The penultimate episode before the wedding - and there is a lot to update you on. So I wanted to sit down, get real with you and share what's actually been going on behind the scenes = the good, the exciting and the hard.

In this episode I'm sharing:

• The big business update - closing Put Yourself First Ltd, going back to sole trader and rebranding under my married name (yes, I'm taking Adam's name and yes, the new name is pretty bloody cool)
• The platform migration - moving the entire Sisterhood to a brand new platform the month before the wedding because apparently I don't do things the easy way
• Wedding updates - the week off I've booked to decompress, write cards for our guests and just breathe before we get married on 20th June
• The mini moon - we're flying into Naples and heading to Praiano on the Amalfi Coast and I cannot wait
• A difficult family health update - we've been navigating anticipatory grief as a family for a few months now and I'm sharing the full context for the first time
• What this season has taught me about my relationship with Adam, the importance of communication and why I'm more certain than ever that I'm marrying the right person
• Why work has been my outlet and my anchor through all of it - and why that's okay

One more episode to come on Monday 15th before I sign off for the wedding - and then I'll be back in July, a married woman. Thank you for being here. It means more than you know. 💗

This one's for the girl who's lost her spark a little bit.

Maybe you've been going through a rough time lately. Maybe you're so busy and stressed that you've stopped really feeling like yourself. Maybe life has just been happening and you're ready to come back to yourself - back to your joy, your playfulness, your energy, your good vibes.

In this episode I'm getting really honest about what's going on in my own life right now and why this work is so personal for me at the moment. I'm also sharing why I think so many women are walking around feeling flat, disconnected and like they've lost that spark - and what it actually takes to get her back.

In this episode we talk about:

• What "losing your spark" actually means and why it happens to so many high-functioning women
• The awareness trap - knowing you need to change but feeling stuck in the gap between knowing and actually doing
• The 47 tabs metaphor and the mental load that is quietly draining you
• Why you're not going to wait your way into feeling better (and what to do instead)
• Why no one is coming to save you - and why that is actually the most empowering thing I can tell you
• The before and after from the Lover Girl Era embodiment call and what one hour can actually do
• How to join us inside The Sisterhood for Lover Girl Era this summer

Do you ever feel like your brain never fully switches off?

You sit down to relax and suddenly you’re mentally replaying a work meeting, remembering you need to order your friend’s birthday gift, renew your passport, sort the holiday admin, clean the kitchen, reply to messages, organise plans, and somehow still be present, sexy, connected, calm and emotionally available for everyone around you 🤣

In this week’s episode, we’re talking about the REAL reason so many women feel disconnected from themselves lately.

Not because you’re lazy.
Not because you’re “bad at self-care”.
Not because there’s something wrong with your relationship.

But because the mental load women carry is HUGE.

And over time, constantly holding everything together can quietly disconnect you from:
• your joy
• your softness
• your libido
• your confidence
• your nervous system
• your spark

Inside this episode, we dive into:
💗 what the mental load actually is (and why it’s deeper than a to-do list)
💗 how women are socialised into over-functioning and hyper-independence
💗 why “just ask for help” often doesn’t feel that simple
💗 how survival mode impacts your relationship, libido, confidence and energy
💗 the hidden cost of constantly being “the capable one”
💗 why spaciousness is the medicine modern women need more of

And if this episode really hits home for you, I’d absolutely love to invite you inside Lover Girl Era 💗

A free feminine embodiment experience designed to help you:
• regulate your nervous system
• release stress and tension
• reconnect to yourself
• feel more playful, confident and connected again
• lighten the mental load and stop carrying everything alone

If you've ever been told you're "stuck in your masculine energy" - or quietly wondered it yourself — this episode is for you.

There's a loud conversation happening right now about masculine and feminine energy. And a lot of it is reducing ambitious, driven, hardworking women to a label that doesn't serve them.

In this episode I'm sharing why I've stopped telling women they're stuck in their masculine energy - and what I think is actually going on underneath the overfunctioning, the burnout, and the constant cycle of doing it all.

Because here's the thing. The controlling, the over-organising, the struggle to switch off - those behaviours have a root. They're symptoms. And until we look at what's underneath, we're just mowing the lawn.

We're covering:

• Why "you're in your masculine energy" is being used as a diagnostic tool when it's actually a symptom
• What's really underneath the patterns that get labelled too masculine
• Why ambitious, driven women are not the problem
• What feminine energy actually looks like in its full expression - wildness, rage, softness, power, all of it
• Why only YOU get to define what feminine energy means for you

This isn't about being softer, more submissive, or less of who you are. It's about understanding yourself at a deeper level - and honouring every part of what it means to be a woman.

If you've been holding something back from your partner - hoping it'll resolve itself, telling yourself you're overthinking it, or convincing yourself it's not that big a deal - this episode is for you.

