67. 25 Things I’ve Learned in 2025
If this year stretched you, challenged you, or changed you in ways you didn’t expect, this episode is going to land. I’m breaking down the 25 lessons that shaped me in 2025, from trusting timing and rebuilding my business to learning how to rest, ask for help, set boundaries, and let myself evolve without guilt. These are the truths I learned the hard way and the mindset shifts that kept me moving when motivation disappeared and old fears resurfaced.
We talk about healing not being linear, why consistency beats intensity, how confidence comes from action, and why you’re never actually behind in your own life. You’ll hear the stories behind the scenes, the moments that pushed me to grow, and the reminders I wish I had when things felt heavy or uncertain.
