This isn’t the life I pictured… and yet, it’s more beautiful than I could have ever imagined.
In this episode, I’m opening up about what it means when your life doesn’t go as planned—when the dream you held onto changes or disappears completely. I talk about grief, growth, and the messy in-between where unexpected beauty shows up.
If you’re in a season that feels nothing like what you thought it would be, this one’s for you. You are not failing. You are becoming. And just because your story looks different doesn’t mean it’s any less powerful.
Let’s talk about the strength you didn’t know you had, the joy that surprises you, and the reminder that your journey still has so many beautiful chapters ahead.
Keep going. You’ve got this.
And don’t forget—there’s sunshine even in this
