Safety isn’t something the world gives you—it’s something you build inside your own body.
In this episode, Kate explores what safety means—and why we’ve been taught to search for it everywhere except inside ourselves.
Through her own story of chaos, control, and hurricanes, she reveals the deeper truth: safety isn’t the absence of danger, it’s the presence of trust—trust in your body, your breath, and your ability to meet the moment.
If you’ve ever felt like your peace depends on keeping everyone else calm, this one will feel like a deep exhale.
Because if there’s ever a time we lose our rhythm—and our sense of safety—it’s during the holidays.
Holiday Rewired is Kate’s 3-part live experience for women who are ready to stay grounded, present, and peaceful this season—no matter what’s swirling around them.
You’ll get three live classes (with replays), daily support, and simple science-backed nervous-system tools and energy practices to help you actually enjoy the season again.
Doors close Friday, November 14th!

In this episode, Kate unearths the real origins of Samhain — the ancient Celtic festival that gave birth to Halloween — and explores how this season of darkness was never meant to be spooky. It was sacred. A time to honor endings, commune with mystery, and meet the parts of ourselves we’ve buried.
From the bonfires of ancient Ireland to the marigolds of Día de los Muertos, we trace how cultures around the world have danced with death, shadow, and renewal. And we ask the deeper question:
What if this season isn’t about fearing the dark… but becoming friends with it?
You’ll hear stories of ancient rituals (and one very modern Tampa pirate festival), how repression fuels the shadow we’re trying to avoid, and why integration — not denial — is the real alchemy of transformation.
Inside this conversation:
Because the veil that’s truly thinning isn’t just between the living and the dead — it’s between you and the parts of yourself you’ve been afraid to meet.
If this episode flipped the script on Halloween and helped you see this season as something sacred and alive — you’ll love Holiday Rewired.
It’s my three-part live experience and intimate, revolutionary community for women who are ready to do the holidays their way.

Hormones, Safety & Enoughness in Midlife
What does it really mean to have enough — and to be enough?
In this deeply human episode, Kate Garland unpacks the biology and the soul of enoughness — how our hormones, brain chemistry, and nervous system shape our sense of satisfaction, safety, and self-worth, especially in midlife.
You’ll learn why so many women feel restless or “flat” in their 40s and 50s even when life looks full on paper — and how the quiet decline of estrogen, dopamine, serotonin, and oxytocin changes the way we experience joy, motivation, and connection.
This is science through the lens of soul work: equal parts biology, story, and nervous-system wisdom.
Because enough isn’t a number or an affirmation —
it’s a state your body learns to regulate into.

If “just take a deep breath” has ever made you feel worse instead of better… this episode will explain exactly why.
Because what if the world’s oldest wellness advice — from yoga studios to therapy offices — has it backward?
We’ve been told to inhale more, fill up, expand, “breathe in the light.”
But calm doesn’t come from taking in more air — it comes from learning to breathe less, exhale better, and tolerate more CO₂.
In this bold, myth-busting conversation, Kate Garland — midlife reinvention coach, intuitive guide, and lifelong yoga therapist — unpacks the real science and spirituality of the breath: how carbon dioxide (yes, the thing we were taught to fear) is actually the mineral of your respiration — the key that lets oxygen unlock and nourish your cells.
You’ll learn why:
This is yoga meets neuroscience.
Pranayama meets parasympathetic.
Patrick meets the Priestess.
And once you hear it, you’ll never “just take a deep breath” again.

We’ve all tried them — affirmations.
“I am abundant.” “I am radiant.” “I am calm.”
But what happens when those words just… don’t land? When your brain (and your body) roll their eyes and whisper, “yeah, right.”
In this episode, Kate Garland — midlife reinvention coach, intuitive guide, and nervous system mentor — cracks open the science and soul behind why traditional affirmations often fail and introduces you to their powerful upgrade: afformations.
Afformations (coined by Noah St. John) flip the script — turning your statements into questions that work with your brain and body, not against them. The result? Less resistance, more curiosity, and a nervous system that finally says yes.

🔥 Midlife Reinvention: Nervous System Healing, Energy Balance, Intuition & Sovereignty
Midlife isn’t decline — it’s initiation.
Yet most women are caught between two broken narratives: the cultural silence that tells us to disappear gracefully… or the biohacking circus that promises to trick your body into acting twenty-five again. Both are cages. Both are lies.
The truth? Your body isn’t the problem — it’s the portal. Midlife is a full-on evolutionary upgrade: your hormones, brain, priorities, and intuition are reorganizing to crown you in sovereignty. But fire always comes before the crown — and without the right framework, that fire can feel like chaos.
That’s why I created The Second Firing Transformation — a 3-month sacred container that blends 3D science-backed practices (comfort + vitality right now) with 5D energetic practices (the deep internal shifts that rewire your outer life).
This is where the mystical meets the practical, where nervous system healing fuses with intuition, and where midlife reinvention stops being theory and becomes lived reality.
👉 Doors are open now — but close Friday.
Spots are intentionally limited, because this is high-touch, founding-cohort work.
If you’re done with silence and done with hacks, this is your invitation: step into the fire, claim your crown, and join us today.

Midlife isn’t a breakdown—it’s initiation.
In this playful, soul-steadying episode, Kate Garland explores how fire shows up as alchemy in our 40s and 50s:
the kiln that strengthens,
the forest fire that clears what’s choking you,
the campfire of belonging,
the kitchen fire that nourishes, and more.

