In this deeply resonant episode of In Your Element, Kathleen Kenneally explores the Metal Element—the energy of autumn, discernment, and letting go. She describes this as the season of refinement, a time to evaluate what still serves us and what is ready to be released. Like the trees shedding their leaves, we are invited to pare back, to cut away what has become heavy or stagnant, and to uncover what is most precious and true.

Kathleen reflects on her own experience of physical and emotional transformation—facing an unexpected surgery during the fall season, where the literal knife of Metal became both a tool of healing and a symbol of release. She speaks to the paradox of this element: how the same sharpness that cuts can also clarify, refine, and restore balance. Through this lens, she invites us to see the sacred precision in letting go—how every incision, every decision, can be an act of trust in the body’s innate wisdom to transform.

As she prepares for her recovery, Kathleen’s clinic remains open, continuing to offer BioMat, red and blue light therapy, BrainTap sessions, and Reiki for those seeking grounding and renewal. This episode is both a reflection and a transmission—a gentle reminder that letting go isn’t an ending, but the necessary breath before transformation begins.
