In this deeply personal episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on a season of my life I’ve mostly kept quiet — one marked by burnout, mental health struggles, and the long road to becoming my own health advocate. I share how years of pushing through exhaustion, dismissing my symptoms, and trusting the wrong medical advice left me feeling like a stranger in my own skin — as a mom, a business owner, and simply as myself. From a traumatic pregnancy and postpartum anxiety to years on the wrong medication, I talk about the moments that broke me open, the doctors who finally listened, and the answers I wish I had found sooner. This isn’t just my story — it’s a conversation for anyone who’s been told “you’re fine” when you know in your gut you’re not. It’s about listening to your body, asking harder questions, and fighting for the care you deserve. Because sometimes the heaviest weight we carry isn’t physical — it’s the one we were never meant to bear at all.
