Class with Kate

What happens when you stop avoiding your feelings and actually process them in real time?
In this episode, Kate gets vulnerable in real time by making a “hate list” — uncovering annoyance, fear, and emotions that are usually buried beneath unwanted behaviors. 
Then in Office Hours, Laura shares her fears about parenting her daughter while navigating difficult family dynamics and trying not to repeat unhealthy patterns.
A raw episode about feeling the hard stuff, breaking cycles, and learning what healthy emotional processing actually looks like.

Estrangement is painful—and for many adult children, it feels completely unfair. Because it is. In fact, IT’S BULLSHIT.
 
In this episode, we talk about whether reconciliation is actually possible, what real change would require, and that you don’t NEED your parents to heal.  
 
You’ll learn how to process what happened, regulate your emotions, and move forward on your own terms—whether that includes reconnection or not.
 
Because while you didn’t create this dynamic, you do get to decide what happens next.

So what do you do when healing itself becomes the problem?

Two women. Two marriages. Different stages—and completely different next steps.
In week two of the group format, Kate listens to both Jackie and Tina’s stories and compares what’s actually happening in each relationship—showing why the same advice doesn’t work for everyone.
She helps each woman get clear on what to do next based on where they are, not where they wish they were.
Then she breaks down what detachment and real connection look like at different stages—so you can stop guessing and start responding to your relationship more accurately.

Ever found yourself crying and laughing at the same time—and then feeling confused or even ashamed?
In this episode, we walk through a real-life example of what looks like “losing control” emotionally… and break down what’s actually happening underneath.

Identify what you’re actually feeling beneath the reaction
Understand the unmet need driving those emotions
Regulate your body without shutting yourself down
Respond instead of spiraling
And for the first time, you’ll see a clear, step-by-step walkthrough of what your needs actually look like once you’ve identified your feelings—so you’re not stuck at awareness, but can move into real change.
