This episode is bittersweet for me. I’m sharing the heartbreaking loss of my German Shepherd, Kona, and what it was like saying goodbye, not just for me, but for my kids, who grew up with her by their side. Grief has a way of stopping time… and also reminding you how precious it is.
From there, we talk about the energy of the new year: the shedding, the forward momentum, and why this one already feels different. I share a manifestation practice I’m trying in 2026, why I’m writing my goals as if they’ve already happened, and how I’m working to release long-held limiting beliefs around love, career, and the idea that you can’t have it all.
