In the 300th episode of Say YES to Yourself!, Wendy sits down with Katie Beecher, licensed counselor and medical intuitive who helps people connect to their intuition and listen to what their bodies are trying to tell them. Katie recovered from bulimia at age 16 after reaching out to a Jungian psychologist without her parents' support—a decision that changed the trajectory of her life.
They explore:
- How to challenge your worry and ask: Is this fruitful or just draining?
- Why treating symptoms as friends changes everything
- How to stop waiting for perfect conditions and start living your life now
This is a conversation about trusting yourself, setting boundaries, and learning to live now instead of waiting for perfect conditions.
