It’s just me today, friends! I'm sliding in at the 11th hour from San Diego with my new laptop ( Yay! Finally), Waffle on the bed, and a whole lot of thoughts about what it means to not be done, but also not be the same.

After a few days back on set last week on a fantastic job, I felt something I had forgotten: The Joy. Belonging. And Distraction from "real life" a show bubble provides.

In this solo shorty, I’m talking about the emotional imprint Hollywood leaves on us, the identity shifts we never see coming, and how to honor what we loved—without sacrificing who we’ve become. If you’re in a season of transition, of questioning, of deep personal growth... this one’s for you.
