EP6-P2 When the Plan Falls Apart, Make it Yours: The Cat Came Back

🎙️ Episode 6 — The Cat Came Back – Part 2

When the Plan Falls Apart, Make It Yours

What started with a stolen cat ended with a 21-foot mural, four real felines, and a lesson in public transformation.

In this follow-up to Episode 5, I sit down with my friend Jen to unpack what happened after the theft stalled everything. This was the beginning of the big section of the mural—the part I never imagined I could finish. But the rewrite gave me a reason to keep going.

This episode covers:
🖌️ How the pause became permission to reimagine the mural
🐾 Why four cats—yes, real ones—shaped the final design
🧱 What it means to finish in public when you feel like you're falling apart
🎧 And how showing up (even unsure) is its own kind of power

Whether you are mid-project, post-failure, or sitting in a stalled moment—this story is for you.
