I Cried Editing This: The Finale After 29 Episodes | The Journey So Far | Homecoming Epd 29
I cried editing this. Not because it's sad. But because I didn't realize how far I'd come until I watched it all back.What does it mean to come home? Is it a place on a map? Or is it a feeling you finally find within yourself?A sense of belonging in your own skin. Your own story. Your own life.Over 29 episodes, we've navigated the messy, heartbreaking, and beautiful path back to ourselves. We've named the silent struggles. We've challenged the stories that kept us stuck. We've built toolkits for resilience. And we've remembered our wholeness.This is the Homecoming Finale.In this episode, I'm getting vulnerable about:Why I thought I was creating a podcast but actually built a villageHow you've been my teachers as much as I've been your guideThe map of our journey together (the 4 phases of coming home)Why true growth is not linear — it's a spiralThe gift of relapse (and why it's not failure)How to see your growth in the rearview mirrorIntegration over perfection: becoming your own best friendAnnouncing our NEXT series: RECLAMATION (what's coming)A rebrand on the horizonThis isn't goodbye. It's a beautiful milestone. You're no longer a stranger to yourself.

Forgive Yourself for the Time It Took: Stop Regretting Your Past | Homecoming Epd 28
Can you feel it? That quiet, persistent ache when you think about the years you feel you wasted?The career path you didn't take. The relationship you stayed in too long. The dream you put on hold. The gap between where you are and where you thought you'd be by now.We carry this guilt for the time it took us to learn, to heal, to finally become the person we are today.But what if the time wasn't wasted?What if it was the exact, messy, non-negotiable curriculum you needed?In this episode of Homecoming, I'm getting personal about the years I spent beating myself up for not figuring it out sooner — while watching peers who seemed to have it all mapped out at 22.I share:The devastating therapy question that changed everything ("Did that version of you know what you know now?")Why regret over lost time is actually misplaced griefThe 3 stories we tell ourselves that keep us stuck in self-blameWhat unforgiveness costs you (it's an anchor draining your present energy)How self-sabotage is connected to past shameThe letter you need to write to your past self (and why it heals)A powerful symbolic ritual to release regretWhy the person you were then was a student, and who you are now is the teacherThis episode is your permission slip to finally close the book on that regret and forgive yourself for the time it took.CHAPTERS0:00 - That quiet ache of "wasted years"1:25 - My story: beating myself up for not figuring it out2:15 - The therapy question that broke me open3:00 - Why regret is misplaced grief3:27 - Story #1: The "should have" narrative4:11 - Story #2: Grief in disguise4:42 - Story #3: Misunderstanding the learning process5:38 - What unforgiveness costs you (the anchor)6:11 - How regret fuels self-sabotage6:46 - The barrier to self-compassion7:11 - How to actually forgive yourself7:33 - Reframe your story (find the lesson)8:20 - Write to your past self9:00 - A symbolic ritual to release regret10:08 - The truth you need to carry forward10:51 - Your permission slip + closing11:35 - Final thoughts + thank you🎧 LISTEN TO THE UNFILTERED TRUTHS PODCASTPrefer audio?

The Real Reason You Stopped Dreaming (And How to Start Again) | Homecoming Epd 25
The real reason you stopped dreaming has nothing to do with time, age, or laziness. It's something else entirely.In this episode of Unfiltered Truths, I'm getting personal about the dream I packed away for years — the notebooks, the scribbled ideas on receipts, the moment I told myself I was being "practical." I share:l Why we really abandon our dreams (it's a protection mechanism)l The 3 bricks that build "Dreamer's Block"l What happens when a dream is deferred (it doesn't just vanish)l How to reclaim your imagination without having it all figured outl The one-word-a-day method that finally got me writing again If you have a dream tucked away in a drawer — one that feels too painful, too naive, or too late to pull out again — this conversation is for you.

