EP 173: What’s Held Me Back as a Therapist in 2025 (And What’s Pushed Me Forward)
Manage episode 481095002 series 3515138
What if the very things you think are holding you back are actually redirecting you toward your biggest breakthroughs?
In this episode, I open up about what’s truly been challenging for me in 2025 - from personal grief and unpredictable childcare to draining relationships and autoimmune flare-ups. I’m sharing what’s made work hard, what’s made healing harder, and what’s helped me push forward anyway. This is one of those raw, real behind-the-scenes episodes I love to do, not because they’re polished, but because they’re honest. If you’ve ever felt like your dreams are too “delusional” or that life is just throwing too much at once - this is for you. I’m also sharing what’s propelled me forward this year: the power of mindset, the clarity of boundaries, and why I believe being delusional is a strategy, not a flaw.
Whether you’re navigating grief, burnout, or building a business while raising kids, I hope this episode helps you feel seen — and reminds you that you can still succeed, even in the messiest seasons.
