Listen "Halfway Clean, Halfway Grown, Halfway Everything"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode of Jumping Into Jupiter, I open up about the many ways I’ve only ever made it halfway—whether it’s in embracing my Mexican-American heritage, finishing a degree without landing the dream job, or starting a book idea I never wrote. I also share some of the funnier “halfway” stories, like getting halfway fluent in Korean, training for a 5K but never signing up, and cleaning my house only to end up with piles scattered in every room.But halfway isn’t failure—it’s proof that I started. I talk about why we stop halfway, how to reframe it as progress, and most importantly, how I’m choosing to reconnect and actually finish the things that matter most to me.This episode is a reminder that halfway is not the end—it’s the middle. And the middle is where growth begins.
