Birthday Reflections 2025: The Year That Broke Me, Built Me & Forced Me to Pivot | Ep.87

This year… wow. It wasn’t neat. It wasn’t linear. And it definitely wasn’t the “everything finally clicks” chapter I thought it would be. But it was the year that cracked me open, stripped away everything that wasn’t aligned, and rebuilt me into someone stronger, softer, clearer, and more grounded than ever. In this birthday episode, I’m sharing the real story of 2025: the highs, the heartbreaks, the plot twists, the growth, and the moments that forced me to stop, pivot, and redefine myself in ways I did not see coming. This isn’t a highlight reel. This is the truth behind what it looks like to evolve through: • sickness and burnout • unexpected job loss • identity shifts • rebuilding your confidence • losing momentum and finding direction again • navigating the messy middle • and discovering that destruction can actually be direction If you’ve had a chaotic year full of pivots, pressure, breakthroughs, breakdowns, and unexpected clarity, this episode will feel like someone finally put words to what you’ve been carrying. You’re not behind. You’re becoming. And sometimes life has to fall apart for you to finally fall into place. 🎧 Listen now on: Apple • Spotify • YouTube 💬 If this episode resonated, please subscribe + leave a 5 star review.
