Every time I tried to run from my pain, I was also running from my power.

In this episode of Empowering Her, I’m sharing what a single line from And Just Like That taught me about how we view aging, pain, and growth. When I heard the words “poof, the last 15 years are gone,” I felt something deep inside me shift. Why would I ever want to erase the years that shaped me—the ones that broke me open, stretched me, and turned me into the woman I am today?

I talk about what it means to go through and grow through pain, how I’ve learned to heal my inner girl, and why that healing matters for the next generation watching us. When we stop trying to erase our stories, we become living examples of what strength, resilience, and authenticity look like for the girls who will come after us.

In This Episode, I Share:

• Why I no longer wish away my past or try to “undo” the years that shaped me.
• How I learned to stop avoiding pain and start asking what it’s here to teach me.
• Why healing my inner girl helps me raise emotionally strong and grounded girls.
• The mindset shift from “Why me?” to “What did this teach me?”
• How reframing pain turns it into a powerful source of wisdom and strength.
• What the next generation learns when we model emotional honesty and healing.
• Why every challenge becomes a portal to our deepest power if we let it.
