05: Navigating Life’s Transitions: Insights from Kate

Welcome to the Pen & Heal Podcast. I'm Javeria Fatima Zaidi, your host and guide on this journey of self-discovery and personal growth.

 

In today's episode, I have the pleasure of conversing with Kate, a psychotherapist in training and a life coach, whose story and insights are both inspiring and enlightening. Kate shares her transition from being a physics teacher to embracing the world of psychotherapy and life coaching, highlighting the challenges and triumphs along the way.

 

We dive deep into the nuances of therapy versus coaching, discussing the unique ways they cater to individual needs, especially for highly sensitive people. Kate's journey through motherhood, the creation of her Circle Sessions during the COVID-19 pandemic, and her approach to holistic healing offer a wealth of knowledge and understanding.

 

As an expressive writing life coach myself, I find our discussion about the role of writing in personal development particularly close to my heart. We explore how active listening and creating safe spaces can empower individuals to embrace their sensitivity and navigate life's transitions with grace.

 

Whether you're navigating a life transition, or just seeking inspiration, this episode is for you.
