🎙️ Episode Title:

Breaking Free from Chains: Standing in Your Truth with Navy Veteran Judy Estevez

💭 Episode Description:

This one is for every woman who’s ever whispered to herself, “There has to be more than this.”

In this soul-shaking episode, Navy veteran and trauma coach Judy Estevez gets uncaged with me about surviving to thriving and how she found the courage to leave, heal, and finally stand in her truth.

We talk about what it really means to break generational chains, why “staying for the kids” often does more harm than good, and the daily practices that helped her rebuild from the inside out. Judy’s story is a roadmap for any woman who feels stuck, silenced, or scared to start over.

If you’ve ever struggled to choose yourself, or felt like your pain was too heavy to turn into purpose- this conversation is your invitation to begin again.
