Calling “Cut” on the Life You’ve Outgrown is for anyone who’s realizing the childhood scripts running your adult life may be keeping you stuck — and you’re ready to step into the role of director for your next scene.
You’re not broken. You’re just waking up mid-story.
If your life were a movie…would you actually want to watch it?
Or would you be scrolling, waiting for something to change?
In this episode, we explore how many of the roles, reactions, and patterns we live from today were written long before we had language, boundaries, or choice — and how awareness is the moment you finally get to call “CUT” and choose a new scene.
In this episode, we explore:
Imagining your life as a story — and noticing where you’re on autopilot
Childhood survival roles like The Good Kid, The Strong One, and The Empath
Why repeating patterns doesn’t mean you’re broken — it means you were trained
How healing begins the moment you say “CUT” with self-respect
The role ego plays in filling in blanks and rewriting your script
Real-life stories with my kids that show how ego narratives form early
Soul contracts and why certain people enter (and exit) your story
Why avoiding “sad” emotions also blocks joy and connection
How to choose the next scene without needing to control the entire story
Reflection questions to sit with:
If your life were a movie, what scene are you in right now?
Are you watching from the audience… or sitting in the director’s chair?
What role are you ready to release?
What would it look like to gently — but firmly — call “CUT” on what you’ve outgrown?
