shift happens | personal growth, self-reflection, and stories that shift your perspective
this isn’t your feel-good, fix-your-vibes podcast. this podcast calls you out, not just in. we talk real growth, real mindset shifts, and the hard, uncomfortable stuff no one wants to say out loud.
shift happens is where you go when you’re tired of your own bullsh!t. change is inevitable, but growth is a choice. life's "shift" storms aren’t going anywhere, but you get to choose how you show up when they hit.
you’ll get daily shift starters that’ll hit you with perspective before your first cup of coffee, and weekly episodes that dig into the real sh!t … identity, healing, chaos, and choosing growth when it’d be easier not to.
i’m kayla — your tough love bestie, mom of 5, and the voice in your ear when you’re ready to stop blaming life’s chaos and start using it as momentum. life handed me some pretty sh!tty cards over the years and that’s exactly why i’m so passionate about helping other women deal with theirs.

we all have that mental picture of how life was “supposed” to go. the career, the person, the house, the timeline…everything neatly planned. but what happens when reality doesn’t match up? when life takes a sharp left turn and none of it looks the way you imagined?
in this episode, i’m diving into the hard truth: sometimes the life we’ve been clinging to, the one that doesn’t fit anymore, has to die for us to grow into the person we were meant to become. i’m sharing my personal story of how a surprise pregnancy at 17 shattered my “perfect” plan, and how i had to let go of that version of myself to embrace a future i never saw coming.
i'll talk about the expectation trap, why it’s so hard to let go of a plan that’s not working, and how the grief of losing the life you thought you’d have isn’t weakness… it’s a necessary step toward moving forward. we’ll explore the power of release, how holding on to what’s not serving you is actually blocking your growth, and why peace doesn’t come from having it all figured out.
if you’ve ever felt stuck or lost because your life isn’t matching the picture you painted, this episode is for you. let’s get into it.
