Plenty with Kate Northrup

What if the reason your message isn’t landing - or your sales feel harder than they should - isn’t your strategy… but the sound of your voice?In this episode of Plenty, I sit down with the one-and-only Tracy Goodwin, founder of Captivate the Room, whose work completely changed how I understand communication, connection, and conversion. Tracy doesn’t teach “speaking tips.” She hears voices - literally - and she can identify microscopic sounds in your voice that can quietly repel trust, resonance, and income. According to her decades of research, those tiny sounds can cost you anywhere from 30–90% of your impact and revenue.In our conversation, we explore how the voice carries our nervous system history, our unhealed patterns, and the unconscious strategies we learned early in life to stay safe. Tracy breaks down the seven layers of the voice, including what she calls “voice masks” - the subtle ways we try to prove ourselves, sound professional, be liked, or avoid judgment. These masks don’t make us safer. They make us harder to trust.And then - very vulnerably - I let Tracy read my voice live on the podcast.What unfolds is part masterclass, part nervous-system truth telling, and part real-time healing. Tracy pinpoints where I’m working too hard to be understood, where old achievement patterns still leak into my tone, and why my true vocal superpower is actually fun, passion, and dimensionality - not over-precision or proving. Yes, I cry. And yes, it’s worth listening all the way through.We also talk about:Why people decide whether they trust you in under 3 secondsWhy trust alone doesn’t lead to buying - connection doesHow mimicking other leaders damages retention and resonanceWhy your body - not your script - creates magnetic communicationHow clearing your voice can transform relationships, not just revenueIf you’ve ever felt like you’re saying all the “right” things but still not being fully received…If you’ve built success but sense there’s more ease, truth, and power available…If you want your voice to accurately represent who you really are - This episode will change how you show up everywhere.XO,Kate“You can be repelling 30–90% of your impact and income because of sounds in your voice the size of a grain of sand.”  -  Tracy Goodwin🎤 Let’s Dive into the Good Stuff on Plenty 🎤00:00 – Introduction to Voice and Worth01:07 – Live Voice Reading and Authenticity02:13 – Expert Insights and Guest Introduction03:46 – Transforming Voices and Authenticity05:19 – Personal Backstory and Voice Development07:40 – Teaching Dialects and Voice Coaching10:20 – The Role of Subconscious in Voice14:05 – Understanding Body Language and Voice16:42 – Gift of Voice and Self-Discovery19:12 – Voice Masks and Personal Stories22:36 – The Energy of Truth in Performance29:47 – Survival and Voice Expression36:39 – Healing Relationships through Voice52:40 – Time Management in Conversations58:18 – Healing Relationships through VoiceLinks and Resources:The Money ResetConnect with Tracy Goodwin:InstagramLinkedInCaptivate the RoomOnline Programs & Small Group WorkPrivate Voice Coaching & Launch Reviews✨ The Money Reset: Feel Good with Money—No Matter How Much You MakeMaking more money doesn’t guarantee financial ease… but this will.

What if the abundance you’ve been working so hard to create is already here - just waiting for you to ask for it?In this episode of Plenty, I’m sharing one of the most overlooked - and most efficient - ways to unlock prosperity, support, and resources: asking.So many of us were conditioned to believe that being strong means doing everything alone. That wisdom lives in pushing harder, figuring it out in our heads, and proving our self-sufficiency. But that mindset is exactly what keeps abundance just out of reach.In this conversation, I walk you through a real-life example of how simply reaching out - raising your hand and saying “I need support” - can shift circumstances without force or struggle. I talk about why what you desire already exists, how scarcity is rooted in the illusion of separation, and why over-relying on intellect and rugged individualism actually shuts down creativity, clarity, and resource flow.You’ll hear why asking is not weakness - it’s strategy. It’s intelligence. It’s leadership. And it’s how prosperity actually moves.This episode will support you if:You’re carrying the belief that it’s “all on you”You feel stuck trying to solve something alone in your headYou want more ease, support, and flow with money and resourcesYou’re ready to work smarter instead of harderI’ll leave you with one powerful question that can change everything: What do you need help with right now - and who can you ask?Because abundance requires flow. And flow requires connection.XO,Kate“What we desire already exists. Abundance isn’t created from nothing - it’s accessed when we’re willing to ask.”-Kate Northrup🎤 Let’s Dive into the Good Stuff on Plenty 🎤00:00 Introduction to Abundance01:37 Manifesting and Abundance04:04 The Importance of Asking for Help09:01 The Dangers of Individualism11:55 Reconnecting with Community and Source14:14 Call to Action: Seeking SupportLinks and Resources:Money Breakthrough Guide✨ Ready to create more on your wealth-building journey?Ready to create more ease on your wealth-building journey?

