Part 1: From Lost to Found: How Self-Trust Changed Everything for Me

I would love to hear what comes up for you. Send me a text message :)

Welcome back to Cracked Open. Today, I'm taking you behind the scenes of my life and opening up about what the last year has been like for me as I've leaned into self-trust. This episode is the first of a raw and honest three-part series filled with moments of clarity, powerful practices, and a whole lot of growth and freedom.
If you've ever felt lost, constantly looking outside yourself for answers, only to realize the validation you crave isn’t out there, you might want to stick around and keep listening.
I’m sharing the real, raw story of how everything changed when I finally chose self-trust over external approval. It wasn’t an easy path—letting go of what others think never is—but it was SO worth it. This shift opened the door to deep, unexpected transformation in my career, relationships, and myself.

Here’s a taste of what you’ll discover in this episode:

• The Moment of Clarity – How I realized that self-trust was the key to moving forward and why it felt like both a risk and a revelation.
• The Practices That Built Self-Trust – Simple, life-changing habits and a powerful exercise you can steal.
• The Surprising Results – Choosing myself led to career breakthroughs, viral moments, deeper connections, and a profound sense of freedom.

Please join me as I walk you through the practices and mindset shifts that helped me transform from feeling lost to truly found. Remember to subscribe—this is just part one of the series!
