Episode 8: Dear 20-Year-Old Me: Read This Before You Kiss Another Toad
Ever wish you could go back in time and have a little chat with your younger self… or maybe give them a bit of a pep talk? In this week’s episode, I’m doing just that.
With the benefit of almost 40 years of hindsight, these are ten things I’d tell my 20-year-old self. With some humour, and a lot of love, I talk to her about trusting herself… breaking up with toxic people… to ditch the obsession with jeans size… to start talking to herself with kindness… and more.
This one’s packed with life lessons, hard-earned wisdom, and just a little kick-assery.
Whether you’re late teen, young adult, or decades into your journey, I hope this episode reminds you that it’s never too late to grow, shift, and give yourself more grace.
💛 Topics include:
- Learning to trust your intuition (and the size of the Post-it list of who to take advice from)
- People-pleasing, boundaries, and saying “no” without guilt
- Resilience, relationships, and what not to do for love
- Body image, self-worth, and talking to yourself like someone you love
- Bonus lessons involving plants, drama, and painfully small shoes 👠
💬 Reflection Prompt:
What would you say to your 20-year-old self? Grab a notebook and write her (or him) a letter. Be kind. Be honest. Be real.
