🎙️ Episode Summary

In this soul-stirring conversation, I’m joined by powerhouse entrepreneur and aligned-living advocate Brooke Hemingway, who shares how a lifetime of people-pleasing nearly broke her—and how radical honesty and internal validation brought her back home to herself.

Together, we reflect on our journeys from performance-driven women to purpose-led leaders, and how our dear friend Rachel Luna’s legacy continues to guide us toward truth, courage, and alignment.

You’ll hear us unpack the emotional cost of validation addiction, the subtle ways it shows up in motherhood, business, and faith—and why breaking free from the need for external approval is one of the most sacred gifts we can give ourselves.

This episode is an invitation to stop living by committee, start trusting your discernment, and finally—give yourself permission to be judged.
