this episode is a little bit chaos, a little bit clarity. i’m talking about trying to chase my dream life while packing, working two jobs, running on coffee and impulse, and silently screaming every time rent is due.

we get into the struggle of wanting stability and something bigger—like being an influencer, being seen, and doing something that actually lights me up. but also… being broke. being tired. and being over it.

i’m sharing some real talk about social media fakeness, job stress, validation from unexpected places, and why being “delusional” might actually be the smartest thing i’ve done for myself lately.

if you’re somewhere between burnout and breakthrough—this one’s for you.

soooo… trusting people again after being abandoned? yeah, not easy. in this episode, we dive into what happens after setting boundaries—when the silence creeps in and you start doubting yourself all over again. is it a red flag or just a trigger? how do you tell the difference? and more importantly… how do you not spiral every time someone takes too long to text back?

we’re talking rebuilding trust (with yourself and others), learning to spot the difference between past wounds and real warning signs, and what healing actually looks like when you’re deep in the “wtf am i doing” phase.

whether you’re rebuilding after betrayal, setting standards for the first time, or trying not to self-sabotage the healthy stuff—you’re not alone. grab your journal. we’re unpacking it all.

healing isn’t always linear—sometimes it’s a mess. sometimes it’s quiet. sometimes it’s two steps back before you even realize you’re still moving forward. in this episode, i’m getting real about what it’s actually like to heal after abandonment, setbacks, and emotional burnout.

i talk about the waves—the high moments, the crashes, and the parts where you wonder, “why am i not over this yet?” we dive into what healing really looks like when you’re still in it, when you’re tired of being strong, and when you’re trying to make peace with progress that doesn’t look like a straight line.

if you’re in the thick of it right now—this episode is for you. your feelings are valid. your pace is valid. and even the messy steps count.
