I sit down with my high schooler for a real and unscripted conversation about feeling “behind” in life — and what it means to find your purpose when you don’t feel ready for it.

This isn’t a lecture or a motivational speech. It’s a mother and daughter talking about pressure, expectations, school, mental health, and what it feels like when the world keeps moving and you’re still trying to catch your breath.

If you’ve ever felt late to your dreams, uncertain about the future, or worried that everyone else is ahead of you — this episode is your reminder that your story isn’t over. Sometimes, being “late to the throne” just means you’re growing into the person you’re meant to be.

What we talk about in this episode:

• The pressure of being a teenager in 2025

• Falling behind in school and showing up anyway

• Real talk on mental health and motivation

• Why “late” doesn’t mean “lost”

• How to build your own throne instead of chasing one

Who this episode is for:

• Parents navigating teen years with empathy

• Teens who feel overwhelmed or stuck

• Anyone who feels behind in life, healing, or purpose

• Listeners who love honest, cinematic conversations

Key message:

You’re not too late. Your timing just might be different.
