What if the thing you’re meant to do next…is the very thing you’ve been scared to admit?

This week on WTF: Where’s the Fun?, Mel shares something BIG—she’s relaunching her paint company in Muskoka.

But this isn’t just about going back to an old business.
It’s about finally giving herself permission to do what actually lights her up…

👉 Even if it looks different than what she thought success should be.
👉 Even if it means letting go of the online identity she worked so hard to build.
👉 Even if it requires courage, clarity, and a whole lot of trust.

Meanwhile, Andrea’s stepping into a powerful new chapter of her own—unveiling her WTF 2.0 Keynote, launching aligned workshops, and working with clients who are ready to lead from joy.

In this episode, we dive into:
✨ Why following the fun often requires courage first
✨ The subconscious judgment that kept Mel stuck
✨ How the Universe responded the moment she chose joy
✨ What “aligned action” actually looks and feels like

If you’re in a season of transition—or standing at the edge of something you’ve been afraid to say out loud—this one’s for you.
