So if I'm walking around saying I don't want a
Kate Harlow:relationship ever again, I'm done with relationships. We are
Kate Harlow:complete. I'm guarded. There are walls around my heart, and I'm
Kate Harlow:also projecting into the future what I how
Kate Harlow:your experiences, through your ruptures, through your pain,
Kate Harlow:through your pleasure, through your joy, through every
Kate Harlow:connection you meet. Life is happening through you, not to
Kate Harlow:you, not for you, but through you is it's a co creation of
Kate Harlow:whatever your soul is meant to experience. And I've talked
Kate Harlow:about this a million times, but like
Kate Harlow:much greater intelligence than your mind will ever have as to
Kate Harlow:what is meant for you and what you're meant to experience. And
Kate Harlow:every new relationship that we attract is an opportunity to
Kate Harlow:grow more into who we are, as long as we're self aware and
Kate Harlow:bringing the new paradigm into relationship.
Kate Harlow:Hello, beautiful. I hope you are enjoying the start to the new
Kate Harlow:year 2026 although I was talking to my friend about New Year's
Kate Harlow:the other day, and it's so funny, it's like such a weird
Kate Harlow:time to have to be in the energy of starting anew. The astrology
Kate Harlow:New Year is a lot is, is when the spring equinox is, and that
Kate Harlow:makes so much more sense to me, because the energy we focus on
Kate Harlow:for New Year's is all about like creating new things and new
Kate Harlow:energy and growing and changing and evolving, which is, it's
Kate Harlow:nice to have these little touch points in throughout the year to
Kate Harlow:to actually be really intentional with how we're
Kate Harlow:showing up, to check in, to see if we're, you know, showing up
Kate Harlow:in in ways that are in alignment with how we want to be showing
Kate Harlow:up. Are we growing? Are we are we evolving? Are we staying
Kate Harlow:stuck? So I think, I do think it's nice to have these little
Kate Harlow:touch points, but I feel like the big, big New Year really
Kate Harlow:should be the spring equinox, because every that's like when
Kate Harlow:there's life force energy. I suppose this is the spring Well,
Kate Harlow:it's maybe a better time of year in the southern hemisphere,
Kate Harlow:which technically I'm in the southern hemisphere right now.
Kate Harlow:But the spring energy, the beautiful, powerful energy of
Kate Harlow:spring, is such an amazing time to actually create new things
Kate Harlow:and new beginnings and and winter, for those of you that
Kate Harlow:are in winter is such a yin time. It's such a it's such an
Kate Harlow:internal time. So whatever is going on right now, wherever you
Kate Harlow:are in the world, if you are in winter and it's dark and it's
Kate Harlow:cold, let yourself percolate. Let yourself be in pleasure and
Kate Harlow:self love and self care, like maybe this is the time to go
Kate Harlow:inward and actually take care of yourself. That is setting you up
Kate Harlow:for when we go to the Chinese New Year, which is in mid Feb,
Kate Harlow:and then to the astrology New Year, which is mid March, and
Kate Harlow:start to build the energy for you to get back into that more
Kate Harlow:Yang creation, action oriented energy. Just wanted to touch on
Kate Harlow:that first, but it's so wild. How fast time is going right
Kate Harlow:now? Are you feeling it? I'm feeling it a lot. I know they
Kate Harlow:say astrologically, things are moving faster. So we are in a
Kate Harlow:time where, even though I know they also say, as you get older,
Kate Harlow:time goes by faster, but astrologically, the world is
Kate Harlow:moving faster, the time is moving faster. But also time's
Kate Harlow:an illusion. So I would say, you know, if you're feeling my
Kate Harlow:practice with time, and feeling like time is going fast, is to
Kate Harlow:slow down, because if time's an illusion, and I am, you know,
Kate Harlow:rushing, and I have this never ending to do list, and every day
Kate Harlow:is just a series of checking boxes and trying to get through
Kate Harlow:to the end of the day, only to do it again tomorrow, probably
Kate Harlow:time is going to be going by a lot faster. And also, we're not
Kate Harlow:treasuring the time. We're not treasuring this moment and this
Kate Harlow:experience. And I feel like that is the most important gift of
Kate Harlow:all, is to be able to be present in our lives, and to be present
Kate Harlow:and paying attention to what are we doing with our time? And am I
Kate Harlow:doing things that matter to me? Am I making an impact? You know,
Kate Harlow:we just did three episodes in a row around purpose is the work
Kate Harlow:I'm doing in the world meaningful to me? Do I care
Kate Harlow:about what I'm doing? Do I have passions? Am I pouring my heart
Kate Harlow:into things that I love? Because if you're spending your time
Kate Harlow:doing things you love, even if time is going faster and we get
