Paths Back to You
If you’re sharp enough to see the patterns—and stubborn enough to stay stuck in them—you’re in the right place. Paths Back to You is a podcast about the paradox of being human: smart and self-sabotaging, wise and wildly lost. Together, we'll untangle messy ideas, reclaim the magic in nuance, and find practical ways to navigate the storm without losing ourselves. This isn’t about fixing you. It’s about finding the paths that feels like coming home.

Real confidence is not cold, detached, or uncaring. Quiet confidence is firm, but open and receptive.

Self-trust is a concept that gets missed a lot when talking about personal growth or healing. I believe it is one of the key pieces to unlock self-worth, self-love, and true confidence.

After an extended hiatus, we are back! Funny that I named this podcast 'Paths Back to You", because that was precisely what I have been struggling with for the past year or so.
