Is It Time to Ghost Your Old Life? Truth, Identity, and Your Next Era
Sat Aug 09 2025
Sometimes the hardest person to be honest with is yourself.
In this episode, I’m sharing the story of how I went from a $5,600-a-month luxury Manhattan apartment and endless freedom…to packing up my life and moving to Florida to step into the love, family, and future I didn’t even know I wanted.
It’s about recognizing when the version of you you’ve been clinging to, no matter how glamorous, independent, or accomplished, has expired. It’s about ghosting the old life that no longer fits, and having the courage to step into the one that’s calling you.
We’ll talk about starting over, rewriting your story, and why telling yourself the truth will get you to your next era faster than anything else.
If you’ve been feeling the pull toward something different, something bigger, this episode is your permission slip to stop fighting it and finally own what you really want.
✨ PS: Enrollment is open for Literary Queens, my signature storytelling workshop for women ready to own their voice and write their most magnetic stories. Join us here.
