Ep. 00 - Welcome to Kept, FAT & Free: A New Devotion on Weight, Body and Wholeness

Welcome to Kept, FAT & Free—a special 6-part series inside the How She Got Free podcast with Katrina Monique. This isn’t another weight loss program. It’s an honest, blunt yet soft space for Black women who are ready to stop shrinking for love, reclaim their bodies, and become free from the inside out.

In this intro episode, Katrina shares:

• The story behind Kept, Fat & Free and why this season of her journey matters
• The real meaning of being “Kept”—well-resourced, held, spiritually aligned, and free in your body
• Why she’s never been a fan of chasing skinny and focusing on consistency, clarity, and deep transformation
• How this series will unfold: real voice notes, lived wisdom, science-backed rituals, and embodied permission to be well

If you’re ready to listen to your body, trust your own rhythm, and master softness over struggle—this series is for you.
