  • Life Is Not Just About The Before And Afters

    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

    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

    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

    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. 
    Love Kat & Steve x

  • Next Best Step (VS) Next Perfect Step

    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.

    Love Kat x

  • What To Do When You Lose “It”

    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

    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

    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

    **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

    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.
