Authentic

G’day, I’m Kat John, authenticity coach, author, keynote speaker and everyday human. This podcast is where we tell the truth. No highlight reels, no love and light spritzing, no pretending. Just real conversations about what it actually takes to live aligned with who you are beneath the roles, patterns, and conditioning. I teach this work because I live this work. Together, we explore the ongoing dance between your ego self and your true self in relationships, money, work, family, and the everyday moments that shape a well-lived life. Expect grounded guidance, raw reflections, and conversation...

Giving ZEROFKS Ain't Easy 20.09.2020

To this day, giving ZEROFKS for the things that I "think" are important or matter (but aren't) isn't easy. I'm forever determining and asking myself, "is this really where I want my focus to be?" There's a part of us all that cares a lot about what others think, how we're going to be perceived and if we'll be accepted or rejected. And it's thi...

Don't Forget Your Humanity 13.09.2020

Prior to being told I was wearing my mask wrong and that, "it doesn't work unless it's above your nose", I was in a really flat, emotional and anxious state. I walked out of my home for some fresh air, to enjoy the sun and clear my head. I've been struggling with my the changes in our home of becoming an almost full-time step-parent, homeschooling for what seems like forev...

Why It's Hard To Level Up 06.09.2020

If only upgrading our lives was as easy as pressing new software update on our iPhones. We'd all be pressing that button right before bed, effortlessly being upgraded without needing to do any work. What a dream! But alas, we're human and it doesn't work that way (boo). Why is it so darn hard to face the shit in our lives? To avoid communicating honestly withy your partner when thin...

Humble Warrior 30.08.2020

This is how I'd best describe Manoj Dias . A humble warrior, beautiful friend to me and a teacher for the world, this legend's energy is something else. We met well over a decade ago in the party scene and even then he was always my safe space. If Manoj was around I felt like an angel was watching over me, for real! Prior to the life he leads now Manoj was climbing the corporate ladder w...

Redefining Masculinity 23.08.2020

I met Tom Harkin, founder of Tomorrow Man , in 2019 at a facilitated event run by Lululemon. 150+ legends were there to hear Tom speak about masculinity, what it looks like today and what it could look like tomorrow. Tom took us through some powerful exercises that opened up my eyes which is why I've brought him on the podcast. He struggled with his own masculinity growing up, wishing he coul...

Struggletown 16.08.2020

Been struggling. Between looking after Steve who’s been off his feet for two weeks, homeschooling, coaching, launching a rebrand and lockdown 4 restrictions, my energy has been going out with not a lot coming back in. Last week I cracked and burst into tears in the bathroom. I needed a release. After letting it out I realised I’d shifted into martyr mode and, “I can do this all by myself” mode. Th...

Rescuing Kids From Child Sex Slavery 09.08.2020

Millions of children around the world are trafficked or trapped in sexual exploitation with little hope for freedom. Within the first six months of being trafficked, the traffickers intention is to break the children - break their will, their choice and their freedom. I mean fk, can you imagine? The thought of this breaks my heart to say the very least and it's a matter I am dedicated to supp...

The Professor Who Gave Me The Key To Change My Life 02.08.2020

Professor Graeme Jackson is the man I met who changed the game of life for me. I walked into his office riddled with chronic pain, over life and desperate for a way out. He was unlike any doctor or healthcare professional I had met when it came to an outlook on chronic pain. He told me that if I really wanted to change and become pain free then it was up to me to take self-responsibility and put m...

Trauma To Triumph 26.07.2020

This woman has had one hell of a life! She grew up with a mum with bipolar, didn't know who or where her dad was, landed in and out of foster homes when her mum got sick, was sexually abused, her first husband died and that's not even all of it! Hearing this you'd think, fk, surely she's messed up and in struggle down, but it's the absolute opposite. Erika Cramer, aka, The...

Lonely Lies 19.07.2020

Feeling as though no one gets you, understands you or knows how you feel can feel very real. The mental stories tell you, "you're alone, no one cares about you and that no one is ever there for you", can also sound real. But more often than not, this isn't the truth. It's a warped version of reality that keeps you thinking and feeling isolated and disconnected. I played th...

When You Feel Lost 12.07.2020

I've felt lost many times in life and it was mostly due to putting my soul away somewhere I couldn't find it, all in the name of fitting in and being loved. Years of this people pleasing behaviour added up, eventually leading to realise, "who the hell am I and where have buried my true self?" I'd wandered so far from being my soul that the journey back felt impossible and...

Focus On What Matters To Your Heart 05.07.2020

It’s so inconvenient waking up! It’s a hell of a lot easier to go about life and be unaware of the shit that goes down. Last week, I bared my broken heart when I saw a sheep being treated as if it didn’t feel pain. My blood boiled and my fists clenched, then I sobbed. It hasn’t left my mind and I’ve been on @animalsaustralia site looking at ways to donate and contribute to taking action. I give on...

