Kat & Steve - Faith, force and my non-best selling book

In this episode, Steve and I get into a conversation about success, faith, control and what happens when you start questioning the things you once thought mattered so much. Of course, we also cover why Steve hated me for a few hours after getting a flat tyre while coming to film my free community qi gong, and our upcoming trek to Annapurna Base Camp in Nepal, which we have done a grand total of fuck all training for. We get into my very much non bestselling book, Authentic , and why I recently decided to publicly own the fact that it didn't become the bestseller a part of me had hoped it would. Not because I am disappointed in the book, but because I have been looking at my own relationship with success, achievement, comparison and the meaning we attach to outcomes. Because if you don't own something, it can end up owning you. And I have no desire to let numbers, expectations or a little bit of shame take away from something I am bloody proud of. We also explore the relationship between faith and action. Steve is very much a man who believes in doing the work and making shit happen, whereas I am learning to put in the effort, listen deeply, trust timing and know when to step back. Neither forcing everything into reality nor sitting around waiting for the universe to deliver feels like the answer. There is a dance between the two, and we get into what that looks like in our lives, our businesses and the opportunities that have come our way. We speak about the illusion of control, the uncertainty of life and how the intentions we set do not always unfold in the ways we expect. Sometimes what we think success should look like is very different from what ends up being meaningful. This episode is a funny, honest conversation about loosening the grip, questioning what success actually means to you, doing your bit and learning to trust what happens next. Because you can work hard, want wonderful things for your life and still leave room for something you could never have planned. Support the show
