More Episodes

Today's podcast episode is one of my favorite so far. You know how we can get so caught up in waiting for that ultimate end goal, like that dream job or the perfect partner? Well, let me remind you, it's crucial to appreciate the beauty and growth that happens along the way. Life is built in those ups and downs, those trials and tribulations, and even those not-so-great decisions. These are the moments that truly shape our greatness, our memories, and our personalities.

I also talk about something we all struggle with at times: comparison. It's so easy to look at others and think they have it all figured out while we're still on the journey. But here's the truth, my friends - every single person out there has their unique journey, just like you and me. And for every person you admire, trust me, there's someone out there admiring you and thinking you've got it all together. Let's change the narrative of feeling alone in this journey and start supporting each other along the way.

I also talk about embracing self-discovery during those waiting seasons. They can be such incredible opportunities for self-reflection and personal growth. Take this time to really get to know yourself, explore your passions, and embrace your individuality. Because when you eventually find your person or achieve those dreams, you'll be even more confident in who you are and what you bring to the table. 

I hope you love this episode xoxo
