A dead car battery forced me into something I rarely experience anymore: silence.

This episode is about the discomfort of being alone with our thoughts, the fear of listening to that little voice inside us, and why slowing down might be the first step to reclaiming the place we take in our own lives.

Fear of being judged often shows up when we step outside the roles that once felt safe.

In this episode, I reflect on my own experience of being seen, starting this podcast, putting myself out there, and realizing how differently we treat ourselves compared to others.

A quiet reflection on identity, fear, and choosing to take your place anyway.

What does “me time” really mean and why does it feel so hard to make space for it?

In this episode, we talk about what me time actually is, why it’s not selfish but necessary, and how small, intentional moments can help us slow down, reconnect, and avoid living on autopilot.
From daily rituals to gentle boundaries, this conversation is an invitation to choose yourself without guilt, even in a busy, full life.

Welcome to The Place I Take.

This first episode is an introduction, not just to this podcast, but to the questions that inspired it.

It’s a space for those moments when life feels full, yet something feels missing.

For the quiet doubts we don’t always share.

And for the need to slow down and reconnect with ourselves.

The Place I Take isn’t about having everything figured out.

It’s about becoming more aware of the place you take, in your own life and in the lives of others.

If you’ve ever felt like you were living on autopilot, this episode is for you.
