I also touch on what it’s like to navigate PMDD in a relationship.

This episode is filled with actionable steps, essential resources, and the people who helped guide me through. 

I also reflect on how I feel now, the lessons I’ve learned, and the non-negotiables I’d stick to if I had to do it all over again.

In this episode of Not By Chance, I dive deep into one of the most transformative and challenging experiences of my life: the death of my mother. I share the complexities of grieving someone who was both deeply loved and, at times, incredibly hard to connect with.

I walk you through the weeks leading up to her passing, the night she died, and the emotional whirlwind that followed. From the initial fog of grief to a year later, when I found myself at rock bottom. 

I reflect on how that period of my life became the catalyst for profound personal growth.
