I walked away from my old life… and I’d do it again

I didn’t plan on recording this, but I hit 1,000 subscribers today… and it made me pause.This episode is a mix of a life update and a reflection on what the last few years have actually looked like behind the scenes. Walking away from my old life wasn’t some big, empowering, aesthetic moment, it was quiet, uncertain, and honestly really hard at times.I’m talking about starting over, the identity shifts that come with it, losing people, rebuilding, and learning to be okay with not sharing everything all at once. And also… celebrating the small wins, even when they don’t look like much from the outside.I’m not ready to tell the full story yet, but I will. Slowly.For now, this is just a real, honest conversation about where I’m at, and I’m really grateful you’re here for it. 🖤 Get full access to McKenna Ashcroft at mckennahashcroft.substack.com/subscribe
