In this solo episode, I’m opening up about a season of big life changes—moving to a new location, finalizing my divorce, becoming a first-time camper homeowner, and navigating situational depression. It hasn’t been easy, but I’m sharing how I’ve worked through these challenges and found joy, gratitude, and growth along the way.
I’ll take you through the strategies that helped me, like journaling with a heart of gratitude, leaning into community, and prioritizing mental health. I’ll also share some personal reflections on how I’ve embraced new beginnings, from camper living to finding joy again in podcasting and writing.
If you’re going through your own tough season, I hope this episode encourages you to honor your journey, connect with others, and find beauty in the process of growth.
What I Talk About in This Episode:
- Navigating situational depression and seeking support.
- How gratitude journaling shifted my perspective.
- The importance of community and asking for what you need.
- Lessons learned from embracing new beginnings.
- Practical tips for prioritizing your mental health and self-care.
