She has been in the storytelling industry for nearly twenty-five years. She started the Unapologetic Voice House in 2019 after spending years pitching literary agents in the hopes of being published traditionally. All her rejection letters from literary agents came down to the same thing. They all loved the work. They all compared the work to well-known authors. But because she didn’t have a big enough platform, agents always passed on her. Carrie used that pivot in life and launched a company that could help women just like her―unapologetic in their stories without a massive following. She’s married to her best friend and on her next soul quest to become the next version of herself.

| #12 Kelly Buckley | Building Confidence in Life and Business | 06 Mar 2023 | 00:28:31 | |
”When individuals consider beauty and confidence, they frequently consider outward, or looking, confidence. And I can assure you that confidence is more than just stylish hair and makeup. By moving beyond our comfort zone, we develop our confidence.” In this episode, Kelly talks about the power of confidence and how it is crucial to everyone’s self-development. As a cosmetologist, she offered her definition of what true confidence is. Aside from that, we go to the root and where everyone should start to build that inner confidence – self-care! She said that the basic foundation of confidence is self-care, and it could be as easy as getting up and eating breakfast every day or doing a workout. We discuss identifying what you must do to make that happen. The lesson Kelly gave is to learn how to show up and be aware of how you convey an authentic message to your people. About Kelly Buckley Kelly has been in the beauty industry for over 30 years as a salon owner/cosmetologist, educator for an international color company, and now an Independent Sales Director with Mary Kay cosmetics. She is the creator and host of the Beautifully Confident podcast on a mission to reach women globally who would love to identify areas where they would like to grow their confidence and feel more beautiful inside and out. This year she will be kicking off a 4-week program called Turning Point, where she will be helping women make the change they need in their life and their business to reach their goals this year!

In this episode, Caitlin offers her predictions for Instagram trends for the upcoming year. Also, we talk about REELS, hashtag tactics, and the top platform on which one should focus their attention. About Caitlin Durning: Caitlin is obsessed with all things Instagram. Connecting with people (aka—potential clients) worldwide get her going, and ever since realizing that massive potential, she knew she had to help others see the same.

He’s back and ready to share more leadership tips to help you get unstuck! “Working on ourselves is one tip that I can tell to everyone because it's a huge investment when you're able to show up better and with much more clarity about who you are and what your strengths are, and everything that you can bring to the world, then that's that clarity is going to come across in a lot of confidence and in the products that you sell.” Matthew is a leadership resilience educator and coach and was my first interviewee on the program.

| #8 Carrie Severson | Imposter Syndrome And Entrepreneurship | 06 Feb 2023 | 00:15:39 | |
Here is what you can expect from this episode:
About Carrie Severson: Carrie Severson is the author of Unapologetically Enough and the CEO of a book publishing business she started after years of rejection by literary agents. She has been in the storytelling industry for nearly twenty-five years. She started the Unapologetic Voice House in 2019 after spending years pitching literary agents in the hopes of being published traditionally. All her rejection letters from literary agents came down to the same thing. They all loved the work. They all compared the work to well-known authors. But because she didn’t have a big enough platform, agents always passed on her. Carrie used that pivot in life and launched a company that could help women just like her―unapologetic in their stories without a massive following. She’s married to her best friend and on her next soul quest to become the next version of herself.

| #0 Trailer | 19 Jan 2023 | 00:04:12 | |
Have you ever been asked to do the one thing you dreaded most? As a young adult, I did all the things that I thought a “responsible person” would do. I got a degree in Business, a well paying job with benefits and a 401K. When my husband and I started a family, I launched my first business so I could stay at home with my twin boys. And as a young mom I fully embraced that season of life. Our suburban life in the Dallas appeared ideal with the SUV, a beautiful home, and my thriving photography business. As ideal as our life was on the outside, I had lost myself in the season of motherhood at times, and I knew in my heart that it was not the life that we were meant to live. It looked good on paper but the pace was not sustainable for our family or our marriage. Despite the fact that everyone thought we were nuts, we decided to do the very thing I dreaded most. In 2021, we left the only life we had ever known and moved 1600 miles across the country to start over. When we decided to make the leap there was so much uncertainty. We did not know the future of my husband’s job. We were taking the boys away from everything they had ever known, and I would have to start my business over. However, we decided to let faith not fear be our compass! Today we are building the life of our dreams. My boys not only survived but are thriving and would never go back. With a background in marketing and a decade in the photography business, I know how to help entrepreneurs shine online and share their talents with the world. The opportunity to rebuild my business allowed me to transition into a role as business coach and personal brand strategist. Learning to pivot and not panic is a game changer in life and business. It will set you free! Choosing the adventure has allowed me to step into my purpose, build a beautiful business and a beautiful life in the mountains of Boise. Join us here where we will share stories and topics to educate, empower and inspire you! I am your host, Shelly Niehaus and this is the Educated. Empowered. Inspired. Podcast.
