her PE teacher if she'd consider me coming in to run a dance and meditation class, to which she said yes!
So last week I ran two classes and watched these girls freely express themselves, dance, sing, jump around, do the worm, do flips and cartwheels, chase each other around and laugh and be silly. Even the PE teacher got on board!
My message to the girls was this. There are plenty of things in life we care about that matter, and that don't, and this can steal a lot of our attention. And, as we get older, more responsibilities are expected of us which can feel like there's a lot of pressure being human. Never forget to come back to these practices of having fun, freely expressing yourself and being in touch with you inner kid, because that's what helps us through what can be a boring and rigid life.
Do you let yourself freely express yourself?
Are you stuck in a rigid routine?
Have you lost your spark?

Cracked Wide Open Mar 31, 2022

Something magical happened after Monday's episode. My step daughters wrote me a note saying that they want to officially adopt me as their step mum (insert tears).
I came home Wednesday night and Steve and the girls were in a funny mood. Little did I know that the three of them had chatted over dinner about me. Steve said, "Kat is choosing not to have children of her own. She's also choosing to take care of you two and guide you for the rest of hers and your life!" As a result of this conversation, the girls said, "let's let her know that we choose to take care of her for the rest of her life and adopt her".
I go more into this in the episode. But can I tell you how much my ego's stories are being busted left, right and centre. I have all this love around me that I've been protecting myself from. Not anymore, I'm cracked wide open.

Tired Of Closing My Heart Mar 28, 2022

Triggers can be so automatic that when you realise you're triggered, you're already neck deep in your shit. That was me a week ago.
Control is something my ego loves to have. It's how I feel safe and sure about my environment. So when something changes that I wasn't ready for, I feel like my space is being invaded, that something bad is going to happen to me and as a result, I close up my heart and energy and head into the brace position.
I'm so aware of this, however at times, the trigger is so strong and I end up sitting inside a closed heart which I'm so done with. In today's episode I share about my most recent example of this, how I reopened my heart and started call major BS on my ego's same old story.

Why I’ve NOT Seen Myself As Sexy Mar 24, 2022

This is a recent breakthrough that I have uncovered and am seeing in all its light.
I've been working with my coach and brought this to her after noticing how I dull myself down when it comes to feminine and pretty clothing, telling myself and others, "oh I'm just not a dress person". I did this also until recently when I told myself, "I'm not a shorts person", and would wear tights and pants throughout summer!
After guest speaking at an IWD event, I admired the woman who dressed sexy and boldly and wondered why I felt so uncomfortable expressing this part of me. With some solid self enquiry it became clear that I have used clothes as my boundary to communicate, "I'm not a sexy or sexual person, so stay away thanks!" During my late teens and early twenties I allowed people to treat my body however they wanted and gave it up freely. In my later twenties and early thirties I swung the opposite way, became closed and dressed to say, "not interested!"
In today's episode I share where this stems from, why I've made these decisions to date and how I'm allowing myself to express this suppressed part of me in a way that feels good for me.
**Please note that in today's episode there is mention of sexual abuse. Please be mindful of this prior to pressing play, treasure.

My 2014 Diary Entry Mar 21, 2022

I found my diary recently and read through some of the entries. Wow-wah-wee!
The limiting thoughts I had back then are still the same limiting thoughts I have now, only in 2014 they were fully charged and triggered me to go down into a black hole of despair. Now, the thoughts are there, however due to ego work and knowing it more intimately, I no longer become the thoughts.
This is a great episode to share with you why knowing your ego is so important, and to befriend it rather than pretend it doesn't exist, or spend the rest of your years trying to fight and get rid of it.

If I Get Better, Will People Still Care About Me? Mar 17, 2022

Back in the days of chronic pain and taking pain medication on the daily after brain surgery, I got a lot of sympathy from people. My family and friends would often ask me how I'm doing, what can they do for me, and if I was okay. The frustrating part was that they couldn't do much, but it was nice to know they cared.
After hitting rockbottom and wanting out, I met my Professor of Neurology who gave me an alternative approach (listen here to the podcast I did with him) which eventually led to being pain free, happy and reclaiming myself.
But during that process from pain to freedom, there was a deep fear of getting better, followed by thoughts like, "no one will care about you, no one will ask you how are you, no one will offer their time". I began to notice a pattern across my life, that part of me was conditioned to get love from being unwell or something being wrong.
In today's episode I share how I let go of the belief that held me in the identity of a suffering victim and what was waiting for me as a result.

When Guilt Leads To Over Giving Mar 14, 2022

I've learned this lesson the hard way many times. Over the past two weeks with the intensity of the world, I could feel the guilt of getting on with my life, business and responsibilities kicking in. All I wanted to do was more and more for the NSW/QLD floods, and my batteries were running low.
After a huge few days of helping organising Melbourne's mass donation drop for the floods, I looked at my week and it was full! My step daughters were coming back, coaching clients and guest speaking gigs for International Women's Day were ahead of me, and I thought, "if I don't pull back on the need to give out of guilt, I'll fry myself".
Today's episode goes into how the guilt of being safe in a world where others are suffering can cause over giving for fear of being selfish or insensitive. There's a balance between giving and ensuring that you're filling yourself up.
Have a listen to today's episode and lemme know your insights.

How To Discern Between A F!k YES And A F!k NO Mar 10, 2022

I was a YES gal! My immediate response was, "yeah sure, no worries", or, "yes of course, I'd be happy to", when in actual truth, I was not happy to.
The immediate yes came from a people pleasing, validation seeking and "please see me as an awesome human" place that led me to go against my deep down values. This further led to burnout due to giving out my energy without replenishing it.
Over the years I have learned to say no, which really messes with the people pleasing part of me. In today's episode I share with you one powerful and simple way that with practice, allows you to know if you truly want to say yes, or deeply want to say no.

Be Proud Of How Far You’ve Come Mar 07, 2022

Sometimes it's easy to forget how far you've come and be constantly looking forward to be your best self! I do that too as I use it as a way to step into who I choose to be, but there's a time and place to remember where you are now and where you have been in relation to that.
Recently, I was doing a meditation when I was feeling doubtful about trusting the future I was moving towards. I imagined my future self came and took a seat next to me and gave me tender loving care, and a, "shhh, it's okay girl, everything is a-okay".
It was mega comforting, and then something very special took place. All my previous selves appeared in my imagination and took a seat next to me too, reminding me that where I am NOW is where my previous selves have wanted to be. It was a humbling moment that took me out of stressing about the future, and being totally proud of where I'm at now.
Listen to today's episode for juicy deets and golden nuggets.

What To Do When The World Seems F!d Mar 03, 2022

My youngest step daughter said to me, "Kitty, when will the world get a break?" My heart, oh my heart. She's at that age now where she's aware and also bombarded with information about the world and can't un-see or un-hear what she's taken in.
I get that there's always things going on in the world that are less than ideal, even cruel. It pains me to see people treating one another poorly, animals being seen as waste products or food, and the planet being stripped of its natural beauty.
When I get like this, I know I need to shift my head, because I'm heading into dooms day mentality. I do truly believe to my core that if we humans took greater responsibility of ourselves, knew ego from Truth, head from heart and acted in alignment with our values, the shit that we do to each other, sentient beings and our home would would reduce.
Today's episode is a raw one from my heart.

Top Shelf Self Care Feb 28, 2022

I had one of those epic mornings recently, where I got to do all the things I love without time pressure and I friggen loved it! I call these kinds of mornings my "top shelf" self care moments.
I have three levels of self care - top shelf level, first shelf level and bench top level.
Bench top level self care is where I do the non negotiables, no matter how full my schedule is. This includes moving my body, journalling or meditation.
First shelf level is where I take a little more time with the non negotiables. I'm not as rushed and I might take my meditation and journalling into nature with my decaf soy latte. I walk a little longer or hang back after boxing to chat with my coach. I'll add in a coffee catch up during the week.
Top shelf level self care is where time is not a thing and I milk the shit outta what I'm doing, who I'm with and fall into the things that bring me joy.
Have a listen and I'd love to hear what your top shelf level of self care is. Please also reach out if you struggle to put into place bench top level self care.

Challenging My Belief That Being Feminine is Weak Feb 23, 2022

I've judged the feminine hard. For a long time I've viewed being "feminine" as being weak and offering no value to the world. This judgement stemmed from how I viewed my mum.
She stopped nursing when my brother and I were born, to be there for us whilst my Dad worked. In my little head, I made up the belief that women have nothing much to give, whilst men go out there and get shit done.
As a result, I hyper-idealised the masculine, putting all my eggs in doing, pushing, proving and working hard. Giving myself a break, time, the luxury of space to be, wander, feel and do as I please has been hard for me. My egoic beliefs flare up when I want to rest and my thoughts hammer me, saying. "you're lazy, you're a loser, you're a nobody".
Over the last two years a new way forward has been calling me, and I've been listening. The resistance to balancing out the masculine and feminine in me has been real, but, worth it. Have a listen to today's episode and lemme know your insights and takeaways.

