In this Episode of the Heal with Kat Show, We talk about why 2025 felt so intense for so many of us, how this show was born from a desire to be of deeper service, and what’s coming next as we move into a new chapter together. I also share some big personal updates, including my move back home to San Diego and the upcoming release of my book, From Black Sheep to Cycle Breaker—a guide for anyone who’s ever felt like the odd one out in their family system and knows they’re here to change something.We explore inner child work, family constellation therapy, nervous system healing, and the practice of acceptance as tolerance—not excusing harm, but learning how to stay grounded, resourced, and sovereign in relationship. Bring your questions and your curiosity, let’s dive in.Question 1 (5:27): I struggle accepting my family in their imperfections. I want a relationship with them because I can handle their stuff but then I find myself wanting or needing them to be perfect or meet my expectations Question 2 (15:28): What’s one cycle you think a lot of people should break?Question 3: (25:00) I'm newly divorced and I don't feel like I need to process anything.

In This week’s episode of the Heal With Kat SHow we dive deep into the emotional aftershocks of big cosmic and personal shifts. We start by reflecting on how the eclipse has left us feeling — cracked open, renewed, or somewhere in between. Then, we move into the heart of family dynamics: how to love the people who shaped you while still protecting your peace and healing old wounds that still sting. Finally, we explore what it means to feel like two different versions of yourself — and how to integrate all your identities without feeling like a fraud. This is an episode about honesty, boundaries, and becoming whole.Question 1: How Are You Feeling After the Eclipse?Question 2: How Do You Love Your Family While Still Protecting Yourself From Those Old Wounds That Make You Feel Small?Question 3: I Feel Like Two Different People How Do You Integrate Different Identities Without Feeling Like A FraudConnect with Kat:🤍  /https://www.instagram.com/kat_daou/🤍  /https://www.tiktok.com/@healwithkatpod🤍  /https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCix2tpYqYdRcMNNAqKfYJew🤍  /https://www.katdaou.com Links: Insight Timer:https://insighttimer.com/katdaouCycle Breaker Quiz Link:https://www.tryinteract.com/share/quiz/665bc191d9650a00154a4a22Age Mapping Mini Course Link:https://www.katdaou.com/agemap 

In this deeply vulnerable episode of Heal With Kat, Kat invites trauma specialist and EMDR therapist Jenny Gennaro into an honest, soul-level conversation about the healing power of EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), trauma integration, and the reclamation of the body after years of spiritual and emotional disconnection.Kat shares her personal journey of returning to her body after years of living in survival mode, exploring how childhood emotional neglect, abandonment wounds, and sexual trauma shaped her intuitive abilities and coping mechanisms. Together, she and Jenny unpack how trauma fragments the nervous system — and how healing can bring us home to our true, embodied selves.Themes:What EMDR actually is — and how it helps rewire the brain to release the emotional charge of traumatic memoriesHow childhood emotional neglect and attachment wounds can create disconnection from the body and fuel hypervigilance mistaken for intuitionWhy many intuitives and empaths develop their “gifts” as tools of survival, and how to evolve them into tools of serviceThe connection between trauma, autoimmune conditions, and chronic body symptomsKat’s personal EMDR journey — including what resurfaced, how she processed it, and the profound identity shift that followedHow psilocybin (mushrooms) can be used intentionally and safely within a therapeutic EMDR container to lower defenses and deepen emotional accessThe difference between complex trauma and single-event trauma, and why integration can feel like an identity crisisWhat it means to re-stitch your head back to your body and reclaim the right to feel safe, grounded, and presentHow reclaiming your nervous system is a radical act of social justice and spiritual resistanceConnect with Kat:🤍  /https://www.instagram.com/kat_daou/🤍  /https://www.tiktok.com/@healwithkatpod🤍  /https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCix2tpYqYdRcMNNAqKfYJew🤍  /https://www.katdaou.com Connect with Jenny: 🩶 / https://www.gennarocounseling.com/🩶 / https://www.linkedin.com/in/jenny-gennaro-prokopchik-msw-lcsw-acs-emdr-c-b0b31872/ Links: Insight Timer:https://insighttimer.com/katdaouCycle Breaker Quiz Link:https://www.tryinteract.com/share/quiz/665bc191d9650a00154a4a22Age Mapping Mini Course Link:https://www.katdaou.com/agemap Guest Bio:I’m Jenny I work with people who are done skimming the surface. You’ve done the therapy. You’ve read the books. You’re self-aware, insightful, maybe even the one everyone else turns to—but something’s still stuck. You’re tired of circling the same patterns, managing symptoms, or just getting by. You want real movement. Depth. Relief. And you’re ready to do the work.  That’s where I come in.  I’m a certified EMDR therapist and trauma specialist with a style that’s relational, grounded, and honest. I won’t push you faster than you’re ready—but I also won’t tiptoe around what needs to be named. I bring a deep understanding of the nervous system, attachment, and somatic work to help people heal from the things that talk therapy alone couldn’t reach.  I offer EMDR intensives for those who want to dive in and create lasting change without dragging things out for months or years. These are focused, immersive sessions designed for people who are ready to go deep and need therapy that fits their life—not the other way around.  If you’re someone who holds space for others—whether in healthcare, education, leadership, the arts, or the healing professions—this is your space to let go, reconnect, and shift from surviving to fully living.  Healing doesn’t have to take forever. But it does take intention.  Let’s begin.

