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 conversations that don’t shy away from the messy middle. This is a space to get honest, take responsibility, and come home to yourself, one real step at a time.
New episodes drop weekly on Mondays. Listen wherever you get your podcasts.
And if it lands, a rating or review genuinely helps this work reach the people who need it.

Expectations sabotaging your next step
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this episode, I talk about the pressure we put on new ideas.
The pressure for them to work, to succeed, to make money, to prove themselves.
And how quickly something that begins as a spark, an idea, an intuitive nudge, can become weighed down by expectations.
Lately, I've been noticing this in myself, particularly as I'm navigating changes in my business and exploring what feels like the next chapter. Before I've even taken a full step forward, I can feel my mind wanting answers.
Will this work?
Will people buy it?
Am I making the right decision?
What if I get it wrong?
It's fascinating how quickly we can take something that feels alive and turn it into a performance review.
In this conversation, I reflect on the tension between intuition and control, and how often we crush new ideas under the weight of needing them to be successful before they've even had a chance to breathe.
