In this episode, I share why I nearly hit the pause button on this podcast—driven by the dual forces of online bullying and the internal battles waging in my own mind.

It's a raw and real journey through the shadows of our fears, my struggle against the relentless onslaught of bullying, the self-doubt that haunts us, and the feeling of “stuckness” by being trapped in our own thoughts.

Just as I was ready to abandon my calling from God to do this show, a dear friend's candid reminder turned the tide.

She reminded me that it's not about having all the answers or doing things perfectly. It's about being real, sharing the unvarnished truth of our experiences, and simply being ourselves.

Here are the key moments from the episode:

6:30 How my insecurities lead me down a dark path

11:45 Why I almost quit the podcast

23:30 How podcasting has given me permission to be me

28:30 My first real experience of online bullying & how I responded

38:40 Discovering the purpose of life 

47:20 My Human Design reminded me of who I am

Join me on my couch as I call on everyone listening to embrace vulnerability and refuse to let negative self-talk obstruct your path to embracing the divine within you.
