What to do when πŸ’© hits the fan


I just finished my first real speaking event! But I almost didn't make it to stage...
​
The past 2 days I was out sick with an awful stomach bug.
​
I was pretty bummed because I had planned to host a live Identity Activation yesterday for 50 women, and I was worried I wouldn't feel ok for this speaking event.
​
Felt like everything was crashing at once.
Looping thoughts. Couldn't sleep.

My anxiety was on high alert.
​
I decided to surrender. What was meant to be, would be. ​
​
Before I went to bed, I prayed I'd wake up feeling better.
​
I tapped into the feeling of "it's already done", feeling like the event went so smoothly. I envisioned waking up with a fresh wave of energy.
​
And then it happened.
​
Today, I felt better just in time to show up to speak on the Career & Lifestyle Design Panel at Nomad Week in Cape Town.
​
The panel was a blast... and because I had to reschedule the event to Monday the 2nd, I got to invite every woman in the room building her soul-aligned business, brand, and life to attend my activation too!!
​
Win-win-win.
​
Life has a funny way of alwayyyys working out. Especially when you let go of your tight grip of controlling every step and surrender to the flow.
​
I share this to remind you:
​​
​
When it looks like things are falling apart, sometimes they're simply clicking together.​
​
​"This or something better"
​
Remember that next time πŸ’© hits the fan.
​

On Monday, I hosted a live identity activation experience for women ready to evolve rapidly in their business, career, and life in 2026. I talked for 90 minutes without any slides. That was a new edge for me. It was uncomfortable... until I tapped into my essence & everything started flowing. That tends to happen when you're sharing your truth.During this activation experience:>> I told the untold stories from my own quantum leap in 2025 & the many identity shifts I experienced over the past...

Today, I want to share something incredibly vulnerable with you. Because today is the 2-year anniversary of quitting my cushy $180K/year tech job to bet on myself with $0 guaranteed income. People have asked me over the years, "Katy, was it easy to quit your job." I laughed. HELL NO. It took delusion, faith, $50K cash saved up, 8 months building my personal brand, and a helluva lot of courage. The day before I officially quit, I wrote myself a letter. I wanted to capture exactly why I was...

I was playing with fire today. Literally. Using some matches for a video I'm making... (coming to TikTok soon) To demonstrate a problem I see all the time. Women dimming their light, burning out.Walking around extinguished rather than FULLY ALIVE. As a result, the world misses a whole lot of magic. It doesn't have to be this way. We can't just wait until Hilary Duff drops a new album to feel alive again (IYKYK). I've designed my life & business around what lights me up (the same way I teach...