What if the life and business you worked so hard to build suddenly stopped feeling worth it - and you listened?In this episode of Plenty, I sit down with Natalie Ellis, founder of Boss Babe, for a real, behind-the-scenes conversation about what happens when success outpaces alignment - and how to rebuild everything around what actually matters.Natalie shares the moment that changed everything: sitting in a meeting while her six-month-old daughter cried in the next room, realizing her calendar, her business, and her nervous system were no longer livable. From that breaking point, she made radical decisions - stepping away, buying her business back, burning down misaligned offers, and rebuilding a company that prioritizes spaciousness, family, and well-being without sacrificing revenue.We talk about:The hidden cost of building success from chaos and survival modeHow motherhood rewired Natalie’s identity, boundaries, and relationship with workWhat it actually looks like to operationalize a nervous-system-first businessWhy “enough” is a powerful financial strategy - and how knowing your number changes everythingLetting go of status, comparison, and the pressure to want more just because you canWhat’s genuinely working right now in online business, social media, and AI (and how Natalie is using it without burning out)This conversation is for you if you’ve built something impressive - but your body is asking for a different pace. If you want to grow in a way that feels sustainable, spacious, and deeply grounded. If you’re ready to stop organizing your life around urgency and start organizing it around what creates real freedom.This is not about having less ambition.It’s about doing business from safety, clarity, and choice.XO,Kate“I didn’t think I could get what I wanted from the business because all I’d ever known was chaos.”  -Natalie Ellis🎤 Let’s Dive into the Good Stuff on Plenty 🎤00:00 – Introduction to Personal Struggles and Realizations01:53 – Overview of the Podcast and Its Purpose04:20 – Challenges Faced in Early Business Ventures07:03 – The Hustle Mentality and Its Consequences11:50 – Impact of Motherhood on Business Perspective15:06 – Navigating Business Growth and Personal Alignment21:23 – Nervous System Awareness and Business Chaos25:14 – Managing Anxiety and Stress Responses30:34 – Building from a Place of Security37:30 – Embracing a Simpler Lifestyle40:57 – Innovative Content Creation Techniques45:38 – Personal Growth and Future AspirationsLinks and Resources:Do LessConnect with Natalie Ellis:InstagramBoss BabeBoss Babe Podcast✨ The Money Reset: Feel Good with Money—No Matter How Much You MakeMaking more money doesn’t guarantee financial ease… but this will.

