#68. Listen to your inner weirdo and embrace the unknown with Kate Welshofer

02/28/25 • 58 min

Y'all, today, I’m bringing you an episode that will resonate with anyone who's ever questioned their path, felt stuck in a role that didn’t quite fit, or wondered, What do I actually want my life to look like?

I’m joined by the incredible Kate Welshofer—writer, speaker, content creator, and self-proclaimed mischief-maker. You may recognize her from her days as a TV news anchor, most recently as the host of Most Buffalo on WGRZ. Now, she's a content creator, the creative force behind The Secret Monster Project, and the Communications and Content Strategist for the National Comedy Center in Jamestown, NY. Kate is all about spreading joy, embracing change, and proving that it’s never too late to rewrite your story.

In this episode, Kate opens up about:

✨ The winding road that took her from news anchor to content creator

✨ The power of just doing something you enjoy—without attaching pressure to the outcome

✨ How breaking away from societal expectations allowed her to truly find herself

✨ Why making a change doesn’t have to mean having it all figured out (#amiright!?)

#67. Fix Your Vision Board: Ditch the Fluff and Make It Work for You

Alright, let’s be real—vision boards can feel a little cringe. Cutting out magazine quotes like “Be Brave” and slapping them on a poster doesn’t magically make you brave (trust me, I’ve tried). But here’s the thing: vision boards can actually work—if you do them right.

In this episode, I’m breaking down:
✨ Why your past vision boards might’ve been a total flop
✨ The one small tweak that made mine actually work
✨ How I used a vision board to manifest my dream home (spoiler: it wasn’t magic, but it was kinda wild)
✨ The key to picking images that actually get you results
✨ Why you should focus on one goal at a time (I know it's hard but trust me on this)

I promise—this isn’t just another fluffy “believe and receive” talk. We’re getting practical about how to use vision boards in a way that feels good and gets results.

#69. Staying accountable: My monthly review strategy

In this episode, I'm sharing a simple practice that's already made a huge difference in keeping me on track with my goals — a monthly review. Taking about an hour at the end of each month to reflect has helped me stay accountable, identify where I fell short, and create a plan to overcome obstacles in the month ahead.

For example, I wasn’t as consistent with podcasting this month as I’d hoped. To fix that, I’m putting some new systems in place — like working with a podcast editor (shoutout to Jake!), scheduling a batch of interviews in advance, and shifting most future interviews to virtual. These changes will streamline my process and save so much time!

I love sharing what’s working for me, and I hope this episode inspires you to try something similar. Tune in and let me know what you think!
