I’m in My Early 30s– Here are a Few Things I’m Still Learning
#211. I'm opening up about five things I'm actively learning rather than pretending to have figured out. From adopting patience as a daily practice to learning that disappointment is a fact of life, we’re discussing what I’m currently working through. This isn't about having all the answers—it's about staying curious, staying human, and finding freedom in the messiness of still figuring it out. Join me for an honest conversation about growth, vulnerability, and the beauty of being a work in progress.
