You’re Not Chasing the Future—You’re Escaping the Present

You can’t have what you want—but you can experience what you have.

This Preston Smiles quote stopped me in my tracks during one of my hardest seasons. I was stuck in fear, chasing the illusion of a “better future”… only to realise that everything I wanted was already around me—love, connection, enoughness.

 

In today’s episode, I invite you to stop searching for a feeling tomorrow and start noticing what’s already real—today.

Because the truth is, if you’re too focused on your future, you’re missing the people who love you now.

 

Let’s stop trying to fix emotional pain with material goals—and instead, learn to feel the love that’s already here.