Give ZEROF!S To The Limiting Stories In Your Head Feb 21, 2022

My boxing coach, Roger and Tania from Fit2Box, threw me into the ring and my ego shat itself.
I've been happy training on the pads, on the bags and in the ring with them doing drills. So when they said, "hey, jump in the ring with Mikayla" (who by the way is a boxing beast and has been training for one year), all my shit came up!
"No I'm not ready! I'll look like a dick in front of her and them. I'm amateur and will make a fool of myself", plus SO MUCH MORE. These barrage of thoughts came in hot and strong within seconds and I was thinking how the fuck to get out of it. Instead, I chose to focus on learning and growing from this and steer my fks away from the thoughts in my head.
Today's episode is a goodie if your head and limiting stories are currently messing with you, and stopping you from trying something new.

Why It's Hard To "Be Yourself" Feb 17, 2022

When people say, "just be yourself", that can be uber confusing to decide which "self" to be.
There's a self in all of us that has an agenda and guideline for how you HAVE to be in order to be loved, accepted, valued or the most powerful. This is the self that you'll put forward on dates, job interviews, around friends or new people without even thinking. It's an automatic patterned response directed from your ego to act and behave in a certain way to get an unmet need validated.
Then there is another Self. This part of you has no agenda - it only wants what's best for your deepest and highest good. This Self watches, observes and notices how you think, act and behave and asks, "does this feel true to you?" It's the Self that is here to help you be You without the need to impress, adapt yourself, be a chameleon, be the class clown, be the most powerful. It has no agenda.
Today's episode is a goodie to buckle up and listen in. Lemme know your takeaways.

Respecting The Phases of Being Woman Feb 14, 2022

In the last two years I have leaned in on knowing how I act, behave, think and feel pre period, during period and post period. Prior to that, I just thought I was nuts and coo-coo and tried to push through however I was feeling. These days, my body ain't having it.
I've learned about the four phases of menstruation - summer, autumn, winter and spring. I've listened more to what my body needs and what's going on, noticing when I have more energy, creative juices, low vibes and nothing to give. It's been really cool to honour this layer of being a woman.
In today's episode I share what I'm like during the different phases and let you in on the weird and wonderful behaviours I get up to. It feels nice not to suppress how I am for how I think I have to be.

Trust The Timing of Your Own Life Feb 10, 2022

These seven words keep me very grounded.
Whenever I feel the need to live up to societal timelines of getting married, having a baby or getting my eggs frozen because I'm now considered geriatric in the fertility world, I remind myself of these seven words.
Whenever I am looking left and right at what others are doing in my industry and I start telling myself stories that I'm a loser, that I need to hustle more and that I'm going to lose it all if I don't hurry up, I remind myself of these seven words.
Today's episode encourages you to take a look at where you are hurrying up your life based on external expectations or if they're coming from your pressure based thoughts.

Alone Time VS Keeping People Out Feb 07, 2022

I love my alone time — it’s where the introvert in me thrives and I love the silence.
I can hear my inner voice clearly, the quiet space is freeing and it’s where some of my biggest chats with my higher self takes place.
I do need to manage this part of me because I can shift into shutting people out and not needing to see anyone. There’s a part of me that’s very happy on my own however I now know that can turn into a dysfunctional pattern of behaviour to lock off my heart and keep people out.
Previously I did this mega unconsciously and didn’t even realise how far I’d pushed the “alone time”. Back then it was a defence mechanism to not let people see my flaws, the not so pretty side or that I wasn’t coping with life.
But now I can sense when it’s healthy space or if I’m closing up. I’ve learned to honour and communicate when I need it and to stay open when I want to close off.
Knowing yourself, your edges, dysfunctional patterns and getting to know more of your true self is one of, and if not the most important thing to discover in this life.
When you know more of who you’re not and live more into who you are, that’s living authentically to you. No one else’s views or opinions of how you should be living matter as much because you know what’s true for you.

How To Handle The Messy Phase When You’re Doing The Work Feb 03, 2022

I am smack bang in the middle of my self initiated growth shit storm. My ego is throwing up MAJOR resistance to listening to my Truth and I'm in all sorts. Self doubt is alive! Second guessing my Truth is alive! Hanging onto the things I have always been done is alive! The chaos feels real!
This is the mess that comes right after you've summoned the Universe and asked for change, growth, and new ways of thinking, doing and being in certain areas of your life. The Universe hears your call or reads your note, delivers you a message or opportunity to change and off you go and make that change. And then, your ego gets in on the action and starts getting in your head, questioning what you've just done. It's the perfect shit storm of anxiety, overwhelm, self doubt and resistance.
Time and time again, this phase comes with growth. It's normal, it's natural and it sucks ass. If you're in the same boat, have a listen to today's episode to help normalise this part of growth.

Healing My Relationship With My Body And Food Jan 31, 2022

It has been the LONGEST journey to like my body. For as long as I've been inside my body, I have punished it in many ways. From over training, under eating, restricting food then binge eating then throwing it up, to drugs, alcohol and allowing myself to have sex with people I didn't want to.
Over the last two years I have been healing my relationship with my body through actually nourishing it with good foods, cooking at home, eating good carbs, protein and fats and training less than I have. As a result, it's the best I've felt in my body and that's a big thing for me to say out loud!
Listen to today's episode as I share with you what I've done to get here and the mental shift that took place to take my focus off how I looked, and rather on how I want to feel.
Lemme know your takeaways and feedback.

The Lesson I Learned When I Got Covid Jan 27, 2022

Covid put me on my butt big time! What started out as hay-fever symptoms, it quickly turned into below zero energy, a non-stop headache, loss of taste and smell and reduced lung capacity.
But what knocked me for a six was the zip-a-dee-doo-da energy levels and not having anything to give expect for going to the toilet, eating food, watching Sex And The City reruns and moving from the couch, to bed.
My ego was really challenged during the 8 days of intense symptoms. No energy to cook, clean, sweep the floors, fluff the cushions, straighten the rug, pick up tiny granules of dirt that no-one else can see but me, and more! Plus, no energy to meditate, journal and make plans for the new year. I felt like the biggest blob and sloth who had nothing to offer or give, and that taught me something.
Have a listen to today's episode and lemme know your takeaways.

Own The Fact That You Judge Jan 24, 2022

I am a Judgey Mc Judge. I used to think it was wrong and bad to judge others and have thoughts in my head like, "why are they wearing that? Why is she with him? Why do you talk that way? OMG can you chew any louder?"
Over time I have come to accept and normalise judgement. I was done with pretending I don't judge, when I do! I got sick of the shame I felt and wondered if trying to rid judging was the best path, or if it's something to accept as being human.
When it comes to judging others, I believe what matters is what we do, what we say or don't say, or how we act after the judgey thoughts have entered our minds. Have a listen to today's episode and lemme know what your take on this.

Face Altering Filters Are F***ked! Jan 20, 2022

Never will I support or encourage the use of face altering filters. Do you know how long it’s taken me to love and accept my goddamn face?
From hating the shape of my eyes due to being called a “chink” in primary school, to being called a “round moon head”, to my skin and all its acne and being dumped for someone else who didn’t have pimples, AND MORE!
It’s been a long ass journey for me, and I’m sure for you too. So to be in a culture that has this so readily available to us all, AND CHILDREN is not okay.
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, if you are a person of influence on here, stop using it and lead from the front when it comes to self love, confidence and acceptance.

When Your Gut Says, "NO", You Listen Jan 17, 2022

What a ripper start the year! First up, I was in bed on NYE with COVID and got hit pretty hard. Second, I had my ideas and plan for this year and started mapping them out when I got some energy back. It took some decent time planning out the year as I have OCD tendencies, so when I took a step back to look at the year in a snapshot, my whole body, namely my gut, said, "NO"!
In today's episode I share where I'm currently at - a little lost, unsure and overwhelmed, but also in deep knowing that what has come through for me to shift and change to align more closely with my Self, is my deepest truth speaking.

Why I Turned Away $19K Dec 13, 2021

It can be a real pain in the ass when your values remind you why "this" or "that" doesn't align with you anymore.
Recently, I was offered two decent paying TV commercial roles. One was for four 'n' twenty pies and the other was Sportsbet. When I received the emails the answer was an immediate no. My whole mind, body and heart sang it like a gospel choir. It was such a spectacular "NO" that there wasn't any room to fight it.
It kinda made it easier because I don't eat animals, they're my friends, and I don't support gambling. But what I was most wowed by was the speed at which my values came in and spoke through me.
In today's episode I share about values, staying true to them, why they can be a pain when $19K is wanting to come into your bank account and how to gracefully move on and send in a new order to the Universe without making a big deal of it.

Stop Blaming The Universe For Intervening Dec 06, 2021

You're either consciously creating outcomes in your life, or wishing that things would change, continuously talking about it and then being smacked down on your ass by the Universe.
I was having this chat with my client last week after two major areas of her life went down the toilet. One being her relationship that she wasn't happy in for years, and the other, her work. She wanted both to be better, to be different, to be more aligned with who she truly is. But talk without action creates an accumulative effect, a back log of energy that is stored and can only be stored for a period of time before it goes boom.
In one of our sessions, I let her know this and said you're heading for a Universals ass kicking if you don't start making conscious choices. Her ego was strong, stubborn and in victim mode. But all the while, the Universe was listening, responding and acted before her ego was ready.
In today's episode I go deeper into the benefits of being the conscious creator of your life and share why it's hard. Enjoy!

