What happens after you’ve spent years healing your mother wound?

At some point, you have to start living.

In this episode, I’m talking about having the audacity to go after the life you actually want, especially when you didn’t grow up with someone encouraging your dreams, believing in you or teaching you how to believe in yourself.

I share what this looks like in my own life as I return to the parts of myself that have always been there, including writing my first novel, working on a documentary and fully embracing myself as an artist.

We talk about:

• Becoming someone different from who your mother expected you to be
  • Why healing requires more than understanding your pain
  • Building a community that supports who you’re becoming
  • Learning to trust your dreams without needing everyone else to understand them
  • Starting before you know exactly how everything will work
  • Doing the thing because you love it, not because it has to immediately make money
  • Giving yourself permission to change, pivot and want more

If you’ve been doing this work for a while, the question becomes: What are you healing for if you’re not going to change your life?

You don’t need the entire roadmap. You need to trust yourself enough to start and keep going.
