After breaking down on her kitchen floor surrounded by crying babies, Katy knew something had to change. In this episode, she shares how meditation, self-care, and small shifts transformed her life—and how it can do the same for you.

Katy shares her powerful journey from anxiety and burnout to finding peace and purpose through meditation, sobriety, and self-discovery. With four kids, a demanding life, and societal pressures weighing her down, Katy hit a breaking point that ultimately led to profound transformation. She now guides women in midlife to reconnect with themselves through the practice of meditation, empowering them to shed the “shoulds” and live in alignment with their true needs.

We also discuss how retreats, like the one we’re co-hosting in Panama, provide an opportunity for deep healing, connection, and the creation of sustainable wellness habits. https://risingwomanproject.com/retreats/panama-spring-2025-retreat-in-cambutal/
