In this heartfelt episode, Kate sits down with Kayla Mathieu of Wandering Past Limits to explore how your story—yes, even the messy parts—can become the foundation for a meaningful personal brand.
Kayla’s journey spans from high-stress RN and circus arts coach (seriously!) to full-time RV traveler, homeschooling mom, and wellness guide. But it didn’t start with a polished mission statement—it started with burnout, a family crisis, and a deep desire to live differently.
After her neurodivergent son was unjustly charged with a felony at age 11 (WHAT?!), Kayla and her husband left everything behind to build a life that actually worked for their family. That choice led to RV life, a dramatic shift in mental health, and ultimately the brand Kayla runs today—helping others find healing through travel, nature, and alignment.
If you’re sitting on life experience and wondering how to use it, this conversation is the permission slip you didn’t know you needed.
