Welcome back to Hold My Halo — the podcast uplifting and inspiring young women in their twenties navigating the highs and lows of adulthood! I’m your host, Jailyn Skye, and while I might not have all the answers, I promise we’re figuring this out together.

Episode Breakdown: This week, we’re getting into why I’ve named this episode "Bird Shit" and how something as random as a bird pooping on my car became a symbol for finding direction and reassurance in my life. Yep, you read that right—sometimes, the universe sends us signs in the most unexpected ways.

What You'll Hear:

• Looking for Signs: Ever found yourself desperately needing reassurance or waiting for a clear sign to steer you in the right direction? Same. But sometimes, we end up searching in all the wrong places.
• Decision Fatigue & Taking Control: How my fear of making decisions left me living a life built on other people’s choices—and what changed when I finally started taking charge.
• Birds, Cars & The Universe: How an annoying splatter of bird poop turned into a comforting signal that I was on the right path, and how this silly habit helped me move past self-doubt.
• You Are the Sign: Why we’re often looking for outside validation when, really, we hold the power to move forward. It’s time to stop letting fear hold us back and start trusting in our own journey.
• Shutting Down the Doubt: If you’ve ever worried about being judged or struggled with people-pleasing, we’re breaking down why those who judge are usually the ones doing less—and how to focus on your own greatness.

Key Takeaways:

• It’s okay to want signs, but don’t let them dictate your worth or decisions.
• Your dreams and goals are enough to push you forward—embrace them.
• Stop letting fear of judgment or failure hold you back. It’s time to take your shoes off, stand up, and walk confidently toward the life you deserve.

Resources Mentioned:

• TikTok Quote: "A billionaire won’t judge you for starting a business, an athlete won’t judge you for being a beginner in the gym, and an influencer with twenty million followers won’t judge you for posting—it’s those doing less who want to stop you from doing more."

Tune in and let’s talk about embracing the signs that come our way—even if they’re messy! As always, let’s get ready to grow and glow together. ✨

Hi angels! Welcome to Hold My Halo podcast, where we dive into relatable lessons, challenges, and everything in between that make up the complex evolution of our twenties.

In this episode, I get real about my journey with this podcast—starting, stopping, and relaunching (yes, for the third time!). It's been a ride, but I’m here to remind you that timing doesn’t have to be perfect for you to chase your dreams. This episode is all about embracing reinvention, understanding that mistakes are part of the process, and realizing that you don’t have to have everything figured out to take the first step.

We’ll explore why it's okay to stumble along the way and how those stumbles make up your unique story. With personal anecdotes and a few laughs, I share how adulthood has taught me to look at things with a little less stress and a lot more grace. Because honestly? Not everything needs to be so deep.

So, if you’re a 20-something Black woman who’s navigating life, wanting more, but not quite having her sh*t together just yet—this space is for you. Together, we’re going to figure out how to filter out what’s not important and focus on what really matters, all while having fun.

✨ Key Takeaways:

• It’s okay to start over and reinvent yourself, even multiple times.
• Waiting for the "perfect time" will leave you waiting forever—take the leap!
• Learn to discern between what’s worth stressing over and what you can let go of.
• Adulthood is hard, but with laughter and grace, you can make it through.
