  • Episode 6 - Facing Fear and Taking Action
    Aug 24 2025

    Fear never fully goes away, but learning to face it is what allows us to grow. In this episode, I look at why fear shows up, how it tries to protect us, and how we can use it as fuel. I share what's helped me, and why taking action, even when it feels uncomfortable, is the key to moving forward.

  • Episode 5 - Finding Your Purpose
    Aug 17 2025

    As humans, we need purpose. In this episode, I share my personal journey of discovering my own... how my experiences had me questioning things, and ultimately what led me to where I am now. I explore why purpose matters, the misconceptions that hold people back, and practical ways you can start uncovering yours. Whether your purpose is big or small, fixed or evolving, this is about finding the “why” that makes your “how” worth it.

  • Episode 4 - Noticing the Little Moments of Life
    Aug 10 2025

    A more reflective episode this time around. I talk about the importance of the little moments; why we miss them, why I used to miss them, and why they matter more than we think. From how our brains are wired, to the world we live in today, to what I’ve started doing differently, it’s a lighter but thought-provoking reminder to slow down and notice what we so often miss.
