In the final episode of 2025, McKenzie reflects on the hardest year of her life - what broke her open, what held her steady, and what she’s consciously leaving behind.

This episode is an honest, unfiltered conversation about boundaries as self-respect, detaching self-worth from validation and metrics, and why rest is not a reward - it’s a strategy. McKenzie dives into what she’s done over-explaining, over-performing for social media, and clinging to inquiries as proof she’s “good enough.”

She also shares what she’s carrying forward into 2026: deeper trust in herself, creating from honesty instead of trends, fighting harder for her clients’ stories, and building a business (and life) that allows for rest, clarity, and sustainability.

If you’re heading into a new year feeling exhausted, reflective, or ready to let some shit go - this episode is for you.

✨ Season Two begins in January with guest conversations focused on connection, humanity, and real life beyond the algorithm.
