This episode is a conversation I’ve been holding for a while.

After a season of growth, reflection, and realignment, I’m back on the mic to share honestly where I’ve been, what I’ve been navigating behind the scenes, and why this next chapter of the podcast feels different.

In this unscripted conversation, I talk openly about outgrowing old versions of myself, redefining ambition, and what I'm choosing next.

This is less about having it all figured out and more about telling the truth, naming the shift, and inviting you into what comes next. We’re entering a season of deeper conversations around identity, clarity, refined ambition, and leading your life with intention.

Thank you for being here. This is just the beginning.
