In this empowering episode of the EmpowerMoms Podcast, Alex and Chauntelle dive into the idea of the “myth of arrival”—the belief that we’ll one day hit a magical endpoint where everything feels complete. They explore how real growth comes not from reaching a final destination, but from embracing the ongoing journey of personal and professional evolution.

Whether you’re a mom, an entrepreneur, or navigating your own self-discovery path, this episode is a grounding reminder that fulfillment isn’t found at the finish line—it’s built in the everyday steps we take.
