Hey Soothers! This is audio from my group call today inside the Imperfect Artist's Way. It was a message about capability, power, compassion, struggles with shame and the highly sensitive person's nervous system. Something in me told me more folks needed to hear it, so I share this audio with you today. It includes a Tarot reading, a bit of a lecture, a nervous system exercise, journaling and a meditation. 

Hey Soothers! Glad to be here. I've got as an episode for you today, more of a casual voice note, walking through the woods, as I share what's been going on behind the scenes in my life lately.I'm talking about the (sometimes painful) process of growing into a new voice and stepping into a bigger version of myself, and all the discomfort and doubt that brings up. I get into how my sense of identity is shifting (is it ever not?? sheesh), how I'm navigating a season that feels really fallow and in-between, and how spiritual loneliness and frustration with others not voicing their spiritual beliefs publicly is something I'm sitting with lately too.If you're in a liminal season yourself, where things feel slow, uncertain, or like you're not quite who you used to be but not yet who you're becoming, I hope this episode feels like a warm cup of tea and a reminder that you're not alone.Sign up for the Imperfect Artist's Way, starting May 11Trust the Universe with Missy & Catherine podcastJoin the Trust the Universe Membership, $44/month, cancel any time.

Hey, Soothers! Here’s my Tarot reading for the month of April 2025, for all. Feels like an understatement to say that growth isn’t always easy—it expands us, stretches us, and sometimes contracts us before we bloom again. But this month's Tarot reading for April wants us to remember this: nature moves in rhythms—trees shed their leaves before budding anew, the ocean tides pull back before surging forward, and the moon wanes before it waxes. Just like the natural world, we, too, grow in cycles of expansion and contraction. There are seasons of stretching beyond our comfort zones and seasons of retreat, rest, and integration. Trust that both are necessary.This collective reading reminds us to embrace the sweetness of the present moment, trust that our spirit guides are always near, and move at the pace our soul needs while we go through whatever cycle is occuring. There’s no rush. Let life unfold in divine timing. Center yourself as the expansion or contraction (or both!) occur. Join me for Enough Abundance April, pay what you can month-long money & magic groupJoin the next Trust the Universe membership call, Tuesday April 8th (replay provided) all about Everything We Learned About Ancestral Healing in Bali

Hey, Soothers! Here’s my Tarot reading for the month of March, for all readers. The cards had a very clear message for the month ahead: You are not alone, and your voice carries more weight than you realize. Spirit, ancestors, your higher self, whoever, are surrounding you, ready to assist—but they need you to ask. At the same time, this is not a moment to stay silent or shrink back. Your words, ideas, and truth matter. Whether it’s speaking up for yourself, sharing your wisdom, or calling in the support you need, March is a time to embrace both the power of your voice and the deep well of guidance available to you.Watch the video or listen to the audio for guidance, assignments and ideas on how to do this. Happy March!

Hey Soothers. I hope you are well. I am returning from sabbatical with more urgency than I had imagined, given that Trump has won a second term and we are entering scary, chaotic and even stranger times, politically, societally, and spiritually. I asked Tarot what is the guidance podcast listeners most need to hear now, in the wake of the election results, and I received card #1 of the Major Arcana of Tarot: The Magician. Tune in to receive some short guidance around the magic and the medicine of this card. Don't know or care about Tarot? Still check in; I think you'll find some motivation in this episodes. I'll be back soon-ish with more — life updates from my sabbatical, wedding, and new offers. Dec. 4th, workshop with me and Missy Toy Ozeas: How to Trust the Plan When It Feels Like There’s No Plan: Spiritual Surrender in Times of Upheaval, $25, lifetime replayPS: Want to join me for an intentional new year's eve retreat in the Blue Ridge Mountains?

Hey Soothers! A while back I had this idea to, every once in a while, interview intuitives and healers on their health and self-care routines. I don't know about you, but I'm the kind of person who could read an entire magazine based on people's morning routines alone, so I thought it would be fun to do this for us on this podcast, too. Energy and self-care and health routines are also just extra important to the intuitive empath, to help ground and settle us. And the first person I thought of was my dear friend and colleague, energy healer Missy Toy Ozeas! In this episode Missy and I go into extremely granular detail on our morning routines, our diets, self-care routines, skin care routines, and more! Enjoy!Missy and I have also launched the Empath Visibility Accelerator (EVA)! This is our 12-week program for big-hearted HSPs and empaths who want to be more visible in their work in the world, especially if you have spiritual and intuitive gifts but are a little scared to talk more publicly about them. We get it. In the 12 weeks we'll teach you the exact tactics we used to go from very socially anxious, extremely shy women who hid behind corporate careers working for others, to visible spiritual workers showing up bravely in public. EVA starts July 10th, see you in there!The Sunday Soother podcast is a spin-off of The Sunday Soother, a weekly newsletter that creates conversations around compassionate personal development and helps readers access their spirituality, magic and mindfulness in practical, actionable ways.You can find Catherine on her website catherinedandrews.com, or  @catherineandrews on Instagram.

