17. Unlearn Hustle Culture + Build a Life Rooted in Joy with Kate Lombardo

22. Gemini Season: Shift Your Thoughts, Shift Your Life

Gemini energy is often misunderstood as chaotic, but beneath the quick wit and ever-changing energy is something deeply human: the desire to connect. To understand and be understood. To sit across from another person and genuinely want to hear their story. Katie explores Gemini as the eternal student of the zodiac—read: mutable, adaptable, endlessly curious, and capable of creating entire realities through language and thought. Katie reflects on the shadow side of Gemini energy too, especially the tension between communication and manipulation. This season really asks us to examine not only how we communicate with others, but also how we communicate with ourselves. Whether there’s a skill you’ve been wanting to develop or a story you’ve been wanting to rewrite, this episode is an invitation to create intentional space for it now. Key Dates: * Gemini Season: May 20 – June 21 * Sagittarius Full Moon: May 31 * Gemini New Moon: June 14 She also discusses: * Why Gemini is known as the “eternal student” * The mutable energy of Gemini season * Communication as creation + the power of words * Why curiosity can become a spiritual practice * Intellectualizing emotions vs. actually feeling them * The beauty of listening deeply to others * How Gemini energy helps people feel seen + understood * The shadow side of Gemini (manipulation) * Creating space for new skills + ideas * Sharing your voice with the world Connect: * Katie Healy’s Instagram: @katiehealywellness [https://www.instagram.com/katiehealywellness/] * Katie Healy’s Website: katiehealywellness.com [http://katiehealywellness.com] Resources: * Listen [https://open.spotify.com/playlist/11ACFStQD41HCpLDAaxO6o?si=dJ3IwU8SSC_9uTFAK2x3MA&nd=1&dlsi=bfb5aebaef264748] to the Gemini Season Playlist * Special Offer: In honor of the one year anniversary of Breathe In, Scream Out, Katie is offering a free birth chart reading for listeners who share the episode on social media (or with a friend) or leave a written review of the podcast.

21. Sensuality Is the Pleasure of Being with Emily Rose

In a culture obsessed with digestibility and performance, what happens when movement becomes about feeling instead of being seen? This week, Katie sits down with Emily Rose—Erotic Embodiment Mentor for women, founder, and co-leader of The Business Coven—for a conversation about grief, pole dancing, pleasure, creativity, femininity, and financial abundance. Together, they explore embodiment beyond wellness buzzwords, building a business without self-abandonment, and what it means to create a life rooted in sensuality and authenticity. “Embodiment is the art of living and sensuality is the pleasure of being,” says Emily Rose, describing pleasure not as something indulgent, but as a way of returning to yourself and expanding your capacity to fully experience life. They also discuss: * The stigma + assumptions surrounding pole dancing * What embodiment actually means in everyday life * Building a business during COVID with little financial stability * Navigating fear + uncertainty * The age of performative wellness * Being an artist in a world that “contains” * Why freedom in movement can feel uncomfortable at first * The emotional and embodied power of pole dancing * The intimate community she has built through her work Connect: * Emily Rose's Instagram: @the.sensual.ceo [https://www.instagram.com/the.sensual.ceo/] * Emily Rose's business: @thrive_embodiedarts [https://www.instagram.com/thrive_embodiedarts/] * Katie Healy’s Instagram: @katiehealywellness [https://www.instagram.com/katiehealywellness/] * Katie Healy’s Website: katiehealywellness.com [http://katiehealywellness.com] Resources: * Listen [https://open.spotify.com/playlist/11ACFStQD41HCpLDAaxO6o?si=dJ3IwU8SSC_9uTFAK2x3MA&nd=1&dlsi=bfb5aebaef264748] to Taurus Season Playlist * Book a birth chart reading with Katie by emailing katiehealywellness@gmail.com (Leave a review for the podcast & get 10% off your reading!)

20. Taurus Season: Get Out of Your Head + Into Your Life

We’ve entered Taurus season, which means it’s time to stop spiraling in your head and come back into your body. Into your breath. Into what you can actually touch, taste, feel… because life is meant to be savored. Let us ground into the energy of Taurus, the second sign of the zodiac and the first earth sign of the zodiac calendar. Ahead, Katie explores what it really means to feel safe, abundant, and at home in your life.

19. The Life You Want Is the One You’re Avoiding with Lynn Mull

Sometimes the thing we’re most exhausted by isn’t our job, our schedule, or even our relationships—it’s the constant striving to have it all together. The busyness and the pressure to prove that we’re doing enough, being enough, achieving enough. And yet, underneath all of it, there might be a voice asking for something else entirely. In this episode, Katie sits down with Lynn Mull, a holistic career coach, author, and former Wall Street professional who spent nearly two decades in financial services before redefining success on her own terms. Blending corporate strategy with practical wellness, Lynn brings a grounded perspective on what it actually looks like to step out of autopilot and into alignment. From navigating a shocking and life-altering experience in her career to learning how to follow curiosity, ask for help, and take ownership of her life—financially, emotionally, and energetically—this conversation is an invitation to stop doing what you think you should be doing and start living life on your own terms. They also explore: * Why asking for help can feel so uncomfortable * Lynn’s unexpected journey from Wall Street into the wellness space * The profound impact of experiencing her boss’s murder and how it reshaped her life perspective * What it really means to turn inward and begin “the journey within” * Letting yourself explore without needing a perfectly mapped-out plan * How to start making time for yourself when life already feels full * The importance of being willing to try * Why modern society glorifies busyness + how to unlearn it * What it means to truly be the leader of your own life, including owning your financial reality * Why some people resist leadership in their own lives * Using tools like astrology as a framework for deeper self-understanding * Practical ways to start asking for help and receiving support * Advice for women feeling stuck or misaligned in their careers * Learning to thank yourself for taking care of yourself Connect: * Lynn Mull’s Website: lynnmull.com [http://www.lynnmull.com] * Lynn Mull’s Instagram: @_lynnmull [https://www.instagram.com/_lynnmull/] * Katie Healy’s Instagram: @katiehealywellness [https://www.instagram.com/katiehealywellness/] * Katie Healy’s Website: katiehealywellness.com [http://katiehealywellness.com] Resources: * Lynn’s Oracle Deck: lynnmull.com/shop [http://lynnmull.com/shop] * Listen [https://open.spotify.com/playlist/6dF3z0d2anxnFS8eFefWmj?si=d47c8eaf97b44772&nd=1&dlsi=2989daa8142e426c] to Aries Season Playlist * Book a birth chart reading with Katie by emailing katiehealywellness@gmail.com (Leave a review for the podcast & get 10% off your reading!)
