S4E3: The Ask Before the Arrival: Why I launched a GoFundMe while still in the becoming


Listen Later

This might be the most vulnerable episode I’ve ever recorded. Oh wait, it is the only episode I've ever recorded... lol.

I’ve spent most of my life being the one others leaned on—the holder of grief, the midwife of transformation, the steady one.

But this week, I hit the place where I couldn’t hold it all alone anymore.

In this episode, I share why I finally launched a GoFundMe—not after the glow-up, not once everything was figured out, but right now… in the messy middle of the becoming.

This is a conversation about sacred support, shame unraveling, nervous system truth, and what it really means to ask for help while still holding the frequency for others.

At one point, I said “Can you even imagine?”—not because I thought you couldn’t, but because I was flabbergasted at how deeply wired I’ve been to equate support with worthiness and polish. That wiring is what I’m flipping now.

If you’ve ever held space for others while quietly unraveling yourself, this episode is for you.

If you’ve ever wanted permission to ask before the arrival—this is it.
