Hosted by Kait—a mother, recovering people-pleaser spiritualist, and passionate advocate for change—this podcast is a call to action for anyone ready to rewrite the narrative and co-create a better future.

But here, we’re focused on solutions—rebalancing power toward the Divine Feminine, fostering connection, and creating vibrant, supportive communities. Each episode features candid conversations with inspiring women and changemakers who are uplifting their communities, challenging the status quo, and building something new.
You’ll uncover tools and insights to release limiting beliefs, navigate grief and growth, and step boldly into the power that’s been within you all along.

If you’re ready to challenge the beliefs and systems that no longer serve us, co-create a world that reflects balance and the Divine Feminine, and rise into your full potential, you’re in the right place. Join Kait and a growing community of visionaries as we learn, grow, and rise together.
Let’s build something extraordinary—because when we rise, we inspire others to do the same.
