Have you ever felt the pull to start something creative, something just for you, but haven’t known where to begin? Maybe there’s a quiet tug inside you that hasn’t been satisfied yet.

In this episode, I share reflections of my journey into motherhood. I realized I had lost sight of my childhood dreams somewhere along the way. Deep down, I always knew I wanted to be more than just a mom or my career. I wanted to write, to create, to share my ideas with the world. I wanted to spark conversations, build community, and make a difference.

The moment I started putting my content out into the world, something awoke within me. “Fulfillment” doesn’t even feel strong enough to capture what I’ve experienced. And it made me think about how everyone deserves the chance to live out their creative dreams.

That’s why I’m sharing the 3 steps that helped me connect with my passions and take real action to make my creative dreams a reality (including launching this very podcast!). 

I hope this episode gives you the nudge to start that thing you’ve been putting off, feeling overwhelmed by, or telling yourself isn’t possible.

Because joy doesn’t just come from being a mom. It comes from living fully and unapologetically as yourself.

In this episode, we cover:

• Why investing in yourself is the first step to uncovering what truly lights you up.

• How to turn big, overwhelming dreams into bite-sized, doable actions.

• The tough (but freeing) time audit I did. And what I let go of to make space for creativity.

• The hidden weight I didn’t even realize I was carrying…and how you might be carrying it too.

• Three simple things you can do this week to start moving your creative dreams forward.
