Welcome back to Fireside. Today’s episode is a blog post omnibus, where I share the blog posts that I’ve published the previous month. In this episode, I cover three blog posts written in January and February, talking about some behind-the-scenes from my rebrand, embodying more than what is portrayed online, and the relief of not having to be a leader in my online space.
In this episode I talk about:
All the figuring out that I’ve done and am still doing about the new Kayte Ferris brandThe disjoint between this actual me, and the me I am onlineRemembering my word of the yearRealising that I don’t want to leadFor links and resources discussed in the show, see the full show notes.

Hello and welcome back to Fireside. Today I’m going to be talking about something that has stirred a lot of thinking in me: secret sauce. What I mean by this is the ‘thing’ that makes us successful online, and particularly on that app we can’t help but love-hate: Instagram.
The ways in which Instagram has changed, and what it’s meant for ‘growth’The beauty in the absence of strategyEmbracing creation, and showing up, and infectious joyFor links and resources discussed in the show, see the full show notes.

Hello and welcome back to Fireside. Today is a topic prompts very much a ‘been there, know that’ feeling for me, because if there’s one thing I’ve always done, it start big, new, overwhelming things. Whilst that is part of the fun of it, there are a few ways in which you can approach it to make your redirection easier, and more easily attainable. That’s what I’m talking about in today’s episode.

Hello, and welcome to Season 2 of Fireside. I’m back a little earlier than expected due to a very interesting January-themed question that I received, and it’s all to do with goal setting - or the lack thereof! In this episode I talk why I personally enjoy goal setting, why you may NOT feel the need to set goals (or not in the New Year sense, anyway) and about getting curious about what you actually need and feel.
How the goals I’ve set have changed over the yearsWhy I enjoy goal settingInterrogating our emotions - namely, guiltAlternatives to aims and goals depending on how you feelEmbracing the magic of the questionsMy One True Want workbook, available for free to downloadFor links and resources discussed in the show, see the full show notes.

If 2023 was concluding the last chapter of my life, then 2024 is the turning over into the next one. Almost every aspect of my life is completely different now than it was a year ago, and at this point I have no idea what’s going to happen with all these new plot points and locations nor where the story is going to go. But then, as I was writing that sentence, I remembered: I’m the author. I decide what happens in this next chapter.
What I talk about in this episode:
What I hope to embody in 2024The goals I hope to achieve in the coming yearWhat my Word of the Year is for 2024, and how I came to decide on itFor links and resources discussed in the show, see the full show notes.

In this episode, I’ll be using experience gained from my own pivots, as well as insights from coaching I’ve received, to advocate for pivoting from a place of security, safety, and abundance, not from a place of panic and desperation. Pivoting can be fun - I promise!