What if the pressure to “start fresh” on January 1 isn’t motivating you because it was never designed for your body - or your prosperity - in the first place?In this episode of Plenty, I’m dismantling the myth of the New Year and offering a radically more sustainable way to begin again - one that doesn’t grind your gears, burn out your nervous system, or sabotage your income.January 1 is an arbitrary date created for economic standardization, not for human or ecological wellbeing. Yet so many ambitious, capable women push themselves to hit the ground running in the dead of winter - and then wonder why they’re exhausted by February. There’s nothing wrong with you. You’re responding intelligently to a system that’s out of sync with life itself.In this conversation, I walk you through why aligning exclusively with the Gregorian calendar quietly increases burnout, cortisol, and brittle business decisions - and how working with your biological and seasonal rhythms creates clarity, momentum, and more money with less effort. We explore the difference between linear, transactional time and the kind of timeless presence where your best decisions, creativity, and magnetism actually live.I also share a practical, body-based map for structuring your year around real rhythm - composting and clarity in winter, emergence in spring, visibility in summer, and harvest in fall - so your work is supported by nature instead of fighting it. This is the same approach my company used to eliminate 90% of our offers, double down on what actually worked, and create our biggest revenue years with fewer promotions and far less strain.If you’ve ever felt behind at the start of a year, this episode will reset your relationship with time itself - and show you how a regulated nervous system becomes one of your most powerful financial assets.In this episode, you’ll learn:Why January 1 is not a true beginning - and why your body knows itHow ignoring biological rhythms leads to burnout and weaker financial decisionsThe difference between Kronos time (measured, pressured) and Kairos time (expansive, meaningful)How seasonal planning reduces friction and increases profitabilityWhy doing less can actually create more momentum, revenue, and impactThis is an invitation to stop chasing artificial beginnings and start living inside cyclical momentum - where your energy, creativity, and income compound naturally.“A regulated nervous system makes better financial decisions. Less impulsive spending. Clearer pricing. More trust in timing.”–Kate Northrup🎤 Let’s Dive into the Good Stuff on Plenty 🎤00:00 Introduction to Abundance and Energy00:38 The Pressure of New Beginnings02:24 Reclaiming Time and Energy03:50 Historical Perspectives on Time05:00 The Economics of Time13:09 The Power of Seasonal Alignment18:22 Aligning with Nature for Prosperity21:00 Emergence and Action24:55 Reflection and CelebrationLinks and Resources:Do LessHeal the Way You WorkRelaxed Money✨ Heal the Way You Work: Build a Spacious, Profitable Business - Without Working MoreWorking harder doesn’t create sustainable success… but this does.

Have you ever wondered if money isn’t just a resource…but a living consciousness you’re already in relationship with?In this week’s episode of Plenty, I sit down with The Money Shaman, Ry Schwartz, for one of the most paradigm-shifting conversations I’ve ever had about money, healing, and the unseen forces that shape our financial lives.Ry and I explore money not as something we “manage,” fix, or master — but as a fluid, evolving consciousness that responds to our awareness, our compassion, and our willingness to be in genuine relationship with it.We talk about why shadow money work often feels so relieving, how different “streams” of money carry different energetic signatures, why some dollars feel light and others feel heavy, and how we can become stewards who help money heal as it moves through our lives.We also dive into… ✨ What it means to let money find you even when you feel messy or imperfect ✨ How money takes on the energetic imprint of the intentions and emotions it passes through ✨ Simple daily practices to “witness” your money so it can relax and reorganize ✨ Why avoidance around money is rarely laziness — and what it’s usually protecting you from ✨ The connection between intimacy, generosity, and increased financial receptivity ✨ How couples can co-create a shared field that expands both pleasure and prosperityThis conversation is tender, revelatory, and wildly practical. Ry offers a new way of relating to money that brings more safety into your system, more flow into your life, and more grace into every financial exchange.If you’re craving a relationship with money that feels warm, conscious, and regenerative — this episode is for you.“Not all money is the same. It carries different vibratory qualities depending on the energies it’s passed through.”–The Money Shaman, Ry Schwartz🎤 Let’s Dive into the Good Stuff on Plenty 🎤00:00 — Entering the portal: Blue Lotus, synchronicity & the energetic opening04:38 — What Sacred Commerce is & why it’s a bridge beyond capitalism10:32 — Wealth as spiritual: permission to thrive, earn, and support your lineage14:25 — Widening the scope: giving back, sourcing energy beyond the self19:09 — The truth about “enough”: resources, circulation & debunking zero-sum thinking22:33 — Ceremony as a business tool: accessing other realms for support26:14 — Wealth, privilege, and survivor’s guilt: metabolizing the complexity30:27 — Asha’s big why: land conservation & land-back as sacred commerce37:47 — Merging the magical & the logical: operating beyond a 3D-only business43:41 — Human design & astrology as instructional systems for your body of work50:37 — The power of offerings: plants, essences, and ceremonial support57:22 — Your dharma type: the archetypal soul energy you are here to embodyLinks and Resources:Money ResetConnect with Ry Schwartz:LinkedInInstagram✨ The Money Reset: Feel Good with Money—No Matter How Much You Make Rewire your nervous system for wealth, stop the money-in/money-out cycle, and create sustainable abundance.

