In this first episode, hosts Ingrid and Brook share why this podcast exists and why the idea of a “finish line” is one of the most exhausting lies we’ve been sold.
From careers and entrepreneurship to motherhood, relationships, identity, healing, and growth—life doesn’t arrive fully formed. There is no moment where everything clicks, nothing hurts, and you finally feel “done.” There are only seasons. Choices. Lessons. And the courage to keep going.
In this episode, Ingrid and Brook open up about:
The loneliness that can come with leadership and starting something new
The pressure of comparison in a world of highlight reels
Choosing optimism over forced positivity
Why one relationship can completely change the direction of your life
The power of boundaries—even when they’re painful
Losses we choose, and why walking away can still be an act of love
Business rejection, self-doubt, and learning not to shrink
Body image, self-talk, and being kinder to yourself
Letting go of the belief that you’ll finally be “happy when…”
This conversation is honest, vulnerable, and deeply human. There are no quick fixes here. No perfectly packaged answers. Just real stories, hard-earned lessons, and the reminder that if you feel like you’re still a work in progress—you’re not failing. You’re building.
Life Under Construction is about the people behind the titles. The quiet struggles no one posts about. The growth that happens when you stop pretending you have it all together.
If you’re in a season of becoming…
If you feel behind, stuck, or unsure of what’s next…
If you’re tired of chasing a finish line that keeps moving…
You’re in the right place.
There is no finish line.
And that might be the most freeing truth of all.
