Episode 3132:

Krista O’Reilly-Davi-Digui of ALifeInProgress.ca shares a deeply personal journey through joy, sorrow, self-discovery, and the realization that being "enough" is not about perfection, but about embracing one's messy, beautiful self. Her story is a testament to the power of self-compassion, resilience, and finding joy in the imperfections of life.

Quotes to ponder:

"What happens when you’re thirsty and dip into the bucket of joy is that you come up not just quenched but awake."

"You can finally tell the truth about what you want and learn to love yourself well."
