I’m back! In this comeback episode of Purposescaping, I’m sharing what life looks like for me right now in this season of transition. I just dropped my firstborn off at college, I’ve got a high school senior starting the college application process, and my youngest is beginning pre-K at a language immersion school. It feels like endings and beginnings are colliding all at once, and I’ll be honest—it’s a lot.
But through it all, I’m reminding myself of the lessons of the seasons: planting, growth, harvest, and rest. No season is wasted. In this episode, I’m talking about how I’m holding on to myself while helping my kids through their milestones, why I’m setting intentional goals for the remainder of the year, and how I’ve learned to balance ambition with grace.
If you’ve ever felt like life was shifting beneath your feet, I hope this episode encourages you to embrace your season and find alignment in the midst of change.
What You’ll Hear in This Episode:How I’m navigating multiple big family milestones all at once.
Why I’m giving myself more grace in this season of transition.
How goal-setting helps me stay grounded when life feels full and emotional.
The difference between my rigid 20-something plans and my flexible midlife vision.
Ways I’m aligning my personal brand and purpose with where I am right now.
