In this episode of Heal with Kat, Kat sits down with Liam Naden—a man whose life story reminds us of the profound wisdom available in surrender.
Together, we journey through Liam’s remarkable transformation: from living the high life as a millionaire to finding himself homeless, and ultimately discovering peace and fulfillment as a nomad sailing the seas on a catamaran for over 15 years.In this conversation we discover what happens when we release control, dissolve the stories that bind us, and return to our essential nature—one rooted not in survival, but in thriving.
Liam helps us explore the inner workings of the brain, revealing how we can move from the fear-based survival brain into the thriving brain, where flow, joy, and clarity reside.We reflect on how language—though powerful—can fragment us from ourselves and each other, creating the illusion of separation.
This illusion, as Liam shares, is often at the heart of our inner suffering. By embracing the unknown and releasing the narratives of "not enough," we can experience life in its most natural and whole state.
