You Don't Always Have to Follow the Plan with Hannah Johnson Jan 17, 2022

Show notes

This week Kat (@kat.defatta) is bringing one of her oldest and best friends on the show, Hannah Johnson (@hanfran5). Hannah is someone who has always just gone for it- whether it be a job, relationship, or just a new experience. She left a stable and (what appeared to be) predictable life after college for a box full of unknowns and moved to L.A. without a job or a clue how she would get one. She's someone who has learned how to appreciate the goodness of what she has even in the midst of not getting what she thinks she wants. Together, Kat and Hannah talk about how to just "do the thing" and leave behind what is expected of you and what society says about "doing it right". And hey, maybe you don't need to quit your stable job and move to Bali. . . but you may need to change up your schedule or reevaluate if the things you feel like you're missing out on are really things you care about.

You Are Not Your Depression with Hannah Brencher Jan 10, 2022

Show notes

We are THRILLED to have the one and only Hannah Brencher (@hannahbrencher) on the show. Hannah is an author and speaker who sheds light on the tough realities of life while also spreading hope into what can and will be when we face those realities. I’ve been a big fan of Hannah for awhile now and I am excited for y’all to get a taste into the real life magic she creates just by being who she is! We talk about all the things but really dive into what depression felt like for Hannah and how she found her way out of one of the hardest fights she’s ever been a part of. Depression is real, tough, and scary; but depression does not define who you are and what you’re allowed to do with your life. How Hannah lives and speaks into so many human souls is a beautiful example of what it means to know that, you are not your depression.

You can learn more about Hannah and find her new book HERE.
