In today’s episode, I’m talking about something I’ve been reflecting on a lot lately: the loneliness of adulthood.As we grow older, friendships change, people move into different phases of life, and sometimes we can feel disconnected even when we’re surrounded by people. I’ve been questioning whether what I’ve been feeling is loneliness, seclusion, or perhaps a mixture of both.Have you ever felt lonely even when people were around you? Do you think loneliness and seclusion are the same thing?I’d love to hear your thoughts in the comments.Don’t forget to like, subscribe and share the episode if it resonated with you.Follow my journey: 📲⬇️Instagram & TikTok: ‪@deyotalks🎧Listen on: Apple Podcasts & Spotify

We often hear the story of Ruth through the lens of marriage and romance, but that’s not what stood out to me this time.Reading it recently, I found myself paying attention to something else entirely: Ruth simply did what needed to be done. She stayed with Naomi, worked hard to provide for them, and focused on the responsibility in front of her rather than what she might gain from it.It made me think about hope, waiting, and how easy it is to become fixated on outcomes we can’t control.In this episode, I reflect on the unexpected encouragement I found in Ruth’s story, why it resonated with me at this stage of life, and what it means to keep moving forward when you don’t know how things will unfold.I'd love to know what stood out to you.

Have you ever taken a break to reset and rewire, but still felt burnt out? You thought stepping away would “fix” things… but you’re still exhausted? In this episode, I talk about being in what feels like a quiet, slow season of my life, while also feeling like everything is happening all at once. I’m still tired, still navigating it all — but I’m choosing to hold on a little longer. If you’re in a similar season, I hope this reminds you that you’re not alone.