Kate Harlow:to the end of our lives sooner, at least, you spent your time
Kate Harlow:doing what you love. So it's a little bonus, just thinking
Kate Harlow:about that. This morning, I'm about to go on a little
Kate Harlow:spontaneous trip. I got a phone call at 9pm last night from my
Kate Harlow:dear Soul Sister Rose asking me to go on a. Little trip with her
Kate Harlow:and her partner, because he's going to the coast for work, and
Kate Harlow:apparently the coast of Kenya is incredibly beautiful, white
Kate Harlow:sand, turquoise waters. I'll post it on my Instagram, so make
Kate Harlow:sure you check it out, although I guess when this episode comes
Kate Harlow:out, I'll already be back in Nairobi, but I'm just going on a
Kate Harlow:little spontaneous trip. I am back in Nairobi when I'm
Kate Harlow:recording this episode, but just going on a very last minute
Kate Harlow:getting on airplane and going to the coast. I've never been to
Kate Harlow:the coast of Kenya, and I'm definitely excited to take as
Kate Harlow:many opportunities as I can, to to to explore this beautiful
Kate Harlow:country, but also, again, to, like, make my time matter, do
Kate Harlow:something that actually feels important. So I'm super excited
Kate Harlow:for that, and I thought I would just record this episode before
Kate Harlow:I go catch my flight, because this is a conversation that I've
Kate Harlow:heard, that I hear over and over again. Haven't, haven't talked
Kate Harlow:about love in a in a little while, we've been focusing on
Kate Harlow:the holidays, and we've been focusing on purpose, but
Kate Harlow:circling back to the favorite topic of the new the new truth,
Kate Harlow:which is love, dating relationships, and this is such
Kate Harlow:a common thing, the risk of putting your love life on hold,
Kate Harlow:or when you've given up on love and you just want to throw the
Kate Harlow:baby out with the bath water. What sparked this original
Kate Harlow:episode? Or what sparked this episode? I was actually going to
Kate Harlow:record it in the fall, and there's just there's just been
Kate Harlow:so many other topics and interviews and everything. So
Kate Harlow:it's coming out now is I had a Kenyan friend of mine over at my
Kate Harlow:cottage, and she brought her sister with her, and they're
Kate Harlow:amazing, powerful, beautiful women. And her sister was
Kate Harlow:telling me about her love life and just saying, Yeah, I'm just
Kate Harlow:dating for fun, you know, just playing around. But I left my my
Kate Harlow:husband, I think he was unfaithful, and she just said, I
Kate Harlow:am absolutely not open to ever having a relationship again.
Kate Harlow:Now, this woman was like 35 or maybe 30, maybe not even. And,
Kate Harlow:you know, it's such an interesting thing that people
Kate Harlow:say all the time. I also have a male friend who's going through
Kate Harlow:divorce, and he said almost the same thing. He's like, I'm I'm
Kate Harlow:just gonna be free forever. I'm gonna be single. I don't have
Kate Harlow:any interest in being in a relationship again. So there's
Kate Harlow:multiple things happening here that I want to unpack. First
Kate Harlow:off, we are projecting what we believe relationship to be after
Kate Harlow:we've been hurt, what happens is we project that past hurt, or if
Kate Harlow:we've been maybe we haven't been hurt like, I think of my male
Kate Harlow:friend, it's not that he was hurt, but but that he was more
Kate Harlow:just stifled, right, in an old paradigm relationship, that that
Kate Harlow:was set up in a way that, you know, married with kids and and,
Kate Harlow:You know, things had to be a certain way. And he did, made a
Kate Harlow:lot of choices from obligation. So now he affiliates
Kate Harlow:relationships with obligation and doing things you don't want
Kate Harlow:to do, and being responsible for other people and having no
Kate Harlow:capacity for yourself and putting everyone else before
Kate Harlow:you, because that's what he would do in his marriage, and
Kate Harlow:then flip to the the woman she was hurt and she was quote,
Kate Harlow:unquote betrayed, and she had dishonesty in her relationship,
Kate Harlow:and all of these things. So both of these people are projecting
Kate Harlow:their past pain and their past struggles with relationships,
Kate Harlow:and remember, most people are in the old paradigm of
Kate Harlow:relationship, which is actually codependency, right? Most
Kate Harlow:relationships are codependent, most but I mean, people don't
Kate Harlow:even know that this is true. Most people, even therapists,
Kate Harlow:don't even know, for the most part, that that the old
Kate Harlow:relationship model we have been
Kate Harlow:taught that we have learned in school is codependent. It's like
Kate Harlow:you're responsible for how I feel. You're responsible for
Kate Harlow:meeting my needs. In the beginning, you make me feel
Kate Harlow:amazing. Later on, you make me feel horrible. You You have to
Kate Harlow:make me feel attractive. You have to make me feel beautiful.
