Finding yourself again 🫶

I found your profile originally on Tiktok because I was searching how to find me again. You came up and I started from the beginning on Feb 18 of this year and am now on the episode about setting boundaries from May 2023 and this one really hit me and was the “thing” that made it click. I wanted to make sure you know that you make a difference and say thank you 🥰
Excellent

I’ve only listened one episodes and I was surprised to hear there were religious aspects to the pod. I listen to mostly TC so I found this refreshing. I’ll stick around a while :)
