Find Your Dharma: Uncovering Your Soul’s Purpose in Midlife with Katie Farinas
In this soul-stirring episode of The Midlife Makeover Show, Wendy Valentine sits down with Katie Farinas — certified yoga teacher, Reiki practitioner, speaker, and Dharma coach — for a conversation that will make you want to pick up your metaphorical chisel and start uncovering who you’ve always been. Katie shares her deeply personal journey from gaslighting herself into a life that “looked fine” on the outside, to surviving chronic migraine, a dark night of the soul, and ultimately discovering her true calling through yoga philosophy. Together, Wendy and Katie break down the concept of Dharma — your soul’s purpose — and explore why midlife is actually the perfect time to stop checking boxes and start living from the inside out.
What You’ll Learn
- What Dharma really means — and why it’s not a job title, but a way of being in the world
- The powerful “Dharma equation”: Essence + Expression = your soul’s purpose (and why your expression changes, but your essence never does)
- How to recognize the red thread of your Dharma woven through your entire life
- Why your midlife experiences — including the hard ones — are your greatest data for uncovering your purpose
- The “deathbed meditation” practice that will clarify exactly what matters most to you
