This episode is less polished insight, more a naming of what was tangled and unspoken at the time. I share seven things I was afraid to say out loud: fears, opinions, and unresolved thoughts that I hadn’t yet worked through.

If you’re sitting in that space too, I hope this offers a sense of recognition and relief.
