Okay… so, full transparency, I almost didn't record this. Which is ironic, because this podcast is supposed to be all about figuring life out, pushing through, and showing up—even when it feels messy. And right now? Life feels messy. Entering my Saturn Return, questioning everything, and feeling like I'm not even taking my own advice. But maybe that's exactly why I need to do this. In this episode, I talk about why this season of life feels so uncomfortable, the pressure to have it all figured out, and what I'm learning about embracing the unknown.If you're feeling lost, unsure, or like life is shifting in ways you didn't expect—you're not alone.
