Ever sat in your car in the driveway, gripping the steering wheel, wondering how your life ended up here—and why it looks nothing like you imagined it would? Like maybe you followed all the “right” steps, but still ended up heartbroken, exhausted, or quietly grieving the life you thought you'd have?
In this episode, Jessica N. Turner—author of I Thought It Would Be Better Than This and lifestyle influencer for busy moms—gets real about what happens when life falls apart and how to slowly, courageously piece it back together. From gut-wrenching disappointment to unexpected transformation, she shares how naming your pain can lead to healing, rediscovery, and even joy. If you’ve ever whispered “this isn’t what I signed up for” through tears—this conversation is the lifeline you didn’t know you needed.
