Expansion is not gentle. It is not passive. And it does not happen while you’re standing still.

In this solo episode of I'll Keep You Wild, we explore expansion as a tug of war between who you’ve been and who you’re becoming. Your past identity and your future self are pulling on opposite ends of the rope, and the middle is being slowly worn down. That dark, uncomfortable middle space is not failure. It’s friction. It’s the moment before the rope snaps.

I dive into why growth feels so heavy when you keep feeding both versions of yourself, and why true expansion requires a full-bodied commitment to the future you, even when it feels terrifying, uncertain, and unfamiliar. The unknown is scary because it asks you to release control, safety, and the identity that once kept you alive.

We talk about the grief that comes with saying goodbye to the version of you that got you here, and why honoring that version doesn’t mean taking them with you. Some identities are meant to be thanked, released, and set free. The cutting of the rope is not loss. It’s liberation.

If you’re in the in-between, the liminal space, the place where nothing feels settled and everything feels raw, this episode is for you. Expansion demands your attention, your energy, and your devotion. And whichever identity you feed is the one that wins.

This is an episode about transformation, nervous system expansion, identity shifts, and becoming the version of you that can hold more, be more, and experience what you desire.
