My Magic Kingdom Meltdown - Coping with Triggers, Family, and Self-Betrayal

Paula's back from Disney World—and let’s just say the trip went way deeper than the pocketbook pain of visiting what she now calls “the hell hole.” By day two, she was in full meltdown mode at Magic Kingdom. But that emotional unraveling cracked something open: a realization that she’d been betraying herself to keep others happy, giving everyone what they wanted—except herself.

This episode is a raw, unfiltered commentary from Paula for anyone feeling stuck in the cycle of doing what they should instead of what they want. It’s about listening to the body’s wisdom over the mind’s ego and recognizing when your internal weather signals a storm.

Paula also shares practical advice on how to create an “inclement mood weather plan” for those moments when you’ve totally lost your shit—and need to find your way back.
