What Happens When You Go All In on You (ft. Kathryn Ducey)

What happens when you stop waiting for someone else to choose you… and you choose yourself instead?

In this episode, I’m joined by my coach, friend and permission slip writer Kathryn Ducey to talk about the power of betting on yourself—and what unfolds when you finally go all in.

We explore what it takes to stop hiding, stop hesitating, and stop asking for permission to embody the full expression of your magic.

We cover:

✧ Choosing yourself when you don’t yet have the proof

✧ Leaving good enough for greatness

✧ How your conditioning chooses your relationships

✧ Going all in without a safety net

✧ How your secondary gain may be sabotaging you

✧ What does uncertainty feel like in your body?

✧ The importance of living in the gain not the gap

If you’re standing on the edge of your next evolution, this is your reminder:You’re the safe bet. You’re the whole damn thing.

The Sacred Path of Self-Trust & Somatic Channeling

What if releasing control finally brought you the clarity and alignment you’ve been craving?

In this episode, I sit down with my friend, spiritual mentor and the creator of Somatic Channeling, Taylor Bratches to explore how surrender became her portal into radical self-trust, healing, and aligning with her purpose.

We talk about what it means to move from the head into the body, processing and releasing trauma, letting go of anxiety and depression, as well as the magic of learning to fully trust what’s alive inside of us—even when it seems shadowy and weird.

In this episode, we cover:

✧ What is Somatic Channeling?

✧ How did it come to be? Taylor’s story

✧ How we met and I became Taylor’s first student?

✧ How the practice changed our lives

✧ What true surrender looks and feels like

✧ What self-trust has opened up in each of us

This one is soft, deep, and expansive—like being wrapped in a permission slip you didn’t realize you’d been waiting for.

How I Found My Person Without Shrinking Who I Am

This is Part 2 of the story—what happens after you stop abandoning yourself to be loved.

In this episode, I share how I moved from self-abandonment to self-honoring, from contorting to clarity, and how that inner work created the foundation for calling in a partnership that feels safe, sovereign, and soul-led.

I talk about the reality of reentering the dating world after a long-term relationship—navigating dating apps, emotional boomerangs, and the deep discomfort of holding your standards when it would be easier to bend. And then… what happened when I didn’t bend. What happened when I met Lee.

You’ll hear:

✧ What it looked like to date without shrinking or shape-shifting

✧ The wild healing that comes from finally choosing your own nervous system

✧ The exact way I approached this relationship differently from the start

✧ How Lee and I co-created safety, softness, and truth—together

✧ A letter I wrote to my future husband, before I knew it was him

This is the episode for anyone learning to trust that real love won’t require you to become less. It’s the reminder that your too much is perfect—for the right person.
