I Loved Them...But I Lost Myself

Discovering Your Identity

In a world full of pressure, comparison, and expectations, it’s easy to lose sight of who you truly are. In this episode of Growing Out Loud, we talk about the journey of discovering your identity beyond people’s opinions, social media, and the pressure to become someone else. This is a conversation about self-awareness, growth, faith, and learning to embrace the person you were created to be. Because sometimes, finding yourself means unlearning everything that made you forget who you are in the first place.

Learning From Our Seasons

Life comes in seasons — some beautiful, some difficult, and some we don’t fully understand while we’re in them. In this episode of Growing Out Loud, we reflect on what it means to grow through every season, not just the easy ones. A gentle reminder that every season has something to teach you — even the ones that feel slow, heavy, or uncertain.

A Soft Landing—A New Beginning

As one year comes to a close and another begins, this episode is an invitation to pause, breathe, and land softly. A Soft Landing — A New Beginning is a gentle reflection on the season that has been — the busyness, the lessons, the quiet growth, and the moments that shaped us more than we realized. This isn’t about rushing into resolutions or having everything figured out. It’s about honoring where you are, releasing what no longer serves you, and stepping into a new year with grace, faith, and hope. If the year stretched you, slowed you down, or taught you unexpected lessons, this episode is for you. Before we begin again, we rest. Before we move forward, we reflect. And before we grow louder, we land softly. Thank you for being here. Thank you for growing out loud with me.

Closure Isn't a Text — It's a Choice

We don’t always get the apology, the explanation, or the text we hoped for — and that’s okay. In this episode of Growing Out Loud, we talk about what real closure looks like when it doesn’t come from someone else. It’s about learning to stop waiting for words that may never come and choosing peace for yourself instead. This episode is your reminder that closure isn’t something you receive — it’s something you decide.

I Loved Them...But I Lost Myself

What happens when love stops being beautiful and starts costing you your identity? In this episode of Growing Out Loud, we dive into the quiet ways we can lose ourselves in relationships — friendships, romance, even family — and the signs that it’s happening. Together, we’ll talk about why it happens, the cost of disappearing into someone else’s life, and most importantly, how to begin finding yourself again. With honesty and faith, this episode is a reminder that love should never require you to erase who you are.
