Have you ever found yourself wondering, “Why does life still feel so hard… even when I’ve checked all the boxes?”

Career? Check. Relationships? Check. Maybe family, maybe independence—check, check. From the outside, it looks like success. But inside? There’s restlessness. Quiet exhaustion. That little whisper: “Does this ever get easy?”

In this solo episode, Meghann gets honest about hitting her own wall — the burnout, the unraveling, the terrifying moment she admitted to Kelly she had nothing left to give. She shares how stepping back reshaped her health, her marriage, and her sense of purpose… and why it didn’t magically erase the mess.

Along the way, she introduces five crossroads that every one of us will meet:

• Identity — Who am I without the titles and roles?
• Relationships — Who stretches with me, and who strains against me?
• Purpose — What am I here for, and does it actually matter?
• Capacity — What happens when I finally admit I can’t do it all?
• Trust — Can I keep walking without all the answers?

If you’re feeling grateful and restless, blessed and burned out — you’re not alone. You’re simply at a crossroads. And that doesn’t mean you’re broken. It means you’re becoming.
