Welcome back to The Uncensored Self Podcast.

This episode is raw, intuitive, and totally unscripted. It started on a walk in the woods with my dog—and a thought that came in so clearly, I had to stop everything and hit record.

We’re diving deep into one of the most insidious lies we’ve been told: that we should be realistic. That we should shrink our goals to fit the world’s expectations. That we should play it safe to avoid disappointment. That wanting more is too much.

And I’m here to tell you: I don’t want realistic. I want extraordinary.

Not extraordinary in the flashy, over-the-top, look-at-me kind of way. But extraordinary in the “I see the magic in my ordinary life” kind of way. The kind that makes you feel alive in your body, on fire in your soul, and deeply grounded in your own power.

In this episode, we cover:

  • How “realistic” became a weapon of limitation—and why it’s time to lay it down

  • What most people misunderstand about dreams, desire, and possibility

  • Why your current circumstances don’t get to define what’s available to you

  • How to start playing in the energy of “maybe someday” without needing the how

  • The role of personal power in transforming your entire life from the inside out

This episode isn’t just about dreaming bigger—it’s about remembering who the hell you are. It’s about trusting that your desires aren’t random, they’re divine. And it’s about reclaiming your identity as the creator of your reality, not the victim of your circumstances.

Watch now and learn how to:

  • Shift from settling for the familiar to intentionally creating the extraordinary

  • Call your power back through your thoughts, feelings, and aligned action

  • Stop slamming the door on your desires just because they don’t feel “realistic” yet

  • Get honest about whose version of reality you’re trying to live—and if you even want it
