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!

Fuelling My Wild Heart
I've recently returned from Alice Springs after hiking the Larapinta Trail. It's safe to say that this time away cracked me open and fuelled my wild heart.The transition from civilised living to camping in swags under billions of stars, in the middle of nowhere and on the red dirt, was far easier than I thought. In fact, I loved it! Eating around the campfire, sharing stories with the women and living basic, revealed to me how beautiful life is and the magic that is right "there" when distractions no longer distract.In today's episode I share with you the change I feel making its way into my bones, the blessings I've taken away so far and that I loved being outside of my comfort zone.

What Is The Fight REALLY About?
Steve and I were driving to my friends wedding and we had the dumbest disagreement. Our defences were at play and we were going nowhere, fast! Beneath the bullshit, the disagreement was really about Steve feeling unsupported by me, and I felt I was being controlled by him. On the surface we had our swords, shields and armoured suits on, both spitting fire and thinking we're both right. But underneath the stupidity of our disagreement, our old wounds were fuelling the sword fight. Once we acknowledged what it was really about, we could stop with the tit for tat, get to the bottom of it and move on.

Freeing Your Next Layer Of Authentic Expression
We all do a pretty good job of hiding some amazing parts of ourselves. We can hide our self expression for fear of looking foolish. We can hide our values and what we stand for, for fear of being rejected. We can hide our dreams for fear they'll never come true.Whatever we hide has a story behind it. A story that has power over the next layer of authentic expression finding its way out of you and into the world, unless you choose to call BS on the story.NEXT LIVE EVENTSunday Meds - MelbourneGet your tickets - https://www.eventbrite.com.au/e/sunday-meds-in-real-life-tickets-315892431767COACHING PROGRAMSReal & Raw - Journey into The Self through the 7-chakra system.Begins June 8th, 2022 - 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.Begins June 21st, 2022 - https://katjohn.com.au/the-legends/Follow me on instahttps://www.instagram.com/kat.john/Support the show
