This episode is about grace. The kind we give to others, and the kind we often forget to give ourselves. I talk about:

✨ Navigating unruly market days with patience
✨ Learning to delegate (even when it’s hard)
✨ Caregiving for my mom during her cancer journey
✨ And the strange shift from being a 24/7 hustler to feeling like putting on real pants is a win

I hope this episode gives you permission to slow down, breathe deep, and remember: grace costs you nothing.
