#10: Navigating Life’s Flow: Tools for Clarity ft. Cathy Hawk

You know that moment when something feels “off” — you can’t quite name it, but you know you’re not where you’re meant to be? Maybe you’re over-functioning. Maybe you’re burned out. Or maybe life just feels muddy, and you’re ready to gain clarity, lit up, and be aligned again. 

Today, I’m joined by my mentor and one of the original voices in the coaching space, Cathy Hawk. Cathy is the founding director of Clarity International™ and the co-creator of the groundbreaking Choice Point Map and Clarity River frameworks that have helped thousands reconnect with their gifts, get clear on their purpose, and live what she calls a “lights on” life. 

In this episode, we dive deep into how to notice, nurture, and navigate your inner light, especially when the world feels loud, overwhelming, or dim. You’re going to walk away with mindset tools, visual frameworks, and real-life strategies to help you tune into clarity, even during chaos. If you’ve ever asked, “Is this really how I want to live?” — this episode is your permission slip to explore what else is possible. Let’s dive in!
