    96. Redefining Love Beyond "The One" w/ Merideth Thompson

    What if your body already knows the truth about your relationship - and your mind is just catching up? In this conversation, Cat sits down with Merideth Thompson, PhD, founder of Partner Lab, to reorient love away from the fairytale of “the one” and toward relationships as portals for growth, clarity, and self-trust. Merideth is a psychological researcher and executive coach who helps people use data-driven insights alongside somatic wisdom to make empowered choices - whether that means strengthening a relationship or ending it with care. Together, they explore the difference between intuition vs. fear (and how doubt can masquerade as inner knowing), why conflict patterns matter more than “good communication,” how emotional abuse can impact us even without visible marks, and why love alone isn’t always enough for longevity. They also talk about choosing yourself inside partnership — building independence, interdependence, and devotion without losing your identity. This episode is for anyone navigating a relationship crossroads, healing from the myth of “happily ever after,” or learning how to choose with clarity instead of urgency. In this episode: Data as “regret insurance”Intuition vs fear vs doubtRelationships as portals, not destinationsIndependence evenings + healthy interdependenceWhy resentment is so corrosiveSelf-love as the foundation that lastsConnect with Merideth + Partner Lab: Website: www.mypartnerlab.co Follow my journey on Instagram Interested in being a guest on the podcast?

    95. Becoming Sovereign: Grief & the Feminine Path of Healing

    What does it really mean to be a sovereign woman? In this episode, Cat and Veronique Ory explore the lived journey of sovereignty through grief, surrender, and becoming.  They reflect on how our lineage shapes who we are, how grief can crack us open in ways nothing else can, and how surrender isn’t giving up -- it’s learning to loosen control and trust what’s unfolding. This conversation is honest, tender, and deeply embodied -- a reminder that sovereignty isn’t something we achieve, but something we remember through experience.

    94. Inside Our Marriage: What Conscious Partnership Really Looks Like

    In this heart-opening episode, I sit down with my husband, Nathan, for an honest and intimate conversation about conscious love—what it really looks like behind the scenes, how they navigate triggers, and the daily practices that keep their relationship rooted in connection instead of reactivity. Together, we unpack our evolving definition of conscious partnership, why emotional responsibility matters, how we repair after moments of rupture, and the mindset shifts that have brought more harmony, depth, and presence into our marriage. If you’re craving a relationship that feels supportive, stable, and spiritually alive, this episode offers practical insights, tender reflections, and a kind of honest dialogue that invites you to explore your own patterns and possibilities in love. And keep your ears open for the launch of Relate With Cat + Nate. Meet Nate Follow my journey on Instagram Interested in being a guest on the podcast? Send me a DM :)

    93. Not Just Manifesting—Materializing: Turning Vision into Reality w/ Devon Kerns

    What if the most powerful thing you could do for the world wasn’t to push harder, but to become still? In this episode, Cat sits down with Devon Kerns — a founder, conscious leadership guide, and “builder of the new world” — to explore how stillness, rooting into the body, and lightening up can radically transform the way we create, lead, and relate to money, technology, and each other. Devon shares how his quote “the stillest waters bring the greatest ripples” became the anchor of his work, and together they move through a wide-ranging conversation on the root chakra and safety, conscious evolution, community vs. tribe, money as an expression of value, and the emerging relationship between AI and human potential. This is a grounded, expansive dialogue for anyone walking the path of spiritual growth and entrepreneurship. In this episode, we explore: Why stillness creates a deeper ripple than constant effortingHow rooting into the body (and the root chakra) changes the way we experience chaosThe shift from competition and “tribe” into true community and co-creationThe difference between manifestation and full materialization (and why so many creators stop halfway)Money as a frequency of value and what happens when we under-value our workHow AI, quantum tech, and conscious evolution might converge to build a new paradigmChoosing idealism and love over fear in a world wired for survivalDevon has spent 25+ years founding and scaling companies across wellness, tech, media, and sustainable development, while dedicating over 11,000 hours to coaching and consulting leaders, executives, and change-makers. Today, he sits on boards and inside movements devoted to healing people, land, and economies — not waiting for the future, but actively building it. Tune in for a conversation that invites you to be both the still lake and the pebble, and to remember that your inner state is the true source of your ripples.

    92. Bridging Faith and Frequency: Consciousness Beyond Religion w/ David Youngren

    What if Jesus’ core teachings, neuroscience, and quantum physics are pointing to the same truth? Today, I sat down with David Youngren -  a spiritual philosopher, author, and meditation teacher whose work bridges the worlds of science and mysticism—to explore how contemplative practice, inner stillness, and neuroplasticity converge with a more inclusive, heart-centered reading of ancient wisdom. David has spoken to over a million people worldwide and is the author of Life Ascending: Unlocking Mental Wellbeing Through Timeless Wisdom and New Science—a book that reveals how timeless spiritual teachings and cutting-edge research in neuroscience and quantum physics illuminate the same path to freedom and inner peace. You’ll hear: Religion vs. spirituality: why presence (not dogma) actually transformsMeditation, the brain, and real-world mental well-beingThe “I Am” as consciousness beyond space, time, and matterEgo as a useful servant—not the driverReframing “truth” as the inner light arising in the present momentIf you’ve wrestled with the word “God,” are untangling religious conditioning, or crave a bridge between faith, science, and lived spirituality, this conversation will feel like a breath of relief—and a practical path back to presence.

    91. The Two Gaps Keeping You Stuck (Even If You’re “Doing the Work”) w/ Dr. Kelly Waggoner

    So many of us understand our patterns, yet nothing changes. In this powerful episode, clinical psychologist and integrative wellness expert Dr. Kelly Waggoner maps the two core gaps in modern healing: Somatic gap: how to regulate your nervous system (and although it might not sound sexy, it’s the bedrock of real change), expand your window of tolerance, and reshape the “container” so insight doesn’t leak out.Spiritual gap: how to reconnect with your soul-self without outsourcing your authority and dissolve the illusion of separation so life feels alive again.We cover: breath as the most portable tool, micro check-ins, the STOP practice, hyper vs. hypo states, people-pleasing (“fawn”) as a survival strategy, and why peak experiences—psychedelic or otherwise—only transform us when we integrate them into daily life. You’ll learn Early signs of dysregulation—and how to course-correct fastPractical ways to rebuild discernment so decisions come from presenceA simple path to weave mind, body, and spirit into everyday healingGuest Dr. Kelly Waggoner is a clinical psychologist, integrative wellness expert, and co-founder of Wellspring 88.

    89. From People-Pleasing to Peace: The Real Self-Love Journey w/ Julie Heaton

    Self-love has become a buzzword in the spiritual world — often watered down to bubble baths and positive affirmations. But real self-love? It’s the foundation of transformation. In this week’s episode of Wild Souls, Cat sits down with writer and guide Julie Heaton to explore the road from self-loathing to self-loving — and what it actually looks like to come home to yourself. Together they unpack the guilt of being still in a world that glorifies productivity, the shadow beneath perfectionism and people-pleasing, and the deeper meaning of abundance when you’re no longer trying to fill a void. They talk about what it means to unravel stories that were never yours, forgive the versions of you that were built for survival, and finally remember your wholeness. We cover: How self-love became diluted — and what it truly means in practiceThe guilt of stopping the productivity treadmillUnraveling stories and selves that were never yoursPerfectionism & people-pleasing as protectionThe difference between authentic abundance and over-consumptionMeditation as a first step toward inner peace and self-trustListen if: you’ve ever thought “there’s got to be more than this” — and you’re ready to find it, not by fixing yourself, but by finally loving yourself.
