    05:24 - 06:20 - episode explanation

    06:20 - 09:58 - your worth isn’t in productivity

    09:59 - 11:51 - God’s timing over my timing

    11:52 - 14:43 - real friendships won’t require you to constantly prove yourself.

    14:44 - 18:16 - healing isn’t linear & that’s okay

    18:18 - 22:00 - protect your peace like it’s designer!

    22:01 - 25:00 - prioritise and pour into yourself the same way you would into friendships.

    25:02 - 26:24 - being sensitive is a strength

    26:25 - 28:11 - not everyone needs access to you

    28:12 - 30:21 - you don’t have to have life figured out at 18 (or 28, or 38)

    30:22 - 32:54 - saying no is a form of self-love (boundaries are there to help not hinder you, respect them!)

    32:55 - 35:40 - social media is a highlight reel, not the whole movie.

    35:41 - 37:42 - forgiveness is healing, not a setback - you don’t have to reconnect just because you forgave.

    37:43 - 38:47 - comparison is the thief of joy (and confidence) + it’s okay to start over again and again + rest is not laziness.

    39:40 - 40:27 - the little moments matter just as much or even more than the big ones.

    40:28 - 41:21 - joy is something you choose daily (intentional).
