In this powerful and vulnerable episode, Val Toledo shares the internal battle she faced on the eve of launching her first book—The Upward Spiral. What seemed like a moment of triumph quickly turned into an emotional storm of doubt, fear, and crippling inner voices.

"Who are you to write a book?"
"What do you know?"
"Burn them all."

These were the thoughts racing through her mind as she stared at the freshly printed boxes of her life’s work. But instead of giving in, Val chose to breathe, stand tall, and remember her worth.

This is a story about the moment before the leap—the terrifying silence before the applause, and the courage it takes to stand in your truth, trust the unknown, and let go of the outcome.

Val’s journey reminds us that each hardship is a zero moment, a pivot point of power—waiting to bloom into purpose.