Kate Harlow:You have to make me feel important. That's a Wounded
Kate Harlow:Little kid. You have to make me feel prioritized, right? If you
Kate Harlow:are in relationship, looking to get your needs met, that is a
Kate Harlow:wounded little girl who actually needs your heroine. In my work,
Kate Harlow:your heroine, she needs the sovereign woman to meet her
Kate Harlow:needs, not a man, not a partner. And so if you have been in the
Kate Harlow:old paradigm and you're now sitting in the story of, I never
Kate Harlow:want love again, you've put love on hold. You're never going to
Kate Harlow:date again. You're shut down from it altogether, whatever the
Kate Harlow:story is, you are projecting your past experiences onto the
Kate Harlow:present moment. But what if something else was available to
Kate Harlow:you? What if there's a new type of relationship that you've
Kate Harlow:never experienced before that is available to you? I can assure
Kate Harlow:you of this. The deeper you go into your loving relationship
Kate Harlow:with yourself, the deeper you go on this journey. If you're on a
Kate Harlow:journey with me or with any other teachers, mentors. Guides
Kate Harlow:or coaches that are helping you come home to yourself, that are
Kate Harlow:helping you love yourself, that are helping you create a life
Kate Harlow:you love. The deeper you go into that, the more you will be able
Kate Harlow:to create a new paradigm type of relationship, which not many
Kate Harlow:people on planet Earth have. So the new paradigm of relationship
Kate Harlow:looks like this. It looks like we only get into relationship
Kate Harlow:because this relationship expands us. Expanded love
Kate Harlow:method, that's my entire coaching method, the saboteur
Kate Harlow:and heroin and unlocking the truth of who you are is based on
Kate Harlow:expansion. Does this relationship make my life
Kate Harlow:bigger? Does it make it better? Does it make it richer, more
Kate Harlow:meaningful, more intimate, more beautiful? Most people's
Kate Harlow:relationships actually make their lives smaller. You might
Kate Harlow:think it makes it better because it's like, oh, it's more
Kate Harlow:efficient. We're sharing rent, we're sharing a home, we're
Kate Harlow:sharing a bed, we're sharing and it might seem like, oh, it's
Kate Harlow:really efficient. It's making my life better. But are you still
Kate Harlow:taking responsibility for yourself in that relationship?
Kate Harlow:Are you growing? Are you evolving? Are you seeing your
Kate Harlow:partner with new eyes every day and allowing them to grow and
Kate Harlow:evolve as they grow and evolve like what kind of relationship
Kate Harlow:are you creating? Do you have open, honest communication? Do
Kate Harlow:you own your pain? You know, there's so many episodes about
Kate Harlow:how to navigate triggers that there's an amazing one from the
Kate Harlow:holidays. I've been hearing lots of great reviews about that
Kate Harlow:episode. So if you haven't heard it, go back to it. But are you
Kate Harlow:owning your triggers, or are you projecting your pain all over
Kate Harlow:your partner and making them responsible for you? Are you
Kate Harlow:owning your pleasure, or are you projecting the pain of the lack
Kate Harlow:of pleasure you feel onto your partner, making them responsible
Kate Harlow:for you? Right? Of course, you're not going to want another
Kate Harlow:relationship if you're thinking every single relationship is
Kate Harlow:going to be the same as the last. If you're not taking
Kate Harlow:responsibility for your patterns, then yeah, you will
Kate Harlow:attract a similar relationship in the future, and that will not
Kate Harlow:feel good, right? But here's the thing, you're not a victim
Kate Harlow:anymore. So we spend our lives in such victim mentality of
Kate Harlow:like, as if we have no control over anything, like, Oh, I'm
Kate Harlow:never going to be in a relationship again, because
Kate Harlow:Relationships are hard, and then we blame the relationship. Like,
Kate Harlow:why don't you just show up inside of the relationship? And
Kate Harlow:for now, if you're single, show up inside of your friendships in
Kate Harlow:a new way. Show up inside of your relationship with your
Kate Harlow:children or your ex or your whoever you're navigating your
Kate Harlow:colleagues, learn how to transform how you do
Kate Harlow:relationship, so that you're in the driver's seat so you don't
Kate Harlow:have to blame relationships forever and ever, and close down
Kate Harlow:a massive part of who you are, and a Beautiful opportunity to
Kate Harlow:grow and an amazing opportunity to to, you know, I think, like
Kate Harlow:love is, is why we're here. That's why we're here, not just
Kate Harlow:romantic love, but romantic love is incredible when we know how
Kate Harlow:to do it, right? The problem is, most people are out there in
Kate Harlow:relationship, trained by the old paradigm, trained by the
Kate Harlow:codependent model, right? That was taught by the fairy tale
Kate Harlow:that someone's going to sweep us off our feet. They're going to
Kate Harlow:rescue us from our tower. They're going to awaken us from
Kate Harlow:our coma Sleeping Beauty. They're going to they're going
Kate Harlow:to save us from our lives and from our misery and from our
Kate Harlow:anxiety and our sadness and our depression, and one day, they're
Kate Harlow:going to make us feel amazing, and then when we get married and
Kate Harlow:mimic the fairy tale fantasy and create this extraordinary,
Kate Harlow:perfect wedding, and then we create a build a family with
Kate Harlow:them and create a life. And it doesn't work out. We're gonna
Kate Harlow:blame relationships. We're gonna blame relationships forever.
