More with Katie K

This podcast was born from one of the most painful thresholds of my life, one that involved burnout, a health crisis and the moment I realised that I didn’t in fact ‘have it all’. I’m inviting us into an important question: what incredible things happen when you stop settling for a life that looks good on paper and start choosing one that feels alive - with the dreams and desires you haven’t claimed yet?I’m Katie Kolenberg, artist, mentor, entrepreneur, founder of The Creator Code and guide for women in thresholds. Through stories of heartbreak, epiphany and metamorphosis, we talk about what it means to listen deeply and trust the inner pulse to lead you through the thresholds of life by claiming more - more adventure, more love, more joy, more you. More is a love letter for fierce, intelligent and driven women who are ready to take up more space, unhinge themselves, embrace their weird and live the fuck out of their lives. </p

    9. Fill the Edges of Your Being

    I wasn't planning to record today. But something wanted to come through, and this is what arrived.Fresh back from Joshua Tree, one woman said something to me that made me burst into tears in a car: "You fill the edges of your being." This episode was born from that moment.We come into this world with limitless potential. Life buries it. Growth is the process of finding it again, of locating your edges, filling them, and discovering there's always more. More you. And for those of us standing at the threshold of midlife: we are not here to shrink. We're here to lead. To share our medicine. To take up more space, not less.Something big and new is coming in just a few days. It's my gift, my medicine, and it's what I needed when I needed it most.

    8. Two Small Moves and One Big One That Actually Moved the Needle

    Sometimes the smallest changes create the biggest shifts. And sometimes you have to make one massive leap to change everything.Fresh back from California with my high-level mastermind, I'm sharing the three moves that moved the needle in my life over the last 12 months: two small experiments that changed how I understand my own body, and one big scary decision that finally let me step into my real purpose.The two small moves:Coffee experiment: What happens when you stop drinking coffee on an empty stomach (hint: it's not about cortisol, it's about a hormone called adenosine that I'd never heard of.)Deodorant experiment: I stopped wearing deodorant six months ago and learned what I actually smell like (spoiler: women smell beautiful)The one big move:Business pivot: After six years of taking two steps forward and two steps back, I finally drew a line in the sand and stepped out of my full-time photography business roleHere's what I learned: Small moves build trust in yourself and uncover things you couldn't possibly see before. Big moves require massive amounts of grit, devotion, and inner resolve. Both are medicine.Ready to go deeper?I have a few spots left in my sacred 1:1 offering (The Breakthrough Sessions) at an introductory rate that will never be repeated.

    7. Sacred Desire & the Unforgettable F*ck Yes Life

The part of you that demands a life worth living, not just existing, but a life that makes you want to leap out of bed every morning. It's embodied, it's aligned with your truth, and it refuses to compromise.Here's what everyone gets wrong: they think one big thing will create their dream life. The perfect relationship, the dream job, the forever house. But you could get all of that tomorrow and still feel empty because the foundational pieces aren't in place.The real work happens in 5 areas and we break all of this down in this episode:How you love yourself (your inner dialogue, nourishment, movement)How much you listen to yourself and shape your life around what you hearYour willingness to expand your perspective (human design, astrology, alternative lenses)Your willingness to do the hard inner workWho and what you surround yourself withI'm sharing my own stories, including the $4700 decision that renovated my whole life, why ‘the grass is always greener’ is actually true, and how small lifestyle tweaks change everything and open doorways you couldn’t see before. Chapters:00:00 Introduction to Sacred Desire01:11 Understanding What Sacred Desire Is05:27 The 5 Foundations for Creating a Fuck Yes Life06:24 1.