Live At YOUR Pace And Rhythm Nov 29, 2021

My ego has been getting caught up in living at a pace and rhythm that actually isn't mine. It looks at people around me and thinks, "oh shit, you're not doing enough Kat! You need to hustle more, post more, do more, create more, busy your schedule more!"
It feels when I try to force myself out of how I know I want to live, how I want to create and to dance with life at the pace and paces that are true to me.
So it's been my practice watch this pattern come up, create a shit tonne of anxiety and attempt to put pressure on me. It's been my practice to stay in my lane, own that lane and be a-okay there.

Don't Just "Do" The Work, Integrate It Nov 22, 2021

I had a great moment on a coaching call with The Legends a few weeks back. A good handful of them felt the need to confess that they had taken a break from the modules as they were integrating the work. To their surprise, they got a big "hallelujah" from me and a round of applause.
There's one thing to "do" the work. To know it, read it, talk about and think about it, but the next and most important layer is to integrate what you know, what you've read, talked and thought about into your life. That's the hard layer.
The ego will resist that step because it means change. "What if you lose your partner, job, friends, or your whole identity?" These are the silent thoughts the ego has that cock-block you from making brave and bold steps.

Throw Your Relationship Criteria List In The Bin Nov 15, 2021

I had a list, a big fat giant list of everything I wanted in a man. But I didn't just have one list ... I had umpteen lists because I kept forgetting to add "this" or "that" and wanted to make sure the Universe got my order right!
For years I was delivered what I wanted - the height, the success, the hunger for life, the physical chemistry. But for all those years, each person I'd meet and date never quite hit the sweet spot in my heart.
With spiritual maturity and epic annoyance of not attracting in the real deal, I got rid of all the lists and started focusing on the essence of the relationship I desired. I imagined the energy of "us", the feel "us", the way I was around him, felt around him and imagined that I could be my full self with "him".
This practice helped me open my mind, my heart, my eyes and senses to look beyond what I thought I wanted, and instead, acknowledge the essence of the person. As a result, my mind, my heart, my eyes and senses helped me acknowledge Steve as my person, someone who I friend-zoned for years because I had that darn list!

Living An Enriched Life Nov 08, 2021

Something is definitely shifting in me of late, and I'm letting it happen. Usually, I'd psychoanalyse it and try to make sense of it, but this time, I'm allowing the intelligence to do it's thing as I step aside.
I can feel areas of my life that I have ignored or not placed as much importance on call me to lean into them, like family, adventure, and creating experiences and moments that I've previously deemed boring.
My clients have been inspiring me so much with their lives and it's sparked conversations between Steve and I. We've talked about living in different parts of the world, to travelling alone and honouring our independence, to how we want to lead as parents and care-givers, and more. It's been enriching and I'm excited.

Permission To Grieve Nov 01, 2021

My beautiful client and now friend, Maddie, experienced a miscarriage over twelve months ago after falling pregnant unexpectedly. Being a mum was not on her radar at that time in her life, so this threw her for six.
Maddie went through a McFlurry of emotions and thoughts about what to do, what not to do and reassessed her life in a very rapid and short period of time. At her core, she knew that having this baby was not for her, but she felt guilt and shame around this. She thought of all the women finding it difficult to fall pregnant when they so badly wanted to, and how she was in a position of choice of whether to keep the baby, or not.
After looking online with not success for groups, podcasts or forums of women who has been pregnant, didn't want the baby and miscarried before having an abortion, left Maddie feeling alone and unsure of what to do with all the feelings moving through her.
In today's episode, Maddie shares her tough emotional journey with allowing herself to feel grief and how difficult it was for her to own her choice due to considering other womens' feelings before her own.

Holy mother of Jesus, Mary and Joseph. The last four days have been some of the most intense, in your face healing that's taken place for some time.

In these last four days our family has undergone very deep and radical healing. I woke up on my birthday plagued with the same thoughts about my family, not belonging and wishing for a different life. I woke sad, unhappy and anxious. This made me really fking mad and so over myself and my ego. I knew something had to change and today was the day!

Being Okay With Choosing To Not Have Children Oct 11, 2021

It's been a long process to land in owning that I don't want to have children of my own. I've wrestled with this for some time, listening to others opinions, watching others with their children and thinking, "fk, am I missing something?" I've been told me many, "oh but Kat, you'd be such a great Mum!" I look at my parents and think I'm robbing them of something wonderful, come on Kat, just do it!
But to be radically honest, I just don't have that deep down feeling in my guts to have a child. And when this deep down feeling has spoken to me about other areas of my life, I know, "yep, this is for me!"
I feel pretty raw about sharing this and uncomfortable. But this is my truth and I'm becoming more confident in owning this, despite what my ego, or others, say.

My Journey To Being Vegan Oct 04, 2021

When I don't live true or closely to my values, my inauthenticity radar starts ring-a-ding-dinging! Most of my life before the age of 25 years old was having no values or saying I had them but never being able to stick to them. People pleasing and seeking approval came first and as a result my self esteem, confidence and trust in self dwindled. No wonder I struggled to look at myself in the mirror.
Over time, I started paying attention to what truly mattered to me, how I wanted to show up, how I could be proud of myself and like myself. As a result, my values started to come forth and challenge the way I was thinking, feeling and behaving. It's been one heck of a journey and to this day they still challenge me.
In today's episode I share about my path to becoming vegan. I thought this was fitting as it's Be Kind To Animals Week this week and I wanted to share the time it took to finally land in a place where I am congruent with my value of Kindness with regards to animals. To be real, it's been a long road of 9 years to get here.

Edgars Mission: Championing Kindness Sep 27, 2021

Pam Ahern is a deadset super hero in my eyes. She's the creator of Edgars Mission here in Victoria, one of my most favourite places on Earth. A lifelong animal lover and activist, Pam always had her heart for the animals. After being a long-time champion equestrian, everything changed when a tiny piglet, the eminent Edgar Alan Pig, trotted into her life in 2003 and led her down a path she’d never imagined.
She gave up her full-time paying job, hung up her riding boots, and dedicated her life to the protection of farmed animals. With Edgar firmly at its heart, Pam built the sanctuary, Edgars Mission from the ground up and set in motion outreach programs that would bring farmed animals out of the dark unknown and into public view.
Pam is also the proud Australian Ambassador for World Animal Day and was a 2014 Victorian Local Hero Finalist in the Australian of the Year Awards. In the lead up to Be Kind To Animals Week, I have brought Pam on the podcast to talk all things kindness and how we humans with beating hearts and change animals' fate through our choices.

How Now Milk: An Alternative Approach In The Dairy Industry Sep 20, 2021

I rate Cathy. She's an awesome human who took a huge leap of faith that was driven by her heart and values. Cathy couldn't comprehend that calves were being taken from their mother's and slaughtered so we could drink their mother's milk. I for one stand with her on this matter, big time!
HOW NOW Dairy is the end result of her heart and vision. It's what happens when a music industry exec (that's Cathy) meets a third generation dairy farmer, and together they decide to challenge the globally accepted inhumane dairy industry practices and create an ethical dairy farm based on the simple premise of kindness.

Third generation dairy farmer and renowned dairy nutritional consultant, Dr Les Sandles found himself becoming increasingly disenfranchised with the direction of the Australian dairy industry toward mega-dairies and in 2012, he and partner, Cathy Palmer, a passionate animal right activist who had built a career in the music industry, decided to stop complaining about the problem – and become part of the solution.

The dairy is small, family owned, and fiercely independent. They're proud of their commitment to a more ethical approach to dairy production.
Keep your ears and heart open in this one and see how much impact the value of kindness has when it's put into action.

Captain Asshole! Sep 13, 2021

Been doing my darnedest to keep Captain Asshole at bay, however, she's making a regular appearance at the moment and it's been a real face ache. It's been exhausting coming back to my senses, getting out of them, coming back to then and so on, and I want to share here I manage myself during these times.
It’s not always easy sharing when I’m not okay. I fear that people will think I’m unstable or not fit for the work that I do. I fear I’ll turn people off and fk up my business. But, I’m a firm believer of not posting about not being okay one day of the year and then showing a highlights reel every other day. That to me is inauthentic.

Let Yourself Feel Again Sep 06, 2021

For a lot of years, I numbed pain through drugs, cigarettes, dysfunctional behaviours and avoiding being with myself. To feel meant I had to address what I wanted to turn a blind eye to. It meant that there were truths for me to face or accept as reality when it was preferable to live in la-la land.
These days, feeling all the feels can be incredibly overwhelming, especially in areas I give a fk about - the environment, animals and the state of humanity. Accepting the extreme contrast of beauty and pain of this world can be a real struggle, so it's important that I have tools at the ready to support that feeling journey.
But I'd rather feel than numb out, than turn a blind eye, then pretend something isn't happening, when it is. Feeling the feels allows emotions to move through me, each of them communicating a different message that helps me make an empowered choice once I've allowed them to pass.
Have a listen to today's episode about allowing yourself to feel again. I hope you enjoy it and take some gold nuggets from it.

