In this episode of Lesley’s Lessons, I reflect on what it really means to grow past your current environment—and how that can feel more like suffocation than success if we don’t pay attention. I ask the question: are you working hard… or are you working bravely?
We talk about spiritual permission, emotional clutter, dreams that don’t fit into polite boxes, and the kind of audacity it takes to say “I deserve the life I want.”
I also open up about what inspired The Glow Guide and Stop Looking Back—two books written in moments where I had to pull myself up and out.
If you’ve ever felt like you were too much, too late, too stuck, or too unsure, this episode is for you.
Books Mentioned:
The Glow Guide — a colorful, affirmation-based mind shift
Stop Looking Back — for the ones who’ve left but still linger