Kate Harlow:We're gonna blame we're gonna project that that is the only
Kate Harlow:option, and we are going to shut down a part, a huge part, of who
Kate Harlow:we are. Now I'm not saying you have to be in relationship. This
Kate Harlow:isn't about relationship thing, the be all and end all. Of
Kate Harlow:course, I have lots of episodes that are the opposite of this,
Kate Harlow:that this is not what it's about. It's about are you taking
Kate Harlow:responsibility for how you're doing anything right, how you're
Kate Harlow:engaging with everything. Are you just blaming relationships
Kate Harlow:and marriages and men or women or whoever you're dating and
Kate Harlow:just shutting that out of your life and then missing out on so
Kate Harlow:much beauty that you could be experiencing if you were open to
Kate Harlow:it? Because here's the thing, you're not in charge of your
Kate Harlow:life. You you are if you're in your saboteur, and then your
Kate Harlow:life is actually not the life that's meant for you, right? We
Kate Harlow:have two options in this life. We can choose to create, co
Kate Harlow:create, a magical existence, a beautiful. Unscripted path that
Kate Harlow:is made for our soul, that will evolve us and grow us, and that
Kate Harlow:every single experience we have is part of that evolution and
Kate Harlow:part of the becoming, and part of the reclaiming and the
Kate Harlow:uncovering, all of the magic that's inside of your own soul
Kate Harlow:and that's available on this planet.
Kate Harlow:That's an option. It's the soul led life, and that's the life
Kate Harlow:that I live. That's the life that all my clients live. The
Kate Harlow:soul led life is so good because you don't, you're not, you're
Kate Harlow:not like, I need a relationship, but you're not like, I'm shut
Kate Harlow:down from a relationship. There's a soft, beautiful place
Kate Harlow:in the middle where you're just enjoying your life. And when
Kate Harlow:love comes around, you're open to it, you're not resistant to
Kate Harlow:it, and you you're in relationship with your patterns
Kate Harlow:as they arise, because they will, right? But if you don't
Kate Harlow:know your patterns, and you're not aware of your patterns, then
Kate Harlow:the then the patterns take over, and then we blame relationships.
Kate Harlow:So the option is the soul led life, or the scripted life. And
Kate Harlow:the scripted life is where you feel like you got to control it,
Kate Harlow:like as if you have to put out a statement to the universe, I'm
Kate Harlow:not open to relationships. You tell everyone I don't need a
Kate Harlow:man. I'm done with relationships. I'm putting that
Kate Harlow:on hold. I'm never doing that again. What are you doing?
Kate Harlow:You're literally just painting the past over the present moment
Kate Harlow:and your future, and you haven't even met your future self yet.
Kate Harlow:And what if your words matter? What if life is listening and
Kate Harlow:life is like, okay? You want to control your path, okay? You
Kate Harlow:want to choose the man that doesn't feel good to be in
Kate Harlow:relationship with and just stay and be miserable for the rest of
Kate Harlow:your life. Okay? You want to blame relationships and shut
Kate Harlow:down from your heart and your intimacy and your sensuality
Kate Harlow:forever and just live a life that's all workaholism and and,
Kate Harlow:you know, disconnection and man hating, okay, the universe is
Kate Harlow:like, go ahead. I don't think it's offended. I don't think the
Kate Harlow:universe is attached to what which choice you make, but just
Kate Harlow:know that it's a choice, right? If you think you know how this
Kate Harlow:story is going to go, just know that's your guarding talking. If
Kate Harlow:you've decided and it's the same on the other side of the the
Kate Harlow:flip side of the coin is the same thing, right if you're a
Kate Harlow:single woman, desperately longing for a relationship and
Kate Harlow:needing one right now, and wanting a husband and needing it
Kate Harlow:and trying to find it, it's the same thing. You are trying to
Kate Harlow:control your future based on someone else's story of what
Kate Harlow:your life is supposed to look like. How do I know that?
Kate Harlow:Because the life that's meant for you. A I've said this before
Kate Harlow:that. David J white quote, you cannot see the path. You can you
Kate Harlow:can have soul desires. You can have feelings in your body, of
Kate Harlow:like things you want to experience in your body, but
Kate Harlow:when you are trying to control your path and what your life
Kate Harlow:looks like now, like shutting love out or being obsessed with
Kate Harlow:having it you're missing right now. And right now is a part of
Kate Harlow:your story, right we throw the baby out with the bath water.
Kate Harlow:Right now is a part of your story, and it's a beautiful
Kate Harlow:part. And the heart led life, which is living from your
Kate Harlow:heroine, the soul led life, the heart led life. That is the life
Kate Harlow:that is made for every single one of us. But unfortunately,
Kate Harlow:not a lot of people are living from this place when you're
Kate Harlow:truly rooted in who you are, your home in your body, your
Kate Harlow:home in your heart, your home in your soul. The Heart led life is
Kate Harlow:about being with what you're experiencing right now, and
Kate Harlow:being open to everything you have no idea where life will
Kate Harlow:lead you and if your controlled mind and all of these
Kate Harlow:preconceived notions and stories and scripts of of who you're
Kate Harlow:supposed to date, what relationships are supposed to
Kate Harlow:look like, what I think Like, what I'm attracted to right now.