Stop Hiding Your True Essence Aug 30, 2021

My ego's greatest fear is being taken down. I have a story that goes something like this. "If I be me, I'll be taken down and have nothing left. I'll have everything to lose and I can't bear that pain again. So don't have anything to lose".
Recently this came up when I was doing a process on being my real and raw self. The same story reared its head and it became obvious that my ego is so consumed with, "not being me", because if I'm not the true me, then nothing can hurt me. As a result, if I stayed focused on that, protecting myself for fear of being rejected and alone, I'd abandon my soul for a false sense of security.

Focus On The True End Result Aug 23, 2021

I've got big dreams that I focus on and act in favour of. I call them my True North Stars, or end results. These are the desires in my heart that long for me to live into, embody and materialise. They help me grow, be more resourceful and challenge the shit outta my limiting beliefs.
A few of my clients ask me, "but what about on the daily Kat? What about little goals for the day, do you set them?" For sure I do. I call these, "my daily practice". When I ask myself, "what am I in the practice of today?", I intend for the practice to help me serve my highest good and the good of others. This becomes a mini end result for me to keep me in check and remind myself that this is the matter I want to make matter.
In today's episode I share about how I go about this in greater depth in hope to serve you in your journey.

In 2013, I wrote a peace essay on what peace means to me. It was an essay competition led by Rotary, that would see 10 young people chosen to go to the Rotary Global Peace Forum in Japan. 60 applicants sent their essays in, me included, and I was one of the 10 chosen to go.
At this time in my life, I had overcome chronic pain, stopped taking medication, broke up from my co-dependent six year relationship and felt like something in me was calling for more. I had overcome so much adversity and felt like an overflowing cup of energy, power and a new zest for life. Something in wanted to give back and take the learnings I had learned and share them.
I spoke to my Dad about this. Dad's a devoted Rotarian and pointed me in the direction of some programs I could get involved in, plus the peace essay. These were the first steps I took towards a path that I couldn't see clearly into, but I could feel it.
In today's episode I share this journey and the essay that I wrote (with a few tears). I believe this episode is an important one as when I wrote this essay, I had no firm vision around what I wanted to do, but had a feeling in me that wanted to be explored. Choosing to follow the feeling led me to where I am today, and maybe there is a feeling inside of you waiting to be acted upon too.

Bust Your Ego’s Illusions Aug 09, 2021

Can you tell when you're in egoic truth (illusion) versus "truth" truth?
In my illusion (although it feels like reality), I’m right and everyone else is wrong. They’re the problem, not me. I haven’t done anything wrong, it’s all on them. They have to change, not me!
My head hurts. I’m tunnel visioned. My energy and heart is closed for business and I’m defensive as all hell. Then I judge, project, separate and disconnect (what a catch)!
When I am aware of myself in this ego drunken state, to sober myself up I unplug from the noise in my head and tune into KAT'S SOUL FM Radio Station (aka, my soul). In there I have access to higher truth and have greater capacity to expand my view of myself, others and life beyond limited thinking.
It's a humbling process to come out of illusion and back into reality. It'll hurt your ego but liberate your soul.

Spiritual Perfection Aug 02, 2021

I fooled myself. I'd tell myself if I did "this", then I'd be rewarded by the Universe and be deemed a true spiritual person. The stories I'd tell myself if I did or didn't do my practices was causing mental disturbance, unrelenting standards and a path of spiritual perfection.
I'm all down for keeping our minds in check and doing the work. But sometimes, part of doing the work is allowing ourselves to be human, to be real with our emotions and to feel what's going on before spiritually bypassing everything with practices.

LIVE COACHING SERIES - Rebuilding A Life Where I Matter, With My Legend, Michelle Jul 26, 2021

We have reached the final session of the coaching series with my Legends, and to finish us off, Michelle has bravely brought herself forward.
Michelle lived for everyone else for a really long time. Her needs, wants or desires weren't ever up for consideration because in her belief system, everyone else's needs, wants or desires were for her to support.
" Kat, I have been living and operating unconsciously for so long, that I have had a massive realisation that I have not taken personal responsibility for anything for as long as I can remember. I have just gone along with whatever anyone wants to do, have been too afraid to make decisions that might “rock the boat”, have not used my voice, and have lost myself - I am 53. For my whole life I have felt as though I am unworthy and that is why I have let others make decisions for me. I am also a procrastinator and think of, “what if this goes wrong?" My husband was in a relationship with another woman for 2 and a half years, 9 years ago. Can you believe that I have hung around for this long? I have been pretending for soooooooo long".

As a result, many of her deep inner longings have gone unacknowledged and unnoticed, and now she is rebuilding herself, doing the work and digging deep into herself. Michelle's story is a familiar one to so many and I am thrilled to share her with you all.

LIVE COACHING SERIES CONTINUED - The Pain Of Perfection! With My Legend, Sylwia Jul 19, 2021

After the coaching series with four of my Legends, two additional Legends reached out and said they were keen to jump on board. And I couldn't resist!
Sylwia's primary limiting belief is, I need to be perfect, and this belief is interfering with her desire to pursue her passion for photography and take the next step in getting experience. In today's coaching call, we uncover where this belief stems from and what her environment was like as a child to feel the need to be perfect.
The reasons that are blocking her from taking the next steps revolve around, "what if she's not good at it, or the photos don't turn out good, or that she may not enjoy doing it". I share with her how her ego is making it about her and not the true end result, which is to express herself through photography.
Listen up to today's episode and see how Sylwia shifts from avoiding taking action to being made accountable for her next best step.

LIVE COACHING SERIES - Who Am I If I’m Not A People Pleaser? With My Legend, Kat Jul 12, 2021

My coaching client and legend, Kat, is upgrading herself in monumental ways. She's currently navigating life and herself without the unconscious need to put everyone else first, do what serves her and connect more deeply with her true self.
This is creating a shit storm for her ego. Her ego sees her as the helper, the pleaser, the "shut your mouth woman and get on with it" kinda woman. Since she was little, seeking validation from those around her became her job description. When her mum died and step-father left, she doubled-down to become the carer of her two sisters and shoved her needs aside.
You'll hear in this episode just how much this decision has fkd with her over her years. And now, she's writing a new story for herself.

LIVE COACHING SERIES - Running From Reality With My Legend, Kieran Jul 05, 2021

When Kieran reached out and emailed the below, I knew he had to come on the podcast.
"After so long of thinking I knew who I was, I realise and understand that my lifestyle and a job I miss dearly, clouded my actual perception of myself as I would tend to live two separate lives (I guess a contrast of my ego vs my heart). I am learning ways in which to deal with this anxiety when it happens but I just want to understand more and how to lean into my kick-ass self".
In this episode, it becomes clear to Kieran why he learned to shove his feelings and needs aside to ensure he wasn't an extra burden on his mum. Her ease came before his which led him to carry on and be okay when wasn't. This pattern created a reality of unconsciously finding ways to escape reality, and in most recent times this was through his work.
Now, life for Kieran is about staying with reality which is helping him be more real and facing things rather than running from them. Amen to you Kieran.

LIVE COACHING SERIES - When Can I Be Me? With My Legend, Eve Jun 28, 2021

When Eve and I jumped on this coaching call, to hear that her belief system said that there were only two options for how she could operate in the world, and that to get someone to love her were, "don't be too much or make sure you're enough", hurt my heart.
In today's episode, we uncover where this belief came from, how this has impacted Eve's life up until today in relationships and how she shows up, and how life could be moving forward if she allowed herself to be who she is, rather than constantly adapting and abandoning herself.
Eve, I am so damn proud of you for being so real and raw in this episode. Amen to you!

To kick us off, we have Jess, who emailed to me:
"I believe I can’t have what I want. Not the relationship, bank balance, happiness, job, being a practitioner, friendships etc..My dreams don’t matter and life is a struggle. The behaviour associated is separation, withdrawal, deprive myself of intimacy, push everyone away, resentment and unhappiness / un-fulfilment and waiting for the universe to give me a get out of jail free card".
Listen as we clear up Jess's thought processes and the clear guidance and action she now has moving forward.

Inconvenient Truths Jun 14, 2021

We've all had those moments where an inconvenient truth lands in your lap. It's the, "it's time to slow down and enjoy your life", "this relationship doesn't serve you", "you are settling for less than you're worth", "your health will be at risk if something doesn't give".
Deep down you know it's true, but you also know it'll rearrange you. When truth comes in, resistance comes next . What you do next is completely within your hands. You're gifted with the opportunity to do the hard work, or, live a hard life.
Today's episode will have you take the time to listen to the truths you've been "too busy" to make time for and give you the chance to make space for change.

