My Foundations of Well Being

Thu, 30 Apr 2026 09:00:00 -0000

When I was younger I lived so much of life trying to become ‘the best version of myself’... and it actually seemed to make things worse. I struggled with how I viewed my body, I often got lost in comparison, and my relationships with myself and others suffered as a side effect.

Nowadays, I feel less reactive to the world around me. I’ve made peace with my body and food, and I’ve consciously built a life that feels intentional and aligned. Today I’m sharing the external, internal, and relational shifts I made over time to get to this beautiful space I’m so grateful to be in now.

Today on WithIn:

My daily external priorities: meditation, sobriety, sleep, and food
Learning to regulate your emotions while still making room to feel them
Removing the noise of comparison from your life
Intentionally balancing your energy
Accepting the truth that you will disappoint people in life - and that’s okay
Making room for a sense of purpose and meaning in your life

The Magic of Coming Home to Yourself: A Retreat Recap

Thu, 02 Apr 2026 09:00:00 -0000

I recently returned from our wonderful Clarity and Connection women’s retreat at Sansara in Panama. This year’s retreat felt divinely-led, and I could not be more grateful for the experience.

22 women joined me for a week-long experience of yoga, meditation, sound baths, incredible food, raw nature, and connection with self and each other. The women were all in different stages of life, but they had one thing in common: they were on a journey of coming home to themselves.

Today I’ll share why this retreat felt like it was orchestrated from above, and why hosting these events is so deeply meaningful to me.

Dancing With Your Upper Limit

Thu, 05 Feb 2026 17:58:00 -0000

In moments of transition and expansion it can be so easy to fall into patterns of self sabotage. This often occurs because you have hit your ‘upper limit’ - your internal subconscious temperature control that was created in your foundational years to keep you safe.

Expanding our upper limit is possible, but it requires grace, intention and self awareness. Today we’ll talk about what your upper limit is, how to notice if it is being activated, and how to move with it in a way that allows for your expansion.

Today on WithIn:

How to invite expansion into your life without getting in your own way.

Your Body is Speaking: How to Listen with Somatic Therapy with Beatriz Victoria Albina (From the Vault)

Thu, 29 Jan 2026 10:00:00 -0000

(This episode originally aired in summer 2025, and we're bringing it back because somatic work and nervous system regulation is so very important at this time)

“We are all just toddlers, but taller.” - Beatriz Victoria Albina

Somatic therapy is something that I’ve been really intrigued about in my own life, and before this conversation I didn’t quite understand it. My new friend Beatriz Victoria Albina has changed that. In today’s episode she’ll beautifully explain what somatic therapy is, and how it can help those of us who were socialized in ways that created perfectionist, co-dependent or people pleasing habits so that we can live life in a way that is kinder to our nervous systems.

Beatriz Victoria Albina is a Master Certified Somatic Life Coach, Nurse Practitioner, and has a Masters in Public Health. She is the host of the Feminist Wellness Podcast. Her new book, End Emotional Outsourcing: How to Overcome Codependent, Perfectionist and People Pleasing Habits comes out in September!

Today on WithIn:

How Béa’s work came to include a whole self approach, including functional medicine, the somatic nervous system and life coaching
Why you should make the shift from labeling triggers as ‘core wounds’ to ‘core wisdom’
How to ‘orient and ground’ in moments of trigger using somatic exercises
The importance of feeling your ‘sacred anger’
What is emotional outsourcing?

Beatriz has a special gift for listeners of this episode! Visit www.beatrizalbina.com/withinpod for a free suite of her inner child meditations and nervous system orienting tools.

What’s Helping Me Feel My Best, Physically and Mentally, at 46

Thu, 25 Sep 2025 09:00:00 -0000

“I pour into so many other people, but I think I had forgotten to pour into me.”

For the last year or so I thought I was doing fine. Sure, I had sleepless nights or more anxiety than I’d prefer…my skin was a little redder than I’d like.. but for the most part everything seemed basically ‘fine’. But when I got a chance to slow down for the summer, I began to reexamine my health and wellness. What I realized was that while I felt fine, I didn’t feel great.

I made some changes this summer in regards to my health and wellness and I must say I feel the best I’ve felt in a long time. Today I’ll share the shifts I made and what really is working for me in this season of life to feel my best.

