What if the thing you’re chasing isn’t actually meant for you?
In this episode, we unpack the difference between chasing passion and discovering your natural talents — and why so many creatives, artists, and dreamers get stuck trying to force themselves down paths that don’t fit.
It’s a deep, honest conversation about how what first inspires you might just be a gateway, not a destination. We talk about the danger of clinging to an identity or career goal out of pride, fear, or ego, and why true growth requires flexibility, self-awareness, and the courage to pivot when necessary.
We’ll challenge the idea that you’re “giving up” when you change course and explore how you can only truly find fulfillment when your talent and passion align. If you’ve ever felt like you’re working twice as hard for half the results, or like something isn’t quite clicking, this episode might reveal why — and what to do about it.
This is your permission slip to follow the path that’s actually meant for you.
