In this heartfelt episode, we explore how the hardest moments in life can shape the strongest parts of who we become. Our guest opens up about growing up without a father and with a working mother—and how she created an imaginary family to cope with the loneliness. What began as a survival mechanism became a source of strength, comfort, and resilience.
We reflect on how even the most difficult experiences can lead us to the next chapter of our lives, and why some coping tools—no matter how unconventional—are exactly what we need to keep going. This conversation is a powerful reminder that healing often begins with what we do to help ourselves endure.
