If you’ve ever wondered why you settle, sabotage, or shut down.. this episode tells you the truth.


Today on Almost Adulting, Violetta is joined by Jay Shetty - New York Times best-selling author, host of On Purpose, former monk, and one of the most influential voices in self-improvement, emotional healing, and modern spirituality.

In this powerful conversation, Jay and Violetta dive into:

  • the limits we place on ourselves (and each other)
  • fear as an unformed boundary
  • why timelines sabotage our growth
  • the real meaning of love (beyond romance)
  • how to build connection through vulnerability
  • and how to rewrite the beliefs holding you back


If you’re craving clarity, emotional growth, deeper love, or a fresh start, this is an episode worth revisiting. Some conversations deserve a second life. and don't forget to leave me a 5 star review on the apple podcast app when you're done listening!!!!
