Play the long game
Episode 357

In this episode, I speak about the pressure I used to put on myself to heal quicker, grow quicker, feel better quicker, and become “better” faster. I genuinely believed that if I was doing the work on myself, then surely I should be further along by now.That mindset created so much suffering. I was constantly living with this quiet pressure in the background of my life, telling myself to hurry up, get there already, figure it out, fix it, improve. I struggled to let life unfold because I was too busy trying to force myself into the next version of me.But over time, life has shown me that the most meaningful things rarely happen quickly. Trusting yourself again takes time. Building healthy relationships takes time. Changing lifelong patterns takes time. Coming home to yourself takes time.None of the things that deeply changed my life happened overnight. They happened through small decisions, small shifts, and repeated moments where I chose to stay with myself instead of giving up on myself.And eventually, I looked back and realised that things had actually changed. Not because I rushed them, but because I stayed long enough for the change to happen.This episode is for anyone who feels frustrated with how long growth, healing, or life is taking. Maybe your life is not behind. Maybe your growth is not late. Maybe you just need to stop rushing yourself and play the long game.IN PERSON EXPERIENCES, MelbourneOne-day retreat in Balnarring - June 12th, 2026Sunday Meds - June 21st, 20261:1 COACHINGOne-time 75 minute coaching call - secure your spot hereRead my book, Authentic - coming home to your true self - AUS, EUR, USAWrite into us - let us know what you want to hearWelleCo - use code KAT15 for 15% off welleco.com.auwww.katjohn.com.auSupport the show
