Ever expected change to feel exciting and empowering—only to find yourself deep in anxiety, overthinking, and overwhelm the minute you take a step forward?
In this episode, we’re getting real about what change actually feels like. Not the Instagram version. The real, messy, chaotic one that brings up old wounds, fear, resistance, and allll the spiraling thoughts.
Kathleen shares personal stories from her recent leap into a new job and starting her counselling studies, and how—even though these were things she wanted—she was smacked in the face with emotional chaos she didn’t expect. We unpack why that happens, how to support yourself through it, and why feeling lost or overwhelmed doesn’t mean you’ve made the wrong decision.
You’ll learn:
Why our brains hate change (and how to stop letting that hold you back)
How to stop reading resistance as a “sign” to quit
What it really means to build a new way of being (and why it’s so damn hard)
Kathleen’s top 3 tips for grounding yourself in the chaos
This one’s for you if:→ You're trying to make changes in your life but it feels harder than it "should"→ You're beating yourself up for not having it all figured out→ You want permission to embrace the mess, feel your fear, and go for it anyway
