They tell you moving abroad will change your life, but no one tells you it means saying goodbye to the person you used to be...

When I packed my bags to move to Australia, I thought I was chasing freedom and adventure. And I was. But what I didn’t expect was the grief, the quiet, heavy feeling of saying goodbye to the old version of myself.

No one talks about this part: the identity shift, the sense of erasing who you were to make space for who you’re becoming.

Today, I want to share what that felt like, why it happens, and how I’ve learned to make peace with it.

I didn’t do Hyrox to win. I did it to grow.
To prove to myself and to my kids that doing hard things is how we evolve. That stepping outside your comfort zone isn't just a motivational quote, it's where the real transformation begins.

I got emotional while recording this episode because they are my biggest motivation.

I trained for months, said no to comfort, and faced every doubt head-on. I did it solo, and I did it scared. But I crossed that finish line a different woman.

In this episode, I’m sharing what Hyrox taught me; not just about fitness, but about self-belief, resilience, and showing up when no one’s watching.

This one's for anyone who’s been playing it safe, waiting for the 'right time.' There is no right time. There’s just the decision to go.

But what if the most important part of your transformation isn’t the beginning or the end… it’s the part where everything falls apart?

This episode is about the space no one talks about—the blur, the chaos, the not-there-yet.
It’s messy. It’s uncomfortable. But it’s not meaningless.

And there’s actually a name for it: Nepantla.
A word that’s helped me make peace with being in-between, and maybe it will for you too. Embracing your messy middle can be the game-changer you've been searching for!

Let’s talk about it.

Join me as we explore the beauty of the messy middle, the concept of NEPANTLA and discover how it can change EVERYTHING!

Nepantla" is a Nahuatl word meaning "in-between space" or "middle". It refers to a liminal space, a place of transition or ambiguity, particularly when navigating between two cultures or identities. Nepantla can also represent a space of potential, growth, and resistance.
