Who the Hell Am I Now?

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2168339/fan_mail/new] I spent so much of my life taking care of everyone else that I don't know if I ever stopped to figure out who I am. I went from being a kid... to being a mom. Then a grandma. I've spent my whole life busting my ass, surviving, taking care of everyone, and now suddenly... we're empty nesters.  And for the first time in my life, nobody needs me every second of the day. So now what? In this episode, I'm talking about what it feels like to be in that weird, messy, in-between space of trying to figure out who the hell you are now that the version of you everyone needed... isn't who you have to be anymore.

In this episode, I'm talking about coming back to myself—the version of me who is blunt, honest, bold, and not afraid to say what I think. The same version of me that started this podcast years ago. Because somewhere along the way.. I started to lose myself a little bit. But rest assured... I am back!

Part 3: Choosing Who You Become After Survival

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2168339/fan_mail/new] You survived. You left. Now comes the part people rarely talk about — rebuilding.  In the final episode of this 3-part series, I'm talking about what it really looks like to rebuild your life after chaos.  Learning to trust yourself again. Getting used to peace. And figuring out who you are when survival mode is no longer running your life. Rebuilding doesn't happen in one big moment. It happens in small choices.... one peaceful decision at a time. If you're learning how to live a life that finally feels like yours, this conversation is for you.
