When the Skin No Longer Fits: Discomfort, Identity & Growth
Description
In today’s episode, we dive into the lessons behind shedding, inspired by the year of the Snake 🐍 . The quiet, raw, beautifully uncomfortable space between endings and beginnings.
It’s a reflection about:
• the fear of being misunderstood• the ways we unconsciously hide• the identities we outgrow• and the space between version of us that’s trying to emerge and the one we're ready to release
This year has stretched so many of us, reshaping our relationships, our bodies, our businesses, our sense of self. I share my own reflections on using my voice more boldly, trusting my expression, and recognizing the masks I didn’t realize I was still wearing.
We explore the symbolism of the Snake year, the tension of the in-between, and the three natural phases every transformation moves through: awareness, integration, and embodiment.
If you’re navigating a season of discomfort, transition, or subtle unraveling… this episode is a reminder that nothing is wrong.
You’re simply growing beyond the skin that once kept you safe.
