The world shut down and something quietly changed in all of us.

In this conversation, Ceci and Della talk about what happened after the noise stopped—how comedy shifted, how identity got complicated, and why mental health stopped being abstract and started being personal. They reflect on navigating social media as honest creators, the pressure to perform wellness, and what it means to stay human in a culture that rewards certainty and speed.

This isn’t a post-COVID recap. It’s an honest look at how life feels now, what didn’t go back to normal, and why real conversations matter more than ever.

Change isn’t scary — what scares most people is what they’ll have to give up to grow.

In this episode, Ceci and Ashley unpack the real cost of choosing alignment in life and work. Not the aesthetic version of spirituality or success, but the uncomfortable parts people avoid talking about — grief, fear, identity shifts, and the pressure to keep performing a life that no longer fits.

They talk about why so many successful people still feel disconnected, how mindset shapes personal reality, and why trusting your inner authority often means disappointing expectations — including your own past ones.

This conversation explores spirituality and business without bypassing the work, the role of consciousness in growth, and why social media metrics don’t reflect real fulfillment. It’s about choosing honesty over comfort, responsibility over validation, and learning to sit with duality instead of running from it.

If you’re in a season where things look fine on the outside but feel off on the inside, this episode will meet you there.
