In this episode of Make Your Life Your Legacy, I sit down with Stephanie Benedetto for a deeply human, unscripted conversation about reinvention, intuition, and what it actually takes to follow an inner knowing when logic, comfort, and external approval fall away. We talk about what it means to "jump timelines," not as a spiritual concept, but as a lived experience, including the moments when life clearly pulls us in a new direction, even when we don't yet have language, certainty, or a plan.
Stephanie shares her journey of leaving a 22-year marriage and a successful business, navigating identity shifts, rebuilding her life from the inside out, and ultimately following a visceral call that led her to immigrate to Portugal. We explore what surrender really looks like, the difference between waiting for life to change and choosing it, and how peace becomes possible when we stop outsourcing our decisions to fear, expectations, or future guarantees.
This conversation is for anyone standing at the edge of a transition (personal, relational, geographic, or professional) and wondering how to trust themselves when nothing on the outside can validate the choice yet. If you've ever felt the nudge to rewrite your story but questioned your sanity for listening, this episode is an invitation to come home to your own knowing.
