Tomorrow is my birthday (!!), and I can't believe I’m saying this—but I’m actually excited to turn 26. My 25th year was heavy, introspective, and filled with lessons, but it also brought growth, wins, and new beginnings.
This past year, I:
✨ Bought myself a car
✨ Started freelancing
✨ Began planning my move-out journey
✨ Went back to school (for health coaching!)
But the biggest transformations weren’t just external—they were internal. In this episode, I’m reflecting on the lessons that shaped me, from navigating love and detachment as an empath to realizing that I’ll never feel fully ready for life’s milestones (and that’s okay). Plus, we’re talking about money, self-worth, and why your body is the only home you’ll ever truly have.
