What if the problem isn’t your behavior or the life you've been handed, but the belief system it’s built on?

In this episode, Alex shares the raw and redemptive story of what happened when everything she thought she believed came crashing down.

Through the biblical story of King David and Solomon, spiritual symbolism from across cultures, and personal reflections on trauma, performance, and peace. This episode explores what it means to question your foundation, re-evaluate your purpose, and lay a new cornerstone for your life.

This isn’t about burning it all down for drama.
It’s about getting honest enough to rebuild with truth, love, and intention.

I think it's time for me to start talking again.

I think it's time for us to finally heal the generational traumas we've made normal.

I think we get to be that generation.
