Episode 79: How Do You Want to Show Up? Health Scares, Taking Time to Reset, & Showing Up Authentically

This episode has been six months in the making. There have been a number of things that have happened in the past year, including two health scares, that required me to pause and shift my focus to my health and my family. 

So much of my identity has been wrapped up in posting on Instagram and sharing with my community, but when my health wasn't there, showing up became almost impossible except for my brands and 1:1 clients.

Lately, I’ve been leaning into self-sourcing and letting myself move through these experiences without adding on the extra layer of content creation, unless it feels totally aligned.
