Trigger Warning: In this episode, we discuss sensitive topics including domestic abuse, addiction, and teen pregnancy. If these topics are difficult for you, please take care while listening and pause if you need to. You are not alone. ❤️

This week, Maya sits down with Courtney for a raw, inspiring conversation about resilience and starting over. Courtney opens up about her experience with domestic abuse, addiction, and teen pregnancy—sharing the early red flags she missed, the moment she decided to leave, and how she rebuilt her life from the ground up. 🦋

We talk about recognizing unhealthy patterns, choosing yourself (even when it’s hard), and what healing really looks like. Plus, Courtney shares the unexpected hobbies that brought her joy. If you’ve ever felt stuck, powerless, or afraid to start over, this episode is proof that it’s never too late to turn your life around.

Also, please welcome my cat "Meeko" who wanted to clearly be a part of this conversation! haha.
