  • What a delightful conversation.

    Review Season 1, Episode 152 with Wendy Valentine.

    Katie and Wendy have an easy chemistry that made me feel like I was sitting at the kitchen table with two wise friends. I found myself laughing out loud more than once.

    The discussion about choosing "scary freedom" over familiar misery really landed for me. In 2023, at age 73, I was recruited as an actor and decided to go for it. That one decision opened a completely unexpected chapter in my life and reminded me that reinvention can happen at an... more

    As a Nurse and a survivor of childhood trauma your podcast has allowed me to explore, name, and heal past and present trauma. You also remind me how to laugh and play, which is the best medicine. Thank you.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

116: Reclaiming Identity, Rest & Purpose with Rachel Brooks
Q: How can someone reconcile responsibilities they don't love with a life aligned to purpose?
The guests suggest prioritizing, chunking to-do lists, and focusing on what must be done now while gradually incorporating rest and inner work to build sustainable alignment.
116: Reclaiming Identity, Rest & Purpose with Rachel Brooks
Q: Tell us about your journey to understanding who you are beyond your roles.
Rachel describes moving beyond her identities as a perfectionist and public figure by facing personal loss, asking core questions about selfhood, and choosing to align actions with an intrinsic sense of purpose rather than external expectations.
E 113 Healing Trapped Emotions with the Emotion Code: How Energy Work Can Transform You
Q: So can you explain to the audience what The Emotion Code is and how it works?
The Emotion Code is a healing technique that removes trapped emotions by accessing the subconscious. It helps release energetic blockages that contribute to emotional and physical issues, often without requiring someone to relive traumatic events, and it can be performed remotely with consent.
118: How Cancer and Divorce Led One Women To Her Life’s Purpose
Q: How did you begin to find your purpose after leaving corporate work?
She describes a long internal journey, following intuition, and eventually starting with a course and coaching that aligned with her gifts, which then grew into a global business and her book.
124: The Gifts of Courage
Q: So how do you define courage, and what forms does it take besides grand gestures?
Courage is knowing you are stronger inside than you think and that you can recover from difficult experiences; it includes small, authentic acts like stepping into who you truly are and pursuing new challenges, not just life-or-death bravery.
