32. Spiritual Awakening in Midlife: What Happens When You Listen to Your Gut


Listen Later

What if a near-fatal car accident was the divine interruption you didn’t know you needed?

In this powerful and soul-stirring episode, Cathy sits down with healer, mom of 3, and former military finance professional Ravyn Robinson-Barco to explore what it really means to reinvent yourself in midlife. From traumatic brain injury to discovering the world of Reiki, Ravyn’s story is one of grit, grace, and a deeply spiritual reawakening.

Together, they explore:

✨ What midlife reinvention looks like after identity-shifting loss
🧠 Living with a TBI and learning to function differently
🌿 Why alternative healing (Reiki, acupuncture, herbs) worked when traditional medicine didn’t
💬 High-functioning masking, mom guilt, and spiritual intuition
🌀 Faith, motherhood, trauma, and the courage to step into purpose

Ravyn’s authenticity, wisdom, and warmth will speak directly to your soul—especially if you're feeling stuck, burnt out, or longing for something more in this season of life.
