In this final episode of the Ready or Not mini-series, Katelyn challenges the belief that change has to be big—or hard—to be worth it. And even when life feels uncertain or chaotic and you might be inclined to stick with the status quo, change can actually make life easier. Too often, we settle for "good enough" without realizing how much better things could be. If you're feeling stuck or stretched thin, this episode is your reminder that ease might be just one small change away.

In this first episode of the Ready or Not mini-series, Katelyn tackles the question so many of us ask when we're considering change: Is it the right time? Whether you're thinking about a new job, tweaking a routine, or making time for something new, the timing rarely feels right. She explains why your brain resists change, even when it's for the better—and how waiting for the "perfect time" might keep you stuck, and why small steps matter—especially in busy seasons. Plus, hear how her backyard garden became a powerful reminder that starting now is almost always worth it.

This is your permission slip to do a little less. If you've ever felt like you're giving everything you have—and then some—it's time to explore a radical but freeing idea: What if your 70% effort is the equivalent of everyone else's 100%?

In this episode we're exploring what it means to show up, deliver, and lead as a high-achieving woman—especially when you're balancing work and motherhood. It isn't about lowering your standards or being out of integrity; it's about recognizing your value, impact, and capacity, even when you're not operating at full throttle.

You'll walk away with:

• A new way to think about effort vs. impact

• A practical mindset shift that could help you reclaim time and energy

• Validation that you are already doing enough—and more

If you're craving a healthier work-life balance and a career that supports your life (not the other way around), press play.
