After a rare brain disease took away abilities most of us take for granted, Tanya faced the enormous challenge of rebuilding her life. But recovering wasn't the end of her story.

In this episode of Hardly Finished, we talk about identity, perfectionism, the expectations we place on ourselves, and what happens when life forces us to question everything we thought we wanted.

Sometimes getting your life back means deciding what you actually want to keep.

Fair question.

In this short introduction to Hardly Finished, I share what inspired me to pick up a microphone and start having conversations about life, unexpected turns, lessons learned, and the things we're still figuring out.

No rule book. No perfect answers. Just real people with stories worth hearing.

Our first episode drops October 20, 2026.

Follow Hardly Finished and come along for the ride.

Real Stories. Useful Wisdom. Questionable Decisions.

Because we're all hardly finished.

At 58, Charlotte finds herself asking a question she never expected: What's next?

After decades of building a career, raising a family, and navigating life's unexpected turns, she's discovering that having experience doesn't necessarily mean having all the answers.

In this first episode of Hardly Finished, Charlotte talks about change, uncertainty, questionable decisions, and the strange experience of finding yourself at a crossroads when you thought you'd have life figured out by now.

Because maybe you're not starting over.

Maybe you're starting from experience.
