Conversations With Katy

After two seasons, I'm sharing my heart and some of the lessons 2021 has taught me.

We can all attest that living though a pandemic has run havoc on our nerves. For many anxiety levels are through the roof. So I was extremely happy to talk to my latest podcast guest Sarah Falk, a 4 time Cancer survivor who shared tips on how to deal with Health Anxiety and so much more!

What does it take to have a long lasting, loving and successful relationship? This is the questions I wanted answered when I decided to chat with Jeline. Jeline and Sheldon have been married for the past 24 years and continue to be great friends and lovers. Both successful in life and in love, I wanted the to know their secret and Jeline shared it all!

A miscarriage carries with it, so many emotions, from feelings of loss to thinking that something is 'wrong with you' but Natasha Carlow shares her story of strength and hope as she reminders us, that in times like these, we do not not have to go through these moments alone, for help and support is always available. *Please note: there are some sound quality issues with this recording but the information was too important to not be shared.

Monogamous or Polyamorous? What say you?  Some would argue that we are not monogamous by nature but only sit in this space because of societal norms. While others believe that we all long to find the "one". This is the concept that I discuss with Lena Lang who shares her own explorations and findings from her personal journey, into Polyamory.

When it comes to dealing with grief and loss never will we be more tested than in the middle of a Global Pandemic! Life continues even in the middle of it all and almost daily, we are forced to deal with our feelings surrounding death and loss. In this episode, I talk to Lisa Keefauver, who tells me about what an unexplained illness and the sudden death of her husband taught her about loss and grieving. This social worker turned grief and empathy activist, is using the power of narrative to create a Grief-Smart Culture.  Lisa shares what we can all learn from death and loss, for although we grieve, hope in the future is still ours to explore.

Michelle Borel describes herself as woman who is focused on love and the power of "I am!" She is a Radio personality, television host, producer, marketer and author! Flowing with energy, she spoke to me about the inspiration behind her writings and how you too, can tap into the power of manifestation and self-love.

I read a quote that said "it's strange how often a heart must be broken, before the years can make it wise." This rang true for me as I spoke to Angelina Watkins a Transformation Coach who now helps women navigate through their own "heartbreak experience" but it took losing everything; and gaining the strength to walk away from a relationship fill with infidelity with a baby in tow. Today however, she shares her journey of self discovery and self love and how you too, can find your way back to love and living in your true potential.

Many of the infidelity stories I've heard have come from women who have had to deal with the sadness and loss of trust, when their partner strayed. However, always wanting to have fair representation of topics as heavy as these, I reached out to Jillian Lama who "flipped the script" and shared her story and even more importantly her discovery, of what was really at the root of her own indiscretion.

Oftentimes behind the glitz and the glamour of success or what might appear to be the perfect life, hides a sadness that many cannot comprehend. Sarah Inglefield shares her story of how easy it is to become lost in the toxicity of a relationship that doesn't support or nurture you and how she found her way back 'home'. I know you'll be inspired.