How Not To Give Up On Your Ideas When Sh!t Gets Hard Jun 07, 2021

When you have a wicked idea and it feels true, a rock block can be very fricken annoying. Some road blocks are small whilst others are harder to move through. When I first had the idea to create a meditation app, I knew I'd meet some block along the way, but this one tested my commitment to the end result.
Many times I doubted the app and if I could trust my intuition on this one. I needed to become extra resourceful to bring this one into reality and meet a lot of my egoic limiting beliefs.
In today's episode I share with you how I move through road blocks, the tools I use to keep me connected to the end result and what to expect from your ego when shit gets hard.

What Are You Avoiding? May 31, 2021

I meet resistance frequently, and these days I welcome it.
It comes right after I’ve realised something that’ll help me grow or when I get an answer to act upon. It says, “nahhhhhhhh, let’s not do that for A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z reasons Kat!”
Back in the day I’d hate myself for having resistance, thinking that I’m shit or not evolved enough yet to not experience it (thanks ego).
So now I let resistance have its place and allow my ego to chuck a tanty. Maybe it’s a day, three days or a week. But I have a time limit on it, and after a period of conscious resistance, I take the reigns and take the action.
It’s a new way of handling resistance and I really like it. I’m keen to hear how currently manage resistance. Or if you’d like some guidance on this, DM me.

The Power Of "The Work" May 17, 2021

A client of mine finished up coaching recently and she said in our last session, "Kat, I don't know how to be my old self anymore - it feels unnatural!" BOOM! In the beginning, her false self felt normal, to the point where she thought it was her. But overtime she distanced herself from this false belief. She created space between thoughts and slowly began to free herself. This is the power of the work!
Is it hard? Yes. Is it unnatural in the beginning? Yes. Are there times you lose the battle to the old self? Yes. But eventually, with enough commitment and dedication, you make the shift.

Listen To Your Inner Child May 10, 2021

I owe a massive s/o to my inner child for being the creative spark behind all I do.
Meet little Neng (Filipino nickname), my kickass inner child who I shut out and hid away for too long, for fear of being rejected and not liked because I thought it’d be easier to be rejected for someone I’m pretending to be. I altered who I was to fit in, please others and sacrificed my soul for things I knew I didn’t want to say yes to, but did, which took me to a place of losing who I was and veering away from my true north.
I keep her real close to me these days as she helps me lighten up, follow my bliss and do more of what lights me up!

When You Fear Letting Go Of The Old You May 03, 2021

I was afraid to get better. And when I say "I", I mean my ego. I thought if I got better, no one would care about me anymore. No one would ask me how I am or think about me. That if I was well people would get on with their lives and I'd be left on my own. Sounds fkd up, and it is, however I appreciate the ways of the ego and the lengths it'll go to, to keep me in a box of, "this is just the way life is!"
So when Professor Jackson, my Neurologist said to me, "you can be pain free if you choose to really put your mind and actions towards it", my ego felt threatened. And it felt threatened because he spoke to something in me that said, "YES, he's right!" His words woke up a dormant power inside that would eventually give life to self responsibility, freedom and choice.
My ego reminded me of all the times I tried to get out of pain with no successful outcome, telling me, "there's no use, no point, it won't work, what does this guy know?" I now know it was trying to protect me from being powerful, which would then lead me to being well, free and happy. It was time for me to let go of getting love from something being wrong with me and choose to receive love just as I am. That no particular state would make me more loveable or gain more attention.
Letting go of ego stories and reframing can be a hard slog as all my coaching clients will know too well. But fk, it's worth it.

Moving Through Resistance Apr 26, 2021

There is so much magic around us and within us to experience, and for those who dare to open and play with this magic will know just how special it is. When it comes to my coaching clients, some are super open to It - intuition, energy, signs, spirit, whatever you want to call 'It'. Then there are some clients who are logical thinkers, who know something is out there but are more afraid to welcome it into their lives. Their ego's spook them, telling them, "it's not safe", and so they rely on logic and what they know cognitively to guide them through life.
I tell them, "if want something more, deeper and soulful for yourself, you have to be willing to trust a new way forward". They agree.
If you are in this same position then today's episode will be great for you.

When Friendships Become Toxic Apr 19, 2021

I had a pattern of attracting in a BFF where we would become inseparable and then the friendship would die. Little did I know there was an unconscious belief going on that sought a BFF who could help me direct my life because I sure as hell didn't trust myself to run my life. There was a mutual dependency on one another and that eventually led to toxic ways of relating. Not being myself was a big contribution to the friendships being tumultuous and it was my responsibility to shift that.
In today's episode I share how I began to trust myself and become an independent being and how I now see friendship. Enjoy!

Whilst going for his own personal pursuits of happiness and potential, Gabe has needed to meet anxiety head on since a child after losing both his grandparents in a short amount of time. Not knowing how or who to express his emotions and feelings to, his thoughts turned on him, leading to anxiety and obsessive compulsive behaviours.

Don't Allow Yourself To Suffer Mar 29, 2021

I experience anxiety pretty frequently. I can get anxious that I’m not doing enough, that I’m doing too much, that the house isn’t clean enough, that I have a full week of coaching and meetings, that I don’t have a full week of coaching and meetings AND SO MUCH MORE!
I feel it in my chest. My breath becomes shallow and I’m breathing in my upper chest only and not into my belly. It gets real tight. Sometimes I do something to ease it - dance, listen to music, write the shit out that’s in my head, talk it out to Steve or just leave it alone and get on with my day with it there.
I get anxious due to my beliefs and stories created by my ego that is never fking satisfied with now life “is”, or how life is changing or ANYTHING really! It finds something about me to pick on, my relationship to pick on, my business to pick on. As I move forward in life, it focuses on all that could go wrong. When I’m in my manifested reality, it wants the old life. If I stay still for a moment, it tells me I ain’t doing enough.
There is just no winning with it!!
So I know it’s there, doing it’s best to create angst and suck me into the angst. That’s where I’m most proud. The sucking in of the anxiety is no longer there. I feel it, I observe it and I choose what is best to do next. There is freedom in allowing anxiety to come up, be there and to powerfully choose what do to next.

Embodying The Work Through Experience Mar 22, 2021

I love to learn through experiences. For me, it creates massive and immediate transformation in my body. It's not just my head learning something, it's an integrative process. I've made it my personal responsibility to bridge the gap between where I am and where I want to be and that's been my jam for over a decade now.
Back in the day when I hated my body and disrespected my boundaries, I reached a point where I was so tired of the self hate. After a chat with the Universe and myself about wanting to shake this, signs started coming in about nude modelling. I took a big leap of faith and followed my intuition which led to incredible healing around my body and past traumas.

Feeling Lost In New Territory Mar 15, 2021

I’ve been having chats with my future self and receiving guidance on the changes to make to live even more in alignment with my heart. After making the changes, I’m now in new territory of more space for myself and my default is to fill it with work. I asked for the change I’m experiencing, and with that change comes a rearranging of how I once lived to how I choose to live moving forward.
I’m right in the midst of resistance and angst to the new reality I’ve created and I’m in the practice of being with this current state. Instead of avoiding or running away from it, I’m allowing it to be there because it’s simply part of the process. The less I fight it, the easier it will pass, because it always passes.

Make Yourself Matter Mar 08, 2021

I spent a lotta good years abandoning myself. Taking care of me wasn’t on the priority list, so you guessed it, everything or everyone came before me. The message I was sending was, “I don’t matter, I’m not important, I don’t have a backbone”. Speaking up and standing up for what I wanted felt too awkward, so I bid farewell to my sense of self.
It’s taken a lot of years to find my way back and to stay true to the most basic and foundational work — taking care of myself. This looks like moving my body daily, giving my mind space in meditation or contemplation, having quality alone time and eating well. These are my absolute non-negotiables that I just won’t fk with anymore. No matter how full life gets, these stay!!
This is sending a message that I matter, I’m important and I’m strong mentally to honour myself”. If you’re fking with your foundations, ask yourself what are your non-negotiables and choose one to focus on. Start somewhere.

Learn To Be Still Feb 22, 2021

I’m undergoing some deep energetic shifts and my ego ain’t liking it one little bit. To be truthful, I’ve been experiencing a fair whack of anxiety and self doubt. There’s a call I’m answering to really serve how I choose to serve, to create my life and use time how I really want to and it’s causing me to look at what I’m doing, reassess it and make changes. My word INTENTIONAL for this year is really well lit.
This means I’ve been working my absolute ass off to get things ready for The Legends launch, and at the same time reevaluate and reflect on what and what isn't working. It was perfect timing when I looked over @taniayorgey instagram today to pick a card and it was The Tower. Time to let go, let whatever needs to crumble, crumble, to rebuild or leave space and not fill it.
So as I hear all the doubt and feel all the anxiety, I choose to focus on what I know I’m being called to step into. Even though it’s challenging, I know it’s right and my future self is guiding me.

Losing Yourself In Relationships Feb 15, 2021

I was that gal who morphed into what my partner did, ate, who be hung out with and how he lived. All my ways of being went “bye bye” because of a belief I held true that went something like this - “If you don’t do what they want to do, they’ll break up with you. You’ll appear difficult, you’ll be a drainer and that’s not how to keep a boyfriend. So just put your shit aside Ms John!”
That led me to planet LOST! and it took months (sometimes years) to retrieve my lost self and put it all back together again. Well fk that! I'd rather lose a relationship than lose myself again. However I do believe there is a sweet spot in the middle and that is that we can own who we are and share ourselves with another without getting lost.

