When a chapter closes, it can feel like you’re back at square one.

Like all the time, effort, and growth somehow disappeared.

But that’s not true.

In this episode, I talk about what it really means to “start over” — and why you’re not actually starting from scratch. You’re starting from experience. From resilience. From lessons you didn’t even realize you were building.

We explore reinvention vs. integration, small daily growth, and how refinement often matters more than a dramatic comeback.

You’re not back at the beginning.

You have more awareness now.

More discernment.

More clarity about what works and what doesn’t.

You’re building on everything you’ve lived.

Your life is not over.

What happens when the dream you were building toward changes… or ends?

When the version of your life that once made sense no longer fits?

In this episode, I sit with the quiet, disorienting space that follows the loss of a dream—careers, relationships, faith, or identities that shaped who we thought we were becoming. Not to fix it. Not to reframe it. Just to name it.

This is a conversation about the in-between. About grieving dreams that didn’t fail—they just finished. About learning to trust yourself again after things fall apart. And about realizing that not knowing who you are right now doesn’t mean you’re lost or behind.

If you’re questioning who you are after life changed direction, this episode is for you.

You don’t need answers yet. You’re not late. You’re becoming.

There was a longer pause between episode two and this one than I planned—and instead of apologizing for it, I realized it perfectly fits what this episode is about.

If you’ve ever felt like you’re late to your own life…

like everyone else got the timeline and you somehow missed it…

this episode is for you.

We talk about the invisible clock we measure ourselves against, the shame that comes from comparison, and why pauses, detours, and rest aren’t signs of failure—they’re often signs of becoming.

You’re not behind.

You didn’t miss your moment.

Your life is not over.
