A Journey Through Self-Forgiveness and Love - Kathleen Putta

In this heart-centered and inspiring episode, host Ipek Williamson welcomes Kathleen Putta—beloved teacher, coach, and document creation guide—whose life journey offers a moving example of transformation through presence, self-love, and service. From her childhood on an Indiana farm filled with movement and joy to decades of teaching physical education and navigating the challenges of single motherhood, Kathleen shares how she has always sought ways to feel more grounded and whole.  

Through laughter, tears, and deep reflection, Kathleen recounts her powerful path of healing that included coaching with Steve Hardison, discovering self-forgiveness, and ultimately crafting a personal document that continues to shape her identity and choices. Ipek shares a personal and emotional tribute to their own document journey together, revealing how Kathleen’s gift of listening and loving presence opened up space for true transformation.

This episode is a gentle invitation to explore what it means to create from love, to notice your thoughts with kindness, and to meet your life, with all of its complexities, with grace. Whether you're curious about personal documents, inner growth, or simply want to be reminded of the beauty in everyday presence, this conversation will leave you feeling both grounded and inspired.
