Y’all, this episode with Bara Mann was one that I want you to be a part of.
We talked about belonging, identity, and the stories we tell ourselves—especially the ones that no longer serve us. Bara shared her childhood moments of trying to fit in - and I talked of what that looks like as an adult. I’ve been that chameleon too—fitting in everywhere, but not necessarily showing all of me.
This conversation was about breaking down the invisible walls we put up, and finding courage to speak from our truest place.
We also explored the energy of our words—how our stories hold weight, shape our lives, and ripple into the world. Every time we speak from our truth, we add momentum to the life we want to live.
This episode is a loving invitation to question old stories and come home to yourself.
Grab a seat on the couch. Let’s keep going deeper. Together.
