I'm Not Who I Was, And That's the Point | Celebrating Growth, Change & Becoming

Episode 100. Almost two years of showing up, evolving, changing our minds, changing our standards, and becoming women our episode-one selves might not fully recognize. In this episode, Blake and Ashlyn reflect on what has changed since the beginning of the podcast — from relationships and friendships to career, confidence, generosity, dating standards, and the way they see themselves. We talk about why growth is supposed to change you, why endings are not always bad, what we no longer believe about the ‘dream job,’ and why doing the work on yourself creates a kind of confidence that nobody else can give you. We also get into: • Why people sometimes call you fake when you evolve • Learning to embrace endings and changing seasons • Why dream jobs in corporate America no longer feel real to us • The 50/50 conversation and why splitting bills does not automatically make life equal • Grieving the version of yourself that gave too much • How self-work changes your confidence • What we hope the next version of ourselves looks like by Episode 200 • Purposeful, peaceful, pretty, and paid Today’s Soft Landing: You are allowed to become someone your old self would not fully recognize. Change does not make you fake. Growth does not make you disloyal. Sometimes the point is to outgrow the version of you that only knew how to survive. What is one way that you have changed that you are finally proud of? 📩 Email us: [email protected] 📱 Follow us on all platforms: @softlyunfilteredpod ⭐ Leave us a rating on Apple Podcasts & Spotify!
