Three moments in 24 hours. Each one pointing to the same truth. Each one asking: when are you going to stop pretending you're not this?
In this vulnerable episode, I share what it actually feels like to stand at an identity threshold—not the comfortable kind where you know what's on the other side, but the kind where stepping through means you can't go back.
I walk you through three pivotal moments that happened within two days: a mentor's response that I'd written down before she even said it to me, an assignment that made my body tense with recognition, and a therapy session where a full-body realization hit about my relationship with darkness and crisis.
This isn't about making sweeping proclamations or becoming someone new. It's about recognizing when your body is telling you the truth, understanding what threshold work actually feels like, and learning to distinguish between "are you ready?" and "are you willing?"
You'll discover:
✨ The physical sensations that signal you're standing at a threshold
✨ Why hiding your gifts creates the very self-doubt you're trying to avoid
✨ What it means to be a threshold walker (and that final threshold I've held space for)
✨ How to recognize when you're at your own identity threshold
✨ Why thresholds don't wait for you to be ready—they just keep appearing until you walk through
If you've been softening your truth, hiding your gifts, or waiting to be ready before claiming who you actually are, this episode will help you recognize the threshold you're standing at.
