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.

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.

Love, Kat x

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.

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.

Enjoy my loves, oh and also, I'll be releasing two episode per week! Monday's and Thursday's you'll have me in your earballs.

We're ending the podcast year with some big questions my loves. In today's episode there's no fking around, ducking, weaving or avoiding the questions that really deserve some air time.

I strongly suggest you have a journal and pen by your side and take time to answer the questions.

All my love, Merry Christmas and I'll see you in your earballs in 2022.

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.

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!

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.

I hope today's episode lands with you. Lemme know your take-aways and insights.

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.

Enjoy today's episode and be sure to give us your feedback via review, DM or email.

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!