What happens when the strategies that once carried you through life suddenly stop working?
The late nights you used to power through now wreck your sleep.
The workouts that once fueled you now leave your joints aching.
The people-pleasing that kept things smooth suddenly feels unbearable.
From the outside, it looks like you’re falling apart — body, mind, and soul coming undone. But what if it’s not collapse at all?
What if midlife isn’t a breakdown, but an initiation — an upgrade into the most sovereign version of you?
In this episode, Kate Garland explores the physical, neurological, and emotional shifts of midlife through both science and myth:
Midlife isn’t a malfunction. It’s the forge, the fire, the second firing.

My gift to you -- simply click here.
So many women in their 40s, 50s, and 60s are living through the same reality — sleepless nights, shifting moods, bodies that don’t feel familiar anymore — and yet we rarely talk about it. Midlife has become one of the most silenced chapters of a woman’s life.
In this episode of Radically You, Kate Garland explores why that silence exists, how it isolates us, and what it costs when we keep pretending everything is fine. From cultural conditioning that teaches us not to “complain,” to the shame woven into women’s bodies from menarche onward, Kate shares both personal stories and neuroscience on why hiding doesn’t heal — and why speaking our truth sets us free.
You’ll learn:
Because ending the silence isn’t just relief — it’s liberation.

What if your intuition wasn’t something mystical “out there”… but a built-in guidance system you’ve had all along?
In this episode, we’re peeling back the layers on how intuition actually speaks to you. Not in vague signs or fluffy platitudes, but through clear, recognizable channels that have been with you since childhood. Somewhere along the way, most of us were taught to shut them down—and with that, we lost access to a huge part of our power.
This is your invitation to remember. To reconnect with the ways your intuition has always been speaking, whether through flashes of insight, gut-level knowing, or that sense of “I just knew.”
We’ll talk about:
By the end, you’ll see that intuition isn’t rare or reserved for “gifted” people. It’s your birthright. And the more you trust it, the more alive, clear, and grounded you feel.

What if the fastest path to the life you want isn’t more hustle, strategy, or self-improvement… but simply learning how to feel good?
In this episode, Kate Garland — midlife reinvention coach and intuitive guide — breaks down the neuroscience and energetics of attraction. You’ll discover:
When your body is regulated, your energy field coherent, and your heart open, the world doesn’t just feel different — it actually responds differently.

You’re not alone — and it’s not because you’re lazy, broken, or “too old to change.”

🌀 What if your entire life has been preparing you for this fire?
Before we can talk about midlife transformation, we have to honor the form that came before it.
In Part Two of The Second Firing series, Kate Garland, Somatic Coach & Stress Recovery Specialist, traces the archetypal arc of a woman’s early life—from birth to Saturn Return—through the ancient metaphor of pottery.
This is not a linear checklist of life stages. It’s a soulful, embodied map that reveals how each chapter—no matter how messy—has been shaping you.
💫 This episode is a reframe, a remembrance, and a reckoning.
We move into the fire itself:
From the slow, clarifying heat of your late 30s…
To the colorful chaos of perimenopause…
To the all-consuming transformation of the second fire.
The pressure rises. The cracks show.
But so does the shine.

Not all stress is bad—but most of us are drowning in the wrong kind.
In this powerful episode, Kate breaks down the difference between good stress (eustress), chronic stress, and anxiety, and why they’re not all created equal. You’ll learn how eustress actually expands your capacity, what happens when the stress cycle doesn’t complete, and how anxiety becomes a full-body SOS—not a mental failing.
If you’ve been living in a constant state of urgency, feeling like you can’t calm down even when nothing’s “wrong,” this episode is your permission slip to do it differently.

What if the worst thing you could say to someone in a meltdown is “calm down”?

In this episode, we unpack the neuroscience behind emotional overwhelm and why logic fails when your nervous system is under threat.
You’ll learn how hearing "calm down" unravels us even further in difficult moments, and what actually helps in moments of intensity— and how to reclaim your emotional power without silencing yourself.

What if freedom isn’t something given or earned—but something practiced?
In this episode, Kate explores the kind of freedom that doesn’t come from a government, paycheck, or relationship. It's the inner sovereignty that arises when you stop outsourcing your peace and start choosing how you respond—especially when life feels out of control.
Whether you're feeling burned out, stuck in overfunctioning, or just bone-tired of trying to keep everyone happy, this episode will remind you that true freedom begins inside your own nervous system. We’ll explore the connection between safety and sovereignty, how Polyvagal Theory unlocks access to choice, and what it really means to reclaim your power—one breath at a time.

The truth about overfunctioning, emotional labor, and how to finally come back to yourself.
From the outside, everything looks fine.
You’re doing all the right things—showing up, staying ahead, holding it all together.
But inside? You’re exhausted.
Not just physically, but energetically. Emotionally. Soulfully.
In this potent episode, Kate explores a hidden pattern that drains so many women: overfunctioning—the silent epidemic of doing too much, for too long, for too many. Drawing inspiration from Too Much: Make Space for the Rested, Connected, and Confident You by therapist and boundary expert Terri Cole, Kate shares real-life stories, somatic truths, and a gentle but honest wake-up call:
You’re not broken. But you are carrying what isn’t yours.

Each option is simple, flexible, and designed to meet you where you are—without overwhelming your already-full plate.
