What Happened to Kate Callaghan? A Mother's Story · Robyn Edleston

This podcast is very dear to my heart. Today I am joined by Robyn Edleston, the mother of one of my close personal friends, Kate Callaghan.   Kate was an internationally respected nutritionist, author and hormone healer who passed away one year ago today – on June 25, 2020 – after a short but courageous battle with breast cancer, aged just 36 years old.  Throughout Kate’s cancer journey, we worked together to process the devastating diagnosis and the emotions surrounding it. It was an enlightening practice for myself, and for Kate, to work through the complex emotions within such an event, and an experience that I will cherish forever (you can listen to my podcast with Kate here).  Kate was an exceptional woman; brave, determined and an absolute fighter right up until the end. Robyn shares many of the same beautiful qualities as Kate and she and I have worked together to help process the emotions throughout the various stages of grief after we said goodbye to Kate.   In this moving podcast, Robyn shares with us an insight into her life with the incredible Kate Callaghan, the rollercoaster of Kate’s cancer, and the emotional upheaval that such a diagnosis can inflict on a family. I hope you enjoy this special conversation. **Please note an addition. Before Kate did go to Mexico she did travel to Australia after a friend organised her to see an additional private oncologist. She was prescribed medications.

Jin Ong is medical intuitive, pattern hunter, theme breaker and messenger of truth. Trained professionally as an osteopath, psychosomatic therapist, western medical acupuncturist and herbalist. She has worked with thousands of clients. She started two bricks and mortar clinics she later went on to sell to move into the online space as a coach + mentor. She is the creator of the Release Process ® and host of The Art Of Listening To Your Body Podcast. Jin works with complex physical and emotional conditions that don’t respond to traditional or conventional therapies, including surgery. Her work also includes those with cancer, autoimmune conditions and fertility issues. She is a strong believer that your body is a manifestation of your emotional state. The experiences, events and traumas in your life are associated with an emotion that wants to be expressed and released at the time. If you don’t know how to express or rather you suppress because that emotion is inconvenient, it gets stored in your body as a source of stress. You can compensate until you can’t anymore. When it all gets too much, your body presents with physical issues: pain, injury, illness, disease; mental imbalances: anxiety, depression that overtakes your life and fears and phobias; behavioural dysfunction: addiction, excess control and discipline; as well as recurring issues playing out in your life. You don’t need to end up at this crisis point. Jin weaves in the practical and the woo to intuitively read your body and decipher the messages it has for you. Most importantly she facilitates a deeply cathartic and transformational process to empty out your emotional cup, create space for more and manifest the life you truly desire. She loves to dig deep, speak about the unspoken, and help you process unresolved emotions that hold them back from living the life you truly want. It all starts with getting comfortable with discomfort and speaking about the unspoken.
