Send us a text


In this episode, I talk about:


A huge milestone in my life, paying off my student loans

How a crappy situation with an ex-boyfriend ended up being
serendipitous 

Archie is 8 months old and has weaned from breastfeeding and
how I'm feeling about it

Someone who was close to me disappeared from my life for 5
years and tried to re-enter but I'm protecting my peace and
leaving that door closed

Being more intentional with my time to reduce anxiety and
stress



I feel like there was so much more I wanted to say in this
episode. One of my biggest 'aha' moments recently is that I can
forgive someone, have empathy for and respect someone without
being their friend or letting them into my life. This is a great
realization for me because I struggle with people pleasing and
often times that leads me to getting stepped on. At 32, I've
finally learned to stand my ground and be uncomfortable in
disappointing people, even if disappointing others is what's best
for me.
