In this soulful session, I reflect on a powerful moment in the bathroom (yes, really) while Robert Glasper played in the background. A single revelation hit me like a divine download: “I am light.” That realization led me to explore what it means to carry heavy truths, be a safe space for others, and still stay grounded in my own healing.
From strangers sharing their deepest pain, to memories of a friend lost to suicide, to singing my childhood comfort song out loud — this episode is for anyone who’s ever felt like a vessel, unsure of what to do with what they’ve been entrusted to hold.
🧠 Themes explored:
The meaning of “Ellen” and reclaiming the light within
The emotional weight of being everyone’s confidant
Recognizing signs of mental distress in others
How to hold space without losing yourself in the process
The difference between saving someone and simply being present
✨ “You are strong enough to hold heavy truths — not to fix, but to witness.” ✨
