While she doesn’t take them too seriously, she enjoys reading into their meanings for fun and reflection. In this episode, she shares the top five angel numbers that keep showing up, what they represent, and how they’ve connected to her own growth journey. Melanie also opens up about what it’s been like to speak less, listen more, and take intentional pauses—something that’s helped her understand herself in deeper ways. She shares how she’s learned to see “no” not as rejection, but redirection from the highs and lows of the past year, This one’s for anyone who loves a little meaning in the everyday and is learning to trust their own process, one step at a time. ✧ EPISODE TIMESTAMPS 0:00 - Intro 4:00 - Angel numbers on license plates 18:06 - Speaking less, listening more & learning to pause.. 27:48 - Accepting NO's as redirection 35:50 - Outro ✧ LISTEN & FOLLOW Hola Let’s Chat: Spotify: spoti.fi/3Q1chnY Apple Podcasts: apple.co/48BOJNX Amazon Music: amzn.to/3RH85en YouTube: bit.ly/3MmZ6vJ RSS Feed: bit.ly/3Q1lNaH Instagram: @holaletschat ✧ Enjoying the episodes?
