Summary

Have you ever felt like you're outgrowing (or have outgrown) an aspect of your life?

My whole perspective shifted on a FaceTime call with a friend a few months ago. He saw my sad-but-regularly-watered plants in the background and told me that those plants of mine were really unhappy and that even though I was watering them, they still needed food and enough space to grow.

This episode is about plants, but it’s also about us—how we water ourselves, what nourishment we truly need, and if the containers we’ve given ourselves are the right ones. It’s all a big ol’ metaphor, of course, and it’s also a precursor to the shift I’m making in my business.
