In this heartfelt catch-up, I pick up where I left off in Episode 2—right after getting sick and facing the unknown. I finally share what I was diagnosed with, how it’s shifted my perspective, and what life has looked like over the past two months. From recovery to rediscovery, this episode is all about growth, resilience, and the little things that have kept me going. Whether you’ve been following my journey or just tuning in, this one’s personal.

This episode’s just me—no script, no guests. I’m sitting with some thoughts about feeling lonely, missing who I used to be, and trying to make sense of where I’m at. It’s not all sad, though. There’s something comforting in saying it out loud, in knowing that even when things feel heavy, there’s still a part of me that believes it’ll get better. If you’ve ever felt stuck in your own head or like you’re drifting a bit, maybe this will feel familiar. Maybe it’ll help.