Oh it's easy isn't it, getting caught up in other people's shit storms, or, being the creator of a shit storm and wanting people on your side.

Leaving Behind What You Know For What You Stand For Feb 01, 2021

Cathryn Wills established Sans Beast in June 2017, after a career spanning close to
30 years in the Australian fashion industry.
The late 80’s saw time in retail at Benetton, followed by various roles at Palmer Corporation, before gaining a BA Fashion at Melbourne’s RMIT. A substantial chapter at Country Road then followed, where Wills worked in knitwear, eventually becoming Knitwear Design Manager across the men’s and women’s divisions.
Post leaving Country Road, Wills pursued a freelance design career for a number of
years, before finding her niche at Mimco, joining founder and former owner Amanda
Briskin (-Rettig) in 2004. Wills went on to the role of Creative Director post the sale
of the business, and in 2010, expanded her creative remit to encompass the
commercial leadership of the brand, as Managing + Creative Director.
After living and breathing the world of leather handbags + accessories for over a
decade, Wills adopted a vegetarian diet in mid 2015 - going vegan 18 months later -
and progressively recognized a disconnect between her professional role and her
ethical stance on animal welfare and the environment. Through further education,
Wills saw the need to change her consumptive and creative path, eventually
resigning from MIMCO in early 2016.
In establishing Sans Beast, Wills has dedicated herself to building a design led,
quality brand, with compelling visual + written storytelling. The brand sources
responsibly manufactured, non-leather materials for the collection + manufactures in
an ethically run, family owned factory in Southern China. Sans Beast is PETA
accredited vegan + donates to animal sanctuary, Edgars Mission with every
purchase made on the website.

Stop Wasting Time Jan 25, 2021

If you spend money how you're currently spending your time, would you be broke? This is a question I've been challenging my coaching clients on recently when they tell me they haven't followed through on the work. If you're not using time to your advantage and following through on what truly matters to you, then it's no wonder you're tired, exhausted, pissed off or burnt out. Aka, you're energetically broke.

Building Authenticity Jan 18, 2021

One area where you can build authenticity and the ace feelings it brings, is to match your actions to your words. You would've heard the phrase, "practice what you preach", and this is exactly what I'm talking about. Too many times you may say things about love and light, but act in ways that have zip-a-dee-doo-da with those words. You may preach about forgiveness but are being stubborn as all fk about a past situation. This is being out of alignment and chips away at being authentic.

Living true to your word (and you ain't going to get it perfect every time) is one way you can begin the journey towards being authentic, or sharpen yourself up if you're already on that journey.

Take A Sweet Minute To Reflect Dec 21, 2020

Alrighty, it's the last episode of the year and jeepers creepers it's been a year that has tested all of us in different ways. There's been some epic lessons that have knocked on my door that I've chosen to learn from and continue to evolve this little human self of mine. I'm a firm believer of reflecting regularly and not waiting until the end of year to do a major reflect and possibly being overwhelmed with needing to make change, or being a bull at a gate and then losing momentum too quickly. Anyhoo, here's some of my lessons learned this year and how I got about reflecting as I go.

Wear The Damn Shorts Dec 14, 2020

I love this human so damn much! Nicole Hahn is a fellow lululemon ambassador which is where we met just over a year ago. Uber recently she was part of a lululemon shorts campaign which brought up a lot of my bullshit stories and shame around my legs. I have always told myself, "I'm not a shorts gal", when in truth, I was too afraid to wear them for the fear of being judged. Her voice and message around this inspired me and so many women to say FK YES to wearing shorts and not giving a fk anymore about how they look!

If you experience shame around your body and are in need of inspo and fresh perspective, listen up to this legend!

10 Days Of Silence Dec 07, 2020

Back in 2017 I went to a Vipassana 10 day meditation course. For some months before booking myself in I was intrigued and called to partake in this experience, but my mind was afraid to do it. I doubted that I could endure not speaking, looking at anyone, writing and expressing myself. In truth, I was afraid to be with my own mind without distraction. But alas, the call to go was too strong and off I went. In today's episode I share my experience, lessons and takeaways.

From Anxiety To Living In Her Purpose Nov 30, 2020

This is a MUST listen to be inspired to follow your heart.
Emma is a past coaching client of mine who reached out in 2019 to seek help after having an anxiety attack and feeling depressed for a short period of time. That experience rocked her and I remember our conversation on the phone when she said to me that she wanted these negative thoughts to be gone and never come back. I replied, "that ain't going to happen". I helped Em realise that it's about learning to live with negative thoughts whilst focusing on the things that truly matter to her, and as a result the anxiety should ease.
She came on-board my six month coaching program to help her to focus on bringing into life what her soul desired. Ultimately, she realised she wanted to expand her focus beyond the corporate world and in her heart she wanted to write and create music. Six months went by and she created over 60+ song ideas and is now producing her very own music.

Living In Alignment With Your Truth Nov 23, 2020

If I could describe Dani Stevens, it'd be that she is a HUGE ray of sunshine. Man is one heck of an energy - she's legit palpable and oozes vibrancy. She is someone who is living in alignment with her truth that continues to evolve and I have major respect for that.

Her vivacious personality and down to earth sense of humour is part of her success in motivating others to take control of their lives through health and fitness. Once a corporate ladder climber and living the hustle and bustle life, her journey from burning the candles at all ends to becoming her own version of superwoman, is very inspiring. She began to motivate women by sharing her weight loss (100kg weight loss) journey online in 2012 which took on a life of its own and has opened so many amazing doors and opportunities.

Just talking to Dani you can't help but think, "shit, if she can do it, I can too!" She's an incredible role model for us all and I'm so stoked to bring her to your lives.

When Past Traumas Are Triggered Nov 16, 2020

I am in the process of healing my body from sexual abuse trauma. My mind is like, "are you for real dud? You've done a fk tonne of work on this matter and mentally feel really good about it!", however, my body needs some attention and healing.

When my step-daughter's are here and I hear them walking down the stairs on down the hall, my body literally freezes. My mind logically knows it's them but my body is right back in the moment of being sexually abused. This has been happening intermittently over the last three years and it takes me some time to calm my body down. So I reached out to my White Witch of a Kinesiologist, Elena Pilch, to help me heal the residual trauma in my body.

Living In Duality Nov 09, 2020

The freedom I’ve found in letting my darkness be there without needing it to go away or fixed in order for me to do epic shit, is beyond words.I can’t tell you how many YEARS I wasted trying to fix the dark so I could THEN play in my light. Yet every damn time I’d fix it, thinking BOOM, I’m free, it’d come back and I would feel utter despair and hopelessness.

I’d think I’m a screw up, an idiot, a loser, a nobody, a failure. When I realised my focus was in wasted territory I made it my mission to let my darkness be there, come up when it wanted to have its say and then leave it be. So now when I create something new or meet a new level of potential and I’m metaphorically shitting myself, I let myself feel excited, courageous and pumped AND anxious as all fk.

Prior to this I would hate that I felt all the “bad” feelings, punishing myself for thinking and feeling negative things. It’s been one of the toughest lessons to learn to accept my dark side and appreciate its presence, but it’s been worth the battle.

There's cool shit in your life that you want to go for and experience. It can be living in a new state or city, starting your own business, changing industries, leaving your job to travel, or whatever. But there's a little voice inside your head making up an excuse that says, "what will others think? I can't do that, they'll laugh at me!" That other can be your parents, friends, colleagues or society, and you're using them as a reason for not going for what you want.

Over Giving Your Energy Oct 26, 2020

Calling all energy (over) givers, this one is for you. I'm a sucker for over giving when I listen to my ego. It gets off on being needed and wanted, yet feels resentful towards others and scolds me for when I reach burnout and am forced to take time out. The days are gone of good old solid burnout but I can still over give to a point where I notice my behaviour change (not for the good). In this episode I share the mindset I have today to help keep my energy in check and strategies I have in place to protect me from my ego.

The Weight Of The World Oct 19, 2020

There are many times a day, or week, where I feel the weight of the world and all its problems. When I feel it I feel sad, overwhelmed, angry and hopeless. I feel like a small ant that has no power to make a difference and think there's no point trying. However, I don't stay there too long, in fact, I can't. The anxiety is too much to bare so I choose to channel my fks where they matter. I believe the more conscious, considerate and committed people there are in the world, half the shit we see today that makes us cringe may not exist. I'm fighting for that.

In today's episode I share how I make the mental shift from, "there is no point even trying", to, "come on Kat, channel your fks where they matter", and how I begin to take action.

Long Term Relationships And Sex Oct 05, 2020

Not gonna lie, Steve and I are nearly four years into our relationship and my sexual drive has shifted from when we first met. Now I know this is a normal thing but I wanted to know why for two reasons. One, my, "it's too late, I'm too tired, I'm about to get my period", and so on reasons were wearing Steve down. Second, I didn't want to be nearly 35 years old and dismissing my sexual energy.

