This week, we unpack that all-too-familiar invisible line — the moment when the world stops cushioning your fall and starts expecting you to stand on your own and take responsibility. Whether you're still processing your own transition from childhood or helping someone else through theirs, this one's for you! We start our episode with an anecdote about a kindergartener getting in trouble (and a surprisingly compassionate response) and then delve into a deep reflection on adulthood, self-sufficiency, and those harsh but pivotal “golden moments” that force us to grow up and thrive.We talk about:👉 The subtle shift from protected to responsible👉 What happens when life stops giving you the benefit of the doubt👉 How resilience and clarity can fuel breakthroughs👉 The hidden costs of being over-cushioned (yes, even in adulthood)👉 Why self-awareness — not just support — might be the real transition toolAnd we end, as all serious conversations should, with some funny moments around the most shocking things we can find on Facebook Marketplace.
