    Send us a text Content Warning: This episode includes themes of grief, child loss, burnout, and emotional recovery. Please listen with care. Pause if you need to. Your nervous system knows best—and we’ll be here when you're ready.There’s a quiet lie that shaped how I walked into every room:  "I have to be helpful to be loved." In this deeply personal and unfiltered episode, I unravel how that belief shaped my identity as the helper, the overachiever, the woman who never asked for help—until I lost my daughter, Kenna. What followed was a reckoning with grief, identity, and the truth of my worth. This episode is for anyone who has: Tied their value to their outputFelt guilty for restingBeen the strong one until they couldn't beWondered who they are beyond being "useful"We’ll explore: The quiet programming that keeps us hustling for worthHow grief becomes a brutal but honest revealerWhat happens when we finally let ourselves be heldThe truth your body knows, even when your mind resistsYou’ll also be guided through a gentle journal prompt to help you uncover the lie you’ve believed to stay safe—and what truth you’re ready to live instead. This isn’t a pep talk. It’s a permission slip to feel. What is the lie I’ve told myself to stay safe? And what truth am I ready to live? Let it be messy. Let it be sacred. Let it be yours.  Thank you for joining me on Vivid Vulnerability. Subscribe to stay connected, and if this conversation resonated, share it with someone ready to lead from truth.
