About From the Heart – The Inside Job of Living a Life of Purpose, Creativity, and Impact
What does it take to live a life of purpose and positive impact? In this solo podcast, environmental engineer, designer, and author, Katie Patrick, talks straight from the heart about the struggles, breakthroughs, and revelations that come with a life spent trying to meaningfully change the world. It's about entrepreneurship, mindset, creative flow, parenting, perseverance, and what it takes to get by in the world we are trying to influence for the better. New episodes released every Wednesday.
It's a cultural value system that when things "go wrong" we perceive them as "bad." It's a paradigm to expect life to go smoothly and successfully all of the time. Perhaps it does for some people. For many, it's riddled with grief, trauma, difficulty, broken relationships. It's a painful paradigm to carry of constantly broken expectations. Looking at the world as a series of experiences from which to grow, learn, and evolve from. It's a different way to interpret the world. Things go wrong sometimes and "wrong" is just a lens - it's a filter and a judgment. How does everything change when you see each event as a lesson or as a calling?

Let Tiny Habits Forge the Way
Big goals aren't always a good idea. Tiny habits are better. In this episode, I talk through the power of small daily habits that grow into substantial changes over years. Stuff takes time. It takes lots and lots of time. There is great power to adopting a single small daily habit that accrues into the sort of person you want to be. Commit to the habit and let God and the habit forge the way.

When The Book Writes Itself
There's one school of thought to structure, grit, and grind to achieve anything. Then there's another which calls us to surrender to this grasping and then surrender some more. It beckons us to sit in presence, in being, in connection with the energy around us and let whatever flows, to flow.
In this episode, I talk through stories of authors that were taken over a kind of spiritual flow state who all have a similar claim - that they were not the ones who wrote their books. The book took no effort, as though the pen in their hand was moved by another force. They all say "the book wrote itself." Each of these books is an international bestseller.
I think it's a fascinating concept to let go and get carried by the spirit. There's a constant tension between the grind to work, and the letting go and flow. I'm trying to do less grit and grind, and instead, meditate on being in connection with the Earth and universe, and let my work and inspiration flow from this.
