Summary

I’ve been going through a massive shift—breaking up with control, choosing ease, and trusting that things will align without me having to force it. But let's be so for real… it hasn’t been easy. The fear, the doubt, the urge to grab the wheel and MAKE things happen? Constantly tries to claw it's way back in.

In this episode, I’m talking about what it actually feels like to sit in uncertainty without losing my mind, how I’m handling moments that make me want to fall back into old patterns due to fear of not being taken care of, and what I’ve learned about shifting from hopelessness to real power.

If you feel stuck, frustrated, hopeless, or like things just aren’t clicking the way you want—this is for you. Let’s fix it!
