Description

It’s full-on summer… and there’s some FUNK in the air. Not the groovy, bass-heavy kind—but the kind that settles into your mood after something beautiful ends or when life’s demands hit hard. In this episode, we explore what “funk” really is, how to name it, sing it, own it, and move through it with humor, grace, and soulful tools.

Cat shares her own post-anniversary-trip funk story, complete with homemade blues lyrics, wisdom from Uncle Ned, and a fresh take on the Serenity Prayer. Whether you're coming down from a high or stuck in a low, this episode will give you permission to be real and tools to get back in your flow.
