   52. The Final Episode of the Play Big Queen Podcast

   Summary: In this final and deeply intentional episode of the Play Big Queen Podcast, Kate closes the podcast under the Full Wolf Supermoon of January 3, 2026, marking the end of a complete creative and leadership cycle. Rather than nostalgia, this episode centers discernment, boundaries, and orientation — naming what has been carried long enough and what is now ready to be released with clarity. Kate reflects on the Wolf Moon’s traditional associations with survival, territory, and instinct, and shares what she has learned by listening with cultural humility as others reference 2026 as the Year of the Fire Horse. She explores how intensity, momentum, and decisive movement show up when cycles complete, without claiming cultural ownership, but allowing meaning to inform reflection. The episode also documents Kate’s decision to set new digital boundaries through her Facebook and Instagram migration, choosing intimacy and alignment over algorithmic growth. Drawing from her background as an EMS instructor at the FDNY EMS Academy, Kate reflects on leadership rooted in lived experience, honoring the appointment of New York City’s new Fire Commissioner, Lillian Bonsignore, and the kind of grounded authority required to lead complex systems. Weaving together lessons from running, research on visual attention and performance, creative authorship, and lineage, Kate shares why looking toward the horizon changes how we move. She also marks key milestones including the pending Tarantate trademark and the upcoming release of the Anne-Marie red pointed kitten heel in honor of her mother’s 70th birthday. This episode closes the Play Big Queen chapter with respect, completion, and forward motion — while clearly naming what continues beyond the podcast.

   51. Finding Your Purpose Without Losing Yourself When You Have ADHD

   Summary: In this powerful and grounding episode of the Play Big Queen Podcast, Kate dismantles the myth that purpose is a single, fixed calling you must discover before you begin living. Speaking directly to neurodivergent listeners — especially those with ADHD — she reframes purpose as something lived, chosen, and practiced through action rather than overthinking. Drawing from her personal journey through survival, corporate life, EMS work, family upheaval, and creative reinvention, Kate explains why certainty is not a prerequisite for purpose, it’s a byproduct. This episode is an invitation to stop waiting for clarity, stop judging your timing, and start choosing meaning one intentional step at a time. If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by too many ideas, frozen by perfectionism, or afraid of choosing the “wrong” path, this episode offers relief, permission, and a radically simpler way to approach purpose today.

   50. Leaving the Room on Purpose: Sicilian Lineage, Creative Cocooning, and the Ethics of Return

   Summary: In this milestone 50th episode, Kate reflects on a full year of weekly podcasting and names a quiet but powerful transition underway. Drawing from Sicilian lineage, Southern Italian folklore, Persephone mythology, and women’s migration history, she explores the ethics of leaving the room on purpose. This episode is about creative cocooning, intentional withdrawal, and honoring cycles of departure and return as necessary phases of authority, clarity, and embodied leadership. Kate also shares updates about closing Walk + Tawk, questions the sustainability of constant public visibility, and invites listeners into a more spacious, slower relationship with creativity, community, and self trust.
