  • SELF-IMPROVEMENT

This podcast experience can only be described as: the voice notes only your most trusted people hear, meets process group therapy disguised as a group chat. Tune in as we blend commentary, H.O.T. (honest, open, and transparent) stories, practical insight, and interviews with people doing meaningful work. Think somewhere between Dionne from Clueless — keeping it real while helping you make over your life — and Ms. Norbury from Mean Girls — pushing you to do the work that actually changes it. This is a good place to think out loud, ask better questions, and take what’s useful with you.

    001: Becoming Someone New

    Most of us are constantly chasing a destination—whether it’s success, acceptance, or happiness—only to realize the real journey is about who we are becoming. In this episode, I share my heartfelt story of how life’s hardest seasons, including mental health battles and marriage challenges, became the foundation for my growth and purpose. If you’re at a crossroads, questioning your path, or longing for a deeper sense of meaning, I hope my journey inspires you to embrace transformation over perfection.I dive into intimate insights from my decade in online entrepreneurship and my profound spiritual journey from trauma to trust. You'll hear about how my past struggles with anxiety, depression, and identity shaped my current outlook; the power of radical honesty and vulnerability in healing and building trust; and why I chose 'becoming' as my word of the year to guide intentional living. Through raw storytelling, I break down how my hard-won lessons in marriage, faith, and self-awareness are helping me—and hopefully you—step into the next level of who we’re meant to be.In this episode, we explore the concept of ‘becoming’ as a continuous process that requires slow, honest, and often uncomfortable work. I discuss the importance of trusting yourself after trauma, the role of radical transparency in relationships, and how to genuinely grieve what you thought life would look like while embracing what it is becoming. This isn’t just about personal growth—it’s a call to intentionally craft a life rooted in hope, authenticity, and purpose.Why does understanding who you are becoming matter now more than ever? Because without this awareness, we risk staying stuck in old narratives, missing the beauty and opportunity of the present moment. My journey offers a blueprint for anyone ready to stop chasing destinations and start living the transformation that unfolds step by step, day by day. Whether you’re navigating marriage, faith, or simply trying to find your footing — this episode will inspire you to embrace your becoming and step confidently into your next chapter.Timestamps:Introduction and personal journey [0:00]Insights from entrepreneurship and spiritual growth [1:23]The power of radical honesty and choosing 'becoming' [5:03]Exploring the concept of ‘becoming’ [9:34]Why understanding who you are becoming matters [17:29]I'm a self-proclaimed professional yapper who decided to overshare on a hot mic every week, just in case the stories, interviews, and practical tips shared here could help someone change their life for good.I’d love to hear from you!
