I’m Engaged — And I’m Still Becoming
This episode marks a return — and a beginning. After a year away from recording, I’m back to reflect on what changed while I was gone. I met someone, fell in love, got engaged, and chose to live my relationship fully before talking about it publicly.
In this episode, I share what it’s been like to grow inside love rather than around it. How engagement didn’t suddenly make me “finished,” and how becoming doesn’t stop just because something feels steady. This is a conversation about presence, change, and letting yourself evolve without rushing to define it.
Show Notes
Welcome back to Single Ever After! I didn’t disappear because I ran out of things to say — I disappeared because I fell in love and got engaged. The last year was full, busy, and life-changing.
In this episode, I’m not sharing the engagement story itself. I’m talking about the quieter moments — the subtle changes in how I show up in my relationship, how I trust myself, and how growth can happen quietly, without anyone noticing.

A Moment That Changed Everything
Early in my relationship, he was clear about wanting something long-term. I wasn’t quite there yet. Normally, I would’ve overexplained — added context, reassurance, and managed every moment.
This time, I didn’t. I spoke honestly, said what I felt, and stopped. And it was enough. That moment showed me how growth can be quiet, steady, and still meaningful.
Why Quiet Growth Matters
Growth doesn’t always look dramatic. Sometimes it’s fewer words, less urgency, and more trust. If you’ve ever felt like your life slowed down and wondered if something was missing, this episode is for you.
You’re not behind — you’re becoming.
