Some Things Are Worth Being Afraid Of | Episode 64
What happens when you're ready for a fresh start, but you're scared of everything that comes with it?
As I get closer to selling the house where my boys grew up, there's a lot about my future I don't have figured out. I don't know where we'll live next, what it will feel like to eventually live alone or exactly how the things I'm building will support me financially.
And then there's the thought of falling in love again. Wanting that deep connection with somebody while knowing just how scary it can be to trust someone with your heart.
In this episode, I'm sharing what it's like to be approaching 50 with so many changes ahead. Some are exciting, some are bittersweet and some scare the hell out of me.
But I'm learning that being scared doesn't mean I have to stop moving forward.
Maybe some things really are worth being afraid of.
Reflection is where healing begins. 🌼

I Don’t Stay Quiet Like I Used To | Episode 63
I was never someone who was afraid to speak my mind, but somewhere along the way, I started questioning whether the way I communicated and processed my emotions was wrong.
In this episode, I'm sharing how I slowly became more agreeable, why asking for help felt so difficult and what I learned about myself when my marriage ended. From the everyday conversations I avoided to finding the courage to stand my ground during my divorce, I've come to realize that using my voice isn't about being louder or always being right.
It's about learning to communicate in a healthier way, understanding what I need and trusting myself enough to say when something doesn't work for me.
I'm still an overthinker. I still second guess how I say things. But these days, I'd rather have the actual conversation than keep having it over and over in my head.
Because finding your voice doesn't always mean discovering something new. Sometimes it means learning to trust the voice you've had all along.
🌼 Reflection is where healing begins.

I’m Not Waiting Until I’m Not Scared | Episode 62
Selling my house means more than packing boxes and finding somewhere new to live. It means leaving behind a home filled with my boys growing up, family traditions, ordinary moments I didn’t know I’d miss and some of the hardest years of my life.
This time, I’m facing the move without the person who used to reassure me that everything would be okay. I’m still scared, I still want a plan and I still don’t know exactly what comes next. But maybe courage isn’t waiting for the fear to go away. Maybe it’s trusting myself enough to take the next step anyway.
If you’re standing at the edge of a change you know you need to make but you’re still scared to take that next step, this episode is for you.