Kate Harlow:I've never been attracted to in my life when in a man like the
Kate Harlow:qualities and what matters to me now have nothing to do with the
Kate Harlow:the checklist or this the the story of what I thought I wanted
Kate Harlow:in relationship before, because I'm just engaging with me right
Kate Harlow:now, and with my life right now, my heart is so open, and I'm
Kate Harlow:noticing what I'm attracted to the most is energy. If I feel an
Kate Harlow:energetic connection with someone, even in friendships,
Kate Harlow:that's when and the energy just flows. And it's this beautiful
Kate Harlow:reciprocal energy that's what I'm attracted to. It's not about
Kate Harlow:where they come from, what they look like, what they what
Kate Harlow:they're, what they do for a living, how much money they
Kate Harlow:make. None of that stuff matters anymore, because I'm sovereign.
Kate Harlow:I make my own money. I have my own my own life, my own world. I
Kate Harlow:take responsibility fully for myself. I'm not looking for some
Kate Harlow:perfect. Paper partner to fill something I'm engaging with,
Kate Harlow:what I'm attracted to in life, and that goes for experiences,
Kate Harlow:too. I'm about to go on a journey to the coast. Yeah, I
Kate Harlow:did, and I am so excited. It was not even on my radar. But a week
Kate Harlow:ago, I wasn't looking for a trip to the coast. I met someone at
Kate Harlow:Ola pangi who was going, who was going to the coast, and she
Kate Harlow:lives in Nairobi. She and her mom were on their way, and
Kate Harlow:actually think they were going to the same place that we're
Kate Harlow:going. And she said, Oh my gosh, Kate, you're gonna love the
Kate Harlow:coast. It's so beautiful there. It's really hot right now, but
Kate Harlow:it's so beautiful. The water is like a warm bath. It's
Kate Harlow:incredible. And I was like, Oh my gosh, cool. And I felt this
Kate Harlow:little spark. And I was like, I wonder when I'll go I'm gonna
Kate Harlow:I'm not going to be in Nairobi long enough to plan a trip to
Kate Harlow:the coast, because I'm back and forth between here and Ola
Kate Harlow:pangi, and then I'm going to Greece, and then I'm going to
Kate Harlow:Canada. So I just thought maybe I'll go, like, next year. I
Kate Harlow:guess I'm not going to have time this year. That was one week
Kate Harlow:ago, and here I am going to the coast. So that's the magic of
Kate Harlow:life, right? So, so my and when, when I got the invitation to go,
Kate Harlow:even though I had to make the decision last minute, my heart
Kate Harlow:was such a yes. It was just like the feeling of having this
Kate Harlow:experience was such a yes and a yes for right now, right? So
Kate Harlow:this is like with love. Let it when you live from your heart,
Kate Harlow:there's an openness to all energetic connections, but we
Kate Harlow:don't need to make a meaning of where it's going and if it's not
Kate Harlow:going, Oh, I'm not open to a relationship or this person
Kate Harlow:needs to be my partner. You see how we're constantly projecting
Kate Harlow:onto the thing, as opposed to just being present with the
Kate Harlow:experience this my loves will change your whole life when you
Kate Harlow:can learn to just be present with what you feel and to let
Kate Harlow:yourself be expanded and have expansive moments, and to let
Kate Harlow:yourself create a life that expands you so that that becomes
Kate Harlow:your normal, right? We only get sideswiped by fantasy, fairy
Kate Harlow:tale love and some like, some hope of like, Oh, here he is.
Kate Harlow:He's arrived, and now I'm going to be rescued when we're not
Kate Harlow:when our life isn't expanded, like, if your life is dull and
Kate Harlow:mundane and boring and scripted and predictable and empty and
Kate Harlow:disconnected and numb, of course, you're going to get
Kate Harlow:sideswiped by the idea of some Prince rescuing you on a white
Kate Harlow:horse, of course, right? But when your life is amazing, and
Kate Harlow:you feel so good in your body, and your devotion is to taking
Kate Harlow:care of yourself and feeling good in every possible way,
Kate Harlow:physically, spiritually, emotionally, mentally, all the
Kate Harlow:ways. Like, if that's your life, and you have designed a life of
Kate Harlow:pleasure, you're not going to need to close to love, and
Kate Harlow:you're also not going to be so attached to it, right? There's a
Kate Harlow:beautiful place in the middle where you're just living from
Kate Harlow:the heart, and you just are following your yeses in the
Kate Harlow:moment and trusting that life has a greater plan. And every
Kate Harlow:time you forget that life has a greater plan for you than your
Kate Harlow:mind ever could. Just say thank you giving this to you like.
