Journey to Me & Beyond
Who am I? Who are you?
This is a podcast where I share my journey coming back to me, and yet, going beyond what makes up who I am right now.
This is a place where I invite you to explore who you are, where we challenge ourselves to love ourselves where we are, and at the same time go beyond what we're capable of.
We explore topics like relationships, belonging, self-acceptance, courage, dreams, while at the same time, not being afraid to go deep into areas such as loneliness, rejection, pain, suffocation, grief, loss...
From time to time, I'll be inviting guest to come along to explore different topics.
Come along, as we go on this journey to be more us, and beyond.
