Katherine Schwarzenegger Pratt on Courage, Motherhood, and the Healing Power of Animals

In this episode of The Breakdown with Bethany, Bethany Braun-Silva sits down with New York Times bestselling author and mom of three, Katherine Schwarzenegger Pratt, to talk about her new children’s book, Kat and Brandy. Inspired by her real-life pony, Brandy, the story explores courage, resilience, and the power of getting back up after a fall. Katherine opens up about the lessons she learned from her mother, Maria Shriver, how animals have shaped her sense of calm and connection, and why it’s okay for parents and kids to be scared sometimes. This heartfelt conversation is a reminder that bravery doesn’t mean never falling; it means finding the strength to rise again. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
