In this episode of Wellish, we’re slowing down the hustle of self-improvement to talk about something real: the human side of healing. This is your reminder that needing reassurance doesn’t mean you’re weak—and feeling your feelings doesn’t make you less evolved.
I share what often gets lost in the race to become “better”—like rest, softness, and the right to have an off day. If you’ve ever felt like you’re supposed to be more unbothered, more healed, more sure of yourself by now, this one’s for you. You’ll walk away feeling seen, soothed, and reminded that your growth doesn’t have to be perfect to be real.
Whether you're in the middle of a spiral or just need to exhale, hit play. This episode is here to validate your humanness—no fixing required.

This episode is for the girl who’s tired of making herself smaller to be more likable. The one who’s been called too emotional, too intense, too ambitious, or too sensitive—and started to believe it. I’m sharing the things I’m no longer apologizing for: my feelings, my boundaries, my standards, my softness and my strength. If you’ve ever felt like you had to shrink to stay loved, this is your reminder that you don’t. You’re not too much. You were just around people who gave too little. Let’s stop apologizing for who we are and start owning it.

You’re doing the work. You’re trying to be calm, grounded, emotionally strong—and yet, you still spiral. You still compare yourself to people who seem more healed, more confident, more “together.” But that doesn’t mean you’re doing it wrong.
In this episode, we’re talking about what real emotional growth actually looks like—hint: it’s not always pretty, perfect, or peaceful. You’ll hear why spiraling doesn’t mean you’ve failed, how to stop comparing your healing to someone else’s, and how to start honoring your own messy middle.

Ever had something fall apart that felt like the worst thing ever—only to realize later it actually led you somewhere better? In this episode, we're talking about the unpredictable, messy, magical path of life. When things don’t go the way we planned, it’s easy to panic. But what if the detour is the actual route? I am exploring why trying to control every detail usually backfires, how our definition of “good” or “bad” isn’t always accurate, and why some of our biggest disappointments end up becoming our greatest blessings. This episode is your reminder that life doesn’t need to go perfectly to unfold perfectly.

For a long time, I wished I could be meaner. Tougher. Someone who could pop off on people so that I could stop feeling taken advantage of. People have called me aggressive, and honestly, I think it’s because I’ve leaned into my masculine energy, believing my voice only holds value if I speak with authority. Thanks, society!
But here’s what I’ve realized: real strength isn’t about matching someone’s bad energy. It’s about standing firm in who you are, no matter how people treat you. Kindness isn’t weakness, and being a good person doesn’t mean letting people walk all over you. In this episode, we’re breaking down why I believed I had to be aggressive to be taken seriously, the difference between kindness and being a pushover, letting go of resentment for your own peace, not for them and why staying true to your character is the ultimate form of strength
If you’ve ever felt like you had to harden yourself just to survive, this episode will help you rethink what it really means to be strong.

I disappeared for a bit—and not by choice. Life ripped the rug out from under me in a way I never saw coming, leaving me with two options: fight against reality or lean back and let the current take me somewhere new. In this episode, I’m unpacking what happened, how I’m rebuilding, and why sometimes the best thing you can do is stop gripping so tightly and let life flow.
I’ll share the mindset shifts that have kept me steady, the daily practices that strengthen your mental resilience, and how I’m learning to trust that even the messiest endings can lead to something better. Because when life forces you to start over, you can either resist—or you can see where the tide wants to take you.
Tune in to hear the truth about what happened, how to strengthen your mind before life hits, why loosening your grip on control leads to better outcomes, and what’s next for me & Wellish as I step into my unapologetic single era. The content is about to get real.
