#40 All About Me

Step into Episode 41: "All About Me," where I go straight for the ugliness and messiness of truths. It’s a journey through identity, vulnerability, and empowerment. I come clean about myself and the experiences I know other women go through too. 

You truly are never alone.

Pulling out the whole closet of unexpected family challenges to the roller coaster of running a business, and the courage to reinvent oneself. This episode is an intimate look at the complex web of life's real stuff.

Many of us wrestle with the idea of being honest about all the hidden stuff without a care -in the aftermath there’s no problem sharing, “Whew! I made it through!” But to be real about perceived inadequacies and changing that internal dialogue is key to self-actualization. 

It's about uniting as women and finding our shining light.

I’m not sugar-coating or hiding anything. This is a conversation for those who are tired of playing it safe and ready for the life of well-being, happiness and thriving in ways you may not believe you can with any messiness. 

Whether you're a leader, a seeker, or just someone who wants to hear it like it is, there's a place for you here. Please join me, thank you so much for being here.
