In this deeply honest birthday episode, Leah opens up about the real story behind 2025, a year marked by transformation, uncertainty, survival mode, and the moment she finally realized she hadn’t taken a full exhale in almost twelve months.

From the Malibu fires to the energetic intensity of the Year of the Snake, Leah shares how a subtle undercurrent of fear shaped her choices, her nervous system, and her ability to trust life… until something shifted.

This episode is for you if you’ve been bracing all year, carrying a quiet heaviness, or feeling like you’re navigating life alone. Leah breaks down what survival energy really is, how it disconnects us from our intuition, and the powerful moment she finally put down the weight she didn’t know she was carrying.
