I almost didn’t share this—because, of course, I thought I wasn’t ready yet.
In this episode, I talk about how I turned meditation into a daily practice (15 weeks and counting!), what I actually learned from my certification, and why I still hesitate—even when I know better. From resisting change to realizing that waiting until you’re ready is a trap, this is a reminder to just start.

I know ‘mediocre’ can sound harsh. Bear with me and read this through to the end. It has taken a ‘radical’ stance to reframe a deeply ingrained need for control.

I also share my favorite affirmations and insights on adjusting expectations and being kind to oneself as part of the journey.
