Taking Time To Heal
After asking myself the question, "what can I do that would be deeply beneficial to me?", I received the answer, "take a step back where you can." Straight away I began to notice where I could pull back and one of those places was to take a break from podcasting this week. Of course, my thoughts are flying around saying how I can't do that. But, I can. I'm buying back some of my time to heal and process current upgrades. See you next week treasures. xSupport the show

What's Your Relationship With Control?
As children, we create a control dynamic in order to deal with life's happenings. For example, maybe you were the eldest child and had all the love and attention from your caregivers. Then, your sibling is born and that love and attention is shared. Unconsciously you make a decision about what that means and how to behave in order to gain control back. Maybe it's by being overpowering to your younger sibling or becoming reckless to take the attention back. This is control dynamics at play and we all do it to feel safe. I've recently uncovered one for myself which I share about in today's episode.

When You’re Filled With Anxiety
What do you do when you're filled with anxiety? Do you find it too uncomfortable to feel? Do you look for ways to distract yourself, will-fully tell it to, "fk off", or do you become it and let is take you over?I used to get angry when anxiety would show its face. I made it mean that something was wrong with me and that I wasn't mentally resilient. Now, I'm still not a fan but I have better ways of managing it. In today's episode I share about being in the hight of anxiety and how I'm currently managing it.

What’s Your Relationship Like With Your Thoughts?
Do your thoughts rule the roost? When they come in, do you grab onto each thought and hold it to be the whole truth? Do you behave in ways where you question, "what the hell am I doing?"Do you know you're not your thoughts but you don't have a way to not be overcome by them?Today's episode is about what can happen when we don't powerfully manage the thoughts in our head, how that contributes to feeling shit about ourselves and what you can begin doing to shift the current relationship with your thoughts.

Not Just A Highlight Reel
Last week the full moon hit me hard! I woke up and felt like I'd been whacked across my head and was in a state of, "ughhhhh!"I shared about this on insta and plenty of people were in a similar boat. Most were like, "OMG, me too, thank God I'm not alone", whilst others offered advice to help shift the state I was experiencing. If you've watched Brene Brown's Atlas of The Heart on Binge, then you'll recall her talking about how control is the near enemy to compassion. That when you open up to someone and they feel uncomfortable, instead of sitting with you, they feel the need to fix or offer a solution. To me, it's important to share the whole journey of mental health and not just a highlight reel. It helps people feel heard, seen and less alone. In today's episode I share more about this and how our need to fix locks out compassion and as a result, connection.

One Very Powerful Way To End Indecision
This is a tool I have used for years when I am unsure about what decision to make or when I'm wondering if I've made the 'right' one. To be real, there's no right or wrong decision, as both lead to experiences, however this practice really helps provide certainty and a feeling of support from the invisible forces that you're on the right path.

Stop “Fixing” Yourself
To all my fellow, “I need to fix myself in order to be loved, accepted, chosen, taken seriously”,or whatever wonderful limiting belief you’ve made up, this one’s for you.My ex full time job was to fix me to perfection and it drove me to feeling so low about myself. I didn’t want one shard of broken piece left in me, and I made it my business to clean it all up.Turns out, the real work was in accepting the bottomless pit of brokenness and darkness, acknowledging it, listening to it, understanding why it’s there and learning to coexist with it.If this is you right now, please, reach out. I am here to show you another way that will bring greater peace, empowerment and freedom than trying to get rid of it can.NEXT LIVE EVENTSSunday Meds - 29th May - Get your tickets here!ZEROFKS Dance Party - 7th June - Get your tickets here!COACHING PROGRAMSReal & Raw - Journey into The Self through the 7-chakra system - https://katjohn.com.au/real-and-raw/The Legends - Powerfully manage your head, so you can live through your heart and focus on what matters - https://katjohn.com.au/the-legends/Book your 15-minute clarity call with mehttps://katjohn.as.me/chat-with-katSend us an email or DMinfo@katjohn.com.au@kat.johnSupport the show

Are You Investing In Yourself?
I wondered why I've been feeling so bloody good lately. It got me thinking and I asked myself, "what's changed?" It became clear that I've been investing in myself and am in 'learning mode'. At present, I have a coach who I reached out to, to help me expand. Recently, I went on the Her Trails Hiking Retreat in the Northern Territory and I signed up to Tory Archbold's business attraction program. It makes sense, I'm filling myself up with the goods and have tapped into people I respect and who I believe can help me. My usual ways of thinking, doing and being are being challenged, questioned and reset which I am loving! Are you investing in yourself? If not, why? If yes, how's it going for you? If you haven't for a while, do you feel called to? Today's episode is here as a reminder to check in with yourself.

Do You Ignore Your Truth?
Do you listen to the needs of your body? Do you listen if your body needs rest? Do you listen to the answers inside of you, or give your power away to others and only listen to them? After an amazing client session recently, it came about for her to listen to herself, and to make space for that to happen. The simplicity of this message had a profound effect on her, because for so long the opinions of others mattered more than her own. For her, that ends now. Today's episode is a great opportunity to check in with yourself and ask if you listen to yourself, or not. If you don't, why? What are the stories you tell yourself? What would be different if you did start listening? NEXT LIVE EVENTSunday Meds - 29th MayGet your tickets here!
