This episode is a reflection on growth-the kind that doesn't come with clarity or confidence, but with grief, responsibility, and becoming someone new in real time.
This past year changed everything. We talk openly about losing both parents-in-law, carrying grief while life keeps moving, and what it looks like to make big decisions-like buying a business - when your heart feels heavy and uncertain. We explore how growth often happens in seasons we didn't choose, and how becoming different isn't something to fear, but something to honor.
Amy shares honestly about how she's not the same person she was a year ago-how growth has reshaped the way she sees herself, her relationships, and her capacity to show up differently than before. We talk about the quiet, internal shifts that don't always look dramatic from the outside, but change everything on the inside.
Together, we reflect on what it means to outgrow old versions of yourself, to let go of who you were in order to step into who you're becoming, and to trust that change- even when it's uncomfortable-is part of the process.
This conversation is for anyone who feels heavier than they did a year ago, quieter, wiser, or changed in ways they can't fully explain. It's for the people who kept showing up even when they didn't feel ready. The ones who survived a year that took something from them-and are still standing.
In this episode, we talk about:
If this year changed you... it makes sense. Some years don't just pass-they leave their mark.
…It's Not That Serious - but sometimes, it really is.
