Hi my loves 🦋 In today's episode I’m reflecting on the year that changed me the most — the year I was navigating chronic illness, grief, mental exhaustion, and the slow process of rebuilding myself. In this episode, I share the five lessons that truly carried me: surrender, self-compassion, releasing perfectionism, letting go of comparison, and finding faith again.
If you’re moving through illness, depression, grief, or any hard season, I hope this brings softness to your day and reminds you that you’re not behind, you’re not doing it wrong, and you’re already healing more than you think. Next week, we’ll go deeper into everything I’ve learned specifically about grief.
