10 Unexpected Lessons From a Movie I Waited 13 Years to Watch
—
Have you ever been surprised by wisdom showing up exactly when you didn’t expect it — like in the middle of a movie at 51 years old?
In this episode, I share the completely unexpected, soul-shifting experience I had watching Eat Pray Love for the first time — and how it cracked open 10 lessons that hit me right where I needed them most. From forgiveness that frees you, to mental clutter that quietly robs your joy, to the powerful reminder that you don’t need to escape your life to change it — this conversation is your permission slip to pause, feel, and reset.
Whether you’re navigating a transition, longing for clarity, or feeling the nudge to return to yourself, this episode will meet you there — with truth, with tenderness, and with 10 life-reminders that are anything but cliché.
✔️ Why forgiveness isn’t weakness — it’s your gateway to peace
✔️ The invisible cost of mental clutter and how to release it
✔️ What champion-level love really looks like (and why you’re worth it)
Your encore chapter doesn’t require a passport — just presence, honesty, and permission to rise. Let this episode remind you that healing doesn’t have to make sense to anyone else. It only has to make sense to you.
If something stirs in you while listening, pause and write it down. That whisper might just be the beginning of your favorite version of you.
