The Setback That Made Me Stronger

In this episode, Anastasia opens up about an unexpected setback—dislocating her ankle—and the powerful lessons it forced her to learn. What began as a painful fall quickly became a wake-up call about burnout, constant pushing, ignoring signs, and the belief that our worth comes from “doing.”

As she shares the raw frustration of losing momentum, missing plans, and being forced into stillness, Anastasia reveals the surprising truth: rest doesn’t slow you down—it strengthens your foundation. Healing isn’t just physical; it’s surrender, recalibration, and courage to pause.

Whether your version of a setback is burnout, grief, exhaustion, or plans falling apart, this episode will help you see stillness as medicine, not a weakness. You’ll discover why slowing down is often the exact step forward you didn’t know you needed.

If you’re ready to rebuild from stronger foundations with more alignment, balance, and resilience—without the hustle—Anastasia invites you into her Thrive to Mastery community, where healing and growth go hand-in-hand.