In this episode I'm talking about avoidance. Not just why it feels easier in the moment, but what it's actually costing you and your relationship over time.

In this episode we cover:

• Why avoidance isn't neutral - it's slowly poisoning your relationship
• The moment avoidance becomes a red flag (and why you might be the one waving it)
• The feminine energy myth that keeps women stuck and silent
• Why "I've already told him" is often not the full story
• What's really underneath the avoidance - and what to do about it

If you're ready to stop carrying it all silently and start feeling actually supported in your relationship, this one is for you.

Why do some women seem to have it all together - consistent, disciplined, showing up for themselves - while you're stuck in that exhausting all-or-nothing cycle?

I used to wonder the same thing. In my 20s, I was the ultimate pendulum swinger - smashing my goals one week, completely off the wagon the next. And I realised it wasn't about what I was doing wrong. It was about who was in the driver's seat.

In this episode, I'm breaking down the real reason you struggle with consistency, discipline, and self-sabotage - and it has nothing to do with willpower or motivation.

I'm talking about the emotionally immature part of you that's secretly running the show, why I was never going to fix this with a productivity hack, and what it actually looks like to step into your Queen energy and lead your own life.

In this episode:

• Why the all-or-nothing cycle isn't a discipline problem - it's an identity problem
• The maiden, mother, and queen archetypes and what they have to do with your goals
• How unconscious rebellion keeps you stuck (even when you know what to do)
• What it means to parent your inner child rather than let her run the show
• Why embodiment work creates the lasting change that tips and tactics never will

Have you ever felt resentful in your relationship but couldn't fully explain why? Felt proud of your career but quietly suffocated at the same time? Found yourself wondering what you actually want — versus what you've been told to want?

You're not having a breakdown. You're having a rebellion.

In this episode, Kat unpacks the Good Girl Rebellion — what's driving it, what's really underneath the resentment and frustration so many women are feeling right now, and the liberating truth that you get to write an entirely new template for your life, your relationship, your career, and your future.

In this episode:

• Why high-achieving women are feeling resentful in their relationships — even when their partner is doing nothing wrong
• The inherited template driving ancestral anger and how it shows up in modern relationships
• Why the "independent woman armour" can secretly keep you from receiving the love and support you actually crave
• What grief has to do with the good girl rebellion
• The two desires ambitious women carry that the world keeps telling them can't coexist — and why they're wrong
• Why living your new template gives other women permission to do the same
• The liberating truth: you get to decide all of it

If you struggle to trust men in relationships, feel emotionally guarded, or find yourself over-functioning in love… this episode will hit. For years, I thought I was just independent.
Self-sufficient. Capable. But the truth? I didn’t fully trust men.

Even in a healthy, long-term relationship… I was still holding control, struggling to receive, and subconsciously protecting myself from being let down.

And that impacted everything.
My nervous system.My intimacy.My ability to feel truly safe and supported.

In this episode, I’m sharing a part of my personal story I’ve never opened up about before… and the deeper relationship patterns that were quietly running the show.

We’re talking about emotional safety, feminine energy in relationships, over-functioning, and what it actually takes to trust your partner without losing yourself.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• Why you might struggle to trust men, even in a good relationship• How emotional guarding and control show up in subtle ways• The link between over-functioning and feminine energy burnout• Why you don’t feel fully safe to relax, receive, or be supported• How this impacts intimacy, connection, and communication• The inner work that helps you feel safe in love again• How to shift from self-protection into softness, trust, and emotional safety

Most women think burnout at work and disconnection in their relationship are two separate problems.

They’re not.

In this episode, I’m breaking down the hidden pattern I see in so many high-achieving women that’s quietly impacting both.

If you feel like you’re always “on”, constantly thinking, organising, managing… and then wondering why you can’t fully relax, receive, or feel deeply connected in your relationship, this is for you.

We’re talking about over-functioning.

The pattern of being the one who handles everything, holds everything together, and quietly carries more than your fair share… at work, in your relationship, and in life.

And the truth is, it’s probably the very thing that’s made you successful.

But it’s also the thing that’s exhausting you.

Inside this episode, I share:

• What over-functioning actually is (and how to spot it in your life)

• Why this pattern shows up in both your work and your relationship

• How over-functioning leads to burnout, resentment, and disconnection

• The subtle ways you might be enabling others to under-function (without realising)

• Why nothing is “wrong” with you… and how to start shifting this

This isn’t about doing less or lowering your standards.

It’s about learning how to switch out of “handle everything” mode… so you can feel supported, connected, and actually enjoy the life you’ve built.

Want support with this?

I’m currently inviting 3 women into a 12-week 1:1 coaching experience.

This is for high-achieving women who are ready to:

• stop over-functioning and carrying everything alone

• feel more supported in their life and relationship

• reconnect to their body, softness, and feminine energy

• shift relationship dynamics without forcing or over-managing
