As one year comes to a close and another begins, this episode is an invitation to pause, breathe, and land softly. A Soft Landing — A New Beginning is a gentle reflection on the season that has been — the busyness, the lessons, the quiet growth, and the moments that shaped us more than we realized.
This isn’t about rushing into resolutions or having everything figured out. It’s about honoring where you are, releasing what no longer serves you, and stepping into a new year with grace, faith, and hope.
If the year stretched you, slowed you down, or taught you unexpected lessons, this episode is for you. Before we begin again, we rest. Before we move forward, we reflect. And before we grow louder, we land softly.
Thank you for being here. Thank you for growing out loud with me.
We don’t always get the apology, the explanation, or the text we hoped for — and that’s okay. In this episode of Growing Out Loud, we talk about what real closure looks like when it doesn’t come from someone else.
It’s about learning to stop waiting for words that may never come and choosing peace for yourself instead. This episode is your reminder that closure isn’t something you receive — it’s something you decide.
What happens when love stops being beautiful and starts costing you your identity? In this episode of Growing Out Loud, we dive into the quiet ways we can lose ourselves in relationships — friendships, romance, even family — and the signs that it’s happening.
Together, we’ll talk about why it happens, the cost of disappearing into someone else’s life, and most importantly, how to begin finding yourself again. With honesty and faith, this episode is a reminder that love should never require you to erase who you are.
It’s possible to be surrounded by people and still feel completely alone. In this episode of Growing Out Loud, we dive into the difference between crowds and true community. Crowds bring attention, but real community brings depth, honesty, and the kind of support that carries you through the hard seasons.
Not every ending needs a villain. Sometimes, you simply grow in different directions. Let's talk about the quiet heartbreak of outgrowing your circle — and why solitude can be sacred.
