But we aren’t talking about putting more on your canvas. We’re talking about taking the chisel to the stone. As a people, we walk around wrapped in the heavy expectations of a world that wants to define us. We are carrying the exhaustion of false narratives, code-switching, and societal demands. What happens when you stop trying to build a monument for other people and start scraping away the buildup that hides your true self? The masterpiece is already inside you, but it’s buried under a mountain of "shoulds" and "have-tos." On today's episode, we explore the terrifying, beautiful process of dropping the weight.
