What if nobody ever told you exactly who you were supposed to become?

Maybe you watched. You noticed what was celebrated, what success looked like, and what a “good life” was supposed to include. Somewhere along the way, you started drawing a blueprint.

But was it really yours?

In the Season 2 premiere of The Permission Slip, Nicole sits down with Jenille Marie to talk about the expectations we absorb, the lives we think we’re supposed to build, and what happens when the blueprint stops fitting.

From faith and relationships to self-worth, choosing yourself, and the cost of exercising agency, this conversation asks a question worth sitting with:

Whose blueprint are you following—and do you still want it?
