Who am I?

starting anew

On this episode I go over what is working in my life and what isn't. The start of my sobriety from alcohol and ending my relationship with social media. Wherever you're at in life, I hope it meets you there.

wintering and dating

This episode moves through a quieter kind of honesty. I talk about wintering, the internal seasons we don’t choose but still have to live inside, and what it means to stay present when life feels unresolved. I reflect on grief, healing, faith, and the slow work of becoming more truthful with myself rather than rushing toward a version of “better.” Toward the end, I shift into something more concrete: the non-negotiables I hold now when it comes to dating and partnership. What I’m no longer willing to abandon, soften, or explain away. Not as a checklist, but as a form of self-respect. This isn’t about hardness or walls, but about clarity. About knowing what kind of love I’m available for, and what I’m not. This episode isn’t tidy. It’s reflective, firm in places, tender in others. A snapshot of being in the middle and choosing to speak from there.

Who am I?

In this episode, Mallory talks honestly about being in the middle of things. Not healed, not broken, just here. She reflects on what it’s like to keep showing up when life feels heavy, to sit with uncertainty instead of rushing to fix it, and to tell the truth without needing it to be neat. This episode is quiet, unpolished, and low pressure. Just a place to breathe, listen and get a feel who who she is. I opened a place for anonymous questions. If there’s something you want to ask or talk through, you can leave it here. No names. No pressure. https://forms.gle/GYeS7tFUEY53Zk5G7
