The Magic of Authentic Self-Expression a...

Yasmeen Turayhi
About this episode

In this episode of Gateways to Awakening, I speak with the radiant Kathi Joy, a master of self-expression, emotional freedom, and the art of playful presence.

"We’re not here to hustle for our worth. We’re here to remember it” - Kathi Joy. 

As a poet, intuitive channel, and co-creator of transformational experiences, Kathi guides people into their truest selves through language, laughter, and soul-level reflection. Her work blends creativity with consciousness, helping others reconnect with joy, truth, and the poetry of their own being.

Together, we explore:

  • How to break free from performance and reclaim authentic expression

  • The role of reverence and play in spiritual evolution

  • What it means to “speak from soul” in both poetry and presence

  • The impact of emotional honesty on healing and creativity

  • How sacred art and words can become medicine

This conversation is a journey into what it means to live uncensored, unfiltered, and fully expressed. Kathi reminds us that our true voice isn’t something to find—it’s something to remember.

If you’ve been feeling silenced, creatively blocked, or ready to shed the armor and speak your truth, this episode is for you.

If this conversation speaks to you, we’d love to hear from you — tag us @Gateways_To_Awakening on Instagram and Facebook to share your reflections. Your reviews on Apple Podcasts mean the world and help others find the show.