Identity Crisis 28.06.2020

Who am I without the pain? What's life like when I'm not suffering? What's it like to be deserving of the good life? I was so used to identifying with pain and suffering that when the time came to shift out of that belief system, I went through an identity crisis. I wasn't used to feeling good or being in control of my life. Wandering in unknown territory, slowly, slowly I bega...

How To Converse With Kids About The Ego 21.06.2020

My youngest step-daughter confides a lot in me and one day she was telling me about a daydream (when her mind wanders off and she thinks "bad" things). Her daydream had her believe that the guest speaker talking at the front of the class was bad, which led her to treat him differently and stay away from him. When she told me this I thought, "shit, how can I help her see the differen...

Moving Through The Discomfort 14.06.2020

It's too easy right now to stay quiet for fear of getting it wrong. I am challenging myself to stay open, to show up and educate myself to serve the end result of normalising equality. And the topic of global interest is it's not enough to be "not racist". The game has changed to become antiracist. In today's episode I share where I'm at on that journey (the beginning...

Giving Up Was Never An Option 07.06.2020

I was waiting for my family to come over to celebrate my 12th birthday. My parents were quiet and seemed concerned. My family arrived late and it was less than a celebratory vibe. My brother had just been admitted to hospital for a skin condition that was taking over his body, and life. To be frank, it looked like someone had blowtorched his body, head to toe, leaving one a small ring of his natur...

Ask Empowering Questions 31.05.2020

When my limited thinking gets in the way, I will ask limiting and disempowering questions that lead me to feeling shit about myself pretty quickly. Over the years I have learned and trained myself to shift my focus in many ways. One way is to ask empowering and re-orientating questions that take me out of egoic small talk and back into my true essence. This one is a goodie if you freak out before...

Sneaky Sneaky Ego 24.05.2020

What a whirlwind the last 48 hours have been. Steve's ego took us all on one epic goose chase over the weekend. Out of the blue he had us booked in to look at housing inspections, telling the girls about these new places with more space, doing an ace job at selling us all on why we should move. But my intuitive spidey webs were going off and after letting him toe the line for some-time, I too...

Honour What Matters To You 17.05.2020

I've had a lot of convos of late with clients, friends and also eavesdropped on a few when getting my decaf coconut latte, regarding what discoveries they have come to during COVID-19. A client of mine has discovered the beauty of knowing herself after being in relationship after relationship. Another has realised she loves waking up and starting her day on terms after rushing around like a m...

When You're Focused On Shit, Expect Shit 10.05.2020

Ugh, my ego has been such a drainer lately, focusing on attacking my physical appearance. When I have space for myself and I'm not working on the business, my ego starts picking on my body and how shit it is. I then go about comparing the me now, to me 10 years ago, then move onto comparing myself to others. It's been real shit and I had to pull myself up to quit making myself suffer.  S...

Clear Your Ego 03.05.2020

One of THE most important steps to manifesting your dreams is to manage, master and navigate your own ego. Why? It's always going to try and fk with you to resist you from leaving your old programmed identity. Today I'm sharing with you one of my ego clearing tools that helps you become aware of how your ego is always seeing reality through the lens of your limiting beliefs, and how to s...

What It Takes To Connect Into Your Superconscious 26.04.2020

Intuition on demand is a thing! It's easy to think you have to be in the "right mindset" or "mood" to be intuitive, however that's conditional thinking and often born out of the ego. Intuition when you want it and need it can be available to you, not just randomly or when you least expect it. Support the show

Take An Ego Minute, Then Get Back On Track 19.04.2020

Since COVID-19 some of my coaching clients have fallen off the bandwagon of making daily choices, tuning into their higher wisdom and taking action to retrain their subconscious mind. Life turned upside down and with new ways of living, being and working came about and with that, they stopped the things that served them. It's normal and natural to take a minute to regroup and settle into new...

Your Ego Will Place Conditions On How YOU Should Be When You Live Your Life's Purpose 12.04.2020

There can be delusion thinking when it comes to living your life purpose. Many of my clients who are starting out in their life purpose believe they should be rocking up to everything they do with a pump full of passion and excitement and feel bad when they don't. I 100% get this as I did this in the beginning. I would say to myself, "if I'm not excited about it then maybe this isn&...

Relationships In Isolation 05.04.2020

Isolation will highlight the cracks in relationships possibly more than every, now that everyone in your household is home (if you live with others). When COVID-19 set in, Steve and I needed a hardcore check-in to remind ourselves of the end result of our relationship and what we were willing to commit to, to not drive one another mad! Stress, plugging into the TV and sniping at one another wasn&a...
