In this episode I share a recent emotional breakthrough during my postpartum journey that cracked me open to a new truth: we don't grieve our growth enough. We celebrate milestones, push forward, and aim higher—but rarely do we give ourselves permission to pause and feel the weight of what we’re leaving behind. I explore the primal need to grieve not only loss, but evolution. I speak to the power of vulnerability, the strength in our tears, and the beauty of creating space to honor every version of ourselves—especially the ones we’re outgrowing.
What I Cover:
The underrated necessity of grieving growth—not just breakups or endings, but even our own expansion.
A postpartum breakthrough that helped me see how much I needed to mourn parts of my former self.
Tears are not weakness—they’re power, release, and healing.
Vulnerability is not a liability; it’s where true breakthroughs happen.
Society often skips over the emotional transitions that come with growth—but grieving is primal, healthy, and powerful.
You don’t have to label something as “bad” to feel sad about it ending.
Making peace with your past self is a sacred step in embodying your next level.
Reframing grief as a sign of evolution, not regression.
Why emotional release is part of embodiment, especially in big life transitions like motherhood.
