In this episode, I sit down with my 22-year-old little sister — someone I’ve known her whole life, but who shared things with me here for the very first time.

We talk about our childhood, our parents, and she opens up about the quiet pressure she's carried comparing herself to me in the past.

We discuss the expectations she's put on herself to have life figured out — all while giving herself the space to explore, to change her mind, and to find herself without the weight of rushing it all.

It’s a vulnerable, beautiful conversation between two sisters, ten years apart, learning from each other in real time.

Meet my little sister, Makayla Dutra (a.k.a Butter)
