Dr Shafer reflects on the growth of her podcast, Talks with Dr. Shafer, and how it has evolved over time. Dr. Shafer discusses the different perspectives she could take on her growth, including feeling ashamed of earlier episodes or comparing her show to others. However, she chooses to be grateful for the growth and to lean into the future with excitement and authenticity, and to practice gratitude for the many purposes she is working towards every day. She emphasizes the importance of leaning into one's future and showing up as oneself in the world, no matter the growing pains we may need to go through to get there.
