About this listen

This one's for everyone who's tired of feeling like they have to keep pulling rabbits from a hat to deserve a seat at the table.

In this unscripted solo episode, Amanda challenges herself to just talk. No outline, no plan, no trunk full of wisdom to unpack.

What emerges is a beautiful meditation on recovery, control and the radical act of being enough exactly as you are.

Fresh from re-entering the world after hermit mode, Amanda reflects on the insights that come from working a 12-step program while navigating business networks, social media and the simple act of house-training a new dog.

It's all connected: the way we try to control our environment, manage other people's experiences and reach outside ourselves to fix internal discomfort.

This episode captures the messy, real work of recovery. Not just from substances, but from the addiction to productivity, people-pleasing and the exhausting need to prove your worth through performance.

Amanda shares how she's learning to give her brain a break and trust that she's enough without constantly adding to herself.