Kate Harlow:Let's say you you meet someone you really like, and your
Kate Harlow:saboteur wants to shut down and run, I'm not open to love. Or
Kate Harlow:your saboteur wants to chase them and grab on and, you know,
Kate Harlow:get win them over.
Kate Harlow:Those are the moments where you come back to the present moment.
Kate Harlow:Feel your feet on the ground, take a breath. Do some somatic
Kate Harlow:re reconnecting to your own body, to your Soma, and then
Kate Harlow:saying to the universe, thank you so much for taking this I
Kate Harlow:know you've got it. I know your plan. I feel really amazing in
Kate Harlow:this moment at this potential job, or this potential love, or
Kate Harlow:whatever the thing might be, or I feel terrified of it. Whatever
Kate Harlow:your story is, you give it to the universe and you say, or the
Kate Harlow:divine, or God, or whoever you want to call, it doesn't matter.
Kate Harlow:It's just they're just names. You choose the name that feels
Kate Harlow:the best. You give it to the universe, and you say, Thank you
Kate Harlow:for taking this because the reality is, every time you're in
Kate Harlow:fear of your future, you are suffering, and all that means is
Kate Harlow:you're disconnected from your divinity. Every time you're in
Kate Harlow:fear of the future or you're questioning the past, you are
Kate Harlow:disconnected from your divinity because the reality is the
Kate Harlow:divine part of you knows that it's all perfect, all of it,
Kate Harlow:every mess, every challenge, every heartbreak, it's all
Kate Harlow:perfect. This is exactly how your life is supposed to go,
Kate Harlow:even if your life is in the script, in the script,
Kate Harlow:controlling life, controlling life. And then one day, Kate
Kate Harlow:says something on the podcast, or I read a book and I and that
Kate Harlow:one line hits me so hard, or I go on this retreat, or I. Have a
Kate Harlow:moment in the bath, or whatever the whatever your turning point
Kate Harlow:moment might be. One day, there's a moment where you stop
Kate Harlow:believing the script, and you stop trying to control your
Kate Harlow:life, and you stop painting a horror story onto every future
Kate Harlow:potential relationship you've ever had, and you actually allow
Kate Harlow:what comes to you to be there so you can grow and evolve and
Kate Harlow:learn. One moment will change everything for you. And
Kate Harlow:sometimes it's many moments. Usually it's many, many moments.
Kate Harlow:It's like the seeds have been planted, and then one day that
Kate Harlow:garden starts to bloom, and you're like, oh my god, I get
Kate Harlow:it. Whoa. I get it. I was a victim, being passive to
Kate Harlow:relationships, blaming relationships and thinking every
Kate Harlow:future relationship is going to be the same, because I have no
Kate Harlow:choice. You have all the choice in the world my loves. You can
Kate Harlow:learn about your saboteur patterns. You can learn about
Kate Harlow:what part you contributed to that relationship that didn't
Kate Harlow:feel good, even if on paper, it looks like your partner was way
Kate Harlow:worse than you, even if they betrayed you, they hurt you. It
Kate Harlow:was toxic. What was your part? You played a part, right? If you
Kate Harlow:were in a toxic relationship, were you self sacrificing? Were
Kate Harlow:you shape shifting? Were you ignoring all of those horrible
Kate Harlow:gut feelings that were screaming at you? What is your part, and
Kate Harlow:that is right now, instead of just staying in some limited,
Kate Harlow:ridiculous story that love is not for you and you're never
Kate Harlow:going to have it again. Like, how much time do you spend
Kate Harlow:feeding these stupid stories that just keep robbing you from
Kate Harlow:your life versus being with like, Okay, I'm on my own right
Kate Harlow:now. I'm going to get really intimate with myself. Join us in
Kate Harlow:the reclamation. Join me on the heroin journey of uncovering and
Kate Harlow:unlocking all of who you are. Like go work with someone and
Kate Harlow:actually use this time to devote yourself to understanding your
Kate Harlow:patterns really intimately and deeply, and use this time to
Kate Harlow:awaken who you really are and unlock all of those repressed
Kate Harlow:parts of you. So the next time love does come knocking on your
Kate Harlow:door, you're not afraid of it. You're not looking for it to
Kate Harlow:save you. You're not obsessed with it. You're not shut down
Kate Harlow:from it. You're not sacrificing for it, right? That's all
Kate Harlow:saboteur patterns, like something else is possible, and
Kate Harlow:I've witnessed heroin after heroin after heroin. Women work
Kate Harlow:with me have the most horrible relationships prior to the
Kate Harlow:journey of unlocking all of who they are and untethering from
Kate Harlow:their saboteur conditioned self, attract relationships and and
Kate Harlow:and, or even I think of a woman I'm, I've, I'm working with
Kate Harlow:right now, who is married and has been married for years, has
Kate Harlow:two children, and they have their relationship is better now
Kate Harlow:than ever, like it's a whole new relationship. This is what's
Kate Harlow:available to you. You when you stop blaming relationships, you
Kate Harlow:stop blaming men, you stop blaming being single, you stop
Kate Harlow:blaming being married, you stop blaming all of these
Kate Harlow:circumstances outside of you, and you learn about your
Kate Harlow:blueprint and how you've been doing relationships in the past,
Kate Harlow:and how you can alchemize those protective mechanisms and start
Kate Harlow:to live from the truth of who you are, you get to experience
Kate Harlow:the new paradigm of relationship, which, prior to
Kate Harlow:this moment, didn't exist for you, right? It's such a limited
Kate Harlow:perspective to sit back and just blame relationships and blame
Kate Harlow:other people like you are absolutely powerless, but you're
Kate Harlow:also missing a huge part of who you are. You are missing the
Kate Harlow:magic that you can experience and the love and the beauty from
Kate Harlow:deepening an intimacy with someone, even if it only lasts
Kate Harlow:for three weeks, even if it only lasts for three months or three
Kate Harlow:years. I don't know why I'm stuck on threes today, but no
Kate Harlow:matter how long this relationship lasts, if you
Kate Harlow:attract one, it's a gift, because it's an opportunity for
Kate Harlow:you to grow, and there's something there for you.
