🎙️ Vibe-N-Shine Podcast | Episode 12 : What Death Can Teach Us About Living

Have you ever had a moment where you looked at your life and thought… I don’t even recognize myself anymore? In this deeply moving episode, we sit down with Jessica Catlin, an end-of-life educator and death doula, to explore what it means to come back home to yourself—and how confronting life’s most finite truth can actually teach you how to live more fully. Jessica shares her powerful journey from living in survival mode and feeling invisible… to reclaiming her voice, her worth, and her purpose in one of the most profound spaces: end-of-life care. If you’ve been feeling disconnected, stuck in old patterns, or questioning the life you’ve built… this conversation will meet you exactly where you are. We explore: What it means to live intentionally when time is our most limited resource How early experiences can shape a “stay small to stay safe” mindset The moment you realize you’ve become a stranger to yourself How boundaries can disrupt relationships—but create deeper alignment Why making space for yourself is the first step to hearing your true voice We also unpack powerful shifts like: Survival mode → intentional living Invisibility → self-expression External validation → self-trust Comfort → curiosity and growth Overgiving → energetic reciprocity …and what it really looks like to step into a new way of being: Choosing what aligns instead of what’s expected Trusting your inner voice over outside noise Letting go of relationships that no longer honor you Following the “why not?” instead of staying stuck in “why?” Jessica also brings a unique perspective on how improving your relationship with death can transform the way you live—touching on topics like advance care planning, supporting caregivers, and the emotional realities many face at the end of life. Take a moment with us: Where in your life are you shrinking to stay comfortable? What would shift if you gave yourself permission to choose differently?

🎙️ Vibe-N-Shine Podcast | Episode 11, Part II: Uncovering and Shifting our Outdated Systems

Have you ever felt like you’re doing everything “right”… but still feel disconnected, anxious, or unfulfilled? In Part II of this conversation, we go deeper into the patterns that once protected us—but may now be quietly holding us back. Because the truth is… many of the habits, mindsets, and coping mechanisms we rely on today were built in survival mode. And while they once kept us safe, they may now be keeping us stuck. If you’ve been feeling disconnected from yourself, overwhelmed by pressure, or unsure why you can’t fully receive the life you’re building… this episode will help you understand why.  We explore: How emotional suppression can lead to disconnection from yourself and your joy Why control can show up as chronic anxiety—and how to shift it The hidden link between achievement and conditional self-worth How avoidance keeps us stagnant (even when we call it “being patient”) Why seeking external validation can disconnect you from your inner voice The nervous system patterns behind feeling unable to rest, receive, or feel safe in success  We also unpack real-life experiences like: Feeling disconnected from your identity as you grow and evolve Losing yourself in relationships or numbing through distractions Overplanning and micromanaging to feel safe Staying in misaligned relationships longer than you should Second-guessing your intuition and looking outside yourself for answers Struggling to feel at ease—even when life is going well …and how to shift into a more aligned way of living:  Allowing yourself to feel without judgment  Choosing self-trust over control  Knowing your worth without needing to prove it  Practicing gentle courage instead of avoidance  Learning to validate yourself from within  Teaching your body it’s safe to rest, receive, and expand  A powerful reframe: None of these patterns are “wrong.” They worked. They protected you. But what protected you in the past may be limiting you in who you’re becoming.  Signs you may be outgrowing your old blueprint: * Success without fulfillment * Resistance to routines you once loved * Overthinking instead of feeling excited about what’s next * Feeling restless, bored, or emotional without a clear reason * Craving more space, simplicity, or depth in your life  Why letting go feels so hard: * Choosing familiar discomfort over unfamiliar growth * Fear of starting over—even when you’re not * Attachment to the version of you that once “figured it out” * Seeking external validation instead of internal alignment  Redesigning your next chapter: * Ask “Who am I now?” instead of “What should I do next?” * Let your values lead before your strategy * Create space before forcing clarity * Take small, aligned steps instead of overwhelming overhauls * Give yourself permission to evolve—without explanation  Take a moment with us: What am I holding onto that no longer fits? Where am I being invited to grow?  Affirmation: “I release what no longer aligns and trust myself to grow into what’s meant for me.” — About Your Hosts: Krista supports moms with ADHD in learning how to work with their brains—not against them—so they can thrive in life and motherhood.

In this powerful episode, we dive into what it really means to outgrow the version of yourself that once felt safe, successful, or necessary—and why that discomfort you’re feeling might actually be a sign of growth, not failure. If you’ve been feeling stuck, misaligned, or like you’re standing between who you were and who you’re becoming… this conversation is for you.  We explore: What the “old blueprint” really is (and where it comes from) How inherited beliefs, hustle culture, and survival mode shape our lives Why what once protected you may now be holding you back The emotional discomfort of growth—even when life looks “fine” on paper  We also unpack common patterns many women experience: People-pleasing → self-abandonment Hyper-independence → isolation Perfectionism → paralysis Over-responsibility → burnout …and how to shift into healthier, more aligned ways of living:  Honesty over harmony  Interdependence over independence  Progress over perfection  Releasing roles you never consciously chose About Your Hosts: Krista supports moms with ADHD in learning how to work with their brains—not against them—so they can thrive in life and motherhood.

Feeling off, unmotivated, or not like yourself lately? What if you’re not stuck… you’re actually recalibrating? In this episode, we explore how to find alignment again after life shifts—whether it’s after the holidays, burnout, grief, growth, or stepping into a new version of yourself.
