In this chapter from my new audiobook, I’m pulling back the curtain on the gritty, relentless process of chasing a dream—whether it’s writing a book, parenting four kids, or simply trying to hold it all together without losing your mind. This episode is for anyone who’s ever felt the tension between their big goals and the everyday chaos of life. From the hilarious antics of my daughter to the universal truth of our very real, very valid excuses, I’m sharing a raw and honest look at what it takes to keep going—even when it feels impossible. Let’s talk about why your dream is worth fighting for and how to keep showing up, one messy, imperfect step at a time.