Kate Harlow:So let's rewrite the story like it's time to become the heroine
Kate Harlow:of your own life. The world is changing. Systems are crumbling.
Kate Harlow:They were in the age of Aquarian, which is all about
Kate Harlow:big, dreaming, big, thinking, living, big. You know, this is
Kate Harlow:time is flying by. Your life is so precious. Every moment is
Kate Harlow:precious. Why don't you stop projecting the past onto the
Kate Harlow:future? Stop thinking you know how this story is going to go
Kate Harlow:stop wasting your time in all of these stories that aren't true,
Kate Harlow:that are limited, that are hurting you, that are keeping
Kate Harlow:you suffering, and come back to your Divine Self. Come back to
Kate Harlow:your heroine, where you get to create a new story. You get to
Kate Harlow:not be a victim of the past. You get to create. Create a new
Kate Harlow:story and and not walk through life with guards. Because my
Kate Harlow:love, even though you think your guards are in reaction to your
Kate Harlow:ex and that, you know, like I'm gonna block love forever because
Kate Harlow:I was hurt by a man, and I'm gonna block every man on planet
Kate Harlow:Earth, you think that's, you know, harming someone, if you
Kate Harlow:only person it's harming is you. You know you've heard that
Kate Harlow:statement. Holding on to resentment is like drinking
Kate Harlow:poison and expecting the other person to die. Like you're not
Kate Harlow:actually hurting the other people. You're hurting yourself
Kate Harlow:because you're walking through the world with guards up. You
Kate Harlow:can walk through the world with your heart open. Your heart
Kate Harlow:doesn't ever need protection. I will tell you this your mind
Kate Harlow:might tell you otherwise, you never need to protect yourself.
Kate Harlow:You need to know how to speak your truth, how to say no when
Kate Harlow:it's a no and yes when it's a yes, lovingly, you need to know
Kate Harlow:how to stand firmly and rooted in you and how to listen to your
Kate Harlow:own inner compass, rather than everyone else's opinion of what
Kate Harlow:your life is supposed to be, or who you should be, or what you
Kate Harlow:should do. But you don't need guards. The protection is only
Kate Harlow:hurting you. It's not helping you. It's not serving you in any
Kate Harlow:way. So when you want to give up on love, just know that that
Kate Harlow:means you're giving up on a huge part of who you are. Instead,
Kate Harlow:make your life like. Create a life of love. Create a life of
Kate Harlow:love like, let's like, reclaim that word. That word is not just
Kate Harlow:about some person that you share a bed with. Love is who you are.
Kate Harlow:Love is the life that's available to you. You can create
Kate Harlow:a life that you love, where you actually love every person in
Kate Harlow:your life deeply you don't. You're not in stories of blame
Kate Harlow:or resentment or whatever, but you're only surrounded by people
Kate Harlow:who you feel expanded by. You're only you know, spending time and
Kate Harlow:if you're not expanded by someone that you again take
Kate Harlow:responsibility and look in the mirror and own your own part and
Kate Harlow:take the medicine and the lesson from this person who's
Kate Harlow:activating you so that you're not just stuck in some victim
Kate Harlow:story that that you blame your sister in law, you blame your
Kate Harlow:your your mom, or you blame your ex husband, like if you're If
Kate Harlow:you're blaming anyone for your pain, and you're keeping this
Kate Harlow:story alive inside of you that they're at fault for your pain.
