Admitting Our Fears: Grief, Loss and Being Seen

A Sam and Katie catch-up for the books! Katie takes a risk and drops the t-word (tarot) in a business meeting- and no one dies. That moment opens a bigger conversation with Sam about hiding vs over-explaining who we are, the weird social rewards of “the mask,” and why being fully seen still scares successful adults. We unpack soulmates, gratitude without the guilt trip, and the difference between micro-fears (new things, hard conversations) and the big ones (loss, death, being misunderstood). Then (of course) we pull cards and wrap it up by discussing the mental load and making more room for play.Show Notes:00:00 Welcome in; Katie said “tarot” in a business meeting…06:40 Fear of being fully seen: the risks and rewards15:20 Identities without career and relationships21:37 Soulmates and past lives32:36 Is stress optional?34:58 Gratitude and being grateful “enough”41:16 Can’t escape the bad46:10 The novelty rule47:20 Fear of loss58:00 Closing, cards, and can’t thank you enough for listening! CreditsHosted by: Samantha Blatz & Katie SuitersProduced by: Borderline Media Company (Scott Schafer, Greg Wolfson, Michael Brown, and Michael Peloquin)Music, editing & art by Borderline; additional vibes by the whole Under Coven crewSupport the Pod!- Subscribe, rate & review on YouTube, Spotify or Apple Podcasts.- Share this ep with a friend- Tag us on socials and follow along @undercovenpodcast