Your peaceful Life Is A Lie (Nervous System Explained) | Homecoming Epd 23.
If your life is finally calm but it feels wrong, unsettling, or even boring... you're not self-sabotaging. Your nervous system is.Your body can become addicted to chaos. When you've been in survival mode—constant deadlines, drama, and crisis—your brain rewires to see that panic as normal. So when peace arrives, it feels like a threat. This is why you might pick fights, procrastinate, or create problems when things are good.In this episode of Unfiltered Truths, I (Sandra) share my own experience of missing chaos and the 4-step framework I used to retrain my nervous system to accept peace—without the anxiety.⏱️ TIMESTAMPS:0:00 The Lie of a "Peaceful Life"1:00 Why calm feels wrong2:10 My chaos addiction story3:45 Your brain on survival mode5:30 3 reasons you recreate drama7:15 THE 4-STEP FIX7:45 Step 1: The Naming Ceremony9:20 Step 2: The Healthy Swap10:50 Step 3: Building New Pathways12:30 Step 4: Micro-Moments of Peace14:00 The cost of choosing chaos16:00 What true calm looks like17:30 Your one thing this week🎧 LISTEN TO THE PODCAST:Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/7D5FaQ9qTvxGk1HcNq2R6dApple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/unfiltered-truths/id1234567890(Find us on all major platforms - search "Unfiltered Truths")📌 SUBSCRIBE to the YouTube Channel:https://www.youtube.com/@UnfilteredTruths💬 COMMENT BELOW:Type "REWIRE" if you're committing to breaking out of survival mode this week.CONNECT WITH ME:Instagram: @prunskybae#nervoussystem #nervoussystemhealing #nervoussystemregulation #mentalhealth #anxiety #selfsabotage #survivalmode #healing #emotionalhealth #innerpeace #psychology #selfhelp #podcast #mentalhealthpodcast #neuroplasticity #rewireyourbrain #mentalhealthmatters #emotionalregulation #trauma #burnout #calm #mindbody #stress #attachment #abandonmentissues #therapy #mindfulness #wellness #personaldevelopment #mentalhealthawareness

Stop Telling Yourself This Story (It’s Why You’re Stuck) | Homecoming Epd 22
You are not stuck. You are storytelling.That voice telling you it’s too late, you’re not responsible enough, or you don’t have what it takes? It’s not truth.

UG The Uncomfortable Secret: Stop Setting Goals. (How Your Past Fuels Your Future) | Homecoming Ep 19
Feeling the pressure to set huge New Year's goals? What if the key to a powerful 2026 isn't forward in a planner, but backward in your past? In this Boxing Day special, we're doing the opposite of returning gifts—we're unwrapping the hidden gifts from your 2025.Join Sandra for a radical, anti-resolution review. We'll go on an "Archaeological Dig" into your past year with a concrete 3-step toolkit to transform your experiences into fuel:🔍 The 3-Step Archaeological Dig:1. Data, Not Drama: Convert personal "failures" into objective facts. (Example: "I'm a fraud" becomes "I pitched 10, 2 said yes, feedback was on pricing.").2. Skill Acquisition: Discover the human skills (resilience, discernment, emotional tolerance) 2025 forced you to develop.3. Unseen Strength: Name your hidden superpowers—the courage, resilience, and self-awareness you proved you have.This isn't about fixing yourself. It's about finding the blueprint for 2026 that's already written in the data, skills, and strengths you earned this past year. If you're ready to enter the new year with clarity and confidence from a place of wisdom, not shame, this is for you.🗓️ Timestamps:00:00- The Backward Secret to a Successful Year01:00- Welcome & The Pressure of the "New Year"02:08- Unwrapping the Gift of the Past Year02:40- Lens 1: Data vs. Drama04:11- Lens 2: The Skills You Acquired06:07- Lens 3: Your Unseen Strengths & Superpowers10:08- How This Fuels 2026 (Without Grand Goals)11:21- Final Encouragement❤️ If this different approach to the new year resonated with you, please share this video with a friend and subscribe for next week, where we build your 2026 "Anti-Resolution" from this blueprint.🔔Subscribe to The Unfiltered Truths Podcast for more conversations on finding wisdom within and coming home to your true self.🎧 LISTEN TO THE PODCAST:Main Link:https://pod.link/aHR0cHM6Ly9hbmNob3Iu...Spotify:https://open.spotify.com/show/2LF3COg...ABOUT THIS CHANNEL:The Unfiltered Truths is where we have real conversations about the heart breaking,beautiful, and messy parts of life.

The Tools That Saved Me: A Personal Guide From the Brink | Homecoming Epd 18
There's a story I don't often share. It’s not in the highlight reels—it’s from the year my light went out.
