The Year of the Snake and What I Shed to Finally Stop Hiding Behind Implementation and Own Being the Oracle

Have you felt like 2025 was one massive ego death where everything you thought you were supposed to be doing got stripped away and you're left wondering what the hell just happened? 

In this final episode of the three-part series, I share my brutally honest year-in-review of 2025, the Year of the Snake. I walk through shutting off my Facebook ads in March (my main revenue source), retiring Spellbound after three years, the mistake of taking on two funnel projects in September that wrecked havoc because I’m not wired to build other peoples’ businesses, my Costa Rica revelation about reciprocal community, and why stepping into 2026 means finally letting go of the "marketing expert" identity to own being the strategist and oracle who sees patterns, provides insights, and helps people find alignment before they build anything else.

BY THE TIME YOU FINISH LISTENING TO THIS EPISODE, YOU'LL DISCOVER:

• The February 28th shift when Kathryn left a 25-year Cancer cycle and stepped into Leo via Zodiacal Releasing (an ancient astrology timing technique), entering a peak period around vocation and career at the exact moment she woke up energized to start cutting expenses, shutting off ads, and making radical decisions her ego was terrified of, and why this timing perfectly aligned with the Year of the Snake's mandate to shed what no longer serves.
• Why Kathryn made less revenue in 2025 but earned more profit by cutting her $4-5K/month Facebook ad spend, retiring the scalable group program model, and realizing she'd structured her online business exactly like the brick-and-mortar she sold to escape (high overhead requiring $10K+ monthly sales just to break even), and how her Moon in Aries in the 6th house (ruled by Mars in the 2nd house of money) created massive turmoil navigating financial safety while her soul craved simplicity.
• The September mistake of saying yes to two full funnel buildout projects despite knowing she's not wired for implementation or behind-the-scenes deliverable work, experiencing ghosting clients and lack of recognition (triggering her Leo in the 10th house need for feedback and reward), and the brutal clarity that her real value is as a strategist and oracle providing insights, breakthrough thinking, and pattern recognition (Mercury in Gate 43), not building other people's systems while her own business sits in the background.
• Why the identity shift from "marketing expert and conversion copywriter" to alignment-focused strategist felt like an ego death, how her wide open G center in Human Design means she's not wired to wrap her identity around what she does for work or be known for one thing, and what stepping into 2026 looks like with multiple income streams (Selling the Invisible AI system, 1-1 mentorship layering astrology and strategy, business evolution sessions) all serving the deeper work of helping entrepreneurs find alignment first, then expression, then systems, then revenue instead of the surface-level "attract more clients and make more money" hamster wheel that's completely out of alignment for her Scorpio rising depth.
