The Weight of Running on Empty

The Weight of Running on Empty

This week, Kate unpacks burnout: the unwanted layer that convinces us to keep going long after we've run on empty. She explores the pressure to always cope, the guilt of resting, and why we so often put everyone else's needs before our own. If you're exhausted, overwhelmed, or carrying more than you can hold, this episode is your permission slip to stop, breathe, and remember: you don't have to earn your rest.

When Coping Becomes Carrying

This time around, Kate talks about When Coping Becomes Carrying, and addiction: how we might use it to silence or amplify the noise inside our heads, and why we sometimes reach for something rather than reach out for help. But we are not our addictions, and we deserve to take up space without carrying the weight of shame.

The Weight of Downplaying Who You Are

Have you ever felt like you've somehow fooled everyone? This week, Kate unpacks imposter syndrome, why we struggle to own our place in the world, dismiss our achievements, and find it so difficult to believe we deserve to be celebrated.

The Weight Behind the Mask

Meet the mask. The one that smiles when you're hurting, laughs when you're exhausted and tells everyone you're "fine." This week, Kate explores why so many of us hide what we're really carrying, and why we don't always have to carry it alone. Because behind every mask is a human being carrying something.

The Unwanted Heckler

Meet our unwanted heckler: self-doubt. The one that roasts us, questions us and occasionally convinces us we've forgotten our own seat number. Join Kate as she explores the voice that tells us we're not enough – and why we don't have to believe everything it says.
