Episode Notes

When the affirmations stop working and the vision board fades, what’s really missing?

In this episode of Everything Is Personal, Len May sits down with Catherine Crestani, founder of Willow Healing, to explore what happens when mindset alone isn’t enough. Catherine shares her extraordinary journey—from speech pathology and multi-clinic ownership to burnout, divorce, and a full-blown spiritual awakening that reshaped how she helps others heal.

They dive deep into:
💫 The one thing beyond mindset that transforms real change
🧬 How “spiritual epigenetics” can keep your potential switched off
⚙️ Accountability systems that actually work (and why AI might help)
🧠 Why over-givers and high-achievers hit burnout faster
💡 How body, energy, and soul integration lead to lasting transformation

It’s part science, part soul, and all personal. If you’ve ever done “the work” and still felt stuck—this episode will show you where the missing piece has been hiding.
