About this listen

Navigating adulthood and adversity with transparency and vulnerability, here we highlight progress over perfection through my personal and professional development diary. Each episode I document and discuss my coming of age trials and tribulations as I trust the process on my journey to becoming. Join me as I peel back the curtain of perfection, and share my personal stories, with the hopes of helping you grow through, what you go through.

I’ll be discussing everything from education and careers, overcoming failure, love, friendships and relationships, religion and spirituality, beauty, health and wellness, mastering your mindset, and becoming your best self along the way.

Sharing the highs and lows and the real and raw parts of the story that no one talks about, I am Brelynn Hunt, A Work in Progress.

    I am grateful for every experience that has brought me to this moment of growth and self-discovery.

    I believe, that God's 'no' is not a rejection, but a redirection to something greater than I can imagine.

    I find peace knowing that God’s timing and purposes are always greater than my understanding.

    I honor the path I’ve walked, knowing that every twist and turn has led me closer to the person I was meant to become.

    I am thankful for the lessons learned through both joy and pain, as they have shaped me into the person I am today.
