content note 💌In this episode I talk about panic attacks, burnout, and the season I felt completely disconnected from myself.If you’re currently moving through something similar, please take care while listening — and honor what your heart + body need right now.This one’s tender. And true.Listen when you’re ready.
In this raw and unfiltered episode, I take you back to 2007 — the year everything cracked open.
Burnout. Panic attacks. A rock-bottom moment that felt like the end… but turned out to be the beginning of everything.
I share the story I’ve kept mostly private — how a full-blown panic attack on the autobahn changed the trajectory of my life, sparked my spiritual awakening, and set me on the path I walk today.
If you’ve ever felt numb, lost, stuck in a job you hate, or terrified to dream again — this one’s for you.
Come listen. Come remember. Come home to yourself.
🎙 In this episode, I share:
The moment everything cracked open — a panic attack on the autobahn that felt like death, but was actually the beginning of a new life.
What it’s like to feel completely numb, directionless, and disconnected — and the slow unraveling that happens when you believe there’s no other option.
Why I chose to feel everything instead of numbing with medication — and how that decision led me to breathwork, somatics, and self-leadership.
The fear of starting over at 27 — going back to school with teenagers, rebuilding belief in myself, and finding purpose through the mess.
How burnout is rarely about overworking — and more about misalignment, suppression, and doing what you don’t love.
The lifelong gift of that breakdown — a deeper capacity to trust, to hold myself, and to live a life that’s fully mine.
