A quote: "Stop Living For Others: A Raw Conversation on Anxiety, Purpose & The Power of Choosing Yourself." In this vulnerable conversation with Callan Faulkner, I'm pulling back the curtain on my journey from constant hustle to intentional living. For the first time, I'm sharing the messy, beautiful process of choosing myself - even when it meant disappointing others.

In this raw discussion, I open up about: 🌱 Why I was working until 1am (and how it was destroying my health) 💫 The truth about "losing" friendships while finding yourself 🤍 How quantum leaps happen when you stop waiting for permission ⚡️ Breaking free from people-pleasing and reactive living 🧠 The reality of putting yourself first (and why it's not selfish) 💭 What happens when you finally start trusting yourself

Key moments we dive into:

• The anxiety-driven cycle of "proving my worth"
• Why having 50 friends was keeping me stuck
• How spiritual growth transformed my relationship with time
• The uncomfortable truth about setting boundaries
• What it really means to show up as your authentic self

Whether you're struggling with people-pleasing, feeling stuck in reactive patterns, or sensing there's something bigger waiting for you on the other side of comfort - this conversation offers a real look at what it takes to choose yourself.

For anyone who's ever felt guilty about prioritizing their growth, who's afraid of disappointing others, or who knows deep down they're meant for more - this one's for you. Let's talk about what it really means to live intentionally.
