In this final episode of the season, I'm sharing the mantra that's carried me through one of the most clarifying seasons of my life: “I won't go back.” This isn't just about resisting old patterns—it's about consciously creating sacred boundaries that protect your energy, your peace, your alignment, and your evolution. As I prepare for my annual summer sabbatical, I felt led to offer you something deeply personal: a behind-the-scenes look at how I use mantras and affirmations to disrupt self-sabotage, spiritual amnesia, and the subtle pull of what no longer serves me. My prayer is that you create your own mantra—your own declaration of forward movement—as you dream and design your next season with purpose and power. Questions to Reflect on as You Listen:
