In this deeply honest and uplifting episode, Kathleen sits down with PodMatch founder Alex Sanfilippo for a conversation about unexpected wins, inner transformation, and the courage it takes to grow through life’s hardest seasons. What starts as a discussion about podcasting quickly unfolds into a raw exploration of worthiness, identity, fear, surrender, and the quiet battles so many high-achievers fight alone.

Alex shares how his biggest win of the year — receiving a Webby Award for Responsible Innovation — was born not from flashy accomplishments, but from countless small, integrity-driven choices made behind the scenes. He reveals how this year forced him to release control, trust the process, and step into a more intuitive, grounded version of himself. Kathleen reflects on her own year of intense grief, spiritual breakthroughs, and emotional healing — a year that shattered old patterns, forced deep completions, and ultimately ignited the courage to build her new community, I AM THE LIGHT SANCTUARY.

Together, they explore why so many strong, capable people feel unsafe inside their own lives, why worthiness is often the missing link, and why learning to say “no” is essential to personal evolution. Their conversation offers hope for anyone walking through a dark or overwhelming season, reminding listeners that growth often happens in the shadows and that the wins that truly change us are the ones we never expect.

This episode is a reminder that you are not alone, your journey matters, and the light you’re seeking is already growing inside you — even if you can’t see it yet.
