I got a new job.

And I am so grateful.

But if I’m being honest… I still feel lost.

This episode is about employment, unemployment, and everything in between.The waiting.The rejection emails.Regretting my degree.Being in debt.Having no savings.Wanting benefits.Wanting stability.Wanting to feel proud of myself.

I talk about how uncomfortable it felt not working.How every day off didn’t feel like rest — it felt like laziness. I felt wotless. How I couldn’t even enjoy slowing down because I felt like I hadn’t “earned” it.How guilt followed me into my quiet moments.

And now that I have a job… I thought that feeling would disappear.

It didn’t.

I keep saying in this episode, “I just want better for myself.”And I meant that in every way.

Better doesn’t always mean 'dream career'.Sometimes it just means security.Peace.Breathing room.A savings account.A job with benefits.A version of myself I don’t feel disappointed in.

If you’ve ever felt behind…If you’ve ever looked at your life and thought, “How did I end up here?”If you’ve ever felt guilty for resting while also feeling exhausted from trying…

You are not alone.

We are in this together.
