Katie has spent over two decades helping individuals reconnect with their bodies and heal from the inside out using mindfulness and trauma recovery techniques. She opens up about her personal journey, transitioning from a professional snowboarder to becoming a leader in the wellness space, and shares the powerful tools she uses to help others find peace and fulfillment.

Healing from Trauma: Katie shares her personal healing journey after a major snowboarding injury, discussing how traditional recovery methods weren’t enough. She turned to mindfulness, somatic healing, and trauma recovery techniques, which transformed her approach to healing.
Mindfulness for Overcoming Overwhelm: Katie talks about how mindfulness and somatic practices help high achievers and anyone experiencing overwhelm to slow down, tune into their bodies, and find balance.
Finding Fulfillment by Slowing Down: Katie emphasizes the importance of slowing down and intentionally focusing on just one thing at a time. She shares how this practice helped her find deeper joy and a more balanced way of living.

Host, Emily Williams is a success coach, author, speaker, and CEO of multiple brands.
After falling into a quarter-life crisis and struggling through a string of low-paying jobs (including serving up lattes at Starbucks), she finally decided it was time to follow her heart. So she packed her bags, moved to London (where she knew no one), and launched her own coaching business, I Heart My Life (without knowing if she’d ever make a dime). And that’s when her whole life changed course.
In her first month in business, Emily earned $442. She then went on to hit 6 figures before her 30th birthday, and—after just 18 months—successfully scaled what she'd started to a multi-million dollar empire.
Today, she remains the CEO of I Heart My Life, which has evolved into a media, educational and lifestyle brand through which she carries out her mission of helping thousands of women worldwide to create a life better than their dreams.
