today I’m talking about something I'm calling: my meeting season. That subtle, sacred shift from simply being single to knowing, or at least hoping, that you're entering the season where love shows up. The season of “almosts” turning into “oh, this could be something.”
I woke up feeling a little heavy this morning — not because I don’t love my single life (I do, deeply), but because I’m human. And part of being human is wanting connection. Craving love. Hoping someone is out there hoping for you, too.
This episode is for anyone navigating singlehood with intention and heart. If you’ve ever found yourself both grateful for your independence and still longing for a partner — you’re not alone. You can hold joy and hope at the same time. In fact, I think that’s the whole point.
In this episode, I talk about:
Why “meeting season” is real
Holding space for both hope and contentment
What it means to believe in love without losing yourself
And why you’re not behind — you’re just in the middle of your own story
Because loving your life and wanting love? They’re not mutually exclusive. Let’s talk about what it looks like to live in that beautiful in-between.
