info_outlineThis might be the most personal story I’ve ever shared with you. I spent 92 hours in complete darkness, no phone, no light, no distractions, and what I came away with completely shifted how I see my life and make decisions. In this episode, I’m opening up about the surprising moments, the deep stillness, and the kind of clarity you can only find when everything else fades away. If you’ve ever felt pulled in a hundred directions, I think you’ll really connect with this one.
When I finally stepped out into the first light of dawn, it was like the world was brand new. Every sound, every feeling, every bit of sunlight felt alive. Out of that experience came something I now call Soul Math, a simple way to check in with myself before making decisions, so they feel good in my soul, not just on paper. I’ll walk you through the exact questions I ask myself, and I’ve even made a simple journal page you can use, too.
I’ll also tell you about a big speaking invitation I got in Bali, and the inner struggle it took to say “yes” without guilt. My hope is that this episode gives you space to pause, breathe, and listen to what your soul has to say. And, because I love sharing the little things that keep me feeling energized, I have to tell you about my new Mighty Maca Mango. It’s got the same goodness you already know, but with a fresh, zesty twist that’s perfect over ice or in sparkling water. You can grab it at dranna.com.
