Have you ever caught yourself postponing joy, believing some future moment will be better than the present? That's the powerful question at the heart of this raw, reflective episode where I open up about emerging from my Pluto square transit—what astrologers often call the midlife crisis period.

Life rarely provides clean transitions. Even as I notice positive shifts after years of financial drought and professional uncertainty, I've discovered there's a crucial cleanup phase that follows major life transitions. This realization prompted me to examine how often we "borrow from the future," sacrificing today's contentment for tomorrow's promised rewards.

My recent journey includes stepping away from social media platforms that restricted authentic expression, leaving my role as a TikTok Creator Network Manager, and recommitting to my coaching business, Sovereign. But perhaps more significantly, I'm confronting deeper truths about aging (approaching 51), ungrieved losses, and the survival mentality that's shaped my entire life. I share candid thoughts about the importance of consolidation after difficult periods—giving ourselves and others time to heal and integrate experiences before moving forward.

The conversation weaves through practical financial insights from my childhood in a single-parent household to philosophical questions about faith, purpose, and how astrology provides a framework for understanding life's seasons without predicting outcomes. Though I'm still working through challenges, there's a tentative hope emerging as I shift focus from mere survival to possibilities for thriving.

If you're navigating your own life transitions or questioning the "it gets better" narrative, this episode offers companionship in that journey. I'd love to hear where you're listening from and have you join this growing community of seekers. Stay empowered!
