First Messy Draft is a reflective podcast about identity, growth, and the quiet shifts that happen as we move through adulthood. Hosted by Erica Person, each episode explores the moments when we begin to outgrow old expectations, titles, and versions of ourselves. Through thoughtful reflection and real-life observations, this space invites listeners to slow down, look inward, and consider what it means to keep becoming. This podcast is for women who are evolving quietly. Not in crisis. Not falling apart. Just… changing. If you’ve been feeling more reflective lately, outgrowing old versions of yourself or searching for language for what you're experiencing—you may find yourself at home here. Because the truth is, most of us are still writing our first messy drafts.