Today on WithIn:

What I realized when I removed Instagram and made strict boundaries on screen time
Lowering the volume on wellness culture
Enjoying movement for the joy of it and not for a goal of changing my body
The power of prioritizing creativity
The changes I’ve noticed after two months of taking NAD
What has changed for me since I’ve been back in therapy

While I’m not an expert, I have deep lived experience - from heavy periods, to a myectomy, to a hysterectomy and hormone replacement therapy - and I have a lot of thoughts on the topic.

Today I’ll share what my journey in perimenopause has looked like, and why I believe that perimenopause is not a crisis, but an invitation to beautifully blossom into the second half of your life.

Today on WithIn:

The unexpected path I took to having a myomectomy and then later a hysterectomy
How my emotional landscape changed in the aftermath of my hysterectomy
How I recreated my connection to my womb space
Why I decided to pursue hormone replacement therapy post-hysterectomy despite my OB saying I ‘wasn’t a candidate’
The ‘art’ of finding the right hormone dosage: Hormones 101
How sobriety and lifestyle changes that have helped me through perimenopause
The gifts that perimenopause can bring into your life

Healing the Ache to Belong (with a Guided Meditation)

Thu, 12 Jun 2025 09:00:00 -0000

I’ve been experiencing a lot of transitions lately, and with those transitions I’ve been feeling a heightened sense of vulnerability around belonging. This feeling isn’t new for me. In fact, I’ve often struggled with feeling like I didn’t ‘belong’. The way I navigate these feelings has changed for the better, though, and today I’ll share how.

We’ll talk about the differences between belonging and fitting in, and how external validation pales in comparison to internal validation. Then, I’ll guide you through a short meditation you can use at any time to help you ground into yourself when the ache to belong becomes overwhelming.

Why the feeling of belonging seems so important
The difference between belonging and fitting in
Why internal validation and self-love are more important that external validation

“I can’t tell you how much joy it brings me to see people who are agents of change.” - Gaelle Dudley

Spirituality Beyond Religion: How I Found My Faith Outside of the Church

Thu, 24 Apr 2025 09:00:00 -0000

Throughout much of my life, the Catholic church served as a foundation. I was raised in the church, married in the church, and I always envisioned that I would raise my children in the church. Yet, life doesn’t always turn out the way we expect.

Today, I’ll share how my child’s journey with their identity led me to realize how my own views differed from the Catholic church’s teachings, and the moment it became clear that it was time to step away from the church. I’ll also share how my relationship with God has deepened since then, and how we now view faith as a family.

Ep. 18 | I’m Not Anti “Wellness”....Well, Maybe a Little

Thu, 06 Mar 2025 11:00:00 -0000

“We have more 'wellness' available to us than ever before. More wellness influencers, podcasts and books - yet I don’t know one woman who is truly well,”

Do you? Between the women I work with online, to the women in my real life, I don’t know anyone who isn’t struggling in some way, either physically or mentally. Yet we have more “wellness” available to us than ever before. Today on the show, I’m stepping back and asking the bigger question around wellness culture, why we’re not genuinely feeling well, and what we can do about it. You, me, and women everywhere are not broken, but the systems we’re living in are. It’s time for a liberation.

Today on WithIn:

The unexpected path I took to find myself within the wellness industry
How I came to realize that what I needed wasn’t more ‘wellness’
The paradox that the wellness industry sells us
How systems of oppression affect our wellness and how we can break free

WithIn Podcast | Trailer

Thu, 24 Oct 2024 13:27:09 -0000

Welcome to Within – a podcast where we empower women to break free from the unrealistic standards that keep us disconnected from our true selves. I'm Katie, and like many women, I’ve felt the invisible pressure to be anyone other than who I really am.

From body image to career, marriage, and motherhood, the message was clear: I wasn’t enough. But I believe there's a different way to live. In Within, we unravel the programming of perfectionism, shame, and overwhelm that so many of us carry. Together with thought leaders, experts, and everyday women, we explore what it means to reclaim our worth, shed the need for perfection, and live authentically.

If you're tired of the chase and ready to reimagine your life on your own terms, join me each week for raw, real conversations about mindful living, aging, sobriety, wellness, and more. The life you're longing for already exists within. It’s time to remember.
