In this episode, I’m challenging one of the oldest love clichés: the idea that love should be blind.

I don’t believe that.

In fact, I believe the opposite.

Love — real, honest, soul-deep love — should see everything. It should see the shadows, the patterns, the imperfections, the neurodivergence, the grief, the healing, the awkward, the divine. Love should witness us in our wholeness… not just the curated, easy-to-hold parts.

I share my thoughts on why being fully seen is one of the greatest acts of love — in partnership, in friendship, in community, and in how we love ourselves.

This episode is both a reflection and a reclamation.

Because I don’t want love that turns away. I want love that stays.

That looks directly at what’s hard to hold, and says:

“I see you. I’m still here.”

If you’ve ever felt unseen, misunderstood, or mistaken for too much — this one’s for you. 💛

This week, I talk about an upcoming event I’m so excited to be part of — The Maine Book & Print Fest this September — and how I’ll be using it as a space to gather and honor stories from the community in a really tender way. I’ll have a special interactive booth where folks can write love letters to their future selves, share grief and gratitude reflections, or simply show up and be witnessed.

Some of those stories will be shared in future podcast episodes through a new series called “Stories That Shape Us.” I can’t wait to hold space for the voices and truths that find their way to me that weekend.

This episode is about evolution, alignment, and the fire that keeps it all going.

Come sit with me. 💛

In this episode, I explore the anatomy of trust—not as something I've mastered, but as a path I'm still walking. I open up about my ongoing journey of learning to trust my own body, mind, and spirit after years of second-guessing. It’s a tender conversation about what it means to keep coming back to yourself, one moment at a time. ✨
