    There I am, in the simplest of things

    26/04/2026 | 22 mins.
    We find myself in the simple things. In movement, nature, laughter, in doing what we love.
    We lose ourselves in the noise of the mind, the pressure to be more, do more, become more and  feel disconnected from ourselves.
    But the truth is we’re not lost and it doesn’t take much to come back.
    This episode is a  reminder that you don’t need to go searching for yourself.
    You’re already here. Sometimes you just need to come back to what’s simple.

    When I stopped needing to be liked as a step-mum

    19/04/2026 | 29 mins.
    This one took a while to land. 
    The part that tried hard not to upset anyone, to do it right, to keep the peace, to earn my place was running rampant!
    And how exhausting that became.
    Somewhere along the way, I realised trying to be liked was costing me something far too precious ... myself.
    This is a conversation about self-abandonment in prettier clothes. About confusing being liked with being loving. About the shift from managing everyone else’s comfort to staying true to what feels right and good and true for you.
    If you’re a step-parent who has bent yourself to belong, bit your tongue, second-guessed your instincts or wondered why this role can feel so hard, this one is for you.

    Kat & Steve - If we had 24 hours left ...

    12/04/2026 | 37 mins.
    We asked a question ...“If we had 24 hours left on earth, what would we do?”
    A real, honest question to look at what actually matters when time is no longer on our side. Because questions like this have a way of showing you your life as it is, not the one you say you want, but the one you’re actually living.
    What would you drop?
    What would you lean into?
    Who would you call?
    How would you spend your time?
    And maybe the better question is, what’s stopping you from living a little more like that now?

    "I'm not ready yet!"

    05/04/2026 | 25 mins.
    You keep telling yourself you’re not ready. Not clear enough, not confident enough, not quite there yet.
    But if you’re honest, you already know.
    You know the conversation you’ve been avoiding. You know the decision you keep circling. You know what’s not working anymore.
    This episode is about that space. The in-between where you sit and think, and think and think some more whilst thinking you need more time, when really you’re avoiding what the next step is asking of you.
    It might disrupt things. It might feel uncomfortable. It might require you to show up in a way you haven’t before. So instead, you stay in your head. You go back and forth. You wait for a feeling that isn’t coming.
    In this episode I talk about the illusion of readiness, why clarity doesn’t come before action, and how we keep ourselves stuck by calling avoidance “not being ready.”
    If you’ve been circling something in your life, this one will land.

    Kat & Steve - To re-marry or not to re-marry

    29/03/2026 | 38 mins.
    I asked Steve a question - "were you scared to get married again, to be in a relationship again after your divorce?”
    When something significant ends, especially a marriage, it changes you. It shapes how you see love, commitment, risk, yourself and others.
    In this episode, Steve shares what it was actually like stepping back into a relationship after divorce. The hesitation. The awareness. The things he didn’t want to repeat. The work he needed to do on himself. 
    We talk about how he chose to do it differently the second time around.
    This isn’t a conversation about getting it perfect and 100% right. It’s about being honest about what you carry from the past, and what you consciously choose to do differently moving forward.
    If you’ve ever wondered if you can love again after something’s ended or how to not bring old patterns into something new, this one will land.
