Episode notes

In this episode of So What Happens Next, I’m talking about hobbies, healing your inner child, and learning how to build a life that feels fulfilling outside of society’s expectations.

Why does fun suddenly seem to have an age limit? Why are we encouraged to be creative as children, only to be told to “grow up” as adults?

I talk about my own experience of reconnecting with myself through hobbies, creativity, dance, romanticising life again, and allowing myself to enjoy things without needing them to be productive.

Whether you’re childfree, questioning the traditional life script, or simply feeling disconnected from yourself lately, this episode is your reminder that you are allowed to have fun again.

Because maybe healing isn’t always about fixing yourself. Maybe your inner child just wants to play again.
