The Dark Side of the Soft Life (And How I Found My Light)

Affirmation: I shine my light bright enough for me.

Ism: You made it through the night to get to the light.

Theme: Owning your light means embracing your darkness and radiating from the inside out.

The “soft life” looks good on the ‘gram—but the truth is, real softness is earned through the hard stuff. In this special birthday-week episode, I’m celebrating the radiant, light-filled version of myself that emerged from seasons of grief, grit, and growth.

I’m sharing how shadow work, deep reflection, and embracing my full self—light and dark—helped me create a glow that’s rooted in truth, not performance. This is your reminder that the brightest light is born from the darkest nights, and your softness will always be more sustainable when you stop avoiding the hard truth.

Who This Episode Is For:

People chasing the “soft life” without doing the inner work
Women healing from loss, identity shifts, or life transitions
Listeners learning to integrate their shadows with their light
Anyone ready to shine from the inside out without shrinking

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

The real meaning of the soft life (beyond aesthetics)

How to tell when you’re avoiding your shadow work

Common reasons we resist “night seasons” in life
