I want to sit with you for just a couple of minutes, mama. Because what I'm about to share with you stopped me in my tracks when I rediscovered it — and I knew I had to bring it straight to you.

It's a poem I first found as a young woman, with no idea how many chapters of my life it would speak to. Divorce or no divorce, it has something to say to every one of us.

In this episode, I'm sharing Autobiography in Five Chapters by Portia Nelson — and unpacking why it matters so much right now, wherever you are in your journey:

- Why we keep walking down the same street — and falling into the same hole — even when our eyes are wide open

- How to take agency over the one thing that's fully in your control right now: your thoughts

- What it actually means to create capacity for yourself to heal in the middle of the hardest chapter of your life

- The simple invitation that could shift everything: is it time to walk down another street?

Find a quiet corner, ground your feet, and take this one in. I promise it'll feed your soul.
