    EP 34: "Embracing The Hard Work and Building Your To-Dream List"

    EP 34: "Embracing The Hard Work and Building Your To-Dream List"

    Hello Friend!
      Welcome back! It's just me and you again this week.  On today's episode, I'm talking about the "hard work" it takes before the "hard work".  And, I'm sharing a little bit about my "to-dream list" (think to-do list but way more exciting!  LOL!)
      Enjoy!
      XOXO,
      Katie

    EP 33: "What Does a Trip to the Grocery Store Have To Do With Our Dreams?"

     
    Hello Friend!
      Welcome back!  This week it’s just me and you and we’re talking about food stores!  LOL!  Kidding, kind of! 
      I had an a-ha moment at an ACME store as I was buying a carton of milk.  I know…crazy, right? LOL!
      Of course, I find a way to tie everything to our hopes and dreams and goals, and this was no different. 
      If any part of this episode resonates with you, I’d love to hear about it!  You can find me at katiecarrollcoaching on all the socials! 
     
      Until next week, I hope that you are thriving in this one, beautiful life that we have been gifted!
      XOXO,
      Katie

    EP 32: "How to Liberate Your Mind and Body Through Play With TJ Matton"

    EP 32: "How to Liberate Your Mind and Body Through Play With TJ Matton"

    Hello Friend,
      You are in for a real treat today as I had the wonderful opportunity to sit down and interview TJ Matton!  We recorded this episode in November of 2023, so don't mind us talking about the Fall weather as this is being released at the end of February 2024!  LOL!!
      TJ is a social worker, psychotherapist, and clinical coach focused on helping adults learn to liberate their mind and bodies through play!  Some of the topics that we cover are:  the vulnerability of play, attachment trauma, how women tend to outsource their joy, how to embody joy, how play is a "state" and not a "behavior", how play is actually a biological drive, how we're living in a play-deprived society, and so much more!!!  There is so much goodness in this episode, so sit back and enjoy the show!!
      You can find TJ here:

      Be well!!

    EP 31: "Change The Channel...Change Your Life!"

    EP 31: "Change The Channel...Change Your Life!"

    Hello sweet friend!
      Recently, I was listening to a podcast (shocker!  LOL!), and the woman who was speaking was talking about changing the channel in our minds when the negative talk comes in.  I absolutely loved this idea of having the CHOICE to decide what we want to allow into our minds and our hearts.  
      We all spend way too much time scrolling and falling down the rabbit hole into the comparison game, self-shaming and ultimately feeling anxious, depressed and overall defeated.  And, we live in this cycle of repeat and it's not doing anyone any good!
      It's time that we took back control (think taking back the TV controller from the one who controls it in your house!  LOL!), and CHANGE THE CHANNEL!  It could very well change your life!
     
       Be well,
       Katie

    EP 30: "Navigating The Power of Bold Dreams"

    DO YOUR DREAMS SCARE YOU?  JUST A LITTLE?  IF NOT, THEN THEY'RE NOT BIG ENOUGH!
    Ouch...this might hurt some ears, but the intention here is that YOU were meant for AMAZING things in this life.  When did we stop telling people what we wanted to be when we grew up?  When did we stop dreaming?  
    My friend, this is your loving reminder that YOU were meant to dream BIG!!!
    Are you ready?  If you need support, please let me know and I'd love to help you craft your big dreams!!!
    With so much love, as always,
     Katie

    EP 29: "Chapter 2 of 12"

    EP 29: "Chapter 2 of 12"

    Hello friend! 
      It's just me and you this week!  Happy February!  I read an inspirational quote on 02/01/24 that read "Chapter 2 of 12", and I'm kind of embarrassed to admit that I didn't get it at first...duh, Katie, February is the 2nd of 12 months!  LOL!  Gotta laugh at ourselves, right?  
      That inspirational quote prompted me to record today's episode.  Life is not a race, and hopefully we have the gift of time to see our dreams come to fruition!  
      I hope that you enjoy this episode, and as always, if you have a minute to leave a rating and review, I'd be so thankful!

Must listen!!

Katie has a way of getting to the meat and potatoes of your soul. I feel like I’m listening to my best friend and she just gets me. I find myself talking to the radio or laughing or crying. Such great podcasts!!!

Incredible & POWERFUL ❤️

Katie is an incredible soul and kindred spirit. Her podcast provides such a powerful message that empowers women and allows us to find our voice and allows us the permission to honor we are ENOUGH.

The work she does will have positive generational shifts -- this is becoming one of my top must listen to podcasts.

Thank you, Katie, for sharing your platform for vulnerability & strength for women.
