StephUp Podcast

Hello my Lovelies!

Let's Talk about the Clearing the Creative with Katie Bjargvide

In this episode, I sat down with YouTuber and creative guide Katie Bjargvide, who helps people clear the clutter—both mentally and practically—to find clarity in their creative journeys. Whether it’s starting a podcast, building a YouTube channel, or reigniting a blog, Katie brings fresh, intuitive insight and hands-on support to help creators move forward. She has a gift for spotting the blindspots we can’t always see in ourselves—those limiting beliefs and invisible blocks that hold us back—and helps us shift our mindset with simple, powerful reframes.

Katie shared how creativity often feels like hitting a wall, especially when we're bogged down by pressure and unrealistic expectations. One of the moments that really stood out was when she helped me work through my own writing block using one of her custom oracle cards. The message? "Change your perspective." Whether it’s going outside, switching rooms, or just recording a quick video even when you don’t feel “ready,” Katie reminds us to give ourselves permission to create without perfection.

We also explored common blocks like the fear of not being good enough, people-pleasing, and thinking we need it all figured out before starting. Katie encourages us to meet those fears with compassion and to remember that connection—not perfection—is the heart of creativity. As she beautifully put it, “We need our creativity. We need our space to be people.”

"A huge block people have is thinking too much about critics or their own inner critic instead of just letting themselves do the thing they want to do." - Katie Bjargvide

Hello my Lovelies!

Let's Talk about the Healing Journey of Manifestation with Kristen Brown

In this episode, I had a powerful and honest conversation with Kristen Brown (Life Coach, Motivational Speaker, YouTuber and author of "The Recovering People-Pleaser") about the deeper side of manifestation—the part that often gets left out when people focus only on money or surface-level positivity. We talked about how manifestation is not just about visualizing your dream life or saying affirmations, but about healing the limiting beliefs and emotional blocks that keep us from truly feeling worthy.

We dove into the emotional guidance scale (*EDIT* —this scale comes from Abraham-Hicks, not the Hawkins model I originally mentioned), and how understanding our emotional state is key to aligning with what we want.

Kristen shared three KEY ASPECTS of Manifestation:

1) Trust in the abundance of the universe

2) Believing that we are worthy

3) Surrendering (let go of the hows, of the control)

She opened up about how calming the nervous system, being present, and letting go has brought so much clarity and success to her life—without forcing anything.

This conversation was full of insight, compassion, and hope. We talked about how to honour emotions without bypassing them, how healing is part of the manifesting journey, and how important it is to find what works for you rather than following rigid rules. I also shared two of my favorite quotes from Louise Hay that always ground me: “Everything is working out for my highest good,” and “God wants the best for you.” This episode is your reminder that you're not broken—and you absolutely have everything it takes to heal, to manifest, and to rise.

"You have everything it takes to heal and to manifest and to master your energy and to manifest the life and relationship of your dreams. Life is a healing journey. The manifestation journey is a healing journey." - Kristen Brown

Bonus Episode: Navigating Politics with Love & Courage with Catana Malinowski

Hello my Lovelies!

In this special bonus episode, I sat down with my dear friend, Catana Malinowski—artist life strategist, two-time international bestselling author, speaker, activist, and host of the podcast Champion for the People. We had a heartfelt and courageous conversation about navigating the political landscape and rising tension in our world today—with love, compassion, and clarity.

We explored how to stand up for what we believe in and protect democracy without losing our humanity. Catana shared powerful reflections, like the question she often poses: “What kind of country do you want, and who do you want to be?”We talked about media manipulation, the importance of using neutral language, and why emotional intelligence in leadership matters so deeply to me. This episode isn’t about sides—it’s about being curious, staying compassionate, and having real conversations that make space for healing and change.

I also shared a moment that moved me from the recent G7 Summit here in Canada, where Indigenous leader Steven Crowchild’s powerful words reminded me of the importance of visibility, integrity, and diplomacy in the face of deep emotion.

"When it came to that one individual, I almost didn't stay. I was filled with rage," Crowchild said. "I was going to go home because I didn't want to bring any negativity to my people. However, I did consult with close people and advisors, and based on feedback, I stayed, considering that visibility is key and diplomacy is important."

If you’re feeling overwhelmed or unsure of how to engage, let this be a gentle encouragement: pause, breathe, hug yourself. It's going to be okay. Find others who want to grow, connect, and do better. That’s how we begin to change the world—together.

In this episode of the StephUp Podcast, I am joined by motivational speaker and life coach, Doobee, for a powerful conversation on the journey back to self. We explore what it means to live a whole and authentic life by tuning into your own awareness, releasing fear, and letting go of the need to belong to a group. This is about real growth — not by chasing dreams, but by grounding yourself in the present and learning from every step you take.

“Journey back to self allows you to destroy fear. Fear does not exist when you live for real.” – Doobee

Hello my Lovelies!

