Episode Summary*Trigger Warning: In this episode, I talk about things like death, dying, and the meaning of life. If this is a tender topic for you, please take care while listening or skip this one if you need to.In this deeply personal solo episode, I’m celebrating one year of this podcast—one year of showing up, passing the mic, and growing alongside you. One year of THE BEST and most incredible podcast guests. One year of so much love for interviewing and witnessing women change and shift as they tell their stories.But this isn’t just a look back. It’s also a release. A letting go of the heavy pressure to have a purpose, and an honest reflection on what I’ve found instead. If you've ever felt like you’re chasing clarity or waiting to feel “on mission,” this one’s for you. What You’ll Hear in This Episode:A raw reflection on what one year of podcasting has taught meWhy I’m choosing to surrender the idea of having a clearly defined “purpose”The pressure we put on ourselves to figure it all out—and how it can quietly hold us backWhat I’m embracing now instead of purpose: presence, impact, and alignmentAn invitation to trust that you’re already enough, already worthy, already where you need to beA love note to every listener who has walked this journey with meHow I’ll be showing up differently in the next chapter of this podcast and beyondIf this resonated with you or if you loved this solo style of episode, send me a message and let me know!
