In this episode, I interview my sister’s best friend, Belen. She talks about how her timelines changed as she grew up. Early on, she thought she would be destined to be on one pathway, to repeat her mother’s timeline. But her viewpoint and perspective have changed a lot as she’s grown up. I love that she shares how she finds moments with her bestie, even though they live states apart. We end with some comments on reality TV shows like The Valley. Belen is showing us all that we don’t have to hold on to old beliefs and that we can change our minds.