Have you ever wondered why money feels so much more spacious when you make one aligned decision instead of a thousand tiny ones every day?In this week’s episode of Plenty, I’m diving deep into one of the most overlooked pathways to relaxed wealth: financial boundaries. Not the rigid, budget-heavy kind that feel like punishment… but the kind that act like the riverbanks that keep your financial flow clear, directed, and easeful.I share how boundaries — financial and energetic — create more safety in your nervous system, more trust in your decisions, and more alignment between where your money goes and what truly matters to you. We explore:🌿 Why decision fatigue drains not only your energy but your money🌿 How to know (in your body) when something is a financial yes or no🌿 The connection between your human design authority and aligned money choices🌿 Real examples of my own financial boundaries, from client agreements to household spending🌿 Why saying “no” to the misaligned is actually saying a deeper “yes” to yourselfYou’ll also hear simple ways to start practicing aligned yeses and embodied noes in tiny, everyday moments — which makes the bigger financial choices so much clearer. And I walk you through how to begin crafting the kinds of abundance agreements we use inside Relaxed Money so your money can flow where it’s meant to, without leaking into places that don’t nourish you.If you’ve ever felt like money decisions take more energy than you want to give… or you know your spending and earning could feel more regenerative and grounded… this episode will feel like an exhale.And if you want support rewiring your nervous system for greater ease with money, don’t miss the free Money Reset audio experience I created for you at katenorthrup.com/reset.“Financial boundaries are the riverbanks that keep your abundance flowing where it’s meant to go.” –Kate Northrup🎤 Let’s Dive into the Good Stuff on Plenty 🎤00:00 Introduction to Financial Boundaries00:38 Understanding Financial Boundaries01:13 The Importance of Financial Boundaries02:16 Signs You Need Financial Boundaries03:08 Decision Fatigue and Financial Boundaries04:19 Creating Abundance Agreements05:24 Aligning Spending with Values07:48 Consumer Culture and Financial Awareness08:54 The Purpose of Money10:00 Setting Financial Boundaries11:49 Examples of Personal Financial Boundaries13:06 Learning from Financial Mistakes13:54 Practicing Financial Awareness14:30 Operationalizing Financial Boundaries15:01 Client Communication Boundaries16:02 General Financial Guidelines17:06 Reframing Financial Boundaries17:32 Safety in Financial Boundaries18:23 Empowered Financial Decisions19:33 Conclusion and Next StepsLinks and Resources:The Money Reset✨ Overnight Rockstar: A Proven Path to New Eyes, New Clients, and Real GrowthYou’re doing meaningful work.

Have you ever realized that the identity you’ve built—the one that’s kept everything running—might also be the very thing keeping you from your next becoming?In this week’s episode of Plenty, I get to sit down with someone who has witnessed me through many of my own becomings: my longtime friend and former coach, Chela Davison. Our conversation is an intimate, funny, deeply human exploration of midlife unraveling as an initiation into deeper truth, creative recovery, and a fuller expression of self.Chela and I trace the arc of her journey from being the hyper-capable, endlessly resilient woman who could “make anything happen,” to the moment her internal generator finally sputtered out—and how that collapse ushered her into a two-year wintering season that ultimately birthed her acclaimed one-woman show, A Little Bit Much. We talk about the illusion of the breadwinner, the stories we project onto our partnerships, and the internalized cultural narratives that quietly shape our sense of worth.We also explore what it means to be “a little bit much” in a world that often prefers women palatable and contained—how to preserve our aliveness without overwhelming ourselves or others, and how to move from performative productivity into regenerative creativity. Chela’s story is a living example of following the energy, listening for what wants to be created, and allowing art to heal the artist first.This episode is full of laughter, truth telling, permission, and the kind of midlife wisdom that only comes from letting something fall apart so something truer can emerge.I can’t wait for you to listen.In this episode you’ll discover:✨ Over-identifying with resilience led to burnout✨ Creative recovery came from stepping back and slowing down✨ Challenging and redefining breadwinner narratives✨ Embracing being “a little bit much” as strength✨ Creative growth comes from staying with the process“I looked around and asked myself, ‘Who am I willing to disappoint to get my life back?’ And the first person I realized I was willing to disappoint… was me.” — Chela Davidson🎤 Let’s Dive into the Good Stuff on Plenty 🎤00:00 – Introduction to Resilience & Identity00:26 – Guest Background & Creative Recovery03:00 – Turning 40, Maturity & Evolving Identity05:12 – Childhood Messaging & Self-Perception07:35 – Career Success, Challenges & Vulnerability09:13 – Burnout, Loss & Identity Crisis11:51 – Reclaiming Creative Life Force13:07 – Resentment, Breadwinning & Gender Expectations16:21 – Healing Through Vulnerability & Relationship Dynamics19:17 – The Influence of Patriarchy & Processing Resentment21:25 – Creative Recovery, New Projects & Self-Discovery27:22 – Vulnerability in Creative Processes & Community38:19 – Social Media, Creative Resistance & Staying With the Work44:18 – Art, Healing & Creative Integrity50:42 – The Journey of Art, Commerce & Creative Community54:49 – Closing Thoughts & ResourcesLinks and Resources:Free Money Breakthrough GuideConnect with Chela Davison:WebsiteWizdotainmentA Little Bit MuchInstagram✨ The Money Reset: Feel Good with Money—No Matter How Much You Make Rewire your nervous system for wealth, stop the money-in/money-out cycle, and create sustainable abundance.

Have you ever made more money… only to find yourself overspending, shrinking back, or feeling anxious instead of abundant? If so, you’re not alone — and there’s nothing wrong with you.In this episode, I explore one of the most important — and most misunderstood — pieces of financial growth: your money nervous system thermostat. We often think that earning more should feel good, natural, or easy. But the truth is, if a part of your body doesn’t feel safe with more, it will unconsciously pull you back to what’s familiar, even if what’s familiar is financial stress, inconsistency, or sabotage.I share: ✨ Why lifestyle inflation, overspending, or freezing with money isn’t a lack of discipline — it’s a nervous system response. ✨ How our childhood environment (not just money memories) sets our internal “thermostat” for how much abundance feels safe. ✨ The science behind why expansion often triggers threat responses like guilt, fear, or shame — even when something good is happening. ✨ Powerful, practical tools to build your capacity to earn more and keep more, including nervous system healing practices and co-regulation in community.I also share personal stories — including the moment Louise Hay offered me my first book deal and why my immediate response was a shame spiral rather than celebration. This is such a potent example of how expansion can overwhelm our body if we haven’t updated our internal capacity to receive more.You’ll walk away understanding: 🌿 Why financial strategy can’t stick without nervous system safety 🌿 How to start signaling “you are safe” during both contraction and expansion 🌿 The key questions to ask your body to uncover the stories and sensations running the show 🌿 How safe community accelerates your capacity to hold more wealth with ease and consistencyThis episode will help you stop the patterns that have kept you cycling between making more and losing it — and instead begin to create a nervous system that can hold, grow, and enjoy wealth. When you practice feeling safe with more, more becomes normal."If you've ever made more money only to find yourself shrinking back, overspending, or sabotaging it, it’s not because there’s something wrong with you — it’s because a part of you doesn’t feel safe with more." –Kate Northrup🎤 Let’s Dive into the Good Stuff on Plenty 🎤00:00 Welcome + Why earning more can feel unsafe02:10 Justin Bieber example: making more ≠ keeping more04:05 Lifestyle creep + hedonic adaptation explained06:00 What your “money nervous system thermostat” really is08:15 How childhood environment shapes your financial capacity10:20 Why expansion can trigger sabotage, fear, or shame12:45 Overspending, overgiving, or freezing: different dysregulation patterns14:30 Tools to signal safety during financial expansion17:05 Kate’s Hay House book-deal story + co-regulation19:40 Questions to ask your body to expand your money capacity21:30 Closing + The Money Reset invitationLinks and Resources:Neurosomatic IntelligenceRelaxed Money Live✨ The Money Reset: Feel Good with Money—No Matter How Much You MakeMaking more money doesn’t guarantee financial ease… but this will.

