Lately, I’ve been thinking about the wisdom we often overlook in our fast-paced world—how the experiences of those who came before us can guide us through uncertainty, and how sharing our own stories can create connections that heal. In this episode, I’m opening up about a time of transition in my life—one that taught me that even in moments of chaos, there’s freedom in embracing imperfection. It’s a reminder that we’re never alone in our struggles and that real growth happens when we allow ourselves to be vulnerable. We’ll explore why wisdom shouldn’t be something we commodify, how the fear of judgment can silence voices that need to be heard, and why intergenerational conversations matter more than ever. Because when we create space for honest storytelling—without the pressure of branding or financial gain—we allow wisdom to flow freely, just as it should. This episode is for anyone searching for guidance, for those who feel unheard, or anyone needing a reminder that their story matters. It’s about honoring the voices that shaped us, embracing our own narratives, and fostering a culture where wisdom is shared openly and without fear. Drop a comment, share your thoughts, and let’s have a real conversation about the power of storytelling, connection, and learning from one another.     _________________________________     About Chrisette Michele: Chrisette Michele is a Grammy Award Winning Recording Artist, Newly Crowned Ted x Talk Speaker who has just launched her brand-new podcast “Come Back Sis”.
