In this special birthday reflection episode, I'm slowing things down and turning inward. I'm sharing where I am in this season of life, what feels solid, what feels unclear, and what I'm intentionally leaving open.

Birthdays always make me pause. They give me space to reflect, to check in with myself, and to notice how much has changed internally and externally. In this episode, I'm asking myself honest questions and inviting you to sit with them too.

This journey is about so much more than money. It's about who we're becoming along the way.
