Katrina's laying down some serious wisdom on how to patch up those relationships, especially the ones with our parents. But here's the twist—she's not saying we need to dig through every painful memory. Nope, it's all about dealing with what's happening right here, right now. Think meditation, visualizing, or even just reconnecting with our inner child. Katrina reminds us that progress isn't always pretty, but hey, it's progress nonetheless!

But here's the kicker: resilience. Katrina's big on bouncing back, no matter what life throws our way. And the best part? By choosing to heal, we're not just changing our own lives; we're rewriting the playbook for our families and society as a whole. So let's roll up our sleeves and get to work—it's time to break those cycles once and for all.

Today, we're diving into a juicy topic inspired by none other than the fabulous Brene Brown reel that's been making the rounds on Instagram. Joining Katrina is the wonderful Melanie Tingey, a leadership and personal development coach and host of the Embodied and Empowered Podcast. They're unpacking the idea that we're living in a culture of "fun, fast, and easy," where discomfort seems to be the last thing on anyone's agenda.

They kick things off by exploring why it's so darn tempting for people to avoid discomfort and opt for the path of least resistance. Melanie and Katrina chat about the difference between discomfort when it's aligned with your goals and values versus when it's not, and how that plays into your choices.

But here's the thing: They're not here to bash discomfort. In fact, they are flipping the script and embracing it! These ladies dive into the fear that often accompanies discomfort and what happens when we lean into it instead of shying away. Spoiler alert: growth, resilience, and some serious life lessons are involved!

And hey, sometimes we get so caught up in hustling and grinding that we forget to savor the journey. Melanie and Katrina discuss how important it is to strike a balance between doing the work and enjoying the process. After all, life's too short not to find joy in the journey, right?

In this episode, we take a bit of a walk down memory lane as Katrina shares about the journey of relaunching and rebranding as we return to the roots of the podcast, reclaiming its original name, "Just As We Are." She reflects on the evolution of the podcast since its inception, recalling pivotal moments, including an event in 2019 that marked the beginning of this venture.

As Katrina immersed herself in personal and professional growth over the years, there was a tendency to veer off course, influenced by external pressures to make the podcast bigger and better. However, within the pursuit of expansion and success, the true purpose behind who she was and what she wanted to put on the world got lost. 

Join us as we rediscover the heart and soul of the podcast, returning to the core values that sparked its creation.

On the show today we have a relationship coach Andre Paradis. He is breaking the beliefs people have around relationships and what it takes to actually build a relationship that is fulfilling and lasting. He shares how to build a healthy, fulfilling, long-term love relationship and how our cultural beliefs make love relationships harder than ever. Andre answers those questions, Why are love relationships seem so difficult now?Why do people get into push/pull relationships?What makes a love relationship last? Three things you must have to build a healthy, long-term relationship?

Andre has been studying people his entire life. Over a decade ago, he was compelled to teach his findings and knowledge to the masses for they kept asking him “why things seemed to be so hard or confusing” when dealing with relationships, people and life. Since his studies and understandings of Relationships dynamics is so vast, Andre’s knowledge expands across all types of subjects such as: - Love/Life relationships with Men and Women, (Regardless of gender and/or orientation) - Child Rearing (Married or single), - Workplace dynamic negotiations - Negotiating Wants and Needs - Effective Communication Strategies. Communication Tools and so on.

Often, relationships can seem to be a power struggle. The magic is to be fully aware of the energy mechanism in place in these dynamics and learn to negotiate the terms to reduce power friction. This truly is the basis of Andre’s work.
