    😱 I Stopped Setting Goals and Started Chasing THIS Instead

    What if the secret to success is completely BACKWARD from what you’ve been taught your whole life? You’ve already broken free from the 9-to-5 grind, hit the road with your family, and built a business that supports your freedom.  But what ifhow you feel, notwhat you achieve, is the real key to success? In this solo episode, Kate is flipping the script on what we think it means to be successful.  Spoiler alert: It’s not about hitting six figures, growing your social media, or chasing the next big milestone.  Instead, it’s about embodying joy, confidence, and abundancebefore the goals are met.  Kate dives into her own story of burnout and goal-chasing madness, and how shifting her focus to feeling good first completely transformed her life—and her business! If you’re a high-achieving woman on the road, running your business while juggling family life, this episode is your reminder that success doesn’t have to be exhausting. It can feelgood. Key Takeaways 1️⃣ Why Chasing Goals Can Leave You Empty Hit big goals and still feel unfulfilled? It’s because you’re tying happiness to achievements! 2️⃣ Feel Good First, Watch Success Follow When you prioritize feeling good—whether through movement, mindfulness, or gratitude—everything else starts falling into place. 3️⃣ The Science Behind Feeling Good Your brain’s reticular activating system (RAS) literally filters the world to match what you focus on. Visualize success, and your mind will find ways to make it happen. 4️⃣ How to Shift from Hustle to Alignment Simple practices like morning check-ins, visualization, and gratitude can transform not just your mindset but your entire business. 5️⃣ Envisioning Your Million-Dollar Self What does the most confident, abundant, successful version of you look like? The more you embody her now, the faster she becomes your reality.Connect with Kate OnlineLet’s keep this conversation going!

    🎨 How Hobbies Fuel SUCCESS for the Unschooling Mompreneur with Cyrielle @unschoolingandthriving

    Ever wonder how to find time for your own passions while unschooling your children on the road?  In this episode, Kate chats with Cyrielle—mom to a neurodivergent daughter and founder of Unschooling and Thriving—about her journey from traditional teaching in Europe to traveling Canada and the U.S. in an RV while fully embracing self-directed learning. Cyrielle shares how creative hobbies, menstrual cycle awareness, and a deep trust in her child’s natural curiosity have shaped her approach to unschooling and motherhood. From watercolor paintings to belly dancing, get a glimpse of how nurturing your own soul can profoundly impact your family dynamics—and prevent burnout. If you’re an unschooling mom or simply a busy parent seeking more peace, creativity, and connection in everyday life, this conversation offers both inspiration and practical steps. Key Takeaways 1️⃣ Unschooling = Trust + Consent Rather than forcing a fixed curriculum, unschooling follows the child’s interests and timing, rooted in mutual respect and partnership. 2️⃣ Creativity for Soul Care Even 30 minutes a day of mindful, hands-on creativity can shift your mindset, reduce burnout, and refill your energy reserves. 3️⃣ Embracing the “Letting Go” Mindset Overcoming perfectionism—whether in art or unschooling—frees you (and your kids) to explore, fail, and ultimately thrive without fear. 4️⃣ Menstrual Cycle Awareness Tracking hormonal changes can help moms anticipate shifts in mood or energy, communicate needs to family, and schedule rest or lighter activities before burnout hits. 5️⃣ Building Community for Moms Cyrielle’s dream is to create a membership space (and eventually retreats or unschooling camps) so that women can connect, share doubts and wins, and support each other in this unique lifestyle.