Hey Soothers! EMFs, HSPs, all the acronyms. Today I'm diving in on how I went from somebody who never once thought or worried about non-native EMFs (the electromagnetic fields and radiation produced by technology, appliances, cell phones, wifi routers, etc) to somebody who has started to see a lot of evidence that they are, at the very least, not helping HSPs thrive. I walk you through my own journey of realization of their effects in my personal life, and also then what I've seen and pieced together in my clients' health stories. Most of the conversation around EMFs I've heard has either been panicked and fear-mongering, or judgmental and condescending (that they can't possibly have an effect and anybody who thinks so is a conspiracy theorist) and I think there is a space for a middle ground to think about them and I hope to provide that for you today.If you're interested in learning about to meaningfully reduce EMFs in your life plus other health benefits from nature, geared toward the HSP, sign up for the waitlist for Recharge Your Light.

Hey Soothers, I'm excited to announce my next brand-new course, the HSP health course many of you have been asking for for some time: Recharge Your Light! Starting June 20th, it's a six-week course and community that will help you stop feeling drained and reclaim your energy, your light, and your vitality through holistic principles of nature, circadian rhythms, environment, and diet. Get on the waitlist here for $200 off and access to a free live HSP circadian living training I'll be doing. To help you understand why the tenets in Recharge Your Light are so important to your health as an HSP, today I talk about how and why the human body is a battery system, made of a special kind of water, and charged by light and earth. When our voltage is high and charged? Our health should be pretty good. When it's low or drained? Health conditions and issues may manifest. Listen on for what we can do in simple and easy ways to charge our body's battery so we can have optimal HSP health.

Hey Soothers, I recently put up a question box to do a Q&A podcast (coming soon, submit your Qs here!) but a lot of the Qs I got were around hormonal issues - PMDD, peri-menopause, menopause, so I figured, why not just record an episode with all of my tips for how I have (mostly) healed my severe period symptoms and hormonal issues? And how I'm working to thrive through perimenopause and set up the path for a healthy menopause? So I did! Listen in for these 7 tips. Know they're not medical advice, but rather the (hard-won) lessons from somebody who started out with really horrible PMDD, went into peri-menopause at 38, and now at 44, is feeling, genuinely, better than ever.

Hey Soothers! I'm here to talk about our well-being and our bodies as electrical systems (which, spoiler alert, they really are!). This is why so many of us feel "drained" or "burned out" — in a way, we can think of our bodies as batteries, or lights. Some of us are well-charged and shining bright, and some of us are on our last 5% and feeling the effects. So how can we go from living low-voltage, tired, drained, to high-voltage, feeling vibrant and grounded? I talk about practical ways to start living a high-voltage life and share how I incorporate them in my day-to-day, too.Also inside the Sunday Soother Membership in April we're talking all things getting unstuck.

Hey there, Soothers! Do you feel stuck in life? Spring is a great time to get the energy moving, and I've got some tips on how to do it. I explain the concept of 'getting the chi going' that relates to Feng Shui, about how you can start to create momentum in your life around a particular area, and how I'm starting to do that this April on Instagram by doing a Reel challenge (follow me @catherineandrews).

Have you ever heard of the term aphantasia? Aphantasia is a relatively unstudied phenomenon that involves not being able to visualize images in your mind. Reportedly about 3% of the population have this condition, and I'm one of them.I didn't realize til my late 30s that this was even a thing; I was shocked to find out that most people had the ability to go around doing what essentially sounded like hallucination to me. (I learned about it, as many people did at the time, from this article.) As I read more about how most people can easily visualize or play movies or images in their mind, I grew jealous, especially as I got more into spirituality and manifestation. A huge component of manifestation, meditation and other spiritual practices is often the ability to visualize your desires, or other images, in your mind's eye. I've also been told many times by random people that I'm psychic, but how can somebody be psychic if they can't see, you know, psychic images in their mind's eye?Over time, I've figured out my own ways to tune into spiritual practices that work for me, even though I can't visualize. And that's what I'm sharing about today! Even if you don't have aphantasia, tune in, because these tactics can help everybody deepen their spiritual practices.I'm hosting a free 3 weeks within the Sunday Soother Membership in March, with 6 free new classes to attend.