I got onto an incredible book by Esther Perel, Mating In Captivity. In my opinion this is a must read for everyone to appreciate the real reasons why it takes a lot of work, creativity and open communication in long term relationships for sex to be part of the relationship.

In this episode I'm sharing my journey and what I've discovered so far.

Creating Success And Learning The Hard Lessons Sep 28, 2020

Emily Osmond and I have shit tonne in common when it comes to creating a business and learning the sucky (but necessary) hard lessons along the way. Em quit her job to go full time in her business when she was 26 years old, with a mortgage to pay and no business plan (sounds like me legend). She knew her job wasn’t making her happy and believed she could create something of her own.

After what she calls a “wild ride on the entrepreneurial roller coaster of highs and lows”, she now runs a global business from her living room, hosts a podcast that is listened to in more than 70 countries, coaches hundreds of entrepreneurs inside her online programs, and loves the work that she gets to call her ‘job’.

Her mission is to help other women to create a business on their own terms that provides them with the income, lifestyle and freedom they desire. Em is an international marketing coach, top-ranking podcast host, speaker, interiors lover and black coffee drinker.

Giving ZEROFKS Ain't Easy Sep 21, 2020

To this day, giving ZEROFKS for the things that I "think" are important or matter (but aren't) isn't easy. I'm forever determining and asking myself, "is this really where I want my focus to be?" There's a part of us all that cares a lot about what others think, how we're going to be perceived and if we'll be accepted or rejected. And it's this part of us that tends to focus and project our own thoughts and fears onto others, taking zero self responsibility for the quality of our thinking. Every time I put out an episode, instagram post or create a new program, this part of me is 100% focused on what others will think and if they'll like it. The key to giving ZEROFKS is how much am I going to make that matter? How much energy and attention am I going to give that thought? Enjoy today's episode and let's see what comes up for you!

Don't Forget Your Humanity Sep 14, 2020

Prior to being told I was wearing my mask wrong and that, "it doesn't work unless it's above your nose", I was in a really flat, emotional and anxious state. I walked out of my home for some fresh air, to enjoy the sun and clear my head. I've been struggling with my the changes in our home of becoming an almost full-time step-parent, homeschooling for what seems like forever, running my business and showing up and being in lockdown for so long. When this person corrected me, I was mid taking in three fresh breaths of air to ease the anxiety in my chest. I thought are you fking kidding me? Is this what we've come to?

Before correcting another person about their mask, consider the human behind the mask, because there is one there with a beating heart.

How are they doing?

Maybe they’ve lost their job.

Maybe they’re as over it as the rest of us.

Maybe they have asthma.

Maybe they just want some fresh fking air for a minute too.

Maybe they have something I don’t know about.

We’re now conditioned to correct people about mask wearing but please, don’t lose your sense of humanity in the process.

To avoid communicating honestly withy your partner when things aren't good, having a hard chat with yourself when you're screwing up your health, or facing really your finances when they're all messed up?

Humble Warrior Aug 31, 2020

This is how I'd best describe Manoj Dias. A humble warrior, beautiful friend to me and a teacher for the world, this legend's energy is something else. We met well over a decade ago in the party scene and even then he was always my safe space. If Manoj was around I felt like an angel was watching over me, for real!

Prior to the life he leads now Manoj was climbing the corporate ladder working his ass off and seemingly "had it all". The job, income, invites, parties, you name it. Yet anxiety was building inside him and escaping through drinking and drugs wasn't cutting it anymore. Insomnia was impairing him and his thoughts were all too consuming. This inevitably led to a major panic attack which scared the living shit out of him, but opened the door to finding alternative solutions to what was going on inside.

His shift from where he was to where he is today reminds us that real and lasting change for the better is possible. It sure isn't easy but it's possible when you take responsibility and accountability for where you are, what you're prepared to do about it and where you'd prefer to be. The work he shares through writing, meditation and speaking pierces straight through your heart and is the medicine our souls longs for. The world is a better place with Manoj in it.

Redefining Masculinity Aug 24, 2020

I met Tom Harkin, founder of Tomorrow Man, in 2019 at a facilitated event run by Lululemon. 150+ legends were there to hear Tom speak about masculinity, what it looks like today and what it could look like tomorrow. Tom took us through some powerful exercises that opened up my eyes which is why I've brought him on the podcast.

He struggled with his own masculinity growing up, wishing he could be like the traditional bloke that was sold to him as a kid. On the night he said he hates public speaking and still gets nervous, wondering why he puts himself through that. But it's obvious to see that this guy has a massive heart to help guys, blokes, dudes and little dudes to redefine what masculinity is through disrupting the traditional stereotype of what it means to be a man, build emotional muscle and talk with greater depth, and reinvent a more flexible version of tomorrow's man.

Struggletown Aug 17, 2020

Been struggling. Between looking after Steve who’s been off his feet for two weeks, homeschooling, coaching, launching a rebrand and lockdown 4 restrictions, my energy has been going out with not a lot coming back in. Last week I cracked and burst into tears in the bathroom. I needed a release. After letting it out I realised I’d shifted into martyr mode and, “I can do this all by myself” mode. This is a default position of mine, proving I can do it alone. I could see myself becoming tough on the exterior, hear my harsh tones and feeling guilty for acting like a bitch. So I’m sharing my little shit-show, how I've (really) been and what I’m doing about it. Hope you're all doing okay out there!

Rescuing Kids From Child Sex Slavery Aug 10, 2020

Millions of children around the world are trafficked or trapped in sexual exploitation with little hope for freedom. Within the first six months of being trafficked, the traffickers intention is to break the children - break their will, their choice and their freedom. I mean fk, can you imagine? The thought of this breaks my heart to say the very least and it's a matter I am dedicated to supporting and helping those committed to shutting down these operations. Today I speak with Paul Mergard from Destiny Rescue who has been helping free children in trafficking for over 20 years. Hearing what he has to say are really hard truths and realities not many of us have to think about. But knowing there are kids out there being forced to have sex with sometimes 20 plus men a night and forced to do it with a smile on their face is devastating which is why I am bringing this topic out of the dark and into our consciousness. One child said to Paul, "I have dreams too but they will never happen for me, so please don't let me dream".

Destiny Rescue's mission is to rescue, restore, empower and protect these children and shutdown these brothels. They have the man power standing by waiting to rescue but are busting for funds. It costs $1500 to rescue one child and $10,000 to do a full raid and shut the whole place down. We as a legendary community can begin these children's birth right to dream again, to dream something better for themselves.

The Professor Who Gave Me The Key To Change My Life Aug 03, 2020

Professor Graeme Jackson is the man I met who changed the game of life for me. I walked into his office riddled with chronic pain, over life and desperate for a way out. He was unlike any doctor or healthcare professional I had met when it came to an outlook on chronic pain. He told me that if I really wanted to change and become pain free then it was up to me to take self-responsibility and put my power in healing this myself.

He is one heck of a human who took the time to sense into what I needed. He offered me the greatest gift of all time which was to take responsibility for my life, leading me to this path I now get to share with you.

Professor Graeme Jackson is a clinician researcher with primary interests in MR imaging technologies applied to the human brain and the neurobiology of epilepsy. He is a Neurologist at the Austin Hospital, Melbourne, Deputy Director of The Florey Institute of Neuroscience & Mental Health and co-leader of the Epilepsy research theme.

Lonely Lies Jul 20, 2020

Feeling as though no one gets you, understands you or knows how you feel can feel very real. The mental stories tell you, "you're alone, no one cares about you and that no one is ever there for you", can also sound real. But more often than not, this isn't the truth. It's a warped version of reality that keeps you thinking and feeling isolated and disconnected.

I played this game for a long ass time, and still do but now know it's my pattern to keep others locked out of my heart so I don't have to open it up and fear getting hurt.

When You Feel Lost Jul 13, 2020

I've felt lost many times in life and it was mostly due to putting my soul away somewhere I couldn't find it, all in the name of fitting in and being loved. Years of this people pleasing behaviour added up, eventually leading to realise, "who the hell am I and where have buried my true self?" I'd wandered so far from being my soul that the journey back felt impossible and uncomfortable, but what I know for sure is that when you realise you're lost, you can begin the process of finding yourself, again.

Focus On What Matters To Your Heart Jul 06, 2020

It’s so inconvenient waking up! It’s a hell of a lot easier to go about life and be unaware of the shit that goes down. Last week, I bared my broken heart when I saw a sheep being treated as if it didn’t feel pain. My blood boiled and my fists clenched, then I sobbed. It hasn’t left my mind and I’ve been on @animalsaustralia site looking at ways to donate and contribute to taking action.

I give one hell of a fk about animals lives and how they are treated and the disconnect we have from how their lives have been, to fill our guts or wear. I will endeavour to use my voice more on matters of my heart to inspire you to reach inside your heart too, on matters worth taking action for. What broke in me has lit a fire inside to do that right thing. I’ll now turn my anger into change.

