the gift my parents never had

full circle

#15: Life has a way of feeding you the same lesson until you learn it. Two years ago, I ran from discomfort. I ran from the same exact situation i'm in now. This time, I'm staying -- learning to sit in the lesson instead of escaping it, and trusting that it's all apart of coming home to myself.

the weight of leaving

#14: I know real estate isn't for me -- but saying that out loud feels heavier than I expected. This episode is about the fear, shame, and uncertainty that come with walking away from something you've already said yes to.

when you stop lying to yourself

#12: At some point, you can't fake it anymore. In this episode, I talkl about what it feels like to finally admit that the path you're on isn't the one you want -- and how terrifying, freeing, and necessary that honesty can be.

the gift my parents never had

#13: My parents never had the space to ask themselves what they wanted to be. Survival didn't leave room for stillness. In this episode, I talk about the privilege of having that space -- and learning to see time off not as laziness, but as a gift they helped create.

nobody wants to struggle

#11: "Struggle" gets glorified -- we romanticize pain, chase hardship and call it growth. But what happens when you've had comfort, stability, love... and start to feel guilty for it? In this episode, I reflect on a conversation with my mom and a friend that made me question why I ever felt ashamed of not suffering. Maybe we don't have to struggle to earn our worth. Maybe peace can be just as powerful a teacher.
