#76 Healing Backwards and Forwards: Ancestral Trauma, ADHD, and Reclaiming Your Life with Kate Watt

from Josephine McGrail · host Josephine McGrail

Send us Fan MailIn this profoundly moving and relatable episode, I sit down with Kate Watt, an intuitive, energy-led coach and founder of 22 Coaching. Kate bravely opens up about her personal journey of navigating abusive relationships, the challenges of single motherhood, and the profound "dark night of the soul" that ultimately led to her awakening. Instead of accepting the negative labels often associated with her late-in-life ADHD diagnosis, Kate chose to become a "detective" in her own life—exchanging harsh self-judgment for heartfelt curiosity. We dive deep into how she completely rebuilt her reality by understanding her energy, honouring her nervous system, and releasing the heavy burden of people-pleasing. In this episode, we explore:Radical Self-Acceptance: Why embracing our gifts is sometimes harder than accepting our flaws, and how to honour the many versions of ourselves. Healing Generational Trauma: The mind-blowing concept of epigenetics, and how doing our own healing work shifts our lineage both backwards and forwards. Neurodiversity as a Strength: Shifting from seeing ADHD as a deficit to designing a life that actively supports how your unique brain and body operate. Finding True Peace: Understanding that peace is an energetic state that can hold all of our messy, beautiful human emotions—even sadness—simultaneously. If you have ever felt like you were living on autopilot, struggling to find your true identity, or battling your own nervous system, this conversation is your permission slip to stop, get curious, and finally come home to yourself. Connect with Kate here: www.22coaching.co.ukhttps://www.22coaching.co.uk/align For your opportunity to win a LIVE coaching call with Josephine submit your 5star reviews on Spotify and Apple Music and send screen shots to [email protected] are announced on the 1st of every monthSupport the show

We talk about travelling in my RV all over the country, have guests, discuss different topics, and generally have fun. Published 6 days a week. Burn Wild BBC Radio 5 Live For more than a decade two mugshots of fugitive environmentalists have sat amongst airplane hijackers, bombers and murders on the FBI’s Most Wanted Domestic Terrorists list. One of the photos is of a tall, hipster looking engineer from Seattle. He’s wearing a red shirt, has a light shadowy beard. His name: Joseph Mahmoud Dibee. The other photo is of a young white woman with thick eyebrows, piercing brown eyes and long brown hair. Across her back is a large tattoo: a bird with its wings outstretched, soaring. Her name: Josephine Sunshine Overaker. To the authorities, Joseph Mahmoud Dibee and Josephine Sunshine Overaker are dangerous, violent extremists, part of an eco-terrorist movement that in 2005 the then Deputy Assistant Director of the FBI called the number one domestic terror threat in America. And now one of them - Joseph Dibee - has been caught. For the past eighteen months journalist Leah Sottile has been recording with Joe Dibee as his case progresses thro Best Nonsense Verses by Josephine Daskam Bacon Loyal Books From Lewis Carroll's Jabberwocky to limericks written by Anonymous, some of the crankiest, most logical and lyrical people turn common sense upside-down.
