In today’s episode, I opened up with a soft thank you for being here, for listening, and for loving me as I am. I talked about my second day of school (which was online!), some photos I shared from my vision board and art journey, and how surreal it feels to be on this path now. A year ago, I would’ve never imagined applying let alone being in an MBA program for entrepreneurship.

I shared about crying with a friend and how powerful it felt to finally be held during that release. I realized I’d gotten used to crying in silence, mostly in the shower, and how rare it’s been to feel emotionally safe enough to break down out loud.

I also walked you through something I did in my gratitude journal: writing out the version of me who’s already living my dream life: the one with awards, book deals, and a Birkin bag.

This episode was a reflection on how far we’ve come together in the last year, how much confidence I’ve built from being able to share my voice here with you, and how deeply grateful I am for the unconditional love and space you’ve given me to just be myself. It’s not lost on me. You truly mean the world to me.