How To Converse With Kids About The Ego Jun 22, 2020

My youngest step-daughter confides a lot in me and one day she was telling me about a daydream (when her mind wanders off and she thinks "bad" things). Her daydream had her believe that the guest speaker talking at the front of the class was bad, which led her to treat him differently and stay away from him. When she told me this I thought, "shit, how can I help her see the difference between false reality and actual reality?" That question created an idea to share about the "dark voice" and the "light voice" inside of us.

This idea has now become a framework for her to come back to when she's acting in ways that don't feel good or that impact others. It's a game-changer.

Giving Up Was Never An Option Jun 08, 2020

I was waiting for my family to come over to celebrate my 12th birthday. My parents were quiet and seemed concerned. My family arrived late and it was less than a celebratory vibe. My brother had just been admitted to hospital for a skin condition that was taking over his body, and life. To be frank, it looked like someone had blowtorched his body, head to toe, leaving one a small ring of his natural skin around his eyes. It was fkd to say the least. After being told his condition was incurable, my brother went on one long ass journey, battling his own mind and the seemingly finite diagnosis from the medical profession. But that finite diagnosis wasn't good enough for him and never gave up on finding the solution he was after.

Here is his journey of overcoming what the medical profession deemed impossible.

Take An Ego Minute, Then Get Back On Track Apr 20, 2020

Since COVID-19 some of my coaching clients have fallen off the bandwagon of making daily choices, tuning into their higher wisdom and taking action to retrain their subconscious mind. Life turned upside down and with new ways of living, being and working came about and with that, they stopped the things that served them. It's normal and natural to take a minute to regroup and settle into new realities, but to ride that excuse for weeks and months is simply the ego taking over and creates lame excuses.

Humans feel threatened when something is being taken away from us and right now it’s our freedom to do as we please and live our lives as normal. —But right now we could do with a tad more gratitude and reflect on all the times we had full shelves of food, to have the choice to do as we please, that business ran seamlessly to keep us fed, clothed and entertained.

We need to do our part to slow this fkr down whilst keeping the spirit of humanity alive by keeping our heads in check and focused on what matters, eg, keeping yourself and others safe through hygiene measures and distancing when required to help out our medical systems.

This shall pass but we all have our outer and inner work to do during this time.

Keep Your Emotions In Check Mar 02, 2020

Yeowsa, this is good in theory but way more difficult to practice in the moment when you have emotional charge running through your veins, causing you to feel like sh!t, alone, disconnected or victimised by life. Throughout our days people, situations, conversations, etc are potential triggers that activate egoic stories and beliefs that warp reality. Once reality is warped, it's like you're under a spell and can't control your actions, behaviours or responses and risk saying something you don't mean, or pulling away and hiding from life. Developing emotional maturity begins in the mind, becoming superconscious of your unconscious programming when situations take place that are fairly neutral, but your ego feels attacked. In today's episode I share with you one of my simple yet powerful ego clearing processes to keep my emotions in check, which means I am the master of my actions, and therefore my reality.

A Story About Hope Feb 24, 2020

Steve said to me this week, "I'd like to take over your podcast this week and share a story about hope." That's all he said to me and I replied, "okay, sure!" Feeling apprehensive and also a little (don't you fk with my podcast man) we recorded today's episode with him leading it.

Meditate, Mate Feb 17, 2020

I'd be screwed without meditation. It is my go-to tool to pick up the imaginary phone and directly dial my higher self, for guidance and answers to serve me and my world. In the beginning I was scared to meditate, knowing I would get answers to help better me and my life. It meant I had the choice to change and advance beyond my bullsh!t, so my ego had me focusing on how boring it is, or how time wasting it is, or how sh!t I am at meditation (cheers ego). But with perseverance I developed a new relationship with it, and that was when I go inside, I get the answers I am seeking. And as a result I started to trust my inner voice, my intuition which grew self-trust, self confidence and the belief I can change the trajectory of my life, anytime.

In this episode I give you a taste of meditation. I hope you enjoy.

You Don't Have To Go Through Pain To Grow Feb 10, 2020

I believed for a long time that in order for me to grow spiritually, I needed something drastic like a car accident to happen so I could experience a near death experience. I know I know, not something I'm proud to admit, but it's true, I believed that. A friend said to me, "don't you think you can evolve spiritually without going through all of that?" It was like someone slapped me across the face and I woke up to a life-long belief that in order to grow, I must go through pain.

Creating A Sh!t Reality Feb 03, 2020

I contributed to such shit energy this week in our home. For one and a half days my mind was so constricted with its viewpoint on being a step-mum and getting back into the swing of coaching, events and collaborations. My self talk was poor and the result were poor. I needed to sit myself down, have a hard chat and ask better questions of myself.

Why First Dates And Relationships Fk Up Jan 27, 2020

Oh the days of pretending I had my shit together on first dates. I would put on any act I thought I had to in order to be chosen by the person in front of me. Thinking back to the dates is cringe worthy because my behaviour driven by insecurity and the deep belief that I didn't belong. So at the cost of my soul, I did anything I could to belong which only left me, you guessed it, alone.

Money Struggle Jan 20, 2020

So many times I wanted to call it quits when starting out in my business. I was working hard for the money and the return was way less than the tiring hustle I was putting in. Steve took one look at what I was putting energy into - ineffective work, that was driven by a very limiting belief that women can't make money.

Wake Up The Leader In You Jan 13, 2020

Waking up from ignorance is an ugly process and I'm experiencing it right now. It feels like The Truth is staring you right in the eye, grabbing you by the throat and you're standing there in shock feeling all the feels that have been buried by ignorance. This is a natural part of waking up to your power and giving rise to the leader inside you. Sure it's yuck, but it's what must be done to create the change we all truly want to see.

The New Year Doesn't Bring Out A New You Jan 06, 2020

I used to get to the end of year and be like, "oh I can't wait for the new year, this one's been sh!t! It'll be my best one yet!" I legit would think that the new year was a clean slate with fresh energy for the whole year. But I was dragging all my unreconciled crap with me, wondering why the new year wasn't living up to my false expectations. Little did I know (until I knew) that what I did with that year was all up to me.

Falling Short Of Your Potential Dec 16, 2019

I've always known deep down what I wanted, and that somewhere deep down I could have it. But my ego believed that I couldn't have it - that I didn't deserve it, that it wasn't for me, that it just won't happen in this lifetime, blah blah blah. So I reconciled in my head why things weren't working out for me, losing sight and falling short of what I knew could be fulfilled. In the last episode for Season 1, we end with a powerful reminder that there is potential waiting patiently to be actualised. And we are the ones to reignite it.

Ignoring Intuition Dec 09, 2019

Oh I was the master of ignoring intuition. When I did, it lead to unnecessary pain, drama, chaos and shit that was (clearly) avoidable. Worst of all, I knew I heard the intuitive voice but ignored it out of being driven by my dysfunction. I cringe now with what I put myself (and others) through when in truth, I just didn't have to.

Body Shame Dec 02, 2019

I hated my body for a long time and still have my moments of intense body "ugh"! Back in the day I felt disgusting, gross, fat and different, often believing I was inferior to anyone who was thin. This moved into eating disorders, drug abuse, disrespecting my body through sex, zero boundaries and cutting myself off from experiencing orgasms. In a nutshell, I wanted to punish myself for self-destructive beliefs that robbed me from experiencing joy and pleasure.

Stop Cock-Blocking Yourself Nov 18, 2019

Your ego cock-blocks your pure intended ideas that are downloaded from the spiritual plane. The idea lands in your mind, your ego doubts and asks, "how the fk do we do this?" Very quickly, self doubt rocks up and before you know it the idea has vanished when all it wanted was to see the light of day and be expressed. To see your ideas through you must master your ego or else it is the master of you.

What came next was divorce, the loss of his children and family, his company, his wealth and entire identity. This is a story of complete identity crisis and choosing to rebuild from the inside out.

Lame Excuses That Keep You Small Oct 28, 2019

When you say you're going to do something and don't do it, you erode self trust. Self trust and following through is something many of us seek but aren't prepared to do. The ego wants to do things that are easy, that it knows how to do and looks for shinier objects to focus on which causes distraction. The distraction leads to not following through on your original intention and then you end up making lame excuses for why you didn't get the original thing done in the first place. Ugh, tiring right?

Hold Your Own Oct 07, 2019

FOMO often got the better of me, which meant it took a while to stop habits like smoking, drugs, binge drinking, binge bitching, binge complaining and all the rest. My people pleasing desire to fit in and be part of the gang overrided my true desire to live life how I wanted to. I had to make peace with the fact that shifting to a new level of life involved growing pains and that my life wasn't about fitting in anymore.

Pretending to have my sh!t together to the world had me falling into a heap when I'd shut the door in my one bedroom apartment.

I experienced sexual abuse at the age of six and it was one of, if not the most uncomfortable experiences of my life. For nearing two decades after the abuse, I was ruled by a limiting belief system that I had created that deemed me worthless, un-loveable and that no-one, especially males, don't support or love me. These limiting beliefs created one hell of a life that I wanted to escape from, but discovered how hard it was to escape those demons in my head.
