About this listen

🧚 a girl documenting independence in your twenties

I’m Katia! I grew up with a lot of self doubt and comparing myself to other people that lead me to hospitalisation 4 times and leaving home at 15. I thought I always had it ‘put together’, but after coming to university I realised I still have a lot to learn.

Now I’m documenting that process, balancing studies, solo travel, and healing from perfectionism and body image struggles, showing what becoming independent really looks like in your twenties.

    In this weeks episode we are talking all about actually ENJOYING Christmas despite worries of food, our bodies and maybe even family drama. Some someone who would use food as a coping mechanism, it eventually took control of me, and we are NOT letting that ruin our festive spirit, so grab a matcha and let’s get chatting!

    p.s I’m never offended if you want to get your chores done too ;)

    In this episode, I’m opening up about why Christmas used to be one of the hardest times of the year for me from food stress to losing my grandma and how I’m rebuilding a healthier, softer, more intentional relationship with this season.
