Cutting free from conditioning and why I chopped my hair off

Listen on Apple // Listen on Spotify

Society has sold us many lies.

That femininity = long hair. That beauty looks a certain way. That success looks a certain way. That our worth is somehow tied to how well we fit into these outdated, BS standards. But what happens when you challenge that?

In this episode of Thrive in Life, I’m sharing the story behind my decision to chop my hair off and why it became so much more than just a haircut. It was a radical act of reclaiming my own damn identity—beyond what the world tells me I should be.

What you’ll hear in this episode:

• How we unconsciously attach meaning to things like our appearance, money, success, and status
• The real reason stepping outside of societal norms feels so uncomfortable
• Why your identity is yours to define—whether that’s how you look, work, love, or live
• How you can start breaking free from conditioned ideas and start showing up as your true self

If you’ve ever felt trapped by the expectations of what you “should” be, this episode is your permission slip to say F-that and start living for YOU.