What if your business was a temple?In this week’s episode, Kate talks with Asha Ramakrishna—priestess, molecular biologist, and author—about Sacred Commerce: an emergent framework bridging capitalism and consciousness. Asha reveals the four ethos of sacred commerce—Feel Good, Be Wealthy, Give Back, and Liberate—and shares how merging the magical and the logical allows us to heal our relationship with money and purpose.They explore Blue Lotus as a sacred symbol of rebirth, Lakshmi energy, human design as a business map, and how knowing your dharma type can guide your offerings and marketing in an energetically aligned way.In this episode you’ll discover:✨ The four ethos of Sacred Commerce✨ Why pleasure is essential to prosperity✨ How wealth, dharma, and liberation interconnect✨ Using astrology and human design to decode your “soul map”✨ Blue Lotus, Lakshmi, and ceremony as allies in business✨ Why your conscious sun holds your key to expression“Sacred commerce is about merging the magical and the logical—heaven and earth, sun and moon—so that business becomes a bridge to liberation.” — Asha Ramakrishna🎤 Let’s Dive into the Good Stuff on Plenty 🎤00:00 Kate opens with the magic of Asha’s arrival and the portal of Blue Lotus03:10 What is Sacred Commerce?

What if dissolving shame is the missing step between you and real financial momentum?In this solo episode of Plenty, Kate unpacks the tight grip of debt shame and financial secrecy—and why hiding from the numbers stalls your progress far more than the numbers themselves. She reframes debt as “invoices for blessings already received” and makes the critical distinction between high-interest consumer debt and debt that makes you money (the positive “spread” when your return outpaces your interest). You’ll also hear why all-or-nothing thinking is a nervous-system red flag, and how telling someone safe is often the first step to clarity and action.We cover: releasing shame by bringing things into the light, building capacity to “do the math,” and seeing nuanced opportunities—so you can either dissolve unhelpful debt or strategically leverage it for wealth.Listen now to discover: ✨ Why shame halts financial progress—and how sharing it sets you free ✨ “Invoices for blessings already received” as a practical reframe for debt ✨ The difference between consumer debt and return-producing leverage (the spread) ✨ How dysregulation fuels avoidant money habits—and what to do instead ✨ A simple truth-telling step: tell someone safe and start looking at the numbers“I call debt invoices for blessings already received.” — Kate Northrup🎤 Let’s Dive into the Good Stuff on Plenty 🎤00:00 Why debt shame keeps you stuck; welcoming honesty and light00:27 Show intro: money, time, energy, and a life of plenty01:27 Debt, secrecy, and why shame halts financial progress02:22 Tell the truth (to someone safe); vulnerability has to be earned03:12 Debt ≠ bad: using credit as a wealth-building tool when appropriate04:09 Credit, solvency, and why “no credit” can limit leverage06:03 “Invoices for blessings already received” (student loans, credit cards, mortgages)06:40 Beware false binaries; nuance requires a regulated nervous system07:12 The spread: borrowing at 4% to earn 100%—a positive use of debt09:32 High-interest consumer debt vs. productive debt (don’t pay 20% APR)11:05 Normalizing the month-to-month “float” in real businesses13:48 From credit-card debt to 8-figure growth: dissolving shame to act15:11 When fear blocks math: build capacity, then choose the smart move16:22 Two actions: tell someone safe; start doing something about it17:19 Seeing you may have been smarter than you thought (the numbers help)18:19 Learn the lesson, integrate it, and change the pattern19:36 Any past decision can become wealth once shame’s story is droppedLinks and Resources:Brené BrownRelaxed Money✨ The Money Reset: Feel Good with Money—No Matter How Much You MakeMaking more money doesn’t guarantee financial ease… but this will.
