Welcome to this space, where we explore self-love as the foundation for living a truly full life, not a perfect life, but a full one. We'll go deep into the mindset shifts, the heart shifts, the messy middle, and the beautiful breakthroughs that happen when you finally decide to put yourself first. I share my personal Comfort Zone Challenge, the real, unfiltered stories of me attempting things I've always told myself I'm just "not good at." Spoiler: it doesn't always go smoothly. But that's kind of the point. And I connect with incredible women who have helped me chart my own self-love adventure. Sharing their wisdom, their stories, and their honesty will leave you feeling seen. So take a breath, settle in, and let's get to charting self love.

    About This Episode In this episode I bring some real talk about my fear of community and connection, and share how this comfort zone challenge created itself without me even realizing at first.

But, it may be working sooner than I thought. I recently stepped way out of my comfort zone by reconnecting with an old friend. That sounds nice, lunch or coffee right? But after the loss of community and friendships in my life it was no easy feat.
