Not just in relation to kids or family, but in how you move through the world with clarity, confidence, and discernment. This episode is part reflection, part cultural commentary, and part reminder that confidence is something earned through lived experience, not rushed timelines. We’re unpacking: What it means to become more secure, settled, and self-assured with timeHow “auntie energy” shows up as wisdom, boundaries, and calm authorityLetting go of urgency, comparison, and external validationWhy aging can feel expansive, freeing, and deeply empowering If you’ve noticed yourself caring less about approval, trusting your instincts more, and stepping into rooms differently than you used to—this episode is for you.

    Girl, Take Your Own Advice

    Allison gets real about a habit she knows all too well: not taking her own advice. No sugarcoating, no inspirational spin — just the honest truth about what it looks like to hype everyone else up while quietly ignoring the wisdom she hands out like candy. It’s about sitting in the in-between, recognizing her own patterns, and finally admitting that giving good advice is easy… living it is the real work. In this episode we talk about: What avoiding your own advice reveals about identity and self-worthLetting go of the expectations you place on yourselfTrying to find direction when you know what to do but still don’t do itThe strange clarity that shows up when you stop running from your own truth So, if you’ve ever told someone exactly what they needed to hear while your own life was giving “girl, be serious,” this one’s for you. We’re talking honesty, humility, and a whole lot of real life self-dragging.

    The Group Chat Can Save You

    In this episode of Allison’s Corner, Allison is diving into something deeply tender and transformational: the idea that friendship is its own kind of community. As we navigate adulthood, healing, and hyper-independence, real friendship can sometimes feel like a luxury—but what if it’s actually a necessity? What if the people we love are not just companions, but soft landing places, sacred mirrors, and co-creators of joy? This episode is part storytelling, part soul work, and part reminder that we’re not meant to do life alone. We’re unpacking: Why friendship is more than just vibes—it’s a form of chosen familyThe difference between being supported and being seenHow to recognize when a friendship is feeding your spirit vs. draining itWhat it looks like to build community as a grown woman with boundaries, softness, and standards If you’ve ever longed for deeper connections, questioned the shifting nature of your friend group, or are learning how to ask for what you need in your platonic relationships—this episode is for you. So pour something warm, take a deep breath, and let’s talk about the beauty and power of real friendship.
