What happens when you can't fix what's hurting you? A year into a painful family estrangement, I'm sharing the things I almost didn't say out loud. The grief, the anger, the questions - and what I'm discovering about finding hope, taking care of myself, and continuing to live when the story isn't over.

This episode explores why making big decisions can feel so heavy, especially when both choices hold something you deeply value. Through my own struggle with where to call home, I question the pressure to find the “right” answer and consider what changes when we give ourselves permission to choose, change our minds, and trust what unfolds.

What happens when something you really want slowly starts to feel like something you have to do? The pressure adds up.

In this episode, I’m taking you inside my mind in real time. I was stuck - on the podcast, my space, even volleyball - and instead of looking for another answer, I decided to get curious about what was actually happening underneath it all.

With a little help from Chatty (yes, ChatGPT), I started pulling at the thread. What I thought was procrastination or perfectionism led somewhere I didn’t expect: control, responsibility, obligation - and a realization about desire that stopped me in my tracks.

Someone described my first episode as “raw,” and my brain immediately decided what that meant. Then volleyball got me thinking about showing up, being wanted, how we expect other people to show up for us - and the scoreboards we quietly keep for ourselves.

How much of what we experience is what actually happened, and how much is the story we’ve attached to it?

In this episode, I’m talking about the rules we carry, the lens we see through, being a little gentler with ourselves, and what might happen when we get curious enough to question what we think we already know.

Who made the rules, anyway?

What is UnveilHer? Why “unveil”? And who exactly is “her”? August 12th is a monumental day for me. It's not only my 50th birthday (happy birthday to me!!!), it’s the day I finally said yes to putting my voice - all of me - out into the world. And I get to do that with you. We're in for a ride, and I can't wait to see what comes next. Welcome to UnveilHer.

Uncut. Unedited. Down to the wire. This trailer for UnveilHer is not exactly the way it was planned, but exactly the way it was supposed to be.
