How To Handle The Worst Season Of Your Life

Apple Podcasts | Spotify

Feelings may not be facts—but they are valid.

I think it’s safe to say we’ve all experienced something we could label “the worst”— at least until the next worst thing happens.

In this episode, I discuss the universal experience of facing life’s worst moments and offer practical practices that will help you navigate them. We dive into the importance of feeling emotions, making a decision to heal, collecting lessons from struggles, prioritizing self-care, and embracing the new version of yourself that emerges from adversity.

This episode is special. I didn’t realize it until I listened to the playback, but I get really raw as I share what was one of the most painful experiences in my life. My hope is that I encourage you as I encouraged myself with this one.

Finally, I extended a special invitation for you to share your “worst season” story with me. Listen to this episode, and if you have the capacity, email me directly at ⁠thepodcast@nakeiahomer.com⁠.
