Body Breaking Free

Katie Kay Graham

What wellness is all about — uncovering your higher self. Wellness isn’t about following rules or programs, it is about tapping into the expansive truth of who you are. What you really need is more living and feeling like yourself. You have known deeper down there is a better way, that is why you are here. This podcast is here to show you there is. We get pulled away by reinforced social expectations, and we start living from unconscious patterns rather than our own truth. It’s time to wake up. Wake up to the wellness that gets to be expansive, full of authenticity, possibilities and dreams.

This podcast is about exploring the modalities that will tap you into your higher self. Into the expansion that arrives when you sink deeper into your truth. Join host Katie Graham as she will show you the path to break free into your alignment: living, breathing and being your higher self.

Her goal is to empower YOU through this story of who you were so perfectly designed to be. I can't wait for you to listen to this episode with Nikki!
