In today's episode, I'm talking about one of the most powerful shifts we can make — the moment we realize that what feels like darkness might actually be our rise. I share a story about a brunch with my longtime spiritual advisor, Francesca, who helped me reframe a time of deep uncertainty in my life. What I thought was a dark hallway was actually an ascent — and her words changed the way I see growth, healing, and faith. We'll explore how our perspective can transform even the hardest seasons into something sacred — and how to trust that when life feels unclear, it might be preparing us for what's next. Question to carry into your day: Where in your life can you shift your perspective — from "I'm stuck" to "I'm rising"?
