In a world filled with opinions, expectations, and constant noise, how do you find your true voice—and more importantly, how do you trust it? In this episode of the Life Sculptors Podcast, we explore the power of tuning your inner voice. Using A Crow of His Own by Megan Dowd Lambert as our narrative foundation, we reflect on how others’ comparisons, rejections, and validations can distort our self- perception. You’ll hear how external noise can drown out your internal clarity—and what it takes to rise above it. We talk courage, comparison, and the discipline it takes to believe in the sound of your own call—even when it doesn’t sound like anyone else's. 🎧Listen now and start rewriting the story you tell yourself.

In this final episode of the series, we explore what it means to come to the edge of yourself—where comfort ends and growth begins. Inspired by Into the Uncut Grass, we reflect on sacred tension, decision-making, and the wisdom of slowing down. This episode invites you to pause and ask: Where in your life have you been avoiding the edge?

In Part 2 of our series The Grass Isn’t Greener—It’s Uncut, we wrestle with a powerful question: Are you stuck… or are you strong? Using Part II of Trevor Noah’s Into the Uncut Grass as our guide, we explore how fear, ego, and old patterns can masquerade as strength. We break down the difference between stubbornness and determination, unpack the purpose of discipline, and talk about how freedom without wisdom is just chaos in disguise. Your growth begins where your comfort ends—and you can’t move forward if you’re still clinging to what you won’t let go of.

In this first episode of a powerful 3-part series, we begin exploring Into the Uncut Grass by Trevor Noah—a picture book full of deep, grown-up truths cloaked in imagination.

Through the lens of Part I, we unpack what it means to start well, the tension between chasing dreams outside and doing the work inside, and how maturity, discipline, and self-awareness shape true freedom.

You'll hear stories, reflections, and real talk about how we sometimes pursue progress while neglecting the very foundation required to sustain it.

🌱 Are you running toward something purposeful—or just away from discomfort? 🌱 Are you taking care of the inside so you can thrive outside?

This episode invites you to pause, reflect, and consider the real starting line: within.
