In this first episode of 2026, we’re talking about what it actually takes to become the person you’ve been saying you want to be.

Becoming a new version of yourself isn’t just about motivation or setting goals — it’s about accepting the lifestyle that comes with them, preparing for that life, and grieving the version of you that kept you comfortable but stuck.

In this episode, we talk about:

• The hidden cost of your goals

• Why you can’t want the outcome but reject the lifestyle

• Preparing for your future self before you feel ready

• Letting go of your old patterns without shaming yourself

• The ripple effect of small daily choices

• Loving and disciplining yourself with compassion

If you’ve been waiting for the “right time” to change, this episode is your reminder that becoming doesn’t happen by accident — it happens through intention, honesty, and action.

See you next time — and keep breaking those walls.

In this episode of Brick Breakers, I open up about the deep inner work that helped me change how I see myself—from guilt and shame to self-respect and confidence.

I share how I struggled to forgive myself, how I stopped downplaying the life I worked hard to build, and how I found the courage to set boundaries that protect my peace. I also tie in powerful tools from neuroscience and self-image psychology to help you rewire the way you see yourself—because healing is spiritual, emotional, and practical.

If you’ve ever felt stuck in who you used to be, this episode is your reminder that you are not your past. You are worthy of forgiveness, credit, and protection.

Let’s break through those old beliefs—together.

Grief isn’t always about losing someone to death. Sometimes, it’s about letting go of a version of yourself, a relationship, a dream, or a future that no longer exists. In this solo episode, I share the layers of grief I’ve lived through—from losing my mom at 13, to becoming a mom myself, to the painful distance from my chronically ill father. I talk about how grief doesn’t just disappear—it changes us, stretches us, and sometimes even teaches us. Whether you’re grieving someone, something, or a part of yourself, I hope this episode reminds you: you’re not alone, and it’s okay to feel it all.
