Ever felt like life’s falling apart but somehow, you’re still the one holding everyone together?

This week, I take you inside the chaos of our busiest season yet. Business stress, basketball coaching, stomach dramas and a moment of real clarity. You’ll hear about the week I ended up in hospital, the unexpected lessons it brought me, and how slowing down didn’t derail me like it used to. We talk business, mental health, parenting pressure, and why having a fridge full of protein is basically my new love language.

This episode isn’t about having it together, it’s about what happens when you don’t, and why that might be the win. If you’re someone who pushes through overwhelm but craves permission to pause, this one’s for you.

Come join me in the mess. I promise it’s relatable as hell.
