Your Pain Isn't a Punishment - It's a Portal

TLDR (or L) Recap of Episode 59 with Leah Johnson


Life isn’t a straight line—it’s a glorious mess of learning, unlearning, and stumbling into wisdom. In this episode, guest Leah Johnson and I crack open the beauty of not knowing it all and why embracing curiosity is the best way forward.


We talk about the power of real, unfiltered conversations, the kind that remind you we’re all just figuring things out as we go. No pretense, no perfect scripts—just honest, human dialogue that helps us see the world (and ourselves) in a new light. Your Pain Isn't Punishment - It's a Portal


So, if you’ve ever felt like you should have all the answers, consider this your permission slip to lean into the unknown and think out loud!

Extended Reflection


Let’s be honest—nobody actually has it all figured out. The secret? The people who seem the most “put together” have simply learned to embrace the unknown. They’ve made peace with not having all the answers and have gotten really good at asking the right questions.


This episode is a reminder that life isn’t about certainty—it’s about curiosity. The more we let go of the pressure to be “right” all the time, the more space we create for growth, connection, and (dare I say it?) a little bit of magic.


We talk about the power of open, unscripted conversations—the kind that change you. The ones that make you pause, rethink an old belief, or see yourself through a softer, wiser lens. Conversations where two people meet in the middle, without ego, and just wonder together.


If you’ve ever felt that tight grip of imposter syndrome or the nagging fear that you should know more, do more, be more—consider this your permission slip to drop the act. You don’t need to have it all figured out. You just need to stay curious.


The best discoveries happen when we think out loud.


 

Thought prompts get the juices flowing in your mind. Take it to the next level by asking and answering out loud with another human!


💭 What’s something you once believed without question that you now see differently?

💭 When was the last time you changed your mind about something important?

💭 How can you invite more curious conversations into your daily life?


That’s the magic of thinking out loud—when we share our thoughts, we help each other see in new ways.


If this episode sparked something in you, pass it along.


Share it, talk about it, and let’s keep fueling the algorithm of love.


Until next time—go out, be curious, and do good in the world.