Let's Talk about Living Unapologetically

"We have gotten to a place in our evolution where we don't need to just survive anymore. We can thrive and we can truly live and embrace and trust and have faith that we are life. Life is moving through us at any given moment. We can't control life so why not live it, fully freely, and unapologetically and let it mold us." - Sarah Grady

In this powerful and soul-stirring conversation of the StephUp Podcast, I sit down with Sarah Grady — a Liberator of the Language of Unapologetic Living, Sacred Disrupter, and Alchemist of Creative Devotion — to explore what it truly means to live unapologetically. Sarah shares how she’s moved from surviving to thriving, shedding roles like “the fixer” and stepping into a life of embodied truth. Together, we talk about the beauty and messiness of unlearning, the weight of self-imposed responsibility, and the freedom that comes from no longer apologizing for being your full, honest self.

This episode is a journey through shadow work, emotional release, and the power of self-accountability. Sarah reminds us that healing isn’t about avoiding pain — it’s about learning from our triggers, honouring our emotional responses, and reclaiming our power in the process. Through deep honesty and radical acceptance, we discover that we don’t have to shrink ourselves to make others comfortable. We can speak our truth, hold space for others, and still choose to walk away when needed — all while staying anchored in our own alignment.

You’ll leave this episode with a renewed sense of what it means to live with devotion, awareness, and compassion — not just for others, but for yourself. As Sarah says:

“We don’t need to try to win if we fight. No one is winning when we’re trying to fit into everyone’s boxes.” Tune in for a deeply liberating conversation that invites you to stop proving, start feeling, and fully be.

In episode 3 of the StephUp Podcast, I am joined by my friend/graphic designer/actor/spiritual & metaphysical guide and student of film, Timothy Waterman, aka Beau, for a heartfelt and reflective conversation about the journey of trusting the Universe and reconnecting with the wisdom of the soul. We explore how life, though often uncertain and mysterious, can become more grounded when we remember that our soul carries an inner knowing—a quiet but steady presence that walks with us through every season. When we tune into that deeper intelligence, we begin to recognize the vast possibilities available to us, beyond the limits of the thinking mind.

Beau shares about the subtle shift from relying solely on mental reasoning—which often carries fear, insecurity, and social programming—toward listening to what truly feels right within. This practice of trusting isn't always easy. It requires us to observe without judgment, ask honest questions about our choices, and gently reconnect with our authentic selves. Along the way, nervous system regulation, emotional clarity, and internal stability become vital tools as we unravel the layers of who we’ve been told to be.

As Beau beautifully puts it, "I can't tell anyone what to do, I can only share what works for me." This conversation is not about offering formulas or prescriptions, but about inviting listeners into a space of curiosity, self-reflection, and empowerment. Whether you’re questioning a relationship, a path, or simply what feels right for your next step, this episode offers gentle guidance for the ongoing journey of returning home to yourself.

"I have a relationship with existence as a whole and that's made it easier to step into trust even more." - Beau

Julie discusses those suggestions and interpretations we've received on what looks like success and beauty and happiness. These things can come from family, history, society etc.

Our power is in noticing and being aware and in whether we allow it to influence us or not. We get to have autonomy and choose. The awareness is the key. Just observe it.

"What are the suggestions we are responding to? Once we notice those things, we can start to try new things. This is where the reflection comes in, even small things can bring around huge change." - Julie Howlett

Thanks for watching and listening!

Hello my lovelies!

Sometimes it can be hard to let go. Actually most of the time it is. Maybe we were holding onto someone or an experience or an opportunity, thinking this was it. But then it wasn't.

And we can have such a mixture of feelings. It's all ok. There can be anger and sadness and frustration while also feeling peace, happiness, relief, etc.

I tend to cry when going through all of this. I was crying right before recording this episode.

And while we can be grateful for the experience and the lessons and grow through it all, we can also be grieving it. Feel all the feelings. Accept it. Allow it. And move through it. It's all ok. You are doing amazing. And leaving this old chapter makes way for the new. You've Got This!

It is the end of 2024 and beginning of 2025. Sometimes people talk about how much they've accomplished and/or what new things they will accomplish. That's great if it works for them. But for many people, that can seem so daunting to even think about. Maybe for you, just getting out of bed was all you could do. That's ok. You are worthy and important no matter what. You are worthy and important because you are YOU. You've Got This!

**This podcast contains adult conversation with sensitive matter.**

On today's episode, I welcome 2x international best-selling author, podcast host, award-winning professional artist, coach, speaker and activist, Catana L. Malinowski. Her latest book, "Why Are You Happy?" is a heartwarming story about a little blue whale named Happy who gets caught in some challenging situations but remembers to remain calm and through it all, he learns how to be more resilient.

Catana and I discuss blockages, the conscious and unconscious mindsets and energies like fear, judgment, perfectionism, etc. that can keep us stuck and prevent us from moving forward in life. Catana shares a lot of her own story and how she was able to keep going and break through many of her own blockages by becoming aware of what they were, being curious, open, and willing to challenge herself and adapt. Learning to love ourselves is key to overcoming those barriers and blockages in our lives.

"I learned to love myself which is probably the best gift ever because that also unloaded many blocks. I walked through the shadows. I went into those dark spaces of mine from the past that I was afraid to ever talk about and I gave it love and I gave it acceptance because it was about getting me to here; keeping me safe, protecting me. No judgment, no right or wrong. I was learning where I was seeing those as weaknesses and finding the strengths in there."

Catana mentioned our mutual friend, Katie, who helped her realize her creativity block with her art for the past few years.

Katie loves to help people clear their creative blocks.
