The Steady Becoming | Personal Growth Stories for Women Mon, 13 Jul 2026 05:18:17 -0400 http://TheSteadyBecoming.com en-us © 2026 The Steady Becoming yes 2b18f73a-63b9-56e2-9350-40acf2c1dc5d Miriam Kokolo episodic false A story-driven podcast for women working on something: a business, a creative project, a new version of themselves.


Each episode starts with an original parable. A story built around a simple truth, a moment from a life not unlike yours. Then we talk about what it means and why it still applies to whatever you're in the middle of right now.


This isn't a personal development show with frameworks and five-step plans. It's a weekly reminder that what works is often simpler and steadier than you think. For women over 30 who are done with hustle culture and ready for something quieter, steadier, and more honest.


Because the woman who keeps picking it back up? She's already the woman she's trying to become.


Hosted by Miriam Kokolo.

Letting go isn't the same as quitting, but knowing the difference is the whole thing.

In this episode, we get into something most personal growth content skips: how to tell whether you've genuinely outgrown something, or whether you're just in resistance and the want is still there underneath.

There's a story about a woman and her copper vessels, a very relatable detour involving expired gummy vitamins, and one question to sit with by the end.

If you've been carrying something around that you drifted away from and haven't officially put down yet, this one's for you.
