This is the episode I never thought I’d record…

In this deeply personal installment of Golden Girl, I open up about a major life shift that’s changed everything—from my healing journey to how I view “home.”

After battling mysterious health issues, I discovered mold in my living space, and the heartbreaking news that followed: nearly everything I owned was contaminated.

But what seemed like a devastating loss… turned into a profound gift.

Letting go of my belongings taught me how to find safety within myself, to embrace impermanence, and to trust that what’s next can be even better.

In this episode, I share:

- How nervous system regulation played a key role in my healing

- Why losing everything led to a deeper connection to everything that matters

- What “freedom” means to me now

- And the exciting new beginnings I’m stepping into

✨ If you’ve ever faced a moment where life stripped everything away—this is for you. You’re not alone, and this chapter might just be your turning point.
