  • Q&A with a Doula: How to Feel Safe During Discomfort in Labor and Postpartum

    Part 2 coming next week!

    Britt Mason and I started working together about a month ago to prepare for the birth of my first baby this upcoming July! I’m now 26 weeks pregnant, and from the beginning, it was so important to me to call in a doula to help with this transition into motherhood.

    We initially clicked when discussing concepts like intuition, and the journey from maiden to mother. Britt’s philosophies are metaphorical and speak past our fears in a way that brings out how capable and safe we are.

    We have some Q&A videos coming your way on pregnancy, labor, and postpartum!! If there’s anything you have on your mind that you want to see us cover in the upcoming weeks, drop them in the comments 💌

  • Why The Warrior Makes Your Life Softer than the Prince Ever Will

    Last weekend, I became sucked into a new TV show on Netflix called ‘Sandokan.’ I’m typically not someone who watches action-heavy shows, but there was a beautiful love story, and I knew of the actor from another show!

    The dynamic in the show between the female lead and her two love interests lead me to think about some of the archetypes that I’ve written about in romance books, as well as how these different types of masculinity play out in our daily lives and relationships.

    Many of us grow up wanting the prince, then maybe we have a bad boy phase, then we reach a point where we want a man who is kind and romantic and a protector and provider.

    However, when we come to face that kind of man, the kind who embodies his inner warrior, it can sometimes trigger our nervous system. He reflects everything we are, and who we can be that we might feel fearful of becoming. Everything would be comfortable and cozy with the prince rather than the warrior! But comfort does not always mean safety and peace.

    In this episode, we dive into the difference between a man in his prince archetype vs. warrior, examples from the show (you are warned before any spoiler mentions!) and how true, warrior-like masculinity uplifts your confidence, capability, and femininity.

  • debunking the illusion of softness to truly create peace, and how to tell if you’re teetering on avoidance

    You know that feeling; When you’re home alone, your favorite Netflix show is on in the background, you’ve just saged your house, and are about to indulge in a sweet treat. Everything is calm, and peaceful, until you pick up your phone.

    Or, someone comes over and brings a stressful story.

    Or, you realize your smoke alarm is about to go off from the delectable, chocolate chip cookies you’re over-baking, and you’re scrambling to open the windows.

    The illusion of wanting a soft life is believing it means not participating in the natural dance of life, and feeling a sense of defeat. Like your reality is perfect until the outside world storms through and rains on your parade.

    In this episode, we debunk the illusion of a soft life, and what true softness feels like both in your mind and body. We discuss how to check yourself to see if you are acting from fear or avoidance, rather than pursuing a soft life from a place of recognizing your own inner power to hold more with ease.

    Enjoy!

  • I'M PREGNANT! The story of finding out + what the myth of Chaos and Gaia have taught me about the trenches of the first trimester

    Welcome to Season 2 of The Glow Code podcast! I am PREGNANT!! This was the hardest secret to keep, especially because of all the ways this experience has been upleveling my self image and spiritual journey. At the time of recording and uploading this, I will be 12 weeks tomorrow.

    I couldn’t have asked for a more synchronistic, beautiful way for this baby to come into my womb, and I’m sharing the details of how we found out about the pregnancy in this episode.

    This first trimester has been testing everything that I have taught myself through the years about surrender and self regulation. What used to feel like a gentle wave with my emotions has felt like a never-ending roller coaster ride. BUT, when we have the awareness of manifestation, and the process of creation, we can navigate these feeling like we are in a submarine vs. a sailboat.

    When making my 2026 vision board, I stumbled across an image of the goddess Gaia, which got me curious about her story. What I learned from her has given me a revelation with not only the process of navigating this pregnancy, but manifestation itself.

    Enjoy!

  • The Habit That'll Be Necessary to Create Your Dream Life in 2026: Season 1 Finale

    2026 is right around the corner, and I think we have all been in anticipation of 2025 coming to a close! This year was a massive year for people to shed, release, and let go of old habits, thoughts, and identities. If this year rocked your world (in a turbulent way) you’re not alone!

    2025 was a 9 year in numerology, making 2026 a 1 year. That means that 2026 will be a year of fresh starts and new beginnings.

    In this episode, we discuss the habit that will be a must for you to implement to create your dream reality in 2026, and it has nothing to do with vision boards or affirmations!

    The podcast will return in January 2026 for Season 2, and if all goes according to plan, you’ll find out about a secret project that’s been cooking behind the scenes… 👀

    Thank you all so much for the support on the podcast, and I’m wishing you all a happy holiday and New Year!

    Xoxo,

    Kate Dove

  • The Truth About Collapsing Time ~ How to Work Backwards From Your Goal to Manifest

    Life isn’t a standalone book; it’s a series.

    However, most fantasize the main character moment where they’ll be victorious after landing a new job, finding the perfect relationship, or getting their dream body. It provides this feeling of an exhale, and safety.

    What you may not realize is that safety is the key to all manifestation. It anchors us into this body, this timeline, and this reality. We emit safety through our energy (scientifically known as our electromagnetic field), which is the language of the universe.

    In this episode we discuss:

    * How safety relates to manifesting

    * How your day-to-day reactions are making the most impact in your manifestation process

    * What steps you can take to rewire yourself energetically, and learn how to communicate with the universe

  • How to Connect with Your Life Purpose and Be Creatively Fulfilled

    Every waking moment of your life plays an important role in the path to your creative fulfillment. We tend to think that our life purpose is somewhere ‘over there’, beyond our reach that we must attain in order to be fulfilled.

    Just like a puzzle, each piece is important. And everything you’ve experienced up until now, whether positive or negative, has shaped you into the person you are today. Whether you are coming out of a relationship, in an unfulfilling job, or desiring more clarity, you are exactly where you are meant to be.

    Your life purpose isn’t a ‘one time’ dream that will make everything right in the world, and lead to ultimate happiness. It’s your remembrance of who you are, and the value your authentic self brings to the world.

    In this episode, we dive into:

    * How to start connecting with what lights you up

    * Why looking into your childhood gives hints as to what can bring you abundance as an adult

    * The concept of there always being a ‘dream beyond the dream’, and not getting attached to one idea or career path
