Episode 57: Unstuck Yourself: When You're Ready to Leap from Fear to Freedom with Kristy Kuhl
Sometimes we don’t even realize we’re stuck — we just call it busy, fine, or being responsible. But what if that overwhelm is actually pointing to something deeper?
In this week’s conversation, Kristy Kuhl — high-performance coach, keynote speaker, and energy catalyst for entrepreneurs and executives — joins Dr. Katie to unpack what “stuck” really means. She helps us see that "stuckness' is a signal of misalignment between who we are and how we’re showing up.
Kristy and Katie talk about the three ways people get stuck (not knowing the next step, reacting to fear, or feeling trapped by the life they’ve built), the sneaky role of what will people think, and the “rise reflex” that pulls us back to our comfort zone just as we start to rise. Kristy shares practical steps to recalibrate, build momentum, and get back into motion — without waiting for perfect clarity.
If you’ve ever felt like you’ve outgrown your current chapter but aren’t sure what comes next, this episode will remind you that you’re not broken — you’re becoming.
What You’ll Learn:
⚡The hidden wisdom inside your “stuck” seasons
⚡Why fear of judgment quietly runs the show
⚡How to spot your rise reflex before it pulls you backward
⚡A simple shift to turn overthinking into forward motion
