In this episode, I’m sharing one of the most pivotal chapters of my life—the story of my divorce, and how it became the catalyst for my healing, my creativity, and my courage.
For years, I stayed. It wasn’t a bad relationship. In fact, it was the safest and the most loving thing I’d ever known. But inside, I was slowly unraveling. I couldn’t hear my voice. I couldn’t feel my joy. I was waiting for a loud, dramatic reason to walk away. But what I really needed was to trust the quiet knowing in my body.
✨ In this episode, I talk about:
— Why I stayed stuck in indecision for so long
— How childhood trauma shaped my idea of love and safety
— The mirror moment that finally changed everything
— What clarity actually feels like (and when it shows up)
— The fear of choosing yourself when no one else gets it
This isn’t just about divorce. It’s about any decision that asks you to leave the familiar and trust your truth.
If you're sitting in that place—safe but disconnected, loyal but lost, I hope this episode meets you there. 💌
