Have you ever hit a point where you’ve been pouring your heart into something—a project, a dream, your calling—and now you find yourself wondering… Is this still worth it? Am I even on the right path anymore?

Hitting this wall is almost like a rite of passage in the pursuit of what matters to your heart. Elizabeth Gilbert, author of Eat, Pray, Love, wrote consistenly for 20 years before she “made it” with the famous book. In her book, Big Magic, she she talks about eating “shit sandwiches” as her measure for whether or not she wanted to keep devoting herself to writing.

This episode is your gut check for those moments of doubt and fear, especially when the road feels long and the results aren’t showing up as quickly as you hoped.

To be clear, this is not about cheerleading you to keep going, because that’s not always the most aligned path!

I’ll share two clear questions you can ask yourself whenever you feel stuck between quitting and continuing. These questions will help you get honest with yourself, reconnect to your “why,” and see whether it’s time to keep going, change directions, or let something go with peace.

Whether you’re chasing a big dream, nurturing a creative project, or simply trying to stay aligned with what lights you up, this conversation will help you cut through the overthinking and find clarity on your next step.

Let’s figure out if what you’re working on is truly right for you—or if it’s time to shift your energy toward something new. See you in the episode 🎧✨

You know those moments where you’ve tried everything—looked at the situation from every angle, asked for advice, journaled your heart out—and still... no clarity?

It’s frustrating! And maybe even feels a little bit helpless.

If you’re feeling stuck—whether in a creative block, a life decision, or a habit you just can’t seem to shift—this episode is your invitation to stop pushing and soften your grip.

We’ll explore the wisdom of Savasana, the final resting pose in yoga, and how clarity arises not through effort, but through rest. In the thick of things, it’s hard not to ruminate and try to figure it all out; but that’s not how our brains work! I tell you about this in the episode.

✨ And at the end, I’ll guide you through a 10-minute Savasana meditation to help you drop into stillness and reconnect with the clarity that’s been waiting for you all along.

Hit play and let’s start making progress toward your dreams! 💫🎧

Feeling stuck or afraid to show up fully? In this short, powerful episode, we talk about what it really means to stay small —and why we do it even though it sabotages us.

If you're tired of holding yourself back from your creative dreams, your truth, or your heart’s calling, you’re not alone. Instead of staying stuck because of fear, perfectionism, or the desire to please others, this episode will help you reconnect to your truth and take your next brave step.

🌿 This is your reminder that dimming your light does not make others shine brighter - it only leaves the world a little dimmer.
