In this deeply personal and powerful episode, Catherine opens up about her recent 33-day disappearance from the public eye. She shares the journey of her Queen of My Life Activation—a sacred container of devotion, healing, and revival.

Over the past 18 months, Catherine has faced grief, transition, and profound inner work. This episode captures the raw truth of what it meant to pause, recalibrate, and rise again—claiming sovereignty, freedom, and beauty in every part of life and business.

✨ What you’ll hear in this episode:

Why Catherine stepped away from the public eye for 33 days

The “seatbelt” metaphor and what it revealed about safety, control, and healing

How grief, ancestral patterns, and old beliefs were released through rituals, journaling, and devotion

The four stages of her Queen of My Life Activation:

Week 1: The Crown Cleanse (release & recalibration)

Week 2: The Inner Court (identity reclamation & soul alignment)

Week 3: The Embodied Queendom (sacred strategy & business clarity)

Week 4: The Royal Return (visibility, voice & revival)

Powerful moments of ancestral healing, dreamwork, and signs from nature

The role of music, rituals, and symbolism (like the Frida Kahlo jacket and golden heart talisman) in anchoring transformation

How she now embodies freedom, bliss, and beauty as her soul’s devotion

💡 Catherine also shares how this personal process is evolving into a future program—an invitation for others to experience their own Queen of My Life Activation.

🌟 Key Takeaways

Healing often requires intentional retreat and sacred devotion.

Ancestral patterns can be released — and doing so liberates both past and future generations.

Freedom is not just a concept; it’s a lived experience of safety, beauty, and authenticity.

Business strategy is most powerful when it’s rooted in soul-aligned sovereignty.

Here’s to you becoming the Queen of your own life and the designer of your own glorious destiny. 💖

This episode is a heartfelt reflection on what the past 12 months have truly been like since moving into our beautiful sanctuary by the sea. It’s been a year of deep contrasts—joy and sorrow, growth and stillness, peace and pain—all coexisting in ways I didn’t expect.

I share the story of how we sold our long-time family home, the emotional challenges of the move, and the unexpected grief that arrived when my niece suddenly passed away. That heartbreaking moment reshaped everything, making it difficult to fully embrace this new chapter of life.

I talk about what it feels like to live with both grief and happiness at the same time, and the profound lesson of holding space for “this AND that.” I’ve learned that it’s okay to honor sadness and still allow yourself to move toward joy. Through surrender, spiritual connection, and healing, I slowly started to release the “seatbelt” that was holding me back from fully living.

Amid the emotional journey, there have been beautiful highlights—like discovering peaceful beaches nearby, connecting with our new community, and learning new skills such as making sourdough, creating a labyrinth, and even becoming a little obsessed with lighting fires in our open fireplace. I also share how nature and quiet living have been profoundly healing, and how they’ve inspired me to create gentle offerings for others, like Whispers, Nudges & Goosebumps, a resource for connecting to intuition, and the Spirit & Spark membership for soulful conversations on spirituality and personal growth.

This episode is deeply personal. It’s about navigating life’s unexpected twists, the healing power of slowing down, and the quiet magic that happens when we give ourselves permission to embrace both grief and joy.

In this episode of Happy Go Fabulous, Catherine invites us into a warm and deeply personal reflection on how small changes can make a surprisingly big difference in our lives. She opens by sharing her experience with growing out her hair from a short pixie cut—a process that has tested her patience and confidence.

After months of feeling awkward and frustrated with the in-between stages, a spontaneous visit to a walk-in hairdresser in Canberra transformed everything. With just a tiny, precise trim, she felt an immediate and dramatic shift in her confidence and energy.

Catherine parallels this with another micro shift: her renewed focus on hydration inspired by a recent Ayurvedic consultation. She explains how drinking warm water at intentional times (especially first thing in the morning and around meals) made her feel more satisfied, less prone to snacking, and more connected to her body’s needs. These seemingly minor adjustments — a few millimeters of hair, a few extra glasses of water — significantly improved how she felt physically and emotionally.

She encourages listeners to explore what small tweaks they could make in their own lives—whether it's related to health, habits, or how we show up for ourselves. Drawing on the metaphor of how even a massive ship can turn course with just a tiny adjustment, Catherine reminds us that transformation doesn’t always require dramatic overhauls—just consistent, thoughtful steps.

She wraps up by offering two resources: The Power of Micro Habits, a practical guide to sustainable daily shifts, and Whispers, Nudges & Goosebumps, a soulful workbook to help listeners tap into their intuition. As always, her storytelling weaves insight with encouragement, inspiring us to stay fabulous and keep moving forward—one small change at a time.

This episode is full of my fave personal tools and coaching go-to’s to help shift the energy, reconnect to your inner wisdom, and get some juicy clarity.

Hey gorgeous soul,

This episode is raw, real, and straight from the heart. It’s a two-part journey where I take you through the emotional rollercoaster of finally dealing with “the boxes.” But spoiler alert – it's not just about boxes. It’s about healing, ancestral release, and finding my breath again (literally).

Part One: The Before I sat down to record this on a whim, full of nerves, dread, and feeling totally overwhelmed. You’ll hear me processing in real-time what it means to finally sort through the boxes that have followed us from house to house – some filled with baby stuff, some with my dad’s things from when he passed, and some just stuffed with memories I wasn’t ready to face.

There’s metaphor galore – from being dumped in ocean waves with your cozies riding up your butt, to being shot out of a whale’s spout. If you’ve ever felt stuck, heavy, or at an emotional crossroads, I hope this part gives you permission to pause and breathe.

Part Two: The After Oh my heart – the shift! Less than 24 hours later, I feel lighter, brighter, and so proud. The process of sorting through the boxes – with intention, order, and support – ended up being seamless and healing. The emotions I was drowning in the day before? Gone. Like really, truly gone. You’ll hear the difference in my voice – the energy, the clarity, the calm after the emotional storm.

I share what worked:

Reflections & Takeaways:

Welcome back, gorgeous! In this second episode of the energy series, we dive into the deep connection between your body, mind, and energy — all inspired by a chat about eyebrows with my friend Kerrie! This episode explores how emotions and experiences are stored in the body and how they can show up physically.

I walk you through each chakra, explaining how energy flows through different areas of the body and what it means when that energy is blocked. I also share my own journey with asthma, sinus issues, and body awareness, showing how emotional healing influenced physical symptoms.

We also look at face reading — how facial features align with chakras and can reveal hidden emotional and energetic patterns. From lips to noses to eyebrows, your face can be a roadmap to understanding your inner world.

You’ll hear about the impact of energy on skin texture, tattoos, posture, and even how your hairstyle can affect your thoughts. I also share my morning ritual using affirmations and facial tools to support energy flow.

This episode is packed with insights to help you understand the secret language of your body and start listening more closely to what it’s trying to tell you.
