What if you stopped comparing your timeline to everyone else’s—and began honoring the way you change, heal, and grow? In this episode, Rhonda shares why trusting your individual process is the key to lasting transformation, self-love, and freedom from overwhelm.

Today, I invite you to step off the perfection rollercoaster and embrace the truth: your process is uniquely yours, and there’s nothing wrong with it—no matter how long it takes.

I share my own stories—the five years it took me to quit drinking, the book I’ve been dancing with for a decade, and the gentle lessons learned from saying no before yes. Together, we’ll explore how judgment, shame, and rushing only keep us stuck, while self-compassion and curiosity create real, aligned change.

If you’ve ever questioned, “Why is this taking me so long? Why am I not further ahead?”—this conversation is your invitation to honor your pace. Growth isn’t a race or a contest. It’s your soulful journey home to yourself.

1. Why your process doesn’t have to look like anyone else’s (and why that’s a gift)
2. The power of self-compassion in making real change, instead of self-judgment
3. How to recognize if you’re avoiding or just moving at your own authentic pace
4. Practical ways to reflect on your unique style of growth and decision-making
5. How gentle awareness can shift self-talk, boost self-esteem, and move you forward

Gentleness with yourself is the only path that leads you home. Your process is enough—and so are you.

“Talking poorly to yourself, putting yourself down, thinking it should be faster, quicker, better, does not support you to process and, or stop avoiding—it actually increases it for most people. So if you are gentle with yourself as you're going through either of those things… you are going to get to the answer faster, quicker, and more aligned with who you really are.”
