In this episode, I’m pausing my usual storytelling series to talk about something that has shaped every chapter of my journey—the courage to feel what hurts. For years, I walked through waves of loss, grief, shame, addiction, and personal reckoning. These weren’t quick moments of pain; they were seasons of life that broke me open again and again.
I used to think strength meant keeping it together. Now, I know real strength comes from allowing myself to feel what hurts—fully and honestly. Because pain doesn’t disappear when we bury it; it only heals when we face it.
Whether you’re walking through your own shadow work, grief, or heartbreak, this conversation is about honoring your humanity, finding your power, and stepping into freedom. Healing isn’t about perfection—it’s about presence, courage, and love.
Key Takeaways:

• Pain doesn’t disappear when ignored—it heals when felt.
• Our shadow holds the keys to deep personal freedom.
• Vulnerability is not weakness; it’s the birthplace of transformation.
• Healing allows us to show up more fully for ourselves and others.

If this episode resonates, I’d love to hear from you. Reach out, share your story, and let’s walk this healing path together.
