• Season 2 Episode 9: Things that aren't meant for you (even when you want them to be)
    Apr 2 2026

    This episode is a candid conversation about letting go… even when you don’t fully want to.


    I talk about that feeling of knowing something isn’t right for you, but still trying to hold onto it anyway. Whether it’s a person, a situation, or just an idea of how you thought things would go.


    We get into how confusing that in-between stage can be, when you’re not fully at peace but you’re also not ready to walk away. And how sometimes things leaving your life isn’t rejection, it’s actually protection or redirection.


    It can be hard to accept that not everything is meant to stay, but learning to lean on God and trust His plan makes it a little easier.

    If you’re struggling to let go of something right now, this is for you 🤍

  • Season 2 EPS 8: Things will get Better (even when it feels like it won't)
    Mar 19 2026

    This episode is a candid conversation about growth, change, and those moments when life feels overwhelming. I open up about a time when I didn’t want to be here anymore, and how things slowly started to feel lighter again.


    I talk about what a growth mindset actually means, how to deal with change (like moving, losing people, and outgrowing old versions of yourself), and why things don’t stay this heavy forever.


    If you’re struggling right now or going through a change in life right now, this is for you.

  • Season 2 EPS 6: Making Vision Boards and Setting Intentions
    Feb 19 2026

    Does anyone else feel like this year is going by quickly?

    Join me in having a mini check-in and re-evaluating the goals I set at the start of the year to really narrow down what my intentions for the year are.

    I personally find vision boards help me to visually see my goals for the year and help me visualise what I want.

    Listen now if you want easy steps on what to add to your vision board, how to make one and how to make sure you'll achieve what's on it!

  • "Why else live if not for Love?" - Valentine's Day Edition EPS
    Feb 7 2026

    This episode is inspired by one of my favourite musicals and one of my favourite quotes: "Why else live if not for love?" With Valentine's Day around the corner, I've been reflecting a lot on love, especially how it shows up in friendships, creativity, and life overall. I talk about how past hurt can shape how we connect with people, why it can be easier to distance ourselves and how to let love expand in our lives.

  • Reflecting on 2025
    Dec 27 2025

    As 2025 comes to a close, I wanted to pause — not to list achievements or highlight reels, but to reflect on the lessons this year quietly taught me.

    In this episode, I share the things I learned about self-belief, mental health, accountability, and doing things even when they scare you. We talk about outgrowing people, letting go of the need for external validation, protecting your peace, and choosing what actually makes you happy.

    This is a grounding conversation for anyone who feels like 2025 changed them in ways they can’t fully explain yet. If this year felt messy, uncomfortable, or quietly transformative — this episode is for you.

  • Let yourself be Uncomfortable
    Nov 27 2025

    In today’s episode, I’m talking about something we all avoid but secretly need: being uncomfortable. From missing home to stepping into new seasons of life, discomfort shows up in so many ways — but it’s also where real growth happens. I dive into why comfort feels like control, why discomfort feels like chaos, and how society glamorises glow-ups while skipping the messy middle that actually builds us.


    If you’ve been scared to take the next step, start something new, or sit with feelings that don’t make sense yet, this episode is your reminder that discomfort isn’t a sign to stop — it’s a sign you’re evolving. Let yourself grow, even when it feels messy.
