When the mask slips...
Bigger, Bolder, Braver
#53 This episode was inspired by an experience one of my clients had that got me thinking about what we permit when it serves our purposes, and how our permissiveness ends up creating or perpetuating the very culture that hurts. I ask us a few tricky questions here, and I invite you to listen with the willingness to not just point the finger at others, but to quietly dare to check your own heart- as I am doing - and see if you're willing to be honest about where you may have room to grow too. If you'd like to keep the conversation going, let's do that over on my socials @drkathrine. We keep...

'All that glitters'
Bigger, Bolder, Braver
#52 In our social media saturated world, how often are we seduced by well marketed products that press our buttons, make us feel inadequate, or rely on stoking our fears and insecurities to keep us hooked and buying what they're selling? How much have we lost the ability to look beyond the snazzy posts or the words that resonate, to consider the substance of what lies beneath and whether it is as 'glittery' as first appears? As a Christian who hears the same messages promising 'great wealth' from Christian enterpreneurs if I trust God, this 'glitter' looks an awful lot like what the rest...

Paralympics reflections
Bigger, Bolder, Braver
#51 - What a delight the Paris 2024 Olympics and Paralympics have been. So many incredible athletes, but I wanted to dedicate this episode to the Paralympics and use my voice - however stumbling it comes out - to champion these exceptional athletes, the new sports I learned about, and the inclusion and education I got through watching people whose lived experience I know nothing about go out there and perform extraordinary athletic feats. It was wonderful.

Creative Retirement
Bigger, Bolder, Braver
Listen in as I speak with inspirational new author Nell Dorée Townsend about her transition from a 20 year career in dog training, creatively continuing to share her knowledge but in a completely different way! About Nell: Not one to keep doing the same thing over and over, Nell’s life experiences have been varied. She started out as an Air Force officer and then took on the job of mom and teacher schooling her two boys for the duration (best decision ever). From there she continued with her teaching but with dogs and their people. Now, over twenty years later, she decided to teach...

Trained to be dependent
Bigger, Bolder, Braver
048 - Are you flying free... or in formation? This topic came up when I realised that a client I adore had been conditioned to do as she was told, instead of leaning in to what her gut knew would make her soul sing. That conditioning was shackling her, and once she was free, she was able to switch her business and live with greatly increased joy. If your 'success' feels constrictive and lacks soul-full joy, then we need to talk.

A Different Paradigm
Bigger, Bolder, Braver
47 - A Different Paradigm The whole way you're set up to work in this world right now sets you up for burnout. The paradigm you're operating in benefits from your inability to rest, your ceaseless productivity and is not built with your long term health nor well-being in mind. Over the past few years, as a Christian in business, I've been looking at whether my business actually is any different because of my faith, or whether it's perpetuating the same patterns and norms of the rest of the world. I got fed up looking at myself and others and not seeing anything that actually required God to...

The Burnout Catch 22
Bigger, Bolder, Braver
46 The Burnout Catch 22 There's something so insidious about a culture that applauds you when you're running yourself ragged and then turns around to critique you when you succumb to burnout. That's what I'm discussing in this episode. The culture is sick, but as individuals who make up culture- and particularly when we're the entrepreneurs and leaders- we in particular can get intentional with our lives to help reshape culture into a healthier shape. I have a free resource to help you flex your 'no' muscles without guilt. Get it here: If you'd like to learn more about the...

Style and Substance
Bigger, Bolder, Braver
#45 Style and Substance What criteria do you use to determine who you listen to? Do you care about substance or is it all about the externals and style? I've been asking myself what I REALLY do and how I want to decide who to give credence to, so here are some reflections that you might find useful for the decisions you have to make. In a world that idolises power, money and fame, how can we choose wisely? I'd love to hear your thoughts and what you want to add to this conversation, so come on over to social media where we can keep the conversation going: Facebook: Dr Kathrine Insta:...

My special guest for this episode is Megan Foster who is a business owner and a member of my Mastermind programme.
Megan is a dog agility coach, trainer, competitor and the founder of Synergy Dog Sports. Like me, she is passionate about looking at her clients in context, not just one small part of the puzzle on its own.
Megan joined my year-long Mastermind for 2021 because she says, "I had a bigger purpose calling me and I knew you were the woman to go to!" You can hear her explain in her own words what my Mastermind has been like for her.
