Episode 9: Grounding Yourself When Life Keeps Going with Katy Featherstone Coombes

If you’ve ever wished the world would just hit “pause” so you could catch your breath… you’re not alone.

In this episode of Small Things, Big Life, I’m joined by Katy Featherstone Coombes, a business mentor, consultant, and strategist who knows exactly what it feels like to navigate big life changes while everything else keeps moving at full speed.

Katy shares how giving birth to her son at home became a turning point in her life, not just as a mom, but as a business owner. We talk about the courage it takes to listen to your intuition, the small choices that help you stay grounded, and why waiting for “the right time” to slow down often keeps us stuck.

This is a conversation about resilience, self-trust, and making space for what matters most even when the calendar is packed, the to-do list is long, and life refuses to stand still.

  • Practical, doable ways to find your center in the middle of chaos.
