Episode Synopsis

Ever catch yourself longing for the kind of care you didn’t have to ask for? When meals appeared like magic, responsibilities were someone else’s job, and you could just be without guilt or explanation?In this episode, we’re peeling back the layers of adulthood—the pressure to be perfect, the loneliness of not feeling understood, the constant push to grow and evolve even when all you want is a nap. I talk about the invisible net of care that quietly disappeared, and what it’s been like learning to rebuild that safety for myself, piece by piece.I also share what’s actually helped me: the mindsets I’ve built, the small acts of self-support, and the questions that helped me stop waiting for someone else to save me.So if you’ve ever felt like being an adult is a little too much—and maybe, just maybe, you miss being held without having to earn it—this one’s for you.Let’s talk. Let’s feel. Let’s unlearn.
