At the start of Season 3 on Tend Her Wild, astrologer and coach Cathy Pagano talked about 2025 as a year of endings and beginnings. Today Kate and Betsy get personal and reflect on a moment in Iceland 4 years ago when they both had an inkling of something hard they were going to have to face. Kate faced her challenge 2 years ago that we discussed in Episode 44, and now Betsy is facing her challenge. We had no idea where this conversation would go, but feel it is an exploration into honesty, nudges from the soul, and surrender.
In today’s episode we discuss:
- Betsy’s internal process and her story of leaning into a big relationship change.
- The messiness of life, navigating times of doubt, and how our brain resists change which is why it’s easy to stay in complacency.
- The pockets of darkness, self-hatred, shame and guilt that accompany divorce.
- The moment Betsy turned inward, quit asking for people’s insights or perspectives, and chose to move into trust-fall and surrender.
- How when we don’t shed our skin like the snake, we cannot survive.
- Following the soul, breaking generational patterning, midlife reckoning, and moving into a life of more authenticity and truth.
