We’re halfway through the year.

Maybe you’re exactly where you hoped you’d be.

Or maybe life happened.

In this solo episode, Clarissa shares a candid reflection on feeling a bit disconnected from parts of her work, the pull of family and community responsibilities, and what she’s learning about finding her way back without judgment or hustle.

If you’ve been feeling stuck, distracted, or like you’ve drifted from the intentions you set earlier this year, this episode offers a gentle invitation to pause, reflect, and reconnect with what matters most.


In this episode, you’ll discover:

  • Why drifting isn’t the same as failing
  • The difference between judgment and curiosity
  • Questions to ask yourself during a mid-year reset
  • How to reconnect with forgotten intentions and creative dreams
