| Un-Gatekeeping My Backstory | 03 Sep 2024 | 00:42:43 | |
When it comes to building a personal brand, we have to portray ourselves in a particular way: expert, authentic, personal, energetic, etc. But this sometimes leaves out the stickier details: what we struggle with, difficulties we had to face, all the moments we questioned ourselves. So today, I’m pulling back the curtain. I’m laying out my backstory for you, good, bad, and uncomfortable. I’m covering a cheerleading career, my mental breakdown, my yoga mat business, and the way I eventually had to re-evaluate some of my strongest held beliefs. I’m not holding back, and I hope it’s encouraging that you can both achieve your goals no matter how crazy it seems, and that you can overcome huge setbacks even when they challenge everything you thought you knew.

| Un-Gatekeeping Feminine Power | 27 Aug 2024 | 00:38:31 | |
Today’s guest calls herself “anti-feminist.” Before you throw your Airpods across the room, stick with me. This conversation isn’t about denigrating women – it’s the exact opposite. Instead of encouraging women to play the masculine game, Morgan May wants women to embrace their feminine power and use it to their advantage. In this episode, Morgan and I chat about all things feminine power: how to tap into it, what’s keeping us from using it, why society discourages us from using our feminine power, and how all of this can give us a leg up when it comes to business. This is one conversation you cannot miss. Let’s dive in! What’s in this episode:

You’ve probably got this idea in your head, that the most successful people are the most talented or gifted or something like that. And I’m here to tell you that you are wrong.

In today's episode, I’m sharing my story of using confidence –and some delusion– to launch my pro cheerleading career and the 12 other lessons that experience taught me.
