  2. Healing Lives in the Body

    Healing Lives in the Body

    We often turn to therapy when we feel unsettled—and therapy is valuable. But talking can only take us so far. The truth is, our past experiences live in our body, not just our mind.  In this solo episode, Catherine shares a personal moment that revealed just how deeply our past lives in the body. While therapy offers insight, the real shift happens when we turn inward, breathe, and allow long-held emotions to release. She explores: • Why true healing is body-based • How childhood wounds live in our nervous system • What happens when we finally let ourselves feel • Somatic practices that help us soften and let go This episode is an invitation to pause, breathe, and reconnect with the steady, quiet life within you. Healing begins in the body—and it's available right now.

    Awakening through Trauma with Dr. John King

    At 45 years old, Dr. John King's life cracked open when suppressed memories of being trafficked as a child resurfaced - sending him into a profound personal reckoning. Instead of running from the pain, John chose to face it head-on. What followed was a long, courageous journey of healing, recovery, and awakening. In this powerful conversation, John shares how trauma doesn't have to define who you become. As he says, "I was never a victim. I have always been an overcomer. If I can make it, so can you." He speaks openly about how the scars we carry - especially the ones marked by shame - can become symbols of honor and strength. John brings a lifetime of hard-earned wisdom. He is an author, poet, activist, and founder of the Give Them a Voice Foundation, which he launched in 2015 to advocate for survivors of abuse, trafficking, and PTSD. His poetry collection, No Working Title, offers a raw, evolving portrait of a life reclaimed. This episode is an invitation into truth, courage, and the profound possibility of rebuilding a life - even after unthinkable harm. It's a testament to the resilience of the human spirit.

  5. Why Your Childhood Nudges Still Matter

    Why Your Childhood Nudges Still Matter

    In this episode, I share a full-circle moment that unfolded while helping my 97-year-old mother transition into a group home. Among her things, I discovered a cassette tape labeled "Catherine's Senior Assembly Speech." At 18, I stood in front of my school speaking about not taking life for granted—wisdom born from facing dying at age 11. Listening back decades later, three messages still ring true: Life is here and now. Don't take this moment for granted. Being alive is a gift. These early truths shaped my path—even after a long detour through the corporate world—and eventually led me back to theology, chaplaincy, and the work I do today. In this episode, I invite you to pause and turn inward: What is stirring inside you? What is your soul whispering? Can you feel the preciousness of this moment? We are all being guided. The real question is: How do you experience that guidance within yourself?

    How Human Connection Reshapes our Biology with Dr. Ben Rein

    l loved this conversation with Ben Rein - Ben Rein, PhD is an award-winning neuroscientist, Adjunct Lecturer at Stanford University, Clinical Assistant Professor at SUNNEY Buffalo, and Chief Science Officer of the Mind Science Foundation.

Ben's research shows that we can form new, positive neural pathways throughout our lives. Human connection doesn't just feel good - it reshapes our biology and helps us live longer.
