Unplugged but Not Unscathed: What My Cruise Taught Me About Connection, Chaos, and Letting Go
Manage episode 520445985 series 3571158
Feeling torn between wanting to disconnect—and being terrified of what happens when you actually do? In this episode of Unfiltered Friday, I unpack the real story behind our family cruise and how stepping away from constant productivity changed me in ways I didn’t expect.
This week, I reflect on everything that followed my initial fear of unplugging:
• The surprising peace that comes from losing Wi-Fi
• The chaos, curveballs, and forgotten-passport moments that tested us
• The deep conversations and reconnections that only happen when distractions disappear
• What letting go really looks like when you're used to being in control
• Why this trip reminded me that the universe shows up—even when you don’t feel ready
If you’ve ever struggled with slowing down, taking time off, or being present with the people who matter most, this episode will hit home. It’s raw, honest, and full of reminders that growth often hides inside the messiest moments.
🎧 Listen now for real talk, relatable chaos, and the truth about unplugging in a plugged-in world.
