The Breakup Episode: What Emptiness Taught Me About Home


Listen Later

This one's vulnerable, babe. I’m recording from my dad’s freshly designed home, but back in my own space . . . I’m sitting in the raw middle of a breakup. In this episode, I open up about the transition, the emptiness, and the quiet beauty of rebuilding home after a chapter ends.

Whether you're moving through heartbreak, shifting into solo living, or simply feeling like your space doesn’t quite fit anymore, this is your reminder that emptiness isn’t a failure. It’s fertile. It's a beginning.

I’m sharing:

  • Why the “mattress on the floor” phase is sacred

  • The power of anchoring your next chapter in one small object (like a throw pillow)

  • How to create ritual and safety when your nervous system is in survival mode

  • The one thing I deeply regret not doing in my last space, and how I’m doing it differently now

You are not behind. You are rebuilding. And babe . . . it’s going to be beautiful.