Kate Harlow:You are wasting your life. Your life is so precious. Let this be
Kate Harlow:the year that you become the heroine, that you become the
Kate Harlow:leading lady of a story that you love, of a film that you want to
Kate Harlow:put out to the world that you be proud of, of all of the
Kate Harlow:adventures you've been on and all of the risks you took, and
Kate Harlow:all of the courage and all of the heart felt meaningful
Kate Harlow:moments you had with a lover, with a with a one person, one
Kate Harlow:night on a date that you know, even if it didn't go anywhere,
Kate Harlow:you had one magical night, right, with friends, with with,
Kate Harlow:with purpose, your life purpose and doing work that's
Kate Harlow:meaningful, like create a life that you love, then you're don't
Kate Harlow:have to protect yourself from anything, because you're happy.
Kate Harlow:You're satiated. And of course, let me reiterate, you're not
Kate Harlow:happy in every moment, but in the moments that the saboteur
Kate Harlow:kicks up. The stories get loud. Know that every time your
Kate Harlow:saboteur is like, I don't need love, I don't need men, I'm shut
Kate Harlow:down. I'm never going to be in relationship again. Know that.
Kate Harlow:Oh, thank you so much, Regina. I see you writing the future
Kate Harlow:again. I hear you. I understand Regina is my saboteur. I name
Kate Harlow:your saboteur if you haven't already, I understand why you
Kate Harlow:want to protect me from the future, from future pain because
Kate Harlow:of past pain. It makes sense. Thank you so much. And then you
Kate Harlow:love up that little wounded girl who's underneath, who
Kate Harlow:internalized the hurt, who made it mean something about her,
Kate Harlow:who's feeling not good enough, not who's feeling deeply hurt by
Kate Harlow:the past. That little girl just needs your heroine to love her.
Kate Harlow:She needs the sovereign woman to say, you're okay, my love, you
Kate Harlow:are going to be just fine. I've got you. You're safe. I'm not
Kate Harlow:putting your your safety in the hands of anyone in the future,
Kate Harlow:but we're going to experience so much love and so much adventure
Kate Harlow:and so many meaningful connections and so much
Kate Harlow:intimacy, and we're going to do it differently this time, right?
Kate Harlow:Your heroine says that to the little girl inside, instead of
Kate Harlow:the alternative when you're in the story, projecting that
Kate Harlow:you're not open to love, projecting that every man on
Kate Harlow:planet earth is going to hurt you, projecting all of these
Kate Harlow:stories onto your future self and your future that hasn't
Kate Harlow:happened yet, that little girl needs you, and your saboteur
Kate Harlow:just needs to be heard. And like I just did, I just gave a demo
Kate Harlow:of holding space for her being empathic, understanding or not
Kate Harlow:empathic, empathetic, like understanding her I understand.
Kate Harlow:Why you want to protect me right now? I haven't heard in the past
Kate Harlow:that makes sense. Thank you so much for protecting me. I
Kate Harlow:actually don't need your services today, right? And then
Kate Harlow:giving that little girl that's underneath every time your
Kate Harlow:saboteur patterns are there and you're in the story of
Kate Harlow:limitation and lack and fear, there's a Wounded Little Girl
Kate Harlow:underneath. So just spend some time with these parts of
Kate Harlow:yourself love them up, and that is the sovereign woman. That is
Kate Harlow:your heroine, taking charge and now from that place and those
Kate Harlow:parts feeling tended to and cared for by the person that
Kate Harlow:they need to be cared for, which is you. Now you can come back to
Kate Harlow:the present moment. You can come back to the truth. You can come
Kate Harlow:back to allowing life to lead right, allowing life to bring
Kate Harlow:you what you're meant to experience, and you saying yes
Kate Harlow:to all those things that grow you in the meantime, that grow
Kate Harlow:your heroine, say yes to those things that feel scary but that
Kate Harlow:you're excited about. So you can keep growing who you are and
Kate Harlow:your connection to your heart and soul, and then when you're
Kate Harlow:living from that place, you get to experience a new paradigm of
Kate Harlow:love. So much more is available. So hopefully this episode was
Kate Harlow:helpful. Share this with every single woman you know who's shut
Kate Harlow:down from love, every woman going through heartbreak that
Kate Harlow:never wants to go there again. So much more as possible, and
Kate Harlow:you are missing the magic of your shut down from anything
Kate Harlow:like trust life, life will show you, and you start to, over
Kate Harlow:time, rebuild that trust, because you see that when you
Kate Harlow:follow your own heart and your own compass, how much life is on
Kate Harlow:your side and how much life in the universe are supporting you
Kate Harlow:on your journey, and that you're not alone and you're not so.
Kate Harlow:Love you lots. If you're curious about the heroin journey, reach
Kate Harlow:out to me. Send me a DM, or you can go to my website and sign up
Kate Harlow:for a phone chat with me, and we can see if it's aligned, to go
Kate Harlow:on the journey together. But it's a pretty life changing one,
Kate Harlow:when you take responsibility for your journey and become the CO
Kate Harlow:creator of it, so you're no longer a victim of the past and
Kate Harlow:projecting it onto the future, so much more is possible. Love
Kate Harlow:you. We'll see you next week.