In this week’s episode of the Heal with Kat Podcast we are joined by author & leadership coach Jessica Boots, whose new book “It’s All Connected” reveals how the seven chakras — our body’s energetic centers — can guide us toward purposeful, confident, and heart-centered leadership. Jessica’s story of transformation — from educator to author to healer — reminds us that true leadership is an energetic practice. It’s not about power over others, but about alignment within ourselves.Together, we move through each chakra from root to crown, exploring how energy, embodiment, and awareness influence how we lead, love, and live. In this episode: Root Chakra — Grounding into purpose & stability in uncertain times Sacral Chakra — Inviting creativity, flow & emotional connection into leadership Solar Plexus — Building confidence, courage & self-worth as a leader Heart Chakra — Leading with compassion while setting healthy boundaries Throat Chakra — Speaking your truth with integrity & presence Third Eye — Honoring intuition & inner wisdom in decision-making Crown Chakra — Seeing leadership as a sacred practice of connection.00:00 — Introduction 07:00 — How the Chakra System Became a Map for Leadership 10:30 — Root Chakra: Grounding in Purpose & Stability 16:00 — Sacral Chakra: Creativity, Play & Emotional Flow 22:10 — Solar Plexus: Confidence, Worth & Empowerment 28:45 — Heart Chakra: Compassion, Love & Boundaries 36:00 — Throat Chakra: Speaking Truth in Leadership 44:00 — Third Eye: Intuition as a Leadership Tool 51:30 — Crown Chakra: Connection, Spirituality & Sacred Leadership 58:00 — Integrating the Chakras into Everyday LeadershipConnect with Kat:🤍  /https://www.instagram.com/kat_daou/🤍  /https://www.tiktok.com/@healwithkatpod🤍 /https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCix2tpYqYdRcMNNAqKfYJew🤍  /https://www.katdaou.com Connect with Jessica: 🩶 / @leadandbewell🩶 / http://www.leadandbewell.com/ Links: Insight Timer:https://insighttimer.com/katdaouCycle Breaker Quiz Link:https://www.tryinteract.com/share/quiz/665bc191d9650a00154a4a22Age Mapping Mini Course Link:https://www.katdaou.com/agemap Bio:Jessica is a writer, transformational leadership coach, yoga teacher (RYT 500, RPYT) and mama who supports introspective, heart-led humans in evolving their leadership from the inside out.

We talk about how to navigate the chaos of today’s politics — and why, if you think it’s Democrats vs. Republicans, you might be missing the deeper truth.

Kat shares intuitive insights, honest reflections, and the deeper spiritual threads that connect it all.Question 1:  How Do You Make Sense of Everything Going On In The World Right Now?Question 2: Should I Say Goodbye To My Goal Of Learning To Drive at 40? Question 3:  How Do Adults Build Real Friendships Again?
