Episode 95: Thirteen and Thresholds: More Trust, Less Worry
On celebrating endings, embracing beginnings, and meeting change with love.
This week marks a milestone: my son’s 13th birthday. While this episode is dedicated to him, the reflections inside are for us all.
In this conversation, I explore the thresholds we all encounter, from childhood to teenage years, from endings to beginnings, from questions answered to questions left open. Through personal stories and practical insights, I share why celebrating the past, staying anchored in the present, and choosing trust over worry can change how we experience life’s transitions.
What you’ll hear in this episode:
Why every age and every season can be your “favorite” when you’re truly present
The bittersweet duality of joy and nostalgia (and how love holds both safely)
How to shift from the frequency of worry into the frequency of trust and peace
Why leaving questions open creates freedom and possibility
How preparation builds confidence, but trust carries you forward
Whether you’re navigating parenting milestones, career changes, or your own next chapter, this episode is an invitation to honor where you’ve been, open yourself to what’s ahead, and trust yourself along the way.
👉 Listen now and step into your next threshold with more trust, less worry.
