225 episodes - English - Latest episode: 14 days ago - ★★★★★ - 23 ratingsWe all know the “shoulds” of personal growth. But what happens when you do them…and they don’t work? What if you feel worse than before you ever discovered personal growth? What if you feel tired, worn down, and like you were sold a lie? Work harder, they said. Morning routines and earlier wake times, they said. But what if there’s another way? What if we can reimagine and redefine personal growth and make it, well, personal? What if there’s a way to be better tomorrow…and still love ourselves today? Without the overwhelm and exhaustion. Well friend, there is.
