In this episode, we're getting into one of the most important steps of rebuilding your life: the blueprint. Not a vision board. Not a Pinterest aesthetic. The actual rules you're going to live by.

Candice breaks down why so many of us are living lives designed by other people and what it really takes to start building one by your own intention.

This episode is equal parts real talk and deep reflection, with a very honest detour about the people we may have to let go of in order to protect the life we're building.

This episode covers:

• Why your blueprint is a rulebook, not a mood board
• The difference between standing on business and standing on a boundary
• Why we try to change our behaviour before defining our values (and why that never works)
• The power of giving yourself small permissions to outgrow the bullshit
• Why some of the hardest boundaries to hold are with people we love most
• Self-sabotage, self-worth, and giving yourself a fighting chance

Questions to sit with this week:

• If I wasn't scared of disappointing people, what would my life look like?
• What parts of my life feel like recovery instead of living?
• Why is it always tomorrow for me, but immediately for everyone else?
• Do I really love myself?
