Welcome back to Oh, There You Are! Today’s episode features a conversation that will leave you feeling seen, encouraged, and ready to reclaim your power.

I had the honor of sitting down with Desra—a proud mom of two, mental health advocate, and wellness leader with Green Compass. At 52 years young, she’s walking proof that it’s never too late to rediscover your worth and step into a life that feels good from the inside out.

Desra gets real about the moments she wanted to give up—on herself and on life. But instead of staying in that place, she chose to rise. And now, she’s using her story to remind others: You are not alone. If she can rise above, so can you.

This episode dives into:

  • Breaking through self-doubt and burnout
  • The power of choosing yourself again and again
  • What it means to lead with wellness and intention
  • And how her personal motto—“Make it a great day”—is so much more than a feel-good phrase. It’s a mindset shift that’s changed her life.

If you’re standing in a hard season or feel disconnected from who you are, this episode will meet you right where you are—with compassion, courage, and community.

🎧 Tap play, and let Desra’s words remind you: You’re not behind. You’re becoming.
