What happens when you stop living for everyone else and finally start living for you?
In this guest episode, Emily sits down with Laurie Shelton for a conversation about grief, people pleasing, Self-Trust, and the courage it takes to build a life that feels genuinely your own. Laurie shares the story of leaving behind the life she had built in Arizona, making a bold leap into a new chapter, and discovering unexpected freedom, healing, and possibility in Portland, Maine.
Together, they explore how travel can reconnect us to who we really are, what it means to trust the unknown, and how doing “the thing” often asks us to release timelines, approval, and the need to have everything figured out.
This episode is for anyone navigating loss, longing, reinvention, or the quiet pull toward a life that feels more true.
